How Much Does a Commercial Cell Booster System Cost in Dallas–Fort Worth?
Straight answers from a local, Nextivity CEL-FI certified installer with 10+ years and 1,000+ installs across DFW.
The short answer:
$3,000 to $100,000+Commercial cell booster systems in Dallas–Fort Worth start around $3,000 for a small office or single-floor space and can go well past $100,000 for large, multi-story buildings. Square footage is the biggest factor, followed by building construction and how much signal is available outside.
What drives the price
Square footage
More space means more indoor antennas, more cable and, on larger jobs, more amplifier units. This is the number-one cost driver.
Building construction
Concrete, steel, low-E glass and metal roofs block cell signal. The tougher the building, the more coverage equipment it takes.
Outside signal
Stronger donor signal at the roof means a simpler system. Weak or distant towers require more gain and careful design.
Carriers covered
Most businesses need AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile all working. Covering every carrier your staff and guests use affects the equipment choice.
System type
Smaller spaces often use a CEL-FI GO system. Larger buildings use a CEL-FI QUATRA active DAS, which distributes signal over network cable to many coverage points.
Cable routing & access
Ceiling type, building height, after-hours work and lift requirements all affect labor time.

Common questions
Is a cell booster legal for my business?
Yes. CEL-FI systems are FCC-approved and carrier-friendly. They're designed not to interfere with the carrier networks.
Will it work for all carriers?
We design systems to cover the carriers your business needs, typically AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile. Your survey shows the signal available for each one.
Do I need Wi-Fi calling instead?
Wi-Fi calling helps some phones, but it doesn't fix dropped calls, slow data or devices that don't support it. A booster system fixes the cellular signal itself for everyone in the building.
How long does installation take?
Small systems are often installed in a day. Larger multi-floor systems take several days and can be scheduled after hours to avoid disrupting your business.
Do you require a deposit?
Yes. Commercial projects require a deposit, with the balance due at installation and commissioning. Exact terms are on your written quote.
