However if you want more control of where the wires go, Sky will only surface wire and go the quickest route, as the dish and cable belong to you an independent aerial installer will do what you want BUT get a quote first.

Satellite extension cables kits are readily available on Internet retail sites.
Just look for Satellite Extension cables.
Just bear in mind that you need two cables with the necessary two F connector fittings..
Some come as as a pair or as a twin (shotgun) cable and include the two female F connectors. However some are single cables where you need two.

If the extension leads aren't an option then call Sky to make an appointment - they may well charge though.
