My house has extremely poor 4G coverage on all 4 mobile operators (and no 5G at all). I get one or two bars independent of the phone. In the summer I can't call a bank or utility company because after 5 or 10mins the call will disconnect. But in winter, when the temperatures are under 0 suddenly I have 5 bars and no problem with calls disconnecting. Any idea why this is?

Less leaves on the trees and if you are in a touristy area less people on the network
 
On another note, if you have WiFi at home and your phone and network supports it, WiFi calling can help. However I have noticed each phone seems to prioritise it differently, my Pixel for example always uses it when I'm connected to WiFi, but I've seen other brands only using it if you have no signal at all.
