San Antonio Starlink installer, Nationwide Installation Techs, (877) 309-1050. Bexar County is ours end to end, from the Stone Oak hills down to the ranch roads past Somerset, with insured technicians who also run out along I-10 and I-35 into the counties next door. When the kit has already arrived, most jobs are finished the day we come. Homes start at $385. A business install is $750 per site, falling to $650 a site across three or more locations. Motorhomes, trucks and vans start at $650, less for three or more vehicles or a whole fleet, and yachts and boats start at $750. Each job carries our one-year workmanship guarantee, and we hold a 4.9-star Google rating from 100+ customer reviews. Serving San Antonio, TX and every town around it.
The sky over San Antonio is rarely what makes a job hard. The paperwork around the house usually is. A large number of families here are on a military assignment and renting, so an owner has to agree before anything is fixed to the building. Many of the older streets sit inside locally designated historic districts, where a change to the outside of the house goes through the city first. And much of the north side carries a newer roof than it did a decade ago, courtesy of the hail. Each of those settles which mount we use before the dish leaves its box.
What Starlink takes off the table here is the waiting. Nobody has to join a build list, sit through a cable company’s four-hour window, or argue about whether a lot beyond Loop 1604 falls inside a provider’s map. The dish arrives, we put it up, and the house is online in days. Grab a Speedtest.net reading on the connection you have today and another the afternoon our technician drives off, because the distance between those two figures is the thing you bought. Most weeks our San Antonio work is a family renting near Lackland or Randolph, a King William or Monte Vista house that needs the dish out of sight of the street, a north-side home on its second roof, and an acreage in south Bexar County where the wire never showed up. Put the Starlink order in, and while it is in transit book the free virtual survey, so the mount is agreed before the package lands on the porch.
Renting Near Lackland, Randolph or Fort Sam Houston
Joint Base San Antonio brings Fort Sam Houston, Lackland and Randolph under one command, joined in 2010, and it counts roughly 25,000 active-duty members before anyone adds civilians and families. A large share of those households rent off base for the length of an assignment. That shapes the install more than any tree or roofline does.
- The owner signs first. Before a drill comes out of the van we need written permission from whoever owns the house. A property manager’s email is fine; a verbal yes relayed by a neighbor is not. Our notes on rental property installs walk through what the owner is being asked to approve.
- Pick the mount that leaves the least behind. A standard wall mount takes two bolts, top and bottom, and the holes are sealed. Where the owner will not accept a single hole, a non-penetrating ballasted mount sits on the roof held by its own weight and lifts off again when you leave.
- On-base housing answers to the housing office. Its rules decide what goes on the building, so bring us that approval the same way you would a landlord’s.
- The hardware moves with you. The dish, the router and the account are yours. When orders arrive, the kit goes in the moving truck, and we can come back to take the mount down and seal the fixing points so the house is handed back tidy.
King William, Monte Vista and the Review Before Anything Goes Up
King William, south of downtown along the river, became the city’s first historic district in 1968. Monte Vista, Dignowity Hill and a long list of others followed. Inside a locally designated district, or on a designated landmark, a change to the exterior needs a Certificate of Appropriateness from the city’s Office of Historic Preservation before the work happens, and a satellite dish on the street side of a Victorian or a Spanish-revival house is exactly the kind of change that gets looked at.
So on these streets the survey starts with the question the review will ask: can the dish do its job without being seen from the street? Very often it can. The dish looks north, and on plenty of lots a rear roof plane, a back wall or a detached garage gives it a clear view of that sky without showing itself at the front. We choose between the documented mounts on that basis: a pivot mount high on a rear shingle plane just below the ridge, a standard wall mount on a rear or side wall with its fixings into structure, or an under-eave arm where the rear eave is deep.
Some of the older houses here carry clay tile or slate, and we mount to neither. Both roofs keep water out by overlap and crack under a point load, so the fixing moves to a wall instead. We will give you the mount type, its location and a description of the hardware in writing to put in front of the city, and we book the install once the certificate is in hand rather than before.
The North Side Re-Roofed After the 2016 Hail, and Will Again
On 12 April 2016 a supercell dropped hail as large as four and a half inches across the north side of San Antonio. Insured losses came to roughly $1.4 billion across homes, businesses and more than 100,000 vehicles, which put it among the most expensive hailstorms Texas has recorded. Thousands of north-side roofs were replaced in the months that followed, and spring storms have kept roofers busy since.
That history matters to a mount in three practical ways.
- Know where your roof is in its life. If an adjuster has already been out, or a replacement is on the calendar, a pivot mount put on today will have to come off for the tear-off. Fixing the dish to a wall, or to an arm below the eave, keeps it clear of that work entirely.
- A new roof deserves a careful fixing. Where the pivot mount is the right answer, it goes high on the plane just below the ridge, with sealant worked into every pilot hole, run along the full edge of the base and laid over each bolt head. A storm that dents the gutters should not also start a leak at the mount.
- Ask the roofer about the warranty first. Some roofing warranties have conditions about penetrations. If yours does, the wall mount, the under-eave arm and the ballasted base all avoid the question entirely.
From Alamo Heights to Seguin: The Ground a San Antonio Starlink Installer Covers
We work every part of the city inside Loop 410 and out past Loop 1604. Alamo Heights sits about four miles north-north-east of downtown, Kirby seven to the east-north-east, and Leon Valley nine to the west-north-west, with Windcrest nine out to the north-east.
A ring further out, Shavano Park lies twelve miles north-north-west and Hollywood Park twelve due north. Converse is thirteen east-north-east, Universal City fifteen and Schertz seventeen to the north-east, the last of them over the Guadalupe County line. To the south-west, Von Ormy is thirteen miles out and Somerset seventeen; Elmendorf sits fifteen to the south-east and St. Hedwig eighteen due east.
Past that the work carries on into the neighboring counties: Bulverde twenty-two miles north in Comal County, Lytle twenty-two south-west in Atascosa, La Vernia twenty-three east-south-east in Wilson, and Castroville twenty-four west-south-west in Medina. Floresville is twenty-nine to the south-east, Boerne and New Braunfels each about twenty-nine miles out, to the north-north-west and north-east respectively, Pleasanton thirty-two due south, and Seguin thirty-three east-north-east.
Mileage never shows up on the invoice. What sets the price is the job at the address, and the same terms apply everywhere we work in the state.
South Bexar Ranches and Hill Country Acreage
Beyond the loops the reason for the call is different. South of Somerset and out toward Poteet, and in the Hill Country acreage north toward Bulverde, a wired connection worth having often never arrived, and the property is usually more than one building: a house, a barn, a shop, sometimes a second home for family.
One dish almost always covers all of it. We put it on whichever building sees the most sky and holds a mount best, then hand the signal on to the others with a point-to-point wireless bridge: two small radios, one on each building, aimed at each other with no cable in the ground. North of 1604 the rock sits close under the topsoil, so trenching a cable across a pasture is slow and costly, and the bridge usually costs less than the digging.
Solar and battery setups are routine out here. Plan on 75 to 100 watts of continuous draw for a Standard dish; that is the one figure your solar installer needs from us, and we do not design the array ourselves.
Fiber on the Street, and Why People Here Still Add Starlink
Fiber reaches a good many San Antonio streets now, and where it does it is a strong connection with low latency. People on those streets still call us, for reasons that are practical rather than technical.
Some are looking at what they pay every month and want a different number. Some have spent too long on hold after a fault and want a second route that does not depend on the same crew showing up. And some simply want a second line whose failures have nothing in common with the first, which is the case for Starlink as a backup in a nutshell. Military families add one more: a wired account belongs to the address, while the Starlink kit goes with you to the next posting. Which of those matters to you is your decision, and the survey gives you real numbers to make it with.
How a San Antonio Price Is Put Together
A home install starts at $385, and the figure climbs only for real work: a mount the roof or the historic review forces on us, extra mast height for a sightline, a long or awkward cable route, or a barn or shop that needs its own link. Reading the sky over your address is free and done remotely before we schedule anyone. If you would rather a technician walked the property first, the on-site survey is $199, and it earns its keep on a spread-out acreage.
You get the price before anyone starts, not partway through. Most jobs are booked within about three days, and with the kit already delivered and a clean remote survey, the same day is often possible.
We carry general liability insurance and our technicians do this every day. The hardware is yours, the service account is yours, and the monthly subscription is paid to Starlink rather than to us; our fee covers the install alone. Our install pricing guide breaks the numbers down further.
Work We Decline Anywhere in Bexar County
- No drilling clay tile or slate. Both shed water by overlap and crack under a fixing, and a cracked piece leaks where nobody can see it. Those houses get a wall mount or an under-eave arm.
- No holes in a metal roof, ever. A standing-seam or R-panel roof keeps its seal and its warranty; the dish goes on a wall or on a ballasted base instead.
- No roofing work. Hail-damaged shingle or soft decking is a job for a roofer, and anything we anchor to a roof that is about to be replaced comes straight back off.
- No mount without the owner’s written okay. On a rental or in base housing, the owner or the housing office decides, not the tenant.
- No filing the historic application for you. We supply the mount details in writing; the Certificate of Appropriateness is applied for by the property owner.
- No electrical or solar design. We hand your electrician the 75 to 100 watt figure and leave the sizing to them.
- No selling the service plan. Hardware and subscription come from Starlink and stay in your name.
Starlink Installation in San Antonio: What Homeowners Ask Us
Yes, and it is some of the most common work we do in this city. What we need first is written permission from the owner or the property manager. After that we pick the mount that leaves the least behind: a standard wall mount on two sealed bolts, or a ballasted base that sits on the roof by weight alone if the owner will not allow any holes. The kit and the account stay yours, so the whole setup leaves with you when the assignment ends.
In a locally designated historic district the city’s Office of Historic Preservation issues a Certificate of Appropriateness for exterior changes, so the owner applies there before the work is done. We help by finding a position the street cannot see, usually a rear roof plane, a back wall or a detached garage, and by putting the mount type, location and hardware in writing for the application. We book the install once the certificate is issued.
That depends on the terms of your roofer’s warranty, so ask them before we go up. Where penetrations are a concern there are three mounts that put no holes in the roof covering: a standard wall mount, an under-eave arm fixed to the wall below the soffit, and a non-penetrating ballasted base held by weight. Where a pivot mount is fine, we seal every pilot hole, the whole edge of the base and each bolt head.
The dish, router and cable are yours and go with you. The mount is fixed to the house, so either the owner keeps it for the next tenant or we come out, take it down and seal the fixing points before you hand the keys back. Tell us which the owner prefers when you book, and we will plan the install around it from the start.
No. Nearly every multi-building property here runs off a single dish. It sits on whichever roof or wall gives the cleanest view north, and the barn and the shop are linked with a point-to-point wireless bridge, one radio fixed on each building and pointed at the other. On rocky ground that is quicker and usually cheaper than digging a trench.
Mostly for independence. A second connection that does not share cabinets, cable routes or a repair queue with the first one keeps working when the first one does not, which matters to anyone working from home or running a small business. Military households add portability: the kit follows you to the next posting, while a wired account stays with the address. Price is the other common reason people give us.
A long way. We work all of Bexar County and into Comal, Guadalupe, Wilson, Atascosa, Medina and Kendall counties, from Bulverde and New Braunfels to Pleasanton, Floresville and Castroville. Distance does not change the price. It only affects which day we can get there, so mention the town when you call.
Usually within about three days of booking. With the kit delivered and nothing odd in the remote survey, finishing on the day of the visit is common. A historic district certificate or an owner’s approval still to come is the most common thing that pushes a date back, so get those moving first.
A house starts at $385 for the mount, cable, setup and aim, with the one-year workmanship guarantee included. It rises only when the job needs more, such as a wall mount the historic review requires, a taller mast, a long cable route, or a bridge out to a barn. A business pays $750 a site or $650 each across three or more, an RV, truck or van starts at $650, with a lower rate across a whole fleet, and a boat or yacht at $750. The remote sky survey is free, and an on-site visit before the job is $199.
