If you have carpet you can order a 50 to 100 foot FLAT Ethernet cable to run from one room to another, and you can pull up the edge of the carpet and lay it underneath. if it is a flat cable it will not show when you lay the carpet back down. You should be able to then set up another router, move the current router you have, or you can alternatively get a long phone line to run through your carpet.
Doesn't take much effort and a youtube video could handle it. Just make sure it is at least Cat6 (1 gigabit per second at least) as a cable. Cat5 is an older technology.

Setting up a router itself has some very simple youtube videos that explain how to do it. It's honestly not that hard to set up a router - the difficulty comes when you have to apply new DNS ports (Which is something most people dont have a clue about). Heck, maybe once you get the ethernet cable there it can connect directly, or you can get a dongle that lets you apply the ethernet cable as a phone cable instead.
Getting someone to come out and run wire through your wall is going to be destructive and cost a lot of time. The best option is DIY and to just buy a longer cable and run it from one room to another.

Get a WiFi extender and plug it into the LAN (Ethernet) port. They also sell ones with multiple Ethernet ports.
Here’s an example.
