Highlights
"We had a small fire which burnt our Internet cables on the outside of the house virgin could not send an engineer for nearly 3 weeks. We needed the internet as we had to complete forms on line to enter Canada. I rang Matthew on the Saturday and he was away till the Monday evening but assured us he would be with us on the Tuesday. True to his word he arrived and repaired the damage within the hour. We have used Matthew for several years now and the service we have received has been first-class. We would have no hesitation in recommending him or using him in the future."

Arrived on time, Matt is a lovely friendly guy, diagnosed the problem straight away, gave me a quote which I thought was very reasonable and the work was done in less than 15 minutes. I would highly recommend ??
I supplied some of the material as it is a different antenna and coax to that for a TV, however OB Aerials supplied the mounting equipment and installed it. And they did a great job! Nice and neat job. Made sure they were safe when they did the install and got through the job. So although being charged by the hour, they kept going for the time they were on site Recommended local supplier - reliable, their price was great and the service was brilliant. I will be using them again for my freeview aerial!
