Diagnosis First
Getting Your Satellite Signal Working Again
Satellite reception faults can have several different causes, and proper diagnosis should always come before assuming an entirely new installation is required. We test your system to find the actual cause of the fault before recommending any work.
- Dish movement or misalignment
- Damaged or loose cabling
- Connector faults
- Weather exposure
- Damaged dish or mounting
- LNB or system component faults where appropriate
- Line-of-sight changes or new obstructions
Common Problems
Does This Sound Like Your Satellite Fault?
No Satellite Signal
Your system reports no signal at all, or satellite channels have stopped working completely.
Picture Breakup / Pixelation
The picture freezes, breaks into blocks or the sound cuts out intermittently.
Missing Channels
Some channels have disappeared or won't tune in, while others still work normally.
Dish Alignment Problems
The dish has moved out of position, often after wind or accidental contact.
Damaged Dish or Mounting
The dish, arm or wall bracket shows visible damage, rust or looseness.
Cabling / Connection Faults
Exposed, damaged or corroded cabling and connectors affecting reception.
What a Satellite Repair May Involve
The Work Depends on the Fault Found
Not every repair requires every step below. The work involved depends entirely on what our diagnosis finds, and this is confirmed with you as part of your free quote.
- Signal testing
- Dish inspection
- Alignment correction
- Mounting and bracket checks
- Cable and connector inspection
- Cable and connector repair where required
- LNB and system component assessment where relevant
- Final reception testing
Weather & Storm Damage
Wind and weather can sometimes affect dish alignment, mounting, exposed cabling and connectors. If a recent storm has coincided with your satellite fault, this is one of the first things we check during diagnosis.
Not Sure Which You Need?
Repair, or a New Installation?
When a Repair May Be Enough
Faults such as dish misalignment, damaged cabling, loose connectors or a repairable mounting or system fault can often be fixed without needing a whole new setup.
When a New Dish or Installation May Make More Sense
Where equipment is badly damaged, unsuitable for your property or no longer practical to repair, a new installation may be the more sensible option. Visit our satellite installation page for more detail.

Repairing an Existing Freesat Setup
Reception faults affecting an existing Freesat setup can sometimes involve the dish, alignment, cabling, connections or associated reception equipment. If you're looking for a brand new Freesat installation rather than a repair, visit our Freesat installation page.
