The short answer
On the East Rand in 2026, a standard DStv installation commonly costs about R800 to R1,500, an Explora about R1,000 to R2,000, and each extra TV point about R350 to R600. The biggest swing factors are the number of TVs and the cable routes, so ask for an itemised quote.
The East Rand is close to where we are based, which keeps travel costs low and makes quick visits easier.

The biggest differences come from the job itself: the decoder, the number of TVs, the roof and the cabling. Travel can add a little. Ask for an itemised quote.
Usually not. They cover labour and basic fittings. The decoder is bought separately.
Some installers charge one. Ask before you book. We explain every charge before work starts.
