The problem

Every missed call is a job walking away

Roofing enquiries spike exactly when you’re least able to answer — mid-job on a roof, or in a storm when every homeowner with a leak is ringing round at once. Miss the call and the survey, the repair, and the insurance work all go to whoever picks up first.

Call2SMS catches them for you. The moment a call rings out, the caller gets a text in your business name. The AI asks what’s wrong with the roof, the property type and the address — then sends you the lead so you can book a survey when you’re back on the ground.

Leak, storm damage, missing tiles, flat-roof or guttering — captured clearly.

Address & access

Where the job is and access notes, ready for a survey.

Roof’s leaking into the bedroom after last night’s storm
Sorry to hear that — we can help. Is it actively dripping now, and is it a pitched or flat roof?
Dripping now, pitched roof, terraced house
Understood. Can I take your name, address and best number so we can get someone out to survey it?

The smarter option

The modern alternative to a roofer answering service

A traditional answering service puts a call centre between you and your customers, charges per call or per minute, and ties you into a contract — and they still can’t book the job for you.

Call2SMS does the job that matters: it makes sure no missed caller is ignored. Every unanswered call gets an instant, on-brand text, a real two-way SMS conversation captures the enquiry, and the lead lands on your phone — 24/7, for a fixed low monthly price, with no contract. Compare the options on our cost comparison page.

Roofers — common questions

It’s the smarter alternative. Rather than a call centre answering live, Call2SMS texts every missed caller back instantly, captures the roof problem and address over SMS, and sends you the lead. You win the surveys and repairs without per-call answering-service costs.

Yes — that’s when it’s most valuable. When a storm has every homeowner ringing round, Call2SMS replies to all of them at once, captures each leak and address, and queues the leads so none are lost in the surge.

Yes. You set the questions, so the AI asks about the roof problem, whether it’s actively leaking, the property type and the address — a survey-ready lead, not just a number.

No. Keep your existing number and set up conditional call forwarding so only missed calls reach Call2SMS, or take a fresh UK number from us.

From £37/month, no contract, with a free trial. One recovered roof repair usually pays for the service many times over.
