AI receptionist for roofers

You stay on the roof. Sayora answers.

Your business already has its own AI receptionist. For storm damage, leaking roofs and flat-roof quotes, Sayora answers while you're up the ladder, captures what happened and where the water is getting in, then sends you the details before you climb down.

Sound familiar?

The calls you miss are the expensive ones.

One working day. Three calls worth catching before voicemail.

Last night's storm took tiles off half the street. The phone starts before eight and doesn't stop. You're already up a ladder on the first job of the day.

When you get down, there are missed numbers but no addresses, damage details or sense of which call needs you first.

Storm damage

You're mid-strip on a two-storey semi, harness clipped, both hands full. The phone goes in your pocket. Twice.

By the time you're down, there are two numbers you don't recognise and no voicemails. One caller had a damp patch spreading across a bedroom ceiling.

Roof leak

Family dinner. The phone goes and you let it ring out. They wanted a price for replacing the flat roof on the garage.

An average flat-roof replacement is around £2,500. Until you ring back, the job is sitting behind an unknown number.

Tuesday, 8.40am. The morning after the storm. You're already up on a roof three streets away.

Transcript

Carol and your receptionist

Sayora

Hi, you've reached Pete's roofing business. I'm Sayora, the AI receptionist. Pete's up on a roof this morning, but I can take the details and check his diary. What's happened?

Caller

Morning. The wind last night's taken a load of tiles off our roof, and there's a damp patch coming through the bedroom ceiling. More rain forecast tonight.

Sayora

I'm sorry, that's the last thing you need. Can I take the address? And is it a two-storey house or a bungalow?

Caller

22 Fairfax Road, LS8. Two-storey semi.

Sayora

Thanks. Is water coming in yet, or just the damp patch so far? And can you see from the ground where the tiles have come off?

Caller

Just the patch so far. There's a bare strip up near the chimney, five or six tiles maybe. A couple of them are lying in the garden.

Sayora

That's really helpful. Pete keeps space for storm damage, so he can do a patch-up before tonight's rain and price the full repair while he's up there. He's got a slot between four and five this afternoon. Shall I book you in?

Caller

Yes please. It's Carol Brearley, 07700 900528.

Sayora

You're booked between four and five this afternoon, Carol. Pete will ring when he's on his way. If anything changes before then, just ring me back on this number.

What it can doWhat yours can do

Built for the way roofers actually work.

  • Answers while you are on the roof

    Forward calls to Sayora while you are up the ladder, driving or finished for the day. Each caller gets an answer while you stay on the job.

  • Trained on your roofing business

    Sayora uses the services, areas and answers you give it. Callers can ask about slate, tile, flat roofs or gutters without waiting for you to ring back.

  • Sends you the call summary

    Name, number, address, what's come off and where the water is getting in. The details reach you when the call ends.

  • Books the look-over live

    Connect your calendar and Sayora can offer the survey times you make available, then book the chosen slot during the call.

  • Screens the cold sales calls

    Tell Sayora which sales pitches to decline. Roofing enquiries still get captured and sent to you.

Fair questions

What roofers ask before they book.

Can an answering service cope with the morning after a storm?

Storm mornings are what Sayora is for. It answers each forwarded call while you stay on the roof, then gives you a separate summary with the caller's details and what they reported. You get a list you can prioritise instead of a screen full of unknown numbers.

What does Sayora actually say when someone rings about a leaking roof?

Sayora tells them it is an AI first, then asks for the property, whether water is coming in, what they can see from the ground and how soon they need a roofer. It does not diagnose the roof or tell them it is safe. The recording, transcript and summary are waiting for you after the call.

Can Sayora quote prices for roofing work over the phone?

Only what you've told it. If you do not price work sight unseen, set Sayora up to explain that a look-over comes first, then book it in. If you have fixed prices, like a gutter clean or a per-tile rate for replacements, it can share them.

What about insurance jobs and storm damage claims?

Sayora cannot deal with the insurer for you, but it can capture what happened, when it happened, the damage the caller can see and whether they have opened a claim. It is all in the summary and transcript for you to take forward.

Do I have to change my number or redo the signwriting?

No. You keep your number, and the one on the van stays right. You get a dedicated UK number for Sayora and forward your calls to it whenever you can't pick up: on a roof, driving, evenings, or around the clock. You're in control of the forwarding, and you can switch it off anytime.

What does it cost, and am I tied in?

It is £49 a month on early access, with unlimited minutes and everything included. There is no contract, and you can cancel anytime. You can try a receptionist built from your website before you claim it.
