I spoke to Craig before purchasing the antenna on Amazon and he was very helpful in helping me identify our needs. There was a longer wait to get an installation date than with the others but I chose to go with Bridged because of Craig's helpfulness on the front end.
Money-wise, I have rarely been so happy to write a check for so much money. We really got a good value and experience. Bridged bills hourly rather than a flat fee - I wanted someone who would take the time to do things right rather than rush through the job so that was attractive to me. Craig was too low on the estimate, but with the discounts for Angie's list subscribers, the bottom line was in the same range as their competitor's estimates. They did not ding me for small parts that they had on their truck when they were needed on the fly - no nickel and diming.
On installation day, Craig and Tyson arrived and were friendly and professional. Several trips were made up to the attic to get the channels we wanted. My cat never had a more fun day than watching all the activity. The two worked efficiently and well together. In addition to the requested tasks, they cleaned up the extraneous wires left by more than a decade of cable companies. Overall, a pleasure to have them in the house.
I did not have the correct length HDMI cables on hand for the wall mount. They tied the cables up neatly until the cables arrived and promised to come back and string them through when the cables arrive. Will update to confirm after that happens. Based on my experience so far, I am sure they'll keep their promises.

He quoted a price and proceeded to repair and replace the damaged parts right on our living room floor, completing the task in about 15-20 minutes. We plugged it in, tested that it functioned again, and then struggled for another 20 minutes to get the TV back on its mount above our fireplace. Our TV was in a tight spot and hard to take down and put back up again. It actually took us longer to do that than the actual repair.

TV Antenna Equipment Service reviews from real Angi homeowners in Kalama, WA

Carlos installed my TV wall mount for my 65in LED TV. He knew what he was doing and did it right. I asked numerous questions and he was always responding very pleasantly. He did a very quick and thorough job. I would use this company again for any future home theater jobs.

FAQs for tv antenna equipment service projects in Kalama, WA
If your TV antenna is good quality and was installed by a professional, you can expect it to last between 10 and 20 years without needing repair or replacement. This can vary based on your geographic location, weather conditions, and antenna location.
TV antennas should be replaced if it’s been bent or physically damaged. It is possible that these can still be repaired. However, the repair won’t be as superior as a repair on a non-damaged antenna. Since repairing an antenna is typically less expensive than replacing it by at least $100, it’s worth trying to save your existing one if possible.
Before investing in a TV antenna repair, there are a few steps you can take to help boost your signal quality. Removing obstacles like tree branches can help improve your signal strength. Along the same line, moving an indoor antenna away from obstacles can also help. These should be near a window, as high as possible. If these steps don’t work, speak with a TV antenna technician about a signal amplifier to help boost your signal even further.
The cost to repair your TV antenna is around $200 for the average homeowner. However, charges could be as low as $60 or as high as $450. Factors such as multidirectional or unidirectional, indoor or outdoor, and amplified or non-amplified all play an essential role in determining the cost of your repair. For example, outdoor antennas cost more on average to repair than indoor ones, much like amplified antennas cost more to repair than unamplified ones.
Before your TV antenna stops working, there are a few ways to tell it’s starting to break. Some common signs that your antenna needs repair include:
A repetitive “no signal” issue
A redundant “searching” issue
Increased signal issues during a cloudy or rainy day
A sudden drop in signal strength, regardless of the weather
If you’re experiencing these problems, you’ll want to ensure that your cables are still in good shape and have not deteriorated. In addition, check to make sure that your cables are firmly in place at the wall outlet. Finally, check the position of your antenna to ensure there are no obstructions in its path. If you’ve checked your antenna thoroughly and are still having these problems, a repair is most likely needed by an antenna technician.
