The Challenge
Volunteer fire halls in remote parts of the Rainy River District can’t count on reliable connectivity or cell coverage — and in an emergency, that gap matters. The Office of the Fire Marshal wanted two stations, Watten and Bear Pass, brought online with a proper pole-mounted Starlink connection and in-building cellular coverage.
With the fire departments, a provincial ministry and a tight schedule all involved, the install needed one local team to coordinate it, do the work and document it.
What We Did
Site visit and written quote · Pole-mounted Starlink · Cellphone booster installation · Scheduling directly with each fire department · Install and connectivity testing at both stations
On-site, start to finish. We met with the client on site, quoted both locations up front, then coordinated dates directly with each fire department so the ministry didn’t have to chase logistics.
The Results
Two stations, one week apart. Bear Pass was completed on October 24 and Watten on October 31, 2026.
Local hands. No out-of-region crews and no travel fees — installed by a team based in Fort Frances.
