Challenges Roofing Businesses Face
Roofing professionals face unique communication challenges. Here's how Dialbox solves them.
Cannot Answer Calls While on Roofs
When you're three stories up with a nail gun, taking phone calls is dangerous. Your hands are occupied with safety equipment and roofing materials.
Impact: Roofing contractors lose 50% of storm damage calls to voicemail. With emergency repairs worth $500-2,000 and re-roofs at $15,000+, missed calls mean major lost revenue.
Storm Surge Call Volume
After major storms, call volume can increase 10x overnight. Every homeowner with damage calls simultaneously, and you can't physically answer them all while assessing damage.
Impact: Missing storm calls means losing to competitors who answer first. Homeowners often call 3-4 roofers and book whoever responds fastest.
Emergency vs Routine Prioritization
Active leaks causing interior damage need immediate response. Routine inspection requests can wait. Distinguishing urgency while working is impossible from voicemail.
Impact: Treating all calls equally means either rushing dangerous roof work or losing genuine emergencies. Emergency calls that go to voicemail rarely call back.
Insurance Claim Coordination
Many roofing jobs involve insurance claims. Homeowners need to understand the claim process, documentation requirements, and how you work with adjusters.
Impact: Clients unfamiliar with insurance processes need guidance. Poor initial communication can lose high-value insurance restoration jobs to competitors who explain the process better.

The Challenge
Owner Marcus Thompson was losing thousands in storm damage work because his crews couldn't answer phones while tarping damaged roofs. During the July 2023 hailstorm, he received 87 calls in 3 days but only connected with 23 homeowners. His competitors captured the rest.
The Solution

Results
"After the last major hailstorm, Dialbox captured 94% of calls while my crews were on roofs. That storm alone generated $180K in jobs we would have lost. The ROI is incredible."
