The Missed Call Crisis Facing Contractors
Field Technicians Miss 5+ Calls Daily Due to Job Site Coverage Gaps
General contractors often have field teams on-site during peak hours—typically 8 AM to 4 PM—when calls from homeowners seeking emergency repairs, roof inspections, or remodel consultations go unanswered. With 45% of contractors reporting they miss 5 or more calls per day, critical leads for high-margin projects like basement waterproofing, structural framing, or bathroom renovations are lost before they’re even qualified. This gap in job site coverage directly impacts lead conversion and project pipeline growth.
After-Hours Emergency Calls Disappear Without AI-Powered Call Handling
Homeowners frequently call after hours—especially during storms, pipe bursts, or fire damage—seeking immediate help from general contractors. Yet 83% of contractors lose jobs due to missed calls, often because their phones are off or no one is available to answer. Without after-hours call management, urgent leads for storm restoration, foundation repairs, or electrical safety inspections vanish, leading to lost revenue and damaged reputation in a competitive market.
Inconsistent Lead Qualification Leads to Wasted Time on Unqualified Jobs
Without a system for lead qualification, general contractors often spend hours on calls from homeowners who aren’t ready to commit, don’t have budgets, or aren’t in the right service area. Only 12% of contractors have a dedicated receptionist to screen leads using project-specific call scripts. This results in wasted time on non-starters—like those asking for free estimates on custom kitchens or asking about permits they haven’t applied for—reducing productivity and delaying real project starts.
