"Hi, I need a privacy fence installed. Can you give me a quote for my backyard?"

The Problem

FENCE INSTALLATION COMPANIES
KEEP LOSING JOBS

You're losing money every day you miss estimate requests. Homeowners call during jobs, no-shows waste your time, and your crew can't keep up. There's a better way.

You Miss Calls When It Matters Most

A homeowner finds your business at 9 PM, calls for a fence estimate, and gets voicemail. By the time you check messages in the morning, they've already booked with a competitor who answered.

The Cost
$3,500/project
Average job value lost

Your Team Is Drowning in Calls

While you're installing a fence, three more calls come in. Estimate requests, site visit scheduling, material questions—you can't be everywhere at once. Customers get frustrated waiting, and you lose jobs.

The Cost
40+ calls/day
Per fence installer

Site Visits No-Show and You Lose Them Forever

You clear your schedule, drive to the property, and show up. They don't. You send one follow-up text that gets ignored. That's it—they're gone. No second chance, no recovery, just wasted time and another lost project.
