About Falcon
Falcon TV Repairs is a team of accredited DStv installers who’ve spent years getting signal, sport and streaming working in homes and businesses right across Gauteng — and building 150+ five-star reviews doing it.
When you book, your job goes to one of our own installers in a branded vehicle — not to whichever subcontractor answered first. We carry the parts that fail most often — LNBs, brackets, cable, connectors and decoders — which is why the large majority of our jobs are finished on the first visit.
We install and repair DStv and OpenView, mount and set up TVs, and we’ll tell you honestly when something isn’t worth repairing. That answer costs us the odd job. We give it anyway.
We install, set up and repair
Services
New installations, signal repairs, extra rooms and TV mounting — one accredited team, one job card, one fixed price.
From a single dish on a townhouse to a full communal DStv system for a complex, a lodge or a sports bar. We design, install, repair and maintain it, and the installer who quotes you is the installer who does the work.

Explore TV repairsThe upside
Same-day installs and repairs are our standard. Most jobs are done and tested while we’re still there — you’re watching by the evening.
The person who quotes you is the person who does the work. No handovers, no “the other guy will call you”.
You get a fixed quote upfront. You approve it before anything happens. Nothing gets added to the invoice afterwards.
Cables clipped, trunked or run inside the wall — not draped across your face-brick. It should look like it came with the house.
Properly sealed connections and a correctly aligned dish mean your signal holds through Highveld wind and rain, not just on installation day.
We’ll tell you when OpenView beats DStv, or when a TV isn’t worth repairing — even when the honest answer earns us less.
Why choose us
Anyone can say “same-day” in an advert. Here’s what we actually do differently — including the part that costs us money.
A lot of the “DStv installers” you find online are lead-selling portals that pass your number to whichever contractor pays for it. You never know who’s coming. With us, the installer who quotes you is the one on your roof, and their name is on the job card.
DStv, OpenView, Extra View, dish alignment and TV mounting are all we do — every day, across Gauteng. That focus is why our signal fixes hold and our installs still look tidy years later.
The hardware has its own warranty. Our guarantee covers our work. If an install we did fails because of how we did it, we come back at our cost.
No “it depends” on the day. You get a clear quote before we start, and the quoted number is the number you pay.
If your 12-year-old TV needs more in parts than a new one costs, we’ll tell you to replace it — even though we don’t sell TVs. It’s the least profitable sentence we say, and the reason our customers phone us again and leave 150+ five-star reviews.

01
Fill in the 30-second form or phone 065 759 9375. New install, no signal, extra room or a TV to mount — describe it in your own words.

03
We look at the job, explain what’s needed in plain language, and hand you a fixed price. You decide. There’s no charge to say no.
04
We do the work, run it up with you watching, show you it’s working, and take our mess with us.

★★★★★
Booked in the morning, dish up and Explora running by early afternoon. The installer showed me the signal readings and tidied every cable. Sport was back on for the weekend.
★★★★★
No signal two days before a big rugby weekend. Falcon came out the same day, found a corroded LNB, replaced it and we were sorted in under an hour. Fair price, no drama.
★★★★★
They added a second decoder and Extra View so the kids stop fighting over the lounge TV. Neat work, explained everything, and the quote didn't change on the invoice.
★★★★★
Wall-mounted a 65-inch with the cables hidden inside the wall and set up the soundbar. Looks like it came with the house. Punctual and professional.
★★★★★
Wanted OpenView instead of a monthly subscription. Falcon installed the dish and decoder and showed my mother how to use it. Friendly and patient.
★★★★★
Second install with them — did our home and then the office. Same installer both times, same standard. This is who I recommend to everyone now.

FAQs
Costs, same-day service, no-signal errors, Extra View and OpenView — the things people actually ask us on the phone.
Send a photo of your dish, decoder or TV on WhatsApp. We can often tell you what's wrong before we get in the van.
WhatsApp a photoA standard DStv installation — dish, LNB, bracket, cabling and decoder setup — starts from an affordable fixed call-out and installation fee, with the exact price depending on the dish size, cable run and whether you need Extra View or extra points. We quote you upfront before any work starts, and the number we quote is the number you pay. Send us your suburb and setup on WhatsApp for a same-day quote.
Yes. Same-day service is our standard across Gauteng for both new installations and repairs, and we manage it the large majority of the time. If we genuinely can’t reach you today, we’ll tell you honestly on the phone and book the earliest slot — usually the next morning.
Almost always, yes. ‘No signal’ errors usually come down to a knocked or misaligned dish, a faulty LNB, water in the connections, or damaged cabling — all of which we carry parts for and repair on the first visit. We find the actual cause rather than guessing, so the fix holds.
Yes. Extra View links a second (or third) decoder to your main account so each room can watch its own channel on a single subscription. We supply and connect the extra decoder, run the cabling neatly, and activate Extra View with you before we leave.
DStv is a monthly subscription service with the widest channel choice; OpenView is a once-off installation with no monthly fee and a smaller channel line-up. We install and repair both. If you’re weighing them up, tell us what you watch and we’ll give you a straight recommendation.
We do — wall mounting for any size TV, smart TV setup, soundbar and home-theatre connection, and neat cable management with the wires hidden. It’s a natural pairing with a DStv install, so many customers book both at once.
Every installation is backed by our workmanship guarantee, in writing. If something we installed fails because of how we did it, we come back and put it right at our cost. Our installers are accredited and experienced, so the vast majority of jobs are done right the first time.
The whole of Gauteng — Johannesburg and the northern suburbs, Pretoria, Centurion, Midrand, Randburg, Roodepoort and across the East Rand including Kempton Park, Boksburg, Benoni, Germiston, Edenvale, Alberton, Springs and Brakpan. If your suburb isn’t listed, phone and ask; it almost certainly still falls inside our patch.
