For Patio Cover & Pergola Companies
Incoming Call...
Homeowner
"Hi, I need a quote for a pergola in my backyard. Can someone come out this week?"
AI Receptionist
"Absolutely! I can schedule a free consultation. We have Thursday at 10 AM or Friday at 2 PM available. Which works better?"
✓ Consultation Booked • Thursday 10 AM
You're losing high-value projects every day because you can't answer the phone. Homeowners call after work, no-shows waste your estimator's time, and your team can't keep up with quote requests.
A homeowner searches for patio covers at 8 PM, calls, and gets voicemail. By the time you call back the next morning, they've already scheduled consultations with three competitors who answered immediately.
While you're on a site consultation, five more calls come in. Quote requests, design questions, permit updates—you can't be everywhere at once. Leads get frustrated waiting, and you lose projects to competitors with better availability.
You drive across town, prep your materials, and show up at the property. 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 $10K+ project.
