Why Every Missed Call Hurts Home Repair Businesses

In home services, clients are urgent:

  • Leaky roofs

  • Broken ACs

  • Electrical failures

  • Plumbing emergencies

If they call and no one answers, they don’t leave a voicemail they call the next company.

One missed call = one missed job.
One missed job = hundreds or even thousands in lost revenue.

Today’s smart repair pros aren’t risking it anymore they’re turning to AI Support Agents.


How AI Receptionists Capture Jobs You Can't Afford to Miss

An AI Support Agent acts as your always-on receptionist:

  • Answers calls immediately, even after hours

  • Texts leads back if a call drops or goes unanswered

  • Captures critical info like name, address, service type, and urgency

  • Books appointments or escalates urgent calls

  • Follows up by email for estimates and post-service feedback

With AI receptionists handling the first touchpoint, your business never misses another opportunity.
