Construction & Home Services
Answer every job request, even when your team is on site.
Electricians, plumbers, builders and installers lose work when requests wait while the team is on a job — and when quotes go out but nobody chases them. Automation captures the details, checks the basics, books the visit and makes sure every quote gets a follow-up.

Why it matters to the business
Fewer lost jobs
Fast acknowledgement keeps customers from moving on to the next company on the list.
Quotes don't go quiet
Unanswered quotations get a polite, timely follow-up instead of being forgotten.
Better-prepared visits
Photos and details arrive before the visit, so quotes are more accurate.
- Prices and quotes are prepared and sent by your team — never generated and sent automatically
- Safety-critical or emergency requests (gas, electrical danger, flooding) are escalated immediately to a person

AI lead management for an electrical contractor: enquiry triage and quote follow-up
This illustrative example shows AI lead management for a contractor whose enquiries arrive by web form, email and phone while the team is on site. The proposed workflow structures each enquiry, checks it against the service area and job list, asks for missing details and keeps unanswered quotes in a follow-up queue, while pricing and safety advice stay with the electricians.

This illustrative example describes an AI receptionist for home services that answers calls and web chats outside business hours. It identifies itself as automated, collects contact and job details, triggers the business's approved escalation message for predefined emergency indicators and hands a structured summary to staff, without diagnosing faults or promising arrival times.
