Hidden cable options
Woodside Gardens is a new-build development in South Broomhill, at South Broomhill, Northumberland, NE65 9YG, by Ascent Homes. The location gives residents convenient access to South Broomhill and surrounding parts of the North East, while offering the practical benefits of a modern newly built home.
For homeowners moving into Woodside 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 South Broomhill 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 smart TV can work perfectly over Wi-Fi while its aerial connection still has no usable terrestrial television signal.
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.
Mounting positions and cable routes are easier to plan before furniture, decorating and room layouts make access more restricted.
Multiple aerial, network or HDMI cables can terminate together without clear labels, making it difficult to know which room each cable serves.
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. Plasterboard stud walls are common in both modern and new-build homes and can normally support a wall-mounted television when the installation is planned correctly.
Where possible, the bracket will be fixed into the studs behind the plasterboard. The correct installation method will depend on the TV size, bracket and construction of the wall.
A professional installation is designed to keep wall disturbance to a minimum. The wall construction is assessed first so the correct fixing method can be used, and the aim is always to leave a neat, secure finish around the television and bracket.
It is sensible to check any relevant builder or developer warranty conditions if you are unsure about alterations to walls. The installation itself should still use fixings and methods appropriate for the construction of the property.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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. Dot and dab walls require different fixings from conventional solid masonry walls. With dot and dab construction, plasterboard is attached to the blockwork using adhesive, leaving a small cavity behind the board.
Specialist fixings can bridge this gap and secure the TV bracket into the solid wall behind it. Using ordinary wall plugs can compress or damage the plasterboard, so identifying the wall construction first is important.
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.
