AI Receptionist for Roofers in Pasadena, California

What a missed call costs a small roofer in Pasadena

A small roofing company in Pasadena lives on the calls that come in during the week. If a homeowner calls at noon and nobody picks up, they usually call the next roofer on their list. They never learn you could have come out the same day. A missed call rarely comes back, and the job goes to whoever answered.

A normal day with Clara

It is a weekday, almost one in the afternoon. You just came down from a roof in Pasadena near Altadena and you are about to eat lunch. The phone rings: a landlord with three rentals in South Pasadena says wind lifted shingles on two of them. Clara answers, asks the language, takes the name and address, checks open slots on your calendar and offers an inspection tomorrow at eight. She reads back the date and address and asks for confirmation. By the time you finish your sandwich, the summary is already on your phone.

What you get after every call

• An immediate alert on your phone with the caller's name and problem.
• A summary of the case, translated into the language you choose.
• The appointment already on your calendar, with date, time and a verified address.
• A one-tap SMS confirmation sent from your own phone, only with the customer's consent.

When hail hits Los Angeles County

Since 2015, NOAA logged 9 hail reports in Los Angeles County on 5 different days; the largest stone was 1.75 inches. 1 reports were 1.75 inches or larger (golf ball size), the size that usually damages shingles. There were also 35 thunderstorm wind reports.

County records show few hail reports since 2015, so in Pasadena calls usually come from leaks, aging roofs and wind damage more than from hail.
