Most condo buildings already have bulk internet or building-wide fibre, and for a lot of units that's genuinely fine — we're not going to talk you into a $449 install you don't need. The calls we get are usually one of two things: a unit where the building's internet has been unreliable for months and management won't fix it, or someone who wants Starlink specifically as a backup line for a home office, so a building outage doesn't cost them a workday.
The thing that actually decides whether it's possible is the sky view, not the floor. Starlink needs a genuine, unobstructed slice of open sky — for most Toronto exposures that means a real northern view with nothing in the way: no neighbouring tower, no roof overhang, no balcony glass or privacy screen cutting the angle down to nothing. We check this first, from photos or a quick visit, before anyone books an install date. A high floor with an open northern exposure is usually straightforward. A low floor boxed in by taller buildings on three sides usually isn't, and we'll say so on the phone.
Mounting to a balcony railing means touching a shared exterior surface, so condo board approval comes first. We do not currently carry commercial general liability insurance and cannot provide a certificate of insurance. If your building requires one, we cannot accept that work at present. And if your specific unit's exposure genuinely will not work, we'll tell you that outright instead of mounting a dish that never holds a signal. We'd rather lose the job than leave you with an expensive paperweight bolted to your railing.
Etobicoke, North York and Scarborough are full of exactly the lot sizes that make a satellite install more of a puzzle than a suburban acreage ever is: narrow setbacks, mature trees the city won't let you touch, a neighbour's addition sitting closer to your roofline than the last provider's map accounted for. A standard roof or gable mount is still the right answer for most of these — $449 flat — but it only works if the survey confirms the sky view is actually clear from that spot, not just clear enough on paper.
Townhouses add their own wrinkle: shared walls mean the cable entry point has to be planned around what's actually your unit and what isn't, and a roofline that a neighbour two doors down already has an antenna bolted to isn't necessarily the same angle you'll get. When tree canopy or a blocked roofline rules out the standard mount, a pole or non-penetrating mount — $549 — gets the dish clear without cutting into a roof you'd rather leave alone.
Either way, the cable gets dressed along brick, siding or stucco and sealed properly at the entry point — not stapled along a fence line or left as a silicone blob through the wall.
A backup line for a home office. Cable and fibre in the city are generally reliable, right up until the afternoon they aren't — a cut line, a neighbourhood outage, a building wiring fault nobody's in a hurry to fix. For anyone whose income depends on being online, a second connection on a completely different network is cheap insurance against losing a billable day.
Rural properties just outside the city. The GTA core has good service; the edge of it doesn't always. Properties out past Brampton and Vaughan, and the rural stretch around Milton, show up on every provider's coverage map as serviced — and then the actual line at the driveway tells a different story. That's the gap Starlink fills.
New builds waiting on a fibre hookup. New subdivisions across the GTA get sold with fibre as a feature and then wait months for the provider to actually run it — we've installed Starlink as the working connection for more than one family moving into a finished house with an unfinished internet promise.
We're based in Etobicoke, and Toronto, Mississauga, Vaughan, Markham, Brampton, Richmond Hill, Oakville and Milton all sit inside our Zone A — 0 to 50 km, travel free, no add-on line item to negotiate. That's most of what we drive to in a given week, which means the schedule isn't fighting a two-hour round trip before it even gets to your install.
In practice that means most Zone A bookings go within the same week, and weekday slots in the city core are often same-day — text a photo in the morning and there's a real chance we're at your address that afternoon. Weekend slots book first, so if you know you want a Saturday, ask early.
Not every call from a GTA number is a condo balcony. A recent job on a rural property outside the city — the kind of address Zone A still reaches without a travel fee — needed Starlink on two separate houses on the same lot. Both got standard roof mounts once the sky-view survey cleared them; no pole needed.
Wiring the second house properly meant a 150 ft custom cable run, clipped along the facade and routed inside rather than drilled through wherever was convenient, plus three mesh Wi-Fi nodes split across both buildings so coverage reached every room instead of just the one closest to the dish. Two dishes, one clean cable run, a network that covers the whole property — the same standard we hold a one-bedroom condo install to.
Competitors quote “from $550” and will not tell you the real number until a tech is standing in your driveway. Here is ours, in advance.
// Prices in CAD before HST. No kit yet? We can source a genuine Starlink kit and the official mounts through authorized Canadian retail and deliver them on install day — hardware billed at cost with the receipt in your hand, no markup, plus $100 for the sourcing and delivery run and $50 for Starlink account setup. Most installers will not book you until the dish is already in your hallway; we would rather go and get it. Order the kit yourself and neither fee applies. The subscription itself activates on your own Starlink account. Already have a kit? Even easier. Mesh Wi-Fi hardware and custom cable materials are billed at cost with the receipt shown.
// Two installs in one visit — a second unit, a rental, a neighbour who needs one too? $100 off when we book them on the same trip, ask when you text.
// Toronto sits in our Zone A along with Etobicoke, Mississauga, Vaughan, Markham, Brampton, Richmond Hill, Oakville and Milton — travel is free from 0 to 50 km. See the full travel zone breakdown if you're calling from further out.
