Why choose Prime Installers
DStv Stream & Internet Setup, done to the standard
Satellite work rewards discipline, and almost all of it is invisible on installation day — every dish shows a picture when the sky is clear. What separates an installation that lasts from one that needs a callout every winter is the alignment being peaked on a meter rather than aimed by eye, the connectors being compression-fitted and sealed, the bracket going into solid brick rather than a mortar joint, and the dish being the right size for your area's satellite footprint.
Every DStv Stream & Internet Setup job we complete is tested before we call it done — signal quality measured and shown to you, every channel checked, the remote programmed to your TV — and covered by our 12-month workmanship warranty. The quote you approve before work starts is the invoice you get after it.
- Survey and fixed quote before anything is fixed to your property
- Aligned on a signal meter, so you have rain margin rather than just a picture
- Compression-fitted, weather-sealed connectors and a drip loop at the LNB
- Common parts on the van — most jobs finish in a single visit
- Free phone triage — remote pairings, resets and entitlement refreshes cost you nothing
- 12-month workmanship warranty on every job
Common call-outs
Problems this service solves
Recognise any of these? Most are single-visit fixes, quoted before we start — and a few are free phone advice.
E48-32 / no signal
Names your smart card, but usually the dish, LNB or a corroded connector. We measure at the decoder before condemning anything.
Breaks up in the rain
Means no signal margin — alignment, a tired LNB, poor connectors, or a dish too small for your area's footprint.
Stopped after a storm
The dish has moved. Realigning is the easy half; fixing the mount that let it move is what stops the repeat.
Extra View won't work
Almost always a splitter doing a multiswitch's job. Independent viewing needs a head-end that genuinely supports it.
Every TV out at once
Diagnostic in itself — individual rooms can't fail together. It's the shared head-end, usually the multiswitch power supply.
Decoder on, screen black
An HDMI problem, not a satellite one. Often the input, the handshake order, or a soundbar in the chain.
Process
How DStv Stream & Internet Setup works with us
Book online or call
Tell us what's on screen, and whether it affects one TV or all of them. A WhatsApp photo of the dish or the error saves a whole conversation.
We survey, then quote
Signal reading, line of sight, mounting substrate, cable route. Simple things get solved on the phone, free.
Fixed price before work
Itemised, with the reasoning. Anything extra found mid-job gets quoted separately — it doesn't appear on the bill.
12-month warranty
Signal quality measured and shown to you, every channel checked, remote programmed to your TV. If our workmanship fails, we return free.

Prime Installers is an independent installation and repair business — not MultiChoice, not an accredited agent, and not affiliated with any manufacturer. We install and repair the hardware; subscriptions, smart cards and account activations are handled by the broadcaster. We'll always tell you honestly when your problem is an account matter that no installer can fix, rather than charging for a callout to deliver the news.
