Aytchgee: Your location should provide very good reception of all multiplexes, with only multiplex 2 being poor.
However, this requires a rooftop aerial that is actually on the roof.
If you use a wideband rooftop aerial, you will certainly get all the channels now and after switchover.
You are experiencing a typical problem for a loft aerial.

Chris: If you have a Freesat HD television set, you need to connect the satellite dish to the set to get HD.
Your dish will have two spare LNB outputs, as you have Sky+, but you will need to run in a cable.
You can test this by powering off your Sky+ box and borrowing the cable connected to the "satellite 2" input and attaching it (again with the power off) to the "satellite input" on the TV.
You can't get HD from a Sky+ box, only a Sky+HD box, no matter what cables you use.
Another option is to stop paying Sky and get a Freesat+HD (or, if you live in a switched area, a Freeview+HD) box - this will provide HD - via an HDMI cable - for no monthly outlay.
Or, as I say, run in a satellite grade cable in parallel with your Sky+ cables from the dish to the TV "satellite input".
I hope this helps.
