I'm not sure how many on here are staple dimension experts but it might be helpful to know that VM offer a fairly cheap £25 rewire if you are looking to shift your home setup around. 

I'm not a Very Insightful Person (just a little bit, sometimes). I don't work for Virgin Media (but then nor do any of the offshore customer service agents).

We are just rerouting one of the cables as we have put tv on wall

VM Internal RG6 cable is approx 7mm in diameter, measure your cables.
Our heavy duty staple gun would crush a soft coax cable and that would degrade the signal quality.
Plastic wire cleats would be a safer in 7 or 8mm, the types used for TV aerial cables are suitable.

Brilliant.  Thanks for your answer
