Heaton Quarter is a new-build development in Heaton, at Hartford Street, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE6 5BX, by Keepmoat Homes. The location gives residents convenient access to Heaton and surrounding parts of the North East, while offering the practical benefits of a modern newly built home.
For homeowners moving into Heaton Quarter, planning TV positions, aerial points and cable routes early can help keep rooms tidy and make the most of the new-build finish. TV & Aerial Installer Newcastle can provide TV wall mounting, aerial installation, television setup and tuning, and neat cable management for homes across Heaton and the wider area.
We provide and install quality TV wall brackets suited to your television, wall type and the position you want your screen mounted.
The fixings we use will depend on the construction of your wall, including internal stud walls, solid brickwork and other common wall types.
Before any drilling begins, we will discuss the best position for your TV, taking viewing height, room layout and cable access into account so the finished installation looks neat and secure.
If you want a clean, uncluttered finish, we can look at suitable options for hiding the cables connected to your wall-mounted TV.
With 23 years’ experience installing TVs, we have a range of ways to route and conceal cables depending on the construction of the wall and the equipment being connected.
We will discuss the available options with you during the quotation process and recommend a practical solution that keeps the installation tidy while still allowing access where needed.
We install TV aerials and set up reliable Freeview reception for new build properties.
Whether your home has been pre-wired or needs a complete aerial system installed, we can connect and configure everything ready for use.
We can also check signal strength, aerial positioning and existing cabling to make sure your new home has a strong, dependable TV signal from day one.

A weak or poorly distributed signal can cause pixelation, missing channels or intermittent reception even when some services appear normal.
Modern large-screen televisions need the wall structure, bracket rating and fixing points checked before installation.
External or internal cabling may need rerouting so the finished installation looks neat and follows a practical route to the TV system.
Placing the screen around fireplaces, furniture or existing sockets can push it higher than the most comfortable viewing position.
A television can sometimes store channels from a weaker transmitter, leading to unreliable reception or the wrong regional services.
A completed aerial installation may only feed the original rooms, so adding another TV can require an extra point or changes to the distribution setup.
Yes. A TV can usually be mounted safely on a hollow wall, but the correct fixings and installation method are essential. The wall construction, TV weight, bracket type and position of the wall studs all need to be assessed before installation.
For larger or heavier televisions, additional reinforcement or fixing directly into the structural studs may be required. TV & Aerial Installer Newcastle can inspect the wall and recommend the safest mounting method before fitting the TV.
Yes. TVs can be mounted safely on plasterboard walls when the correct installation method and fixings are used. We assess the wall before installation and determine the safest way to support the weight of your TV and bracket.
Yes. TV mounting and aerial work can be completed once you have access to the property and the relevant rooms and electrical points are available. Arranging the installation early means your televisions can be ready to use when you move in.
Yes. We can install TVs in living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, home offices and other suitable rooms. Multiple installations can be completed during the same visit where required.
The ideal height depends on your seating position, television size and the layout of the room. We can help position the TV at a comfortable viewing height rather than simply mounting it as high as possible on the wall.
Yes. We provide TV aerial installation for new build homes across Newcastle and Northumberland. The best aerial position will depend on the property, local signal conditions and the construction of the home.
A fitted TV socket does not necessarily mean that a working aerial has been connected. There may also be an issue with internal cabling, connections, signal strength or the aerial itself. We can test the system and identify where the problem is.
Yes. Pixelation, channels disappearing or intermittent signal problems can be caused by poor signal strength, damaged connections, unsuitable equipment or aerial positioning. We can test the signal and recommend the appropriate solution.
Not always. Some new build properties have TV points installed but may not have a completed or correctly connected aerial system. We can test the existing installation and identify what is required to receive a reliable television signal.
Yes. A properly designed aerial distribution system can supply multiple TV points around the home. The number of rooms, cable runs and available signal level determine whether additional distribution equipment is required.
Call Mick on 07886 732555 or send an enquiry through the website with your development, property location and details of the work required. With 23 years of experience, Mick can advise on the most suitable setup for your new home.
Yes. This is a common concern, particularly with larger televisions and plasterboard walls.
Before installation, the wall construction and proposed mounting position can be assessed along with the weight of the television and bracket. The appropriate mounting method can then be chosen before any installation work begins.
