One number. Whole peninsula.

  • All of Cape Town

    City Bowl to Durbanville, Simon's Town to Somerset West.

  • Same-day where we can

    Call and we will tell you honestly what today looks like.

  • Priced before we drive

    You know the number before anyone arrives at your gate.

  • Tested before we leave

    Signal on a meter, cameras live on your own phone.

Two things, done properly

What people phone us about

If one of these sounds like your week, you already know what the job is. Read what we do about it, then call.

DStv & signal

“No signal, error E48-32”
Nine times out of ten the dish has drifted off the satellite, or water has got into the LNB. We re-align on a signal meter and seal it so it stays put.
“Picture freezes when the weather turns”
That is a marginal signal that only just worked on install day. We check dish size, LNB and cable runs, then set it up with headroom for Cape weather.
“I want a second or third TV connected”
Extra View or an additional point off the same dish, with the cable run properly rather than draped through a window.
“We are moving house”
Dish taken down, remounted and re-aligned at the new address, decoder re-paired and tested on every point before we leave.
“The dish has come loose or the bracket has rusted”
Remounted on a sound bracket, bolted into something that will hold, cable clipped back and the entry point sealed.

CCTV & cameras

“My cameras are offline on my phone”
Usually a router change, an app or port setting, or a failed power supply. We find which, fix it, and test it on your handset before we pack up.
“I cannot make out faces at night”
Wrong camera, wrong height, or wrong angle. We re-spec the lens and infrared and re-aim it at the spot that actually matters.
“I want to watch the gate and the driveway”
We walk the property first and mark camera positions with you, then quote. Coverage plan before drilling, every time.
“The recorder is full or has stopped recording”
Storage, overwrite rules and channel settings checked and set so you keep the footage you would actually need.
“Nothing installed yet, starting from scratch”
Full system: cameras, recorder, cabling, power and remote viewing on your phone, planned around your property.

Not on the list? It is still probably something we fix every week.

How a callout runs

No mystery, no waiting all day for someone who might come.

  1. Call or WhatsApp

    Tell us the suburb and what is going wrong. A photo of the dish, the camera or the error on screen saves everyone time.

  2. You get a price first

    We work out what the job needs and tell you what it costs before anyone drives out. No surprise invoice at the door.

  3. We fit it and prove it works

    Signal checked on a meter, cameras tested on your own phone, cabling clipped and tidy. We do not leave a job half-working.

Straight answers

Which areas of Cape Town do you cover?

All of it. City Bowl, Atlantic Seaboard, Southern Suburbs, the South Peninsula, the Northern Suburbs, the Cape Flats and out to Somerset West and Strand. If you are inside greater Cape Town, we will come to you.

How soon can you come out?

Same day where the diary allows, otherwise the next working day. Call or WhatsApp 078 888 8102 and we will tell you honestly what today looks like rather than promising a slot we cannot make.

What will it cost?

Tell us the suburb and what is wrong and we will price the job before anyone drives out. You will know what you are paying before we arrive at your gate.

Do you supply the equipment, or must I buy it?

Either way works. We can supply the dish, decoder, cameras and recorder, or install and set up equipment you have already bought.

Are you MultiChoice or a DStv agent?

No. HD Installations is an independent installation and repair business. We install, align and repair satellite and CCTV equipment. We do not handle subscriptions, accounts or billing, so for anything to do with your DStv account you deal with MultiChoice directly.

Can you install if I am renting?

Yes, as long as your landlord or body corporate is happy with the mounting position. We can install on a non-penetrating or wall-mounted bracket where drilling into the roof is not allowed.

Do you work on business premises as well as homes?

Yes. Shops, offices, guesthouses, complexes and body corporates, as well as houses and flats. Larger sites get a site walk and a written quote first.
