TV aerial services in Waltham Forest: Homeowners vs renters

For homeowners:

You’re responsible for aerial and satellite equipment. That includes repairs, upgrades or removing old systems. If you’re adding Freeview or switching to Freesat, you may need new equipment or extra cabling, especially in older properties.

For renters:

Always check your tenancy agreement first. If the aerial is faulty or missing, speak to your landlord or letting agent before booking a repair. Some landlords may prefer to use their own contractor or require approval before work starts.
