Why answering in the caller's language matters in Berkeley
In Berkeley, 12.8% of residents are Hispanic and 8.9% of people speak Spanish at home. That is a minority of callers, but one caller who hangs up because no one speaks her language is one lost job. Clara opens in English, asks which language the caller prefers, and continues in that language. The caller does not have to repeat the address or the problem twice.
A normal day with Clara
Picture a Monday after a windstorm. Fifteen people call before ten in the morning: some from Berkeley, some from Emeryville and Albany, and one from El Cerrito who saw a drip in the garage. While you are on a roof in Piedmont, Clara takes each call, verifies the name and address, checks your calendar, and offers the first free inspection slot. When you come down, you have 15 leads with summaries and the booked times already set.

When hail hits Alameda County

Alameda County has few hail reports since 2015 and the largest hail recorded was 0.25 inches, so calls here mostly come from leaks, aging roofs and wind damage rather than hail.
