The enquiries that matter most, such as a new extension, a reroof or a kitchen fit, are worth a lot, and they go to whoever responds first and follows up. Our AI receptionist for roofers, joiners and builders answers calls and messages, collects the project details, books surveys and makes sure every quote gets followed up. ## What gets in the way today Enquiries arrive while you are working and get answered in the evening, if at all. Many are vague: a roof that might be leaking, a job someone wants priced. You drive out to surveys that were never serious, and quotes you spent an evening writing go unanswered because nobody followed up. ## What we set up, step by step - **Calls and messages answered.** On site or off, every enquiry is picked up on your number, WhatsApp and website. - **Project details collected.** Type of work, size, location area, timing, budget range if you want it, and photos by WhatsApp. - **Urgent work flagged.** Storm damage, leaks or unsafe structures flagged to you straight away, following your rules. - **Surveys booked.** Site visits booked into your diary for the enquiries that fit the work you take on. - **Quotes followed up.** Every quote you send gets polite follow-ups until the customer decides. ## Fewer wasted site visits With the right questions asked up front, you know before you drive out what the job is, roughly how big it is and when the customer wants it done. Enquiries outside the work you do get a polite answer instead of a visit. That is where most of the time is saved. ## What your day looks like after You work through the day and come down to a list of qualified enquiries with photos, surveys already booked and follow-ups running on the quotes you sent. More of the jobs you price turn into decisions, because nobody is left waiting to hear from you. ## A typical enquiry A homeowner calls about water coming through a bedroom ceiling after a storm. The AI asks where the leak is, how long it has been happening, the type of roof and the area, asks for photos on WhatsApp and flags the job as urgent under your rules. A second caller wants a quote for a garden room next spring: details collected, survey offered for a quiet week, follow-up set. ## Where it fits It works with [automatic lead qualification](https://mountolympusai.cloud/automatic-lead-qualification/), [lead follow-up automation](https://mountolympusai.cloud/lead-follow-up-automation/) and an [AI quote agent](https://mountolympusai.cloud/ai-quote-agent/).
