Attention homeowners and landlords - consumer alert: Don’t let satellite dish companies install satellite dishes on your roof. Landlords should have clauses in leases forbidding roof installation of dishes as well. Dishes can be placed on decks, poles, or on the ground or you can get cable instead.Our tenants had 3 dishes installed on our house without our permission. One dislodged and blew over leaving open holes on our roof which resulted in damage to the roof and interior walls and ceiling. Damages were more than $3,000. The tenant and DIRECTV assumed no responsibility and we had to pay for the damages ourselves!
