Unsuitable mounting on thatch
Fixings through thatch can create damage and leaks, so an alternative solid mounting point is needed.

The Sedgefield problem: nowhere safe to mount the dish
You can't bolt a dish into thatch, and poorly placed wall mounts on older homes often loosen, sag and drift off the satellite. The result is a signal that slowly fades or drops out when the wind picks up.
A safe Sedgefield installation starts with the building, not the dish. We consider thatch, timber fascia, older brickwork and vegetation before selecting a wall or pole position. The aim is a secure fixing, clear satellite view and cable route that does not compromise the roof.

Common DSTV problems in Sedgefield
Loose brackets on older walls
Ageing masonry or light fixings allow small movements that reduce signal quality.
Vegetation around lakeside homes
Growing trees can gradually obstruct a dish that worked correctly when first installed.
- Choose a solid wall, fascia or ground-pole mount that keeps the thatch untouched
- Use heavy-duty brackets and proper anchors for older brickwork
- Route cable neatly without drilling through thatch
- Align precisely and lock everything down against wind
