Tell Us About Your Renovation Business
Your project types — full house renovations, period property restoration, fire and flood reinstatement, barn conversions, listed building works — your coverage area, project management approach, and how you want large-scale tender enquiries handled.
We Build Your Renovation-Trained AI
We train the AI with renovation terminology — structural surveys, listed building consent, party wall agreements, phased programme schedules, subcontractor coordination — so it captures project scope, planning status, and budget parameters.
You Focus on the Project, Not the Phone
While you are managing a strip-out on-site or meeting a structural engineer about load-bearing walls, every call is answered. Large renovation consultations, insurance reinstatement enquiries, and developer multi-property programmes captured with full specification.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is text-back critical for renovation specialists?
Renovation specialists spend the entire working day on active project sites — coordinating 6 to 10 subcontractors, resolving structural queries with engineers in real time, reviewing plumber and electrician first-fix coordination, making specification decisions with clients, and managing material deliveries. You are the busiest person in the entire trades sector because every trade on site depends on your real-time management decisions. Your phone rings constantly but answering it means stopping a conversation with the structural engineer about a steel beam specification or leaving the plasterer without direction on a curved wall detail. Every missed call is a potential £30,000 to £200,000 project from a homeowner whose post-purchase excitement fades within 48 hours.
How time-sensitive are post-auction renovation enquiry calls?
Post-auction renovation calls are the most time-sensitive leads in the entire home services sector. The homeowner has just committed to purchasing a property — typically completing within 28 days — and needs a renovation specialist immediately to assess the scope, develop a programme, and start work after completion. Their excitement and anxiety peak within 24 to 48 hours. After that, either a competitor has been appointed or the overwhelming scale of the project creates paralysis and delay. The text-back catches this peak moment within 3 seconds.
Do renovation callers reply to the text with useful project details?
Yes. Renovation callers provide the most detailed text replies of any trade: "just bought a 3-bed Victorian terrace at auction, needs everything — new roof, rewire, replumb, 2 bathrooms, kitchen, complete redecoration, BA area, budget around £80k" or "barn conversion, planning approved, architect engaged, structural engineer report done, need design-and-build contractor, GL area." These detailed replies provide property type, scope, budget, professional team status, and location — enabling you to assess the project viability before the callback.
Is text-back useful for capturing architect and engineer referral calls?
Yes. Architects and structural engineers calling to recommend you for a project need confirmation of your interest and availability. If your phone goes to voicemail during a site management day, they may call their second-choice contractor. The text-back catches the referral within 3 seconds, demonstrating the responsiveness that maintains professional referral relationships providing projects at £50,000 to £500,000.
What does missed call text-back cost?
£29/month as an add-on. Unlimited text-backs included. One rescued consultation from a post-auction homeowner — leading to a £50,000 to £200,000 renovation project — covers the cost for the lifetime of the business.
What is the benefit of missed call text-back for my renovation business?
Renovation teams work in active construction zones all day — demolition hammers, tile cutters, angle grinders, and extraction fans create noise levels where phone calls are physically impossible to hear, let alone answer. You miss calls from homeowners who have spent months saving and planning their dream renovation and are now comparing 2 to 3 companies. These are the highest-value missed calls in home services — each one represents a project worth £10,000 to £150,000. The text-back catches every caller within 3 seconds, asking about their renovation scope and preferred consultation date. At £29 per month, one rescued renovation project per year covers the cost for decades. During the spring and autumn renovation surges when enquiry volumes peak, the text-back ensures no high-value lead is lost to site noise.
What if my renovation specialist business changes its prices or services?
Just drop us a message — routine business updates are free and included in your plan. If you've updated your per-square-metre renovation pricing, added listed building or heritage renovation to your services, or changed your project management availability, we'll update your missed call text-back within 24 hours at no extra charge. This covers the kind of day-to-day changes any renovation specialist business makes: adjusting prices, tweaking your service list, updating opening hours, or changing your service area. We want your AI to always give your customers accurate, up-to-date information about your renovation specialist business.
