How much does DIRECTV installation cost in Mooresville? Installation is free — here’s the real total.
Every fee, every line, before you sign. We’d rather you know the number now than be surprised on the first bill.
Free professional installation · Rate locked 24 months · Local since 2014
Professional installation is free when you sign up for DIRECTV satellite through NCWD Direct. Your first month is the package price + $10 TV Access Fee + taxes, plus a one-time $49.95 activation fee. That’s it.
What “free installation” includes
- Dish placement and mounting (roof, eave or pole), aimed and weather-sealed
- Cable runs to the TVs you choose
- Genie DVR / Gemini receiver connected and activated
- Everything tested on every TV before we leave, and a walk-through of the remote and guide
No trip charge inside our 45-mile radius from Mooresville. If a job needs something unusual — very long custom cable runs or a specialty mount — we tell you before we start, not after.

Things people ask us to check for hidden fees
- Extra TVs: additional receivers carry a monthly fee — we’ll quote your exact count.
- Equipment upgrades: 4K or additional Gemini boxes are optional; we’ll never add them without asking.
- Early termination: satellite’s 24-month agreement has early termination charges if you cancel early. If you might move within two years, tell us — DIRECTV via Internet may be the better fit.
All prices are DIRECTV’s current dealer pricing and subject to change. We show you the sheet.

What is the DIRECTV TV Access Fee?
A $10 per month fee on satellite service, separate from the package price. We include it in every quote so the number you see is the number you pay.

What happens if I cancel satellite early?
Satellite carries a 24-month agreement with early termination charges if you cancel before it ends. If you may move soon, tell us — DIRECTV via Internet is month to month and may fit better.
