Frequently asked questions

How much has tv aerial and satellite installation inflation increased since 2015?
The ONS CPIH sub-index for Repair of household appliances (category 05.3.3) rose from 100.0 in 2015 to 123.8 in January 2026 — a rise of 23.8%. The 12-month change (Jan-25 to Jan-26) was +1.3%.
Which UK region has the highest tv aerial labour costs?
Based on ONS ASHE 2025, London consistently has the highest median earnings for most trade occupations. For Electrical service and maintenance mechanics and repairers (SOC 5246), the London median is £51,909/year vs the national median of £41,662/year.
Why does the GSPI not vary by region?
The ONS CPIH is a national (UK-wide) index and does not publish regional sub-indices for most service categories. Regional variation is therefore captured via ONS ASHE labour cost data (which does vary by region), not via a separate regional CPIH. The GSPI is the same for a given service type across all regions; only the labour context differs.
