AI Answering Service for Home Services

    HVAC, Plumbing, Electrical

    Why switch from offshore answering?

    Speed & clarity: No handoffs or holds; sub-second pickup reduces abandonment. Offshore queues and accent/cultural gaps depress conversion.

    Books real jobs: AI schedules directly into your calendar and tags jobs by line of business.

    Spam blocking: Keep crews off junk calls so booked jobs stay on schedule.

    What the numbers say

    10-15x

    Phone leads convert 10–15x higher than clicks in many local-services funnels, which is why "the call is the new click" for SMBs.[1]

    Millions Lost

    In home services, missed sales calls cost "millions" across the category; simple process changes recapture material revenue.[2]

    24/7 Coverage

    2024 home-services operators cite rising demand and cost pressure—automation that answers 24/7 helps protect close rates without adding headcount.[3]
