I have recently moved into a new flat and was given permission to have a Sky
dish put on the roof by the freeholder. The first installer came along and said the 'special heights team' would have no problems installing that, but they came along took one look and said "nah mate". They didn't seem very keen to actually go up on the roof and have a look for any suitable spots and I had heard people say that some of the installers will tend to avoid the trickier jobs as the money they get from Sky means it isn't worth their while. So I am not convinced there is no where to put the dish on my roof, but as they are the only 'special heights team' in the area going direct through Sky is no longer an option, what I was curious about was what other options are available to me, are there companies out there that specialise in 'Difficult Installations'? Sky said to speak to Comet or Curry's which I will do but I don't hold out much hope for that. Any thoughts? I really would like to have Sky Plus..... Thanks Gareth |

Thanks Gareth Look in your yellow pages for a CAI approved satellite dealer/installer who is also an authorised SKY agent. He can get you the usual install offer (not the online price) but expect to pay a premium for any non-standard work. Mike C |
