Coax outlet installation

I'm moving into a house that doesn't have a coax outlet later this month. Is a coax outlet something I can schedule an Xfinity technician to install? Or do I need to reach out to a contractor/electrician?

Hi, thank you for reaching out. I see you are getting our service soon at your new location, which doesn't have an outlet. In these cases, we can schedule a professional installation to get a new cable run and an outlet installed. The installation fee is $100.00, which is billed to your account. You'd then be good to go on your end.

Be advised. Comcast techs do not do any wall fishing for the coax wiring. They run the cabling outside of the premises and they just drill holes from the outside to the inside to get the wiring in. If you want / need wall fishing to be done, you would need to hire a local contractor, such as a low-voltage electrician.

They also refer to a service company that they have partnered with. See this article: https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/hellotech-overview
