Gives the industry a bad name
Poor workmanship
Hires sub contractors to rip people off
Does not offer discount to pensioners or seniors
And if something is wrong they always suggest a new antenna which means more money down the drain
They say they are local in every suburb but tbh they aren’t

Dishonest and Unproffessional
I called these guys up for help with fixing my broken TV, told them the problem (screen would just black out sometimes), they told me they could fix it and will charge me $120. They then send an elderly man to come collect it, and only when this guy drafted my receipt did I find out he was a subcontractor with another company "peake tv". Now this guy was extremely unproffesional, he had the TV 2 weeks and didn't say a word (he probably never touched it all during this time) and only returned it after calling/messaging him couple of times claimi...Read more
ng it was fixed. He charged me an extra $60 for "parts" (something AHS never mentioned when I called them) and left. I switched on the TV after he left only to find out it was still doing the same thing, and he was ignoring my messages/calls for days on end aftwerwards. He finally came to pick the TV up again after I pressured AHS to contact him, it was all for nothing though as just sat on the TV for another 2weeks without saying anything, now he is going to bring it back broken and I'm not going to receive a full refund, AHS are refusing to be accountable for anything, even though I called THEM for help, shocking service.

Disappointing
I used their services 12 months ago and was happy. This time I was pleased they could help the next day to look at a faulty ethernet point. However after testing claimed it was not the point or the modem but somehow it was all working again after about ten min and minimal work required. For this 15 min if that $120. that's $480 an hr. Shop around and enquire about their callout fee and not be fooled by the trick adverts. I'd hoped they would review the fee but no.

Please beware of these cowboys! call at least 2 other companies before deciding!
We were looking for some new tradespeople and found these guys over the internet. The person seem helpful over the Internet so we decided to use them. However once they get their call out fee, that is when they will start over charging you. They charged close to $500 to change 2 hinges for an oven!!! They could not even let me know the cost price of the hinges. BUYER BEWARE. Exorbitant prices to fix anything. Look at the rest of the reviews. They don't deserved to be still running. Many other reliable and honest tradespeople out there.

TV Antenna Installation
I had my TV antenna relocated. They use inferior products "no gaps" - immediate leak in my kitchen ceiling (under antenna). I tried to speak to them and they slammed the phone down in my ear. Shocking company, never use.

Incompetent and Un-Remorseful
Prompt initial attenadance but technician made a rookie error in not closing off the circuit by simply not capping two exposed telephone wires leaving us with no internet. Telstra technician diagnosed the problem but Andrews couldn’t attend to fix their stuff up for days, so I got someone else in. No refund and worst of all no empathy, acceptance of responsibility, remorse or apology. I’ve since heard more stories of woe with this mob, use Paul of Jim’s Antennas instead, very professional.

Expensive
I got them out to get my new aerial that we put up, working. No he says, that's a crap one. Next minute hes got a new one of theirs on there, without asking if I wanted to go ahead. Also needing all the bells and whistles as well. So the job I was expecting $150. Turned into $510. Definitely will never recommend.

I was lied to & ripped off
I snicked an outdour extension cord using the hedge trimmer on Easter Sunday and the power went out to 3/4 of my house. Had to wait until Tuesday for an electrician. [name removed] from Andrews Home Services turned up. He told me the extension cord could not be repaired, which I had my doubts about and he would get rid of it for me. I heard him say twice to his apprentice "make sure you put that cord in the car". Hmmm?
I asked [name removed] to replace 2 light covers which I supplied and asked for a wired in fire detector while he was on site....Read more

TV Antenna Technician lied and all of them rude and arrogant
I had TV Antennas Australia (trading as Andrew's Home Services) mount a TV and install an antenna in my rental property for my tenant on Friday 9/2/18. He “checked” the reception and I told him I wanted it installed in the ceiling not on a the actual roof. He tried to talk me out of it because it was easier, I stood my ground and paid him over the phone with my credit card. They had to come back Thursday 15/2/18 because of bad reception. The installer told me I need to install it on the roof and I had to repeat it at least 15 times I didn’t ...Read more
want it on the roof and I paid for a working antenna in the ceiling, after a lengthy discussion he said it would check the cables and move it around but that it should be installed on the roof, to which I replied I was not having this discussion again. Rang the office and was told the owner\manager would not be in the office until tomorrow, explained again the issue and got an attitude and “the technician is a star” and it need to go on the roof. Again I said that is not what I paid for and if it wasn’t going to work in the ceiling they shouldn’t have taken my money. Then I suddenly get told that the manager “has just walked in” and would call me back and hung up without taking my number. Manager rang me after getting my number from the tenant, same merry go round. Repeated myself again, this time the manager accused me of lying about wanting it installed in the ceiling to which I replied that you how could I be lying if it’s installed in the ceiling, it’s not like I got on the roof and took it down and put it in the ceiling myself. I then repeated that if they could not install it as required to refund me the antenna costs as they have not install what I wanted and I would get it done by someone who could. He refused and said they were trying to give me a solution again which is other that what I actually bought! I advised I would report this to Consumer Protection which I have. BE CAREFUL, promise you they can do what you want and then deliver what they want!Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

New antenna
I called on the Friday arvo, booked in for the following day, AL arrived on time and fitted a new antenna, will probably use them again to wall mount our TV’s. Professional, maybe not the cheapest around but you get what you pay for nowadays. I’m confident our antenna will last the distance.

Definitely a dodge job
His attitude was terrible not to mention arriving 2hrs late. Quote was double what others wanted. Would not recommend. Shop around for an honest tradesman.

Shocking
I had got a phone quote for $220- $240 for a job consisting of installing a Chandelier and 2 pendant lights. When technician came he didn't have the required part and asked to come back on Monday to finish the job, I said OK, then he asked me to pay $100 for the 20mn, I said I was given a quote for the job and not a charge per hour, plus not my fault he didn't have the required material. I said I will pay the amount when he finishes the job on Monday.
He got angry, threatened to cut off my power, would not leave when I asked him to, and banged the door with his ladder, broke, after verbally abusing me.
I am shocked of such aggressive unacceptable behavior
I feel traumatized and insulted

Highly NOT recommend to use them, Incapability of service and irresponsible post-service response
A simple phone cable problem which could not be solved by their visit. The service charged me $99 with giving an incorrect diagnosis and nothing was done. Had to call in another technician who had solved the cabling in few minutes. I would really doubt the capability of their cabling technicians. Tried to get refund for their failed service, but their response is very irresponsible. Should have looked this website if I was smarter.

Would have been cheaper to have a lawyer do the job
Called this service in response to an ad in the local paper. I knew what the fault was, a dodgy wire behind a fuse. Guy arrived about 2 hours late and replaced the wire. Took 10min. Tried to talk me into a new fuse box and then a re-wire. Then gave me a bill for $164. I was ill suffering the flu otherwise I may have argued. Lesson learnt, should have looked on this site first.
This business is called TV Antennas Trading as Andrews Home Service.

Not recommend to use them! Bad service!
Wish I had found this webpage before. Called for a quote for my aunty's air condition as it is not cold anymore. A guy came and checked and told her that she needs an air cond as her Fujitsu (10 years old) is not worth repairing. New one plus installation will cost $2400. After removing and installing the new air cond, they left loose bricks and big holes on the wall. Told my aunty that is not their problems as it was there before from previous installation. They said they are electrician and not brickie so must ring office for another quote to fix the problem. Would not recommend using them again.

Tv Antenna Technician lied to me and tried to con me.
I asked Tv Antennas Australia (trading as Andrew's Home Services) to come and look at the problem with my TV aerial as I wasn't getting all the channels properly. A technician - [name removed] came out to review the situation and give me a quote. He checked the cable through the back of the TV and checked the cable from the wall output with his meter and had a look from the ground at my antennae and said that I didn't have enough reception and that I needed a new antenna because the old one is bent. Well, as I'm renting I had to go through the...Read more
landlord and they sent a different company out. The technician from a different company said that there is nothing wrong with the antenna and that having a bent antenna wouldn't be the problem. He said he's seen antenna's hanging off the roof that work well. All I needed was to replace the ends of the TV cable and then it worked perfectly. I can't believe [name removed] lied like that just so that he could earn more money by installing a new antenna. What a con. He's giving Andrew's Home Services a bad reputation.Similar opinion?
