Sky TV Installations

Professional Sky TV Installations by Qualified Engineers

Choose from different options. We are here to make those options easier. We offer free advice and a full consultation service to establish exactly what is best for you. Do you have an apartment where it is impossible to have a dish on the roof and you only have a small terrace? A 1.2 metre dish would be perfect for this situation. Maybe you are renting in Spain while looking for a property of your own to buy, eventually needing to move your equipment. No problem, we offer a moving house service where we take your dish, Digibox, television away and then reinstall everything in your new property.

Maybe you feel it is time to have Sky TV in Spain and/or Freesat completely wired throughout your house leaving you free to watch TV in every room. Again this is no problem, just call us for a no obligation quote. All new apartments, townhouses, villas have cable hidden inside the cavity walls. We are able to run new cable or use the existing network so that you do not have any unsightly wires on show in your property.

Apartments, Townhouses, Villas and Community Systems

Whatever type of property you live in, we cover every type of installation, from a 2 bedroomed apartment to a complete community system. We service and maintain community systems in Los Arqueros, benahavis, la Mairena in Elviria and many individual community's from Nerja to Algeciras, correcting previous installation problems and installing new equipment and cabling to clients apartments and townhouses. We also have completed 1000's of Sky/Freesat installations in clients private villa's and country houses. From a small country finca in Alhaurin to a large multi room system in sierra blanca or la Zagaleta in Marbella, there is not a problem that we have not solved, not a installation that we could not complete. The word can't does not exist in the sky doctors dictionary.

IPTV Systems

With the impending loss of some Freesat channels from the Astra 28.2 satellite there is no better time to future proof your channels with an IPTV (Internet Protocol Television system). We have two systems that we are running which we have over the last 6 months tested thoroughly to ensure the products work efficiently, the picture quality, the speed of channel change, the ease of use, the channel options so you don't have to. You will need an ADSL/Broadband connection which we can arrange for you, a minimum of 2mb of download speed and of course, the sky doctors to carry out your installation. There are many providers springing up with IPTV systems at present which again, we have researched and checked the quality of equipment used. 'Beware, not all of them are good!' The usual terminology applies here of 'buy cheap, buy twice'. Trust in us to advise and install your new IPTV system as you can be guaranteed that all products have been meticulously tested and checked. This is the future for viewing your television channels particularly on the Costa del Sol and is an excellent compliment or replacement to your Sky or Freesat system.

Sky HD and 3D

We have supplied and installed 1000's of Sky HD systems in Andalucía to the highest of standards. The resonance of picture is up to 5 X clearer than a standard receiver and with the benefit of having an optical output, if you have the correct home entertainment equipment, the quality of sound will blow you away. Sky has honed their HD/3D TV decoder over the years and now produce a quality piece of equipment with excellent clarity and a superb and easy to use system for recording. It’s so simple a child can pause/rewind/record 100's of hours of vibrant HD quality television. Remember to use The Sky Doctors for supplying and fitting your equipment. We consult with you prior to installation, advise where we will site the dish, where you would like the cables to run, whether we can hide them in internal conduit as let's face it, we all hate seeing cables in our house. If you have a communal satellite system our Spanish speaking technicians will liaise with the president or administrators of your urbanisation to ease the process. Either contact us or request a call back to discuss your needs, as always we endeavour to give you advise and help at all times.

Sky HD & Multiroom

Multiroom may be installed in various formats. Either a centralised receiver that can link up to a maximum of eight rooms via a global link system. This means that you may view and change the same channel in any of the rooms with use of coax cable. Alternatively we can install the same system over cat 5 cable to give you HD quality in all rooms although this can be expensive and bear in mind, if your television is under 32", this will not really make a great deal of difference. You can also have a separate set top box in every room of your property, with either a 2/4/8 way LNB (low noise block down converter) on your satellite dish or for communities, a multi switch that would give you extra ports for your apartment giving you the scope for additional boxes.

You can either have a subscription for the additional boxes separately or with Sky multi room you will be paying £10.25 a month for each extra box. Please bear in mind that the extra boxes are supposed to be attached to a UK telephone line and Sky do periodically test this. If they discover that your additional box isn't connected then they may charge you extra for your multi room subscriptions. You can also use Sky or Freesat decoder's for multi room without a subscription enabling all of your family to watch all the Freesat channels on offer independently in different rooms in your property.

Freesat and Freesat + HD

Freesat channels as we know them will be changing in the coming months on the Costa del Sol due to weakening of the satellite beam outside of the UK. You are still however able to receive a varied mix of UK Freesat channels so if you are an infrequent visitor, have a holiday home or are renting for a short term; this is still a viable option for you. What we would suggest is to contact us before you have decided on having a Freesat installation so we can run through the various options open to you. This is so you can make a considered and informed decision. All the latest information will be posted to our Facebook page as it is the quickest format that we can use to update you with the latest events. So please like us on Facebook .
