Hidden cable options
Monkton Gardens is a new-build development in Hebburn, at Swan Close, Hebburn, Tyne and Wear, NE31 2FL, by Barratt Homes. The location gives residents convenient access to Hebburn and surrounding parts of the North East, while offering the practical benefits of a modern newly built home.
For homeowners moving into Monkton Gardens, 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 Hebburn 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.

Bedrooms, kitchens and family rooms may need extra points once you decide how the rooms will actually be used.
A finished media wall can make installation harder if suitable structural support was not included where the television needs to be mounted.
Different TV points can have different signal levels because of cabling, splitters, terminations or how the distribution system has been connected.
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.
A weak or poorly distributed signal can cause pixelation, missing channels or intermittent reception even when some services appear normal.
Studs, insulation, noggins and other services inside new build walls can affect where low-voltage cables can be concealed.
In many properties, yes, but the wall construction, fireplace type, heat output and available fixing points need to be considered first. We can assess the proposed position and advise whether it is suitable.
Yes. Once you have legal access to the property and the relevant rooms are ready, TV wall mounting and aerial work can usually be arranged without waiting until every box has been unpacked.
Often, yes. Where the wall construction and cable route allow it, low-voltage TV cables can be concealed for a cleaner finish. If concealed routing is not practical, discreet surface cable management can be used instead.
Yes. We regularly install TVs in new build properties and can securely mount your television in the best position for the room. We take the wall construction into account before choosing the correct fixings and mounting method.
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.
The price depends on the work required, including the television size, bracket type, wall construction, cable management and whether any aerial or additional TV point work is needed. Contact us with details of your new build property and the installation you require for a quotation.
Yes. Testing the existing signal helps identify whether the problem is the aerial, cabling, connections, distribution equipment or local signal level. A replacement aerial should only be recommended when the tests show it is needed.
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.
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.
Dot and dab walls are particularly common in newer UK homes. They normally consist of plasterboard fixed over blockwork with adhesive rather than timber studs.
The wall may sound hollow in certain areas when tapped, but this alone does not confirm the construction. An installer can check the wall before drilling and choose the correct fixings for the TV bracket.
Yes. Depending on the property layout and the existing aerial system, a new TV point can often be added to a bedroom, kitchen, office or other suitable room.
You can supply your own suitable TV bracket, or we can advise on the type of bracket required for your television and installation. Fixed, tilting and full-motion brackets can all be installed depending on the room and viewing position.
