I am resubmitting my Review as perhaps I was a bit harsh with the grade. The owner explained to me the reason for non/late response and at the time I had tried to contact many services as I didn't want my husband on the roof. Only one responded. So with my frustration I took it out on the grade. By the owner actually contacting us, I feel that he is genuinely a hard working person.

Response from Mr Free HDTV Man
We were given a review that was not fair based upon the parameters that Angie's List has in their standard operating systems in regards to Leads. We contacted both the husband and [Member Name Removed] and explained the reason we did not respond to her Lead request was because Angie's List does not automatically send Leads to a contractor when they are filled out. I am confused as to the grade we were given as a B because we did not do any work for the customer. This grade is the first grade we have ever been given that is lower than an A -- especially since the problem was created by Angie's List. Thank you [Member Name Removed] and her husband for listening to me, I sincerely appreciate their efforts to change the grade we were originally given.

Geary runs a great business. Great communication. Honesty and a fair price. I've now been Comcast free for about a month and don't plan on looking back. His installer was very respectful and placed the antenna exactly where I wanted it so that it wasn't an eye sore. I'm now getting 90 free channels and actual have been watching more TV lately because everything is tied into my Apple TV. Absolutely recommended!

This company was a pleasure to deal with. Explained their services on the telephone and arranged an install date and time. All went better than expected. The installer was a real professional, did a great job in a very short time. Checked and set all my TV’s and made certain of good reception. If you’re considering “cutting the cable” this is the way to do it and Mr. Free HDTV Man is the company to call. You’ll be glad you did.

Finally! No monthly bill. The owner and installer for this company will tailor the installation to your needs. There are no hidden fees to worry about. The upfront pricing and detailed description of what the install will consist of will let you know if this is right for you or not. They are flexible. Mr Free HDTV Man was able to attach to my existing system with minimal modifications. I now pay nothing for TV for the first time in 24 years. The warranty/guarantee is something they also stand behind without further hidden fees. There was a minor issue the first day after the installation and they immediately came out, repaired the system, and took nothing for the service call stating, "it was part of their promise." Try finding that through the local cable companies! As for the signal, they adjust the antenna to bring in the strongest possible signal available in your area. I am far from Chicago (the second county into Northwest Indiana) and mine works without fail. Amplifiers are used if necessary. Since every installation is different, they explain to you that a minimal charge for this amplification may be necessary (but in my case, was never needed). The installer will then enter the home(with respect to your rugs, floors, furniture, etc.) and program your TV so it understands the antenna is now the recommended input. I receive 54 channels between the VHF and UHF bands. Their punctuality, expertise, courteousness, price, warranty, quality of equipment, and attention to detail made me give them the highest rating available. If you are near Chicago and want to experience life without a monthly TV bill, call Mr. Free HDTV Man.

Everything went well. We live in New Buffalo, MI and Geary (Mr Free HD TV Man) and his partner took the time to make sure the antenna was installed high enough on the roof and pointing towards the Chicago area broadcast stations’ antennas. We now get free crystal clear reception of all the local Chicago stations. Job well done!

It went extremely well. They were top-notch and I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Description of Work: They quoted a good price that was very detailed. When they showed up they did an initial walk-through to confirm that the job could indeed be completed. They were professional and provided quality work. They were not the cheapest nor the most expensive. I have spoken to a few people that got cheap prices and regretted it. I was 'VERY' pleased with the quality of work and would recommend them to anyone.

Project went great, quick and easy. Geary was very responsive from the start, got me on the schedule quickly and the install itself was only 90min or so. For those considering cutting the cord, you will have a hard time finding someone to do this for such a reasonable price. We are all the way out in Sugar Grove and we still ended up getting 76 channels with the antennae. Between the antennae and Sling TV, there is simply no need for cable again (getting a Kodi Box will only add to this). Honestly Geary was the only one to respond to me out of 3-4 people I contacted about this project, as he actually understand basic costumer service. If you are thinking about cutting the cord, you really have nothing to lose (install paid for itself in 3 months). Thanks for the great service!
