Cutting cable bills, tapping into free local channels, and boosting picture quality all start with a professionally installed TV antenna. Yet homeowners often underestimate the construction skills required to mount equipment, run coax through finished walls, and weatherproof rooftop fixtures. CountBricks brings the precision of AI-generated estimates and blueprint takeoffs to every television antenna installation, giving residential clients clarity on cost, timeline, and materials before a single bracket is drilled.
• Free access to major networks in HD without monthly fees
• Increased channel selection as local stations add sub-channels
• Reliability during internet outages or streaming service disruptions
• Future-proofing for ATSC 3.0 “NextGen TV” broadcasts
CountBricks clients frequently pair antenna projects with whole-home low-voltage upgrades for a seamless entertainment package. Explore bundled services at CountBricks.com/services.
1. Roof Type and Pitch
Steep tile roofs raise labor time and require specialty fasteners. CountBricks AI adjusts labor coefficients automatically once roof data is captured through a quick voice Q&A.
2. Structure Height
Single-story homes allow ladder work, while multistory residences may need safety harnesses or temporary scaffolding. The CountBricks cost engine selects the appropriate task line items in real time.
3. Distance to TV Points
Longer coax runs mean more RG-6, wall plates, and signal amplifiers. CountBricks blueprint takeoffs calculate linear footage directly from PDFs or photos, eliminating guesswork.
4. Obstruction Mapping
Nearby trees or surrounding buildings can affect antenna height requirements. During the on-site inspection, technicians dictate obstruction notes into a mobile device; CountBricks converts the speech to scope items instantly.
• Outdoor multi-directional HDTV antenna
• Mast (5–10 ft galvanized steel)
• Roof-rated mounting bracket with lag bolts
• RG-6 Quad Shield coaxial cable
• Weatherproof compression fittings
• Ground block and 10 AWG copper ground wire
• Inline low-noise amplifier (when signal loss exceeds 3 dB)
• Interior wall plates and keystone inserts
With CountBricks, every component is priced at current supplier rates pulled into the estimate at the moment of creation.
1. Site Survey – Measure signal strength, confirm line-of-sight, document cable pathways.
2. Safety Setup – Deploy roof anchors, harnesses, and fall-protection gear where required.
3. Mounting the Mast – Secure bracket to rafters or wall studs; apply sealant around penetrations.
4. Antenna Alignment – Orient toward broadcast towers using a digital meter; tighten all hardware.
5. Cable Routing – Run RG-6 through attic or exterior conduit; staple at 24 in. intervals.
6. Grounding – Bond mast and coax to house electrical ground per NEC requirements.
7. Interior Termination – Install wall plate behind TV, crimp compression connector, attach patch cable.
8. Signal Verification – Scan channels, record dB levels, and fine-tune amplifier gain if installed.
9. Client Walkthrough – Demonstrate channel lineup, explain maintenance, and provide warranty packet.

When the Ramirez family in Summerlin faced recurring internet outages, they turned to CountBricks for a reliable backup to their streaming services. During a 15-minute voice consultation, our estimator captured roof pitch, attic access points, and desired TV locations. The AI engine generated a 14-line proposal that included:
• 8 ft mast with multi-directional antenna
• 120 ft of RG-6 Quad Shield coax
• Low-noise inline amplifier
• Four interior wall plate terminations
Total project cost: $1,275, including permit filing and disposal of an old satellite dish. The family approved the digital quote on CountBricks.com/portal, triggering automatic procurement orders. Installation day saw a three-person crew complete the job in 5.5 hours—exactly the labor time predicted by the software.
• 42 OTA channels received, average signal strength 85 dBµV
• Zero pixelation events logged over 30 days
• Internet data usage dropped by 28 %
1. Pre-approve scope changes: CountBricks’ portal lets you OK amplifier upgrades instantly if a weak signal is discovered.
2. Combine tasks: Adding satellite dish removal saved the Ramirez family $150 in ladder labor.
3. Think long term: We pulled an extra conduit run for future outdoor security cameras at minimal additional cost.
