People often ask how far a home should be from a mobile phone mast. In practice, distance is only one factor. Antenna direction, height, frequency, obstructions and the surrounding radio environment all affect the field level at a particular location. Measurement answers the property-specific question.
Two properties at similar distances from a mast can have different measured levels because the radio path and antenna geometry differ.
Professional instruments can record overall RF field levels and, where required, examine the spectrum to identify contributing signals.
A survey can establish a baseline or answer a specific concern about a nearby mast without assuming that the presence of RF implies a health effect.
For a property-specific answer, our dedicated survey service measures RF levels on site and documents the findings.
No. This is an engineering measurement service. We measure electromagnetic fields and RF signals and can compare measured levels with recognised exposure reference levels; we do not diagnose illness or claim that a measured field is the cause of symptoms.
Yes. The agreed deliverable can include measurement locations, equipment used, significant signals observed, measured levels and engineering findings.
Where technically practical, frequency-selective measurements and source investigation can help distinguish internal sources from external transmitters and identify the signals contributing to measured levels.
Send the property location, your concern and any nearby RF sources you already know about. We will review the requirement and advise on the appropriate paid survey.
