AI Receptionist for Home Service Businesses

For cleaning, garage door, pool, handyman, appliance repair and moving companies that can't stop working to answer the phone.

The reality

What your phones look like on a real day

Most home service owners are on a job when the phone rings. A cleaner is mid-house, a handyman is on a ladder, a mover is carrying a couch. The call goes to voicemail and the caller tries the next name.

The work itself varies by trade, but the calls look alike: a quote that needs a few details, a visit that needs to move, a recurring customer who needs a reminder, and an estimate that went out and never came back.

The quote that needs a few details

How many bedrooms, what size pool, which appliance, how far the move. Your team can't price it without the basics, and the caller won't wait on hold to give them.

The garage door stuck at 7 a.m.

A car trapped inside and a homeowner late for work. They want to know if someone can come today, and they'll book whoever answers first.

Reschedules and recurring visits

Weekly cleanings, monthly pool service, a move date that slipped. Each change is a call your office has to take and a schedule someone has to fix.

The estimate that went quiet

You quoted a deep clean or a full move a week ago. Nobody followed up and the customer booked with someone who did.

The leak

The calls and leads that slip away

  • Quote calls that go to voicemail while the owner is on a job
  • Same-day repair calls that book with whoever answers first
  • Recurring customers who drift away after a missed reschedule
  • Estimates with no follow-up after they go out

  1. AI Receptionist

    Thanks for calling. I'm a virtual assistant for the team. How can I help?

  2. Caller

    My garage door won't open and my car is stuck inside.

  3. AI Receptionist

    Sorry about that. Is the door stuck closed, or partly open?

  4. Caller

    Closed. It makes a noise but doesn't move.

  5. AI Receptionist

    Got it. I'll get this to the technician. What's the address, and is this the best number to reach you?

  6. Caller

    88 Birch Lane, and yes, this number.

  7. AI Receptionist

    Thanks. The team will call you shortly to confirm when someone can come out.

Where we'd start

What we'd build for you first

AI receptionist that collects quote details

Asks the questions your team needs for each service and passes a complete request along, or books the visit if you set fixed rules.

Recurring visit scheduling and reminders

Handles reschedules and sends reminders for recurring visits by call or text, with texts only for customers who agreed to them.

Estimate follow-up

Checks in after an estimate goes out, answers the basic questions you approve and offers a time to talk with your team.

Important: The assistant doesn't quote prices or promise arrival times unless you've approved them. It collects the details and hands the job to your team.

FAQ

Home Services: common questions

Yes. It can ask different questions depending on the service the caller needs, so a cleaning quote and a repair request each get the right intake.
