TV antenna solutions for new homes
Call 0406 700 340Building a new home or undertaking major renovations in Brisbane? AntennaBuddy provides complete TV antenna and cabling infrastructure for new builds, new home construction, and renovation projects. We work closely with builders, architects, and homeowners to deliver professional pre-wiring, antenna installation, and AV cabling infrastructure built right the first time.
New home construction is the perfect opportunity to install proper TV antenna and cabling infrastructure before walls are closed in. Pre-wiring during construction is far easier, more cost-effective, and delivers better results than retrofitting cables after completion. We coordinate with your builder to install cabling at the optimal construction stage.
Our new build services include complete TV point pre-wiring, antenna installation, structured data cabling, HDMI in-wall cabling, home theatre pre-wire, outdoor entertainment areas, and smart home infrastructure. We provide detailed plans, work with Brisbane builders and electricians, and ensure all cabling meets Australian standards and council requirements.
Servicing Brisbane, Ipswich, Logan, and surrounding growth areas, we specialize in new estate developments, custom homes, knockdown rebuilds, and major renovations. From display homes to luxury custom builds, we deliver professional AV infrastructure that adds value to your new property and provides reliable TV reception for decades.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about new builds & renovations in Brisbane
When should cabling be installed during construction?
Cabling is installed in two stages: Pre-wire happens after framing is complete but before plasterboard (walls go up). This is when we run all cables. Fit-off happens near completion when we install wall plates, terminate cables, and mount the antenna. We coordinate timing with your builder.
What should I pre-wire during new construction?
We recommend pre-wiring TV points in all main rooms (living, bedrooms, media room), network points for home offices and entertainment areas, HDMI for wall-mounted TVs, home theatre speaker wiring, and outdoor entertainment areas. It's far easier now than retrofitting later.
Do you work with builders in Brisbane?
Yes, we regularly work with Brisbane builders, volume builders, custom home builders, and project managers. We understand construction schedules and coordinate seamlessly to ensure cabling installation happens at the right time without delaying the build.
How many TV points should a new home have?
We typically recommend 4-8 TV points depending on house size: living room, media/theatre room, master bedroom, additional bedrooms, outdoor entertainment area, and perhaps study or gym. It's cost-effective to install extra points during construction.
Should I install data cabling or just use WiFi?
While WiFi is convenient, we strongly recommend installing Cat6 data cabling during new construction. It provides faster speeds, better reliability, and future-proofs your home. Installation during construction is easy and inexpensive compared to retrofitting later.
Can you provide plans for council approval?
Yes, we can provide technical documentation and cabling plans if required for council approvals or building certification. All our installations meet Australian standards and building code requirements.
What about home theatre pre-wiring?
If you're planning a home theatre or media room, pre-wiring during construction is essential. We install speaker wires in walls/ceiling for surround sound, HDMI cables to screen location, network points, and power outlets in optimal locations. This must happen before walls close.
Do you install antennas before the roof is complete?
No, antenna installation happens after the roof is complete, tiles/sheets are installed, and it's safe to access. Pre-wiring happens much earlier. We coordinate both stages with your builder to ensure proper timing.
Can you work on renovation projects?
Absolutely. Major renovations and extensions offer opportunities to upgrade TV and data cabling. When walls are opened up, we can install proper infrastructure similar to new builds. We work with renovation builders throughout Brisbane.
What documentation do you provide?
We provide detailed as-built plans showing all cable locations, outlet positions, cable types used, and technical specifications. This documentation is essential for building records, future renovations, and proving compliance with building codes.
