Do I buy the Starlink kit separately?

Yes. You order the Starlink dish and router directly from starlink.com. We provide the professional installation service — site survey, dish positioning, mounting, cable routing and router setup. The hardware purchase and monthly subscription are separate from our installation charge.

What speeds can I expect from Starlink in rural UK?

Typical Starlink speeds in rural UK are 100–250 Mbps download and 20–40 Mbps upload, with latency of 20–50ms. This is significantly faster than rural ADSL or many fixed wireless connections. Performance is best with an unobstructed dish position.

Can Starlink be installed on a flat roof?

Yes. Flat roofs often provide an excellent mounting surface with good northern sky exposure. We also install on pitched roofs, external walls and ground-mounted poles where the site survey identifies the optimal position.

Is Starlink suitable as a primary broadband connection?

Yes, for most uses including home working, video calls, streaming and gaming. Data is unmetered on the standard plan. The main limitation is higher latency than fibre broadband, which matters more for competitive online gaming than for most other uses.

Starlink Installation in Brighton — Everest Aerials & Satellites

Trusted starlink installation engineers serving Brighton. Fully insured, same-day slots available, and every installation or repair covered by our up to 5-year written guarantee. Free written quote, no call-out fee.

Starlink performance depends almost entirely on the dish having a clear, unobstructed view of the northern sky. A poorly sited dish with even partial obstruction can halve throughput and cause frequent outages. Our engineers use the Starlink obstruction app to survey multiple positions before any mounting work begins.

Starlink Installation Cost in Brighton

Starlink hardware is purchased directly from starlink.com (currently from £299 kit + £75/month subscription). Our professional installation service costs from £150, covering the site survey, dish mounting, weatherproof cable entry, router placement and full configuration. We do not supply the Starlink kit itself.

Common Signal & Installation Challenges in Brighton

Whitehawk Hill transmitter, on the eastern edge of the city, provides generally good Freeview coverage — but the South Downs ridge rising behind Brighton creates terrain-induced signal variation in properties higher on the hillside
Brighton's extensive Regency terrace stock, much of it Grade I or Grade II listed, imposes strict planning constraints on aerial and satellite installation — rear and concealed installations are usually the only options
The seafront is a challenging environment for antenna equipment: salt-laden onshore winds accelerate corrosion of mild steel fittings within a single season
Hove properties to the west of the city occasionally fall outside Whitehawk Hill's optimal coverage footprint and benefit from an aerial upgrade or masthead amplifier

Brighton Installation Tips from Our Engineers

Marine-grade stainless steel fixings, UV-stable sealants, and marine-specification coaxial cable should be specified for all properties within half a mile of Brighton seafront
For Regency terrace installations, aerial positioning inside a rear chimney stack or within the parapet is frequently possible and avoids the need for listed building consent
Signal testing from the south slope of the Downs in areas like Woodingdean and Ovingdean is particularly important — terrain-induced signal bounce can affect aerial selection

Local Signal Profile — Brighton

Our engineers verify local transmitter conditions before specifying any equipment for Brighton.

Primary transmitter	Heathfield
Direction from Brighton	north
Distance band	moderate distance
Signal quality	Good

BN1 and BN2 South Downs escarpment properties have excellent aerial elevation; seafront BN3 properties perform well but may see occasional coastal interference

Impact on your installation: The good signal from Heathfield in Brighton means careful specification is needed — our engineers measure input levels at your property before recommending any equipment.

TV Aerial Installation in Brighton

A correctly installed digital aerial is the foundation of reliable Freeview reception. Our engineers carry Ofcom-approved wideband aerials, high-gain models and loft-mounting kits — and always test signal strength before and after installation to confirm full HD channel reception on every multiplex.
Satellite Dish Installation in Brighton

Whether you want Sky Q, Freesat or foreign satellite channels, precise dish alignment is everything. A dish a single degree off true south loses half its signal in poor weather. Our engineers use professional-grade signal meters to align every dish to the exact azimuth and elevation for your satellite — never by eye.
TV Wall Mounting in Brighton

TV wall mounting is not simply bolting a bracket to the wall. Wall type, stud location, cable concealment, HDMI routing and viewing angle all need careful consideration. Our engineers handle every element — leaving a clean, professional result with no visible cables and the screen at the correct height for comfortable viewing.
CCTV Installation in Brighton

A CCTV system is only as effective as its camera placement. Cameras positioned for ease of installation rather than coverage provide an incomplete picture and limited deterrent value. Our engineers assess your property first — identifying entry points, blind spots and the optimal camera positions — before selecting any equipment.
Smart CCTV & Doorbell Cameras in Brighton

Smart video doorbells and outdoor cameras from Ring, Google Nest, Eufy and similar brands are straightforward to buy but often poorly installed. Correct camera angle, a reliable WiFi connection at the installation point, and proper app configuration are all critical for the system to work as advertised.
Aerial & Satellite Repairs in Brighton

Signal faults almost always have a specific, identifiable cause. Our engineers carry calibrated test meters and the most common replacement parts on every van — most faults are diagnosed and resolved in a single visit without the cost of a follow-up appointment.
Multi-Room TV Systems in Brighton

A correctly designed multi-room TV system lets every TV in your home tune to a different Freeview channel simultaneously — without the interference or quality loss of cheap signal splitters. Our engineers specify the correct amplifier for your number of outlets and test signal level at every point before completion.
Wireless Alarm Installation in Brighton

A wireless alarm that generates false activations quickly gets turned off and never used again. Correct PIR sensor placement, appropriate alarm grading and properly configured monitoring make the difference between a system that genuinely protects your property and one that becomes a source of frustration.
Commercial Installation Services in Brighton

Commercial TV distribution, CCTV networks, data cabling and AV systems for hotels, offices, care homes and retail premises require system design, project management and careful scheduling around operational requirements — all of which our commercial team provides as standard.
Soundbar & Home Cinema Setup in Brighton

Most soundbars underperform not because of their quality but because of how they are set up. HDMI ARC settings incorrectly configured, Dolby Atmos passthrough disabled on the TV, subwoofer positioned in a room corner for convenience rather than acoustics — all common, all easy to fix with the right knowledge.
WiFi Optimisation & Mesh Networks in Brighton

WiFi dead spots almost never have anything to do with your broadband speed. The cause is almost always physical — walls, floors, the distance between your router and the devices that need it most. The solution is either a correctly placed access point or a mesh system with nodes positioned to eliminate the specific dead zone, not just placed wherever is convenient.
Smart Home Setup in Brighton

Most smart home frustration comes from devices from different manufacturers that were never designed to work together, placed on the wrong platform, or set up without automations that make the technology genuinely useful. Our engineers untangle these integrations and set up the automations that make a smart home actually smart.
Data Cabling & Structured Networks in Brighton

A wired Ethernet connection delivers consistently lower latency, higher speed and more reliable performance than any WiFi solution. For home working, 4K streaming to multiple rooms, online gaming and network storage, structured data cabling is the most effective long-term infrastructure investment you can make in your home.
Gutter Cleaning & Repairs in Brighton

Blocked gutters are one of the most common and most preventable causes of damp, foundation damage and fascia rot in UK homes. Most properties need gutter cleaning twice a year — once after autumn leaf fall and once in spring — to prevent the water ingress that causes expensive structural repairs.
