About us

Back when we were house-hunting in Langley, BC, we were about to buy a home and, during the inspection, I stepped into the basement and immediately noticed something: no cell coverage. We were planning a future daycare in the basement, and the idea of running it without reliable cellular service was a concern.

At the time, I was a network technician with Rogers Communications, so I understood the network side of the problem and knew exactly who to call. After explaining the situation, I was politely told what to do about it: move (as in, move to a different house or neighborhood). I was also told not to worry because a new cell site was planned a few blocks away “next year.” We decided to tough it out for a while since the daycare still needed to be built in our unfinished basement.

After we moved in, I realized the problem was bigger than the basement. I was missing phone calls and text messages even on the main floor. My phone could be sitting on the kitchen counter and still wouldn’t ring when it should. I know a few tricks to force the phone onto certain frequencies (Samsung *#2263#) that usually worked better. At one point, the most reliable method involved standing near the kitchen door with my phone in my right hand, on my left ear, left thumb touching my right ear, pinky sticking out, and balancing on my right foot. It worked – until I moved.

Eventually, it became more than just annoying. Morning conference calls were failing, and as an on-call tech nights and weekends, I was missing calls when I needed them most. Things went from frustrating to unacceptable.

I had already learned about signal boosters through my work in the cellular industry, including investigating interference that disrupts service to cell towers. More often than not, the cause was a cheap, poor-quality booster with the wrong antennas and an incorrect installation. I quickly learned which products not to buy.

So I did the research, identified the best equipment, and installed a system that actually solved the problem. I haven’t looked back since.

Today, calls and texts work throughout our home – including the basement. My wife can run her business without “finding the one spot” in the house where messages send. The only thing a booster can’t fix is your phone bill.

That “new cell site next year” never happened. Langley had different plans at the time. Thankfully, more sites are finally being added – but many homes and buildings still struggle with indoor coverage for the same reasons: distance to the tower, building materials, and terrain.

What started as helping family and friends has grown into Fraser Valley RF Solutions, and we’ve now professionally installed 100+ cellular signal boosters across the Fraser Valley and Metro Vancouver. We stand behind the work – and the reviews speak for themselves.

Poor cellular coverage affects more people than you’d think – from rural properties far from the nearest tower, to concrete-and-steel buildings that block signal, to urban homes that still end up with dead zones. The good news is that a high-quality booster, properly designed and installed, is one of the most reliable ways to improve indoor coverage. These systems work for all carriers, in almost all locations. All boosters supplied and installed by Fraser Valley RF Solutions are guaranteed to improve your cellular service. If you’d like extra confidence before moving forward, we can schedule an on-site demonstration so you can verify the improvement before committing.
