What a missed call costs a Cornwall roofing shop
Phone rings first4.2s response30-day guarantee
Your crew's finishing a tear-off and you're up top checking the deck rot. The phone rings in the cab below. By the time you climb down, the message has rolled to voicemail and the homeowner has hung up.
What Avidra does
Avidra answers your phone, however you've wired it. Live with AI voice, or text-back if the call goes missed, or both running together. The caller gets a real response. You get the captured lead.
The text doesn't replace the human conversation. It buys time for it. You still call back. You still close the job. Avidra just makes sure the lead is warm and the basics about the homeowners are in your inbox before you do.
Where the math breaks even
Break-even is one recovered job a month for almost every plan tier. If Avidra catches one roofing lead in the trial that would have gone to voicemail, you're already ahead on the year. The trial period is 14 days, so the math has the chance to prove itself before you're paying.
How you wire it up
Avidra runs two ways. Keep your existing business number and forward to Avidra only when you can't pick up. The caller reaches you first. The AI handles the miss. Or use the Avidra number directly and let AI pick up every call, transferring to you when the caller asks. Most shops start with the first setup. The second works better once you've grown past one person on the phone.
The Free tier includes both AI voice answering and SMS text-back, so the pickup-mode choice doesn't cost extra.
Where Avidra stops
Avidra handles the intake call, the back-and-forth qualifying, and the relay messages you ask it to send to your customers. The phone is the part it owns. The work past it stays with you and your existing tools.
The text won't quote a tear-off. It won't estimate a roof age over the phone. It won't promise an insurance-approved scope. The intake captures enough to triage. The actual roof and the actual quote stay yours, after you've been on the ladder.

73% of homeowners don't leave a voicemail. They call the next roofer on Google.
Avidra catches them in 4.2 seconds.
Two people on the phones, not just one
The customer-facing AI is one half of the product. The other half is yours. Text the Avidra number any natural-language instruction like 'text Dave I'm running 15 late' or 'show me Friday's bookings.' Avidra relays the message or pulls the data. Most owners forget this is part of the product until the first time they use it from a job site.
Calls roofers in Cornwall actually take
The calls that land most often go something like this. Insurance inspection booking after a hail event. Ice dam damage showing on a top-floor ceiling after a thaw. Missing shingles after a high-wind day. Skylight that started dripping after a heavy rain. Each one is a job you'd close if you could pick up the phone.
After-hours patterns are tighter. The urgency is higher and the timeline is shorter. Tarp call after storm damage, can't wait until morning. Active leak during a rainstorm, water coming through the ceiling. Whoever answers first books it. Everyone else gets the voicemail tone.
What the year looks like
Peak roughly April through October. Storm-driven spikes outside that window. Winter work is mostly emergency repair and tarp jobs.
Most roofers can predict the peaks. The trick is keeping pickup steady through them. Avidra doesn't surge-price during your busy weeks and doesn't go quiet during the slow ones.
How setup actually works
Setup is forwarding plus a script. Your existing business number forwards to Avidra so the AI picks up live calls and catches the ones that ring through to voicemail. You edit the default intake script in both directions. Voice and SMS share the same questions.
Most owners are live the same day. The test is a single call from another phone. The AI answers the call, walks the caller through the intake script, and captures the lead. After that, ring busy and watch the text-back fire.
Why speed matters more than channel
The lead is warm for about five minutes after the call. After that, the caller has scrolled to the next name and most likely already dialed. Email lands too slowly to matter for booking decisions made in that first five minutes. A text-back inside seconds keeps the caller engaged through a short intake while you finish the current job. By the time you call back, the lead is qualified and already expecting your voice.
After-hours and on-the-ground in Cornwall
Working-at-Heights training is mandatory for any crew working over three metres above grade in Ontario, and WSIB clearance is required to set foot on a customer's property.
Common questions
Will it tell the homeowner to call insurance first?
If you set the script to mention insurance, yes. Most roofers add a 'have your insurance info ready' line for storm-damage calls.
Will it work for storm-chase calls?
Yes. The intake can branch on hail or wind events and capture the storm date for insurance correlation.
What does it say about pricing?
Whatever you've approved. Most roofers default to a 'we'll quote on site' line because pricing depends on what's actually up there.
Can it handle insurance-adjuster calls differently?
Yes. Adjuster-identified calls route to a separate intake that captures claim number and inspection window.
Does it handle commercial flat-roof inquiries?
Yes. Commercial intake is a separate path that captures roof type, building age, and existing warranty status.
