TV aerial & satellite installation in Middlesbrough: Renters vs homeowners

For homeowners:

You’re usually responsible for your own TV aerial or satellite dish. If you live in a leasehold flat, check your building’s management agreement - sometimes dishes aren’t allowed without written permission.

For renters:

If your reception is poor or you need a new aerial, first check your tenancy agreement. In most cases, your landlord is responsible for providing a working aerial or dish, but you may need their sign-off before arranging installation.

Tip: Always get written approval before booking, and keep a copy for your records.
