Why Choose DStv Installers in Durandale?
Durandale is a small, established suburb in Roodepoort between Delarey and Ontdekkers Park – mostly 1970s facebrick homes with small stands, mature trees, and communal systems along Ontdekkers Road. That brings 3 specific DStv problems we see daily:
1. Old white RG6 corroded: Original cable from the 70s/90s is brittle, copper blackened, connectors rusted – you get intermittent E48-32, E143, or rain fade even on sunny days. We re-run black RG6 quad shield with true compression F-connectors and weather boots.
2. Tree growth blocking 68.5E: Jacarandas and big oaks planted close to boundary walls now block IS20. Signal looks 0% but dish is fine – needs relocation to garage gable or 3m pole mount, not just turning.
3. Highveld wind moves dishes & communal interference: Lightweight brackets on facebrick loosen, plus some Ontdekkers Road complexes share a communal feed that hasn’t been balanced since DStv moved to SCD2. We anchor properly into brick (not mortar), balance dB, and install filtered Smart LNBs.

DStv Installers Durandale – FAQ
Why does my DStv show E48-32 in Durandale after wind?
Highveld gusts shift small-stand dishes. Plus facebrick plugs loosen over time. We re-peak to 68.5E at 90% and add 38mm storm pole + bracing so it holds. Same-day in Durandale.
Can trees really block my signal in Durandale?
Yes – commonest issue here. Mature trees on 1970s small stands grow into the 37° north-east path to IS20. We either elevate dish on garage gable or use longer pole – we won’t just leave you at 60%.
Do you replace old white RG6 in facebrick homes?
Daily. White cable from the 70s/90s corrodes, shielding fails, you get rain fade. We pull new black quad-shield RG6 with compression connectors and seal entry points waterproof.
Do you service communal systems along Ontdekkers Road?
Yes. Many Durandale blocks share a dish. We balance SCD2 dSCR levels, replace rusted switches, and set filtered LNB so lower units don’t lose signal when top unit uses Explora.
Are you DStv accredited & do you test with a real meter?
Yes – Tech Installations is accredited. Every job tested with Promax HD Ranger+ – we show you STATUS LOCKED 90%, MER 14.2 dB, SAT IS20 68.5E, LNB SCD2 Smart before payment.
