Built for roofers who are up on a roof, not by the phone.
AI receptionist and missed-call text-back for roofing companies. When you're on a steep slope and the phone's down in the truck, Helm answers the call you missed, gets the details on the leak or the storm damage, and texts you a qualified lead.
After a storm, the calls come all at once.
When a storm rolls through, every homeowner with a leak or missing shingles calls at the same time, and you're a story up with both hands busy. Miss the call and they move to the next roofer. Helm answers the ones you can't, figures out what kind of job it is, and sends you the lead with the details already gathered.
How Helm works for roofers.
No new phone system, no app. Helm sits behind the number you already have and goes to work the moment a call goes unanswered.
The call comes in
A customer calls and you can't pick up because you're up on a roof. Helm catches it through conditional call forwarding, so nothing changes on their end.
Helm answers in seconds
Before they move on to the next company, Helm texts the caller back (or answers by voice) and starts the conversation.
It asks the right questions
Helm finds out what's wrong, gets the address, and asks for a couple of times that work, one question at a time. It never quotes a price or promises a time it can't keep.
You get a lead ready to book
A clean summary lands in your phone and inbox: name, problem, address, timing, and the full conversation. You call back and book the work.
From missed call to booked job.
A real exchange in Helm's voice, and the lead that lands in your phone when it wraps.
Delivered by text and email the moment the conversation wraps.
Helm for roofers, answered.
Yes. When you're up on a roof and can't get to the phone, Helm answers the call you miss and texts the homeowner back within seconds. It finds out whether it's an active leak, storm damage, or a replacement they're pricing out, gets the address and a couple of times they're available, and sends you a qualified lead by text and email. It sits behind your existing business number, so nothing changes for the caller.
Yes, that's when it matters most. Helm answers calls in parallel and replies within seconds, so a surge of storm calls doesn't end with half of them going to the next roofer. Capture covers up to 100 conversations a month; Convert at $249/month adds an always-on AI voice receptionist and unlimited SMS conversations for the weeks after a storm when the phone won't stop.
No. Helm never quotes a price for a roof it hasn't seen. It explains you'd need to come take a look to give a real number, and captures whether it's a repair or a full replacement, plus what they're seeing, so you arrive prepared. It won't commit your calendar either; it gathers the times the customer is free and leaves the decision to you.
No. Helm uses conditional call forwarding, a standard carrier feature, so unanswered calls to your existing number route to Helm automatically, with no new hardware or app. You keep the number on your trucks and yard signs, and it works with Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, and US Cellular. Verizon users disable carrier voicemail first, which setup covers.
Helm starts at $75/month on the Capture plan: missed-call text-back, lead qualification, and lead summaries by text and email for up to 100 conversations a month. Convert is $249/month and adds the 24/7 AI voice receptionist plus unlimited SMS, which pays off during storm season. All plans are billed monthly with no contract.
