Move my main sky box

Hi, I'm looking to move my main sky box to a different room so we aren't wasting using a mini box in our new front room. Can anyone suggest a phone number or how easy it is to connect a block to extend the cable and whether it will affect the signal strength? 
Thanks 

Brett

Hi @Hammertime56 

If your new Box position is on an outside wall and readily accessible to the Satellite dish then it's probably best to contact Sky to reinstall a new cable.  This would cost in the region of £65.

If you want to extend the dish cabkes internally then Extension cables of any various lengths are readily available online. These shouldn't greatly affect your satellite signal strength.

Thanks Oldfella, it would be an external cable so I'll contact Sky and book an engineer 👍
