We find the best mounting spot for a clear line of sight to the satellite — away from trees and roof obstacles.
New DSTV Installations Across the Garden Route
Moving into a new home, building a granny flat or kitting out a guesthouse? We install your DSTV dish, LNB, cabling and decoder from scratch — mounted solidly, aligned precisely and tested before we leave.
Who books a new installation
- New homeowners and tenants with no dish on the roof
- Holiday homes and rentals along the coast
- Guesthouses, B&Bs and small businesses
- Complexes and estates needing a tidy, compliant mount
- Anyone replacing an old, rusted or damaged dish
Our process
Mount & cable
Dish goes up on a sturdy bracket and cable is routed neatly to your TV point.
Align & test
We fine-tune the signal with a meter and confirm every channel comes through.
Hand over
Decoder set up and ready — we show you the basics before we go.
What to expect
A property-specific plan
The visit begins with a line-of-sight and cable-route assessment. Roof shape, nearby trees, estate rules and the television position all affect where the dish and cable should go, so the installation is planned around the actual home rather than treated as a standard one-size-fits-all job.
A working system before handover
Once the dish, LNB and cable are in place, the technician checks signal quality at the decoder, confirms the television is on the correct input and tests the available channels. You can expect a neat setup and a short explanation of the main controls before the visit ends.
Common messages and error codes
E48-32
The decoder is not receiving a usable satellite signal. On a new installation this usually points to alignment, an LNB connection or the cable path. We meter-test the complete route instead of repeatedly rebooting the decoder.
E30-4
The decoder is checking or downloading subscription information. We first allow the decoder to finish its setup with a stable signal. If the message remains, the decoder details or account activation may need to be checked.
Built for Garden Route weather
Coastal wind and salty air are hard on dishes. We mount firmly and weatherproof connections so your install keeps working through winter storms.
Neat, not messy
Cables are clipped and routed tidily along walls and eaves — no loose wires dangling across your house.
