Antenna installations in Keilor Village
Local TV antenna and wall mounting experts in Keilor Village
Keilor Village is the old centre of Keilor, the stretch of Old Calder Highway and Macedon Street that runs down to the Maribyrnong River. Our technician works right across Keilor, Keilor East, Keilor Downs and Keilor Park, so a call from the village is a short drive, not a trip across town.
Whether it's a new antenna on a gold-rush era cottage, a TV wall mount in a new double-storey build or a signal problem that only shows up when it rains, you get a local technician who turns up when we say, explains the problem in plain English and tests every TV before leaving. All work is fully insured and backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee.
About Keilor Village
Long before the village was built, this stretch of the Maribyrnong River was Wurundjeri country. About 2 km north of the village, where Dry Creek meets the river, is the Keilor archaeological site, one of the most important places in Australia for understanding early Aboriginal life.
The village itself grew up in the 1840s and 1850s at the river crossing on the road from Melbourne to the Mount Alexander goldfields. Thousands of diggers passed through, and the Victorian Heritage Database now lists the Keilor Village Precinct as a state-significant streetscape from that goldfields era. Walk along Macedon Street and you'll see why: the bluestone former court house, the former police station (1863) and the avenue of old pines that lines the Old Calder Highway.
And then there's the Keilor Hotel. A pub has stood on this site since the Galway Arms opened beside the river crossing in 1848, and it has been the Keilor Hotel since 1860. It is the last of the dozen or so hotels that served the Keilor district in the gold rush, and it's still where locals catch up over a counter meal.
Keilor is also footy country. The Keilor Football Club, the Blues, dates back to 1877 and has played in the Essendon District Football League since 1932, with home games at Joe Brown Oval on the Keilor Recreation Reserve. Add Brimbank City Council's parks along the river, and Keilor Village keeps a country-town feel less than 20 km from the CBD.
TV reception in the river valley
Why TV reception in Keilor Village can be tricky
Melbourne's free-to-air TV comes from the transmitters on Mount Dandenong, well to the east. Most of Keilor East and Keilor Downs sits on higher, open ground with a clear line to them. Keilor Village is different: it sits low, down in the Maribyrnong River valley, and homes near the river can fall into a signal shadow behind the valley walls.
- Valley homes need the right antenna, up high. Height and a high-gain antenna, aimed carefully, often make the difference between a picture that holds and one that breaks up.
- Planes over Melbourne Airport. Low aircraft can cause brief picture break-up. A quality antenna on a solid mount keeps it to a minimum.
- Older homes, older cabling. Many village homes still run cable and splitters from decades ago. Old cable loses signal before it ever reaches the TV.
- Heritage streetscape. We take care with where the antenna and cabling sit, so the job is neat and in keeping with the street.
Every job finishes with a signal test on a meter, not just a look at the TV, so you know every channel is coming in strongly before we leave.

Keilor Village questions

My picture breaks up when it rains or when planes go over. Can you fix it?
Usually, yes. In the river valley, a higher position, a better antenna or new cable is often the fix. We test the signal at the antenna and at each TV first, so you only pay for what's needed.
Do you mount TVs on the wall as well?
Yes. We mount TVs on plasterboard, brick and timber, hide the cables where the wall allows, and connect the TV to the antenna before we leave.
