Relocations & Reconnections in Yzerfontein

Whether you’ve just moved, or you’re opening the holiday home for the season, we reconnect and re-tune your existing equipment so you’re back on air quickly: no need to buy everything new. We give the dish a health-check and re-align it at the new address, replace any cable or fittings that have perished in the coastal weather, reactivate dormant decoders, and test the lot. Many Yzerfontein owners book us for a season open-up before they arrive and a shut-down when they leave, so the house is always ready and nothing sits exposed and failing while they’re away.

What’s included

Existing equipment health-check
Dish re-alignment after a move
Re-cabling and reconnection
Decoder re-activation
Season open-up and shut-down visits

Who it’s for

People moving home, and holiday-home owners returning for the summer who need everything just working.

Relocation FAQs

I am moving house. Can you move my DStv?
Yes. A relocation is usually cheaper than a brand new installation because you keep your decoder and subscription. We remove the dish at the old address if you want it, and install and align it properly at the new one.
Should I take the old dish with me?
If it is in good condition, yes. If it has been up for years in salt air, the bracket and LNB are often past their best and it is worth replacing them rather than moving a corroded dish.
Do I need to tell DStv I have moved?
Yes, your account address should be updated. We handle the physical installation and signal side, and we will tell you exactly what to update on your account.
Can you do it on moving day?
We can, though it is usually calmer to book it for the day after. Either way, book early: month-end is the busiest time for relocations.
What if the new house has no TV point?
We install one. That is a normal part of the job and we will quote for the cable run before we start.
Do you cover the whole West Coast area?
We cover Yzerfontein and Darling, Grotto Bay and the R27 corridor. If you are moving somewhere just outside that, call 079 754 5527 and ask, because we often can.
