How Can Your Commercial Building Benefit From a NetCov Signal Booster
Our commercial signal boosters are suitable for hospitals, warehouses, hotels, and all other types of commercial buildings. So, whether you own a multi-story office building or a large production facility, our commercial cell phone signal boosters are the perfect solution to increase your connectivity.
At NetCov, we aim to provide you with the best signal possible through our Ofcom-approved boosters. A strong and reliable signal is crucial to boosting productivity, streamlining workplace operations and meeting your long-term business goals.
Here are some of the main reasons why we believe a good phone signal is so important for commercial buildings and businesses:
- Enhances communication. Our signal boosters ensure your staff can communicate with each other effectively regardless of where they are located in the building. This allows for decisions to be made faster and for better collaboration on projects. It also means fewer dropped calls and a better experience for clients or customers.
- Boosts productivity. Providing improved phone signals can increase efficiency in the workplace and boost productivity levels. If there is a problem with the WiFi, mobile data acts as a backup helping to keep your business operations moving. It also means less time is wasted as employees don’t have to leave the building to make or take a call.
- Increases safety. Many security and fire alarm systems require mobile data as a backup. So, improving connectivity can create a safer environment for your employees. Additionally, a stronger cellular signal means staff can place an emergency call immediately if there’s an incident.
- Allows for seamless connectivity. Better signal strength means that everyone can stay connected as they move about the building, reducing interruptions and delays due to missed or dropped calls.
- Compliments Wi-Fi. Using commercial signal boosters ensures the best in-building mobile connectivity, complementing existing WiFi solutions. This also helps to reduce the strain on your IT infrastructure.
- Offer a better experience to visitors or clients. Signal boosters can help visitors make important calls and allow them to access the internet without needing to log in to the WiFi. This can help them make faster business decisions and increase the likelihood of a business partnership.
NetCov offers complete installation, ongoing maintenance and specialist advice tailored to commercial businesses. We offer a bespoke solution to solve your connectivity needs.
How Do Signal Boosters Work in Commercial Buildings?
What Affects Mobile Phone Signal Strength in Commercial Buildings?
Several factors can affect mobile phone signal strength in commercial buildings, including:
- Construction materials. A wide range of construction materials can affect mobile signal strength in commercial buildings, including reinforced concrete and steel. Foil-backed insulation, energy-efficient windows and ceramic tiles can also have a negative impact on connectivity.
- The size and height of the building. Some commercial buildings, such as warehouses, are large structures with high ceilings meaning there might be a poorer signal the deeper into the building you go. Other buildings, such as office blocks, typically consist of multiple floors which can also have an effect on signal strength.
- Crowded urban environments. If your commercial building is located in a busy city centre there are many people trying to place calls and connect to mobile data in one place. This can cause connectivity problems inside your building.
- Location. If your commercial building is located in a more rural or remote area, this means it could be far away from cell phone towers which means that signal strength is severely reduced.
- Nearby obstructions. Mountains, trees or tall buildings close to your commercial building can also reduce connectivity, especially if the obstruction is between your building and a cell phone tower.
How Do Signal Boosters Improve Poor Mobile Signal in Commercial Buildings?
Our cell phone boosters work by picking up your desired network (such as EE, O2, Vodafone, Three and many others) and amplifying this signal in the places where you need it the most, such as the areas of your commercial building with poor connectivity. With our commercial cellular signal boosters, you can have multiple devices set up to make sure there are no dead zones in your building ensuring your staff can stay fully connected at all times.

Why Do I Need a Commercial Signal Booster if I Already Have WiFi?
If you already have high-speed WiFi throughout your commercial building, you might think there’s no need for a signal booster. However, a combination of both existing WiFi infrastructure and a strong mobile phone signal is the best solution to increasing connectivity and productivity for your business.
Here are some of the main advantages of supporting your existing WiFi with a commercial signal booster:
A cellular connection is more secure than WiFi.
Visitors and clients can easily place calls and connect to the internet without logging in.
There is less interference and fewer network issues.
This combination ensures seamless connectivity throughout your building.

Commercial Signal Boosters FAQs
When it comes to choosing signal-boosting technology for your commercial building, here are the main factors you should consider:
- Is the signal booster Ofcom complaint?
- Is installation included in the price?
- Does the company offer ongoing maintenance?
At NetCov, we only offer Ofcom-compliant commercial signal boosters and full installation and ongoing maintenance is always included in our price. We also offer a completely free initial consultation so that you can assess if a signal boosting system is the right fit for your business.
Yes, commercial signal boosters are legal in the UK, but they are heavily regulated and controlled. To be legally compliant, signal boosters must be approved by Ofcom, the UK communications regulator. Cel-Fi signal boosters, which we offer at NetCov, are Of-com approved and licence exempt meaning they can be legally deployed without a licence.
Each antenna will cover an open plan area of between 100 and 300 square metres. If you need to cover a larger area, multiple antennas can be combined in one signal-boosting system to provide you with complete connectivity.
Many commercial buildings have weak cellular signals because of their construction materials which block or weaken the signal. Common building materials such as glass, concrete and steel can affect connectivity in commercial buildings. Other building elements such as energy-efficient windows can also reflect mobile phone signals. Other contributing factors include the commercial building’s location, weather, heavy cellular traffic and more.
If your commercial building has poor connectivity, improving it should be a priority to improve communication, boost productivity and meet your long-term business goals. At NetCov, we offer high-quality commercial mobile signal boosters that are designed to improve connectivity in commercial buildings by amplifying existing signals.
Yes, a signal-boosting system can be a cost-effective way to improve connectivity in your commercial building. The installation costs of your signal-boosting system will depend on the size of the building, the number of networks you want to boost and any other specific requirements you have. However, this initial investment will quickly become worthwhile due to the many benefits of increased connectivity to your business.
At NetCov, we offer a free initial consultation, including a site visit if required, and a free price estimate which covers complete installation and ongoing maintenance. So, if you are interested in improving your commercial building’s connectivity please get in touch with our team.
