Sky and Sky Q signal problems solved quickly
If you are seeing an error message that your Sky box isn't getting a satellite signal it can be very frustrating. This error often indicates that there is a problem with your Sky cabling, perhaps due to corrosion or just wear and tear. Many houses in Fair Hill are still using old cable that was not replaced by Sky.
We use professional diagnostic equipment and satellite meters that can locate the problem fast enabling us to repair the problem there and then and we offer a same day repair service that will resolve this issue.
External insulation and Sky satellite dishes
As external insulation material becomes more popular it can present challenges when attaching fixtures for Sky satellite dishes. A task we regularly perform for our customers in Cork is to remove the existing Sky dish, and re-attach it after the external insulation has been installed. We always ensure that the brackets and fixtures we attach are safely and neatly installed and left in a tidy state.
Give us a call on 087 269 1215 / 021 487 2817 for help with installations on externally insulated homes.
Sky Q installation and upgrades in Cork
Sky brought Sky Q to the Irish market in 2015 and since then it has grown in popularity with their customers. Unlike previous digiboxes, which all required Universal LNB's, the Q box is supplied with two co-axial cables running to a wideband LNB. One cable is used for vertical frequencies and the other is for horizontal.
If you are an existing Sky customer and you'd like to change to Sky Q, your existing LNB must be replaced with a wideband or a hybrid type. We are very familiar with upgrading existing Sky customers' equipment to Sky Q in Fair Hill and Cork City, call us today to talk about your upgrade options.

Sky+ and Sky+HD upgrades and repairs
Sky+HD boxes have two satellite tuners enabling the user to watch one channel while recording another. The two satellite signals are usually supplied from a Quad or Octo universal LNB. A HDMI cable is then used to connect the digibox to the customer’s television set.
The Sky+HD box replaced the standard and white Sky+ boxes from 2011 onwards and they are the most common set top box used throughout Ireland. We can repair, replace and re-tune Sky+HD boxes in Fair Hill whenever needed.
Give us a call on 087 269 1215 / 021 487 2817 to find out more about Sky+HD repairs and installation.
