What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's chatbot, we'd lose half our weekend leads to unanswered calls about urgent roof leaks from recent storms. Now, it handles initial assessments for shingle damage and books inspections overnight. We've added three full remodel projects, including a $25K roof replacement, in the last quarter alone—it's like having an extra admin who never sleeps."
Mike Rivera
Owner, Rivera Roofing & Construction, serving suburban Chicago homeowners
"Our team was swamped with calls during kitchen reno season, missing follow-ups on granite countertop installs and appliance hookups. The custom AI integrates with our scheduling app perfectly, responding to queries about timelines even at 2 AM. Response times dropped from hours to seconds, and we've seen a 28% uptick in booked jobs, including two $30K kitchen overhauls, since rollout three months ago."
Sarah Patel
Operations Manager, Patel Home Remodeling LLC, specializing in modern kitchen upgrades in Atlanta
"I was skeptical about AI for something as hands-on as general contracting, but this chatbot nails it. It fields questions on foundation pouring for basement additions and even pulls lumber quotes from our system. No more after-hours phone tag—last month, it captured a $15K composite deck project that came in on a Sunday evening during grilling season."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the AI chatbot handle technical questions about home repairs?
Our custom AI is trained specifically on your service offerings and past project data, so it can explain things like why a foundation crack needs immediate attention or the best insulation for a attic remodel. For instance, if a homeowner asks about wiring for a new kitchen addition, it draws from your electrical standards to provide accurate, branded advice. If the query gets too nuanced—like specific load-bearing calculations—it seamlessly transfers to your team via integrated chat or call. This setup has helped contractors resolve 70% of initial inquiries without human intervention, based on our deployments, keeping your experts free for on-site work while maintaining that trusted, knowledgeable voice clients expect from general contractors.
Can it integrate with my existing scheduling software?
Absolutely. We build deep, two-way API connections to tools like Jobber, Housecall Pro, or even custom calendars, allowing the chatbot to check real-time availability for site visits or estimates. Picture a late-night query for a bathroom remodel consult—the AI pulls your open slots, books it directly, and updates your team's app. No manual entry needed. In one case, a contractor we worked with saw booking errors drop by 90% after integration, capturing leads that previously slipped through during busy install weeks. It's all custom-coded to fit your exact workflow, ensuring smooth handoffs without disrupting your daily operations.
What if a customer needs to speak to a human right away?
The AI is designed to recognize when a conversation requires your expertise, like discussing load-bearing wall removals or custom cabinetry specs. It offers an immediate handoff option, routing the chat or call to your on-duty team member with full context provided—no repeating the story. We set thresholds based on your preferences, such as urgency keywords like 'leaking roof now.' Clients report 85% satisfaction with these escalations, as it feels responsive, not robotic. Plus, post-handover analytics help us refine the AI to handle more over time, reducing interruptions while always prioritizing that personal touch vital in home services.
How secure is the chatbot for handling client data?
Security is non-negotiable in client-relationship industries like yours. We use enterprise-grade encryption for all interactions, complying with standards like GDPR and CCPA, and store data only as needed for context—think project addresses or contact info. Access is role-based, so only authorized team members see sensitive details. For general contractors, this means protecting homeowner blueprints or renovation timelines from breaches. We've audited our systems for vulnerabilities, with zero incidents across 200+ deployments. It's built to safeguard your reputation, ensuring data like emergency repair logs stays confidential and compliant with local privacy laws.
How long does it take to set up and see results?
From initial consult to live deployment, most custom chatbots for contractors take 4-6 weeks, depending on integration complexity. We start with a quick audit of your lead patterns, then build and test iteratively. Results kick in fast—many see 20-30% more captured leads within the first month, like weekend inquiries for deck repairs that convert to jobs. One client went live in under five weeks and booked $20K in additional work from after-hours responses alone. Post-launch, we provide training and monitor for optimizations, ensuring it aligns perfectly with your seasonal demands without long wait times.
Is this scalable as my contracting business grows?
Yes, our architecture is built for growth, handling everything from your current 10-person crew to expanding into multiple sites or specialties like commercial builds. The AI scales automatically with traffic—say, during spring reno rushes—without performance dips. We design it modular, so adding features like voice support or advanced forecasting comes seamlessly. Contractors we've partnered with have doubled their job volume without needing a rebuild, maintaining 99.9% uptime. It's not a quick fix; it's a foundation that evolves with your business, supporting more leads and complex queries as you hire more subs or enter new markets.
