You’re on a job. Grace is on the phone.
Electricians, pest control, garage doors, landscaping, pool service, cleaning, and handyman crews all have the same problem. The phone rings while you’re working. Grace answers as your business, books the job, and texts you the details.
Caller“My garage door spring snapped and my car’s stuck inside. I need to get to work.”
Grace“Sorry about that. I can get a tech out this morning. The earliest I have is 9 to 11. Can I confirm the address and best number?”
$351Hiring an electrician costs $351 on average.1 Miss 5 calls a week and that’s about $7,600 a month in jobs going to your competitor.
27%Home services companies miss 27% of inbound calls,2 like the ones that ring while you’re on a ladder or driving.
Examples, not guarantees: the math (5 × $351 × 52 ÷ 12) assumes each missed call would have become a paying job. Your numbers depend on your call mix and close rate.
Where home service businesses lose business on the phone
Small crews can’t staff a phone
When it’s you and two techs, nobody’s free to answer, and the first business that picks up gets the job.
Evenings and weekends are when customers call
Homeowners call after work and on Saturdays, which is exactly when you’re off the clock.
Voicemail kills leads
Most callers won’t leave a message. They just call the next listing.
How Grace handles your calls
Three typical calls, set up with your rules. These are illustrative scenarios. Your Grace uses your wording, your prices, and your schedule.
Caller“Half my house lost power and the breaker won’t reset.”
Grace“If you smell burning or see scorch marks, leave and call 911. Otherwise, I’ll flag this as urgent and get the on-call electrician to call you.”
Caller“We’re seeing scorpions in the house. Can you come out?”
Grace“Yes. I can book an inspection and first treatment Monday morning or Tuesday afternoon. Any pets or kids we should plan around?”
Caller“I want a quote to redo my backyard with turf and pavers.”
Grace“I’ll book a free design estimate. Do you have a rough size, and are you hoping to start this season?”
She takes the calls. You keep control.

Compliance notes for home service businesses
- Safety first: Electrical and gas hazards get your approved safety script, including telling callers to call emergency services when needed.
- Licensing: Grace doesn’t diagnose or promise work your license doesn’t cover. She books, and your pros decide.
- Recording and AI disclosure: Calls can open with a recording notice and an AI disclosure. Some countries and states require every party’s consent to record, so we set this up for where you operate.
- Texting: Customer texts follow your country’s carrier registration (A2P 10DLC in the U.S.) and opt-out rules, confirmed during setup.
General information, not legal advice. Requirements vary by country, state or province, and industry. Have your own counsel review your setup and scripts before launch.
