What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Round-the-Clock Revenue Streams for Your Painting Business
Capture Every After-Hours Lead Without Hiring Extra Staff
Capture Every After-Hours Lead Without Hiring Extra Staff: Painting pros know inquiries spike evenings and weekends for jobs like epoxy garage floors or accent wall murals. Our AI agents handle 24/7 calls, qualifying needs instantly and scheduling site visits within 24 hours. Result? A 40% uplift in booked jobs, per industry benchmarks from the Painting Contractors Association, ensuring you never miss a high-value repaint while your competitors sleep on opportunities.
Boost Customer Satisfaction with Instant, Expert Responses
Boost Customer Satisfaction with Instant, Expert Responses: Homeowners expect prompt replies for time-sensitive jobs like ceiling drywall repairs or stucco patching. Our agents provide tailored advice, such as low-VOC paint recommendations or moisture-resistant sealant options, right away—often resolving basic queries on the spot. This builds trust fast—clients report 25% higher satisfaction scores in post-job surveys—turning one-off gigs into loyal referrals for future kitchen remodels in your local market.
Streamline Operations and Cut Administrative Overload
Streamline Operations and Cut Administrative Overload: No more sifting through voicemails at dawn for urgent cabinet refinishing or tile grout repairs. AI logs details directly into your CRM like Housecall Pro, flagging high-priority jobs such as water-damaged baseboards for next-day dispatch. Save your team 15 hours weekly on call handling, freeing them for on-site installations. Enterprise-grade efficiency means more crews tackling fence staining projects, less desk time chasing leads.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ's voice agent, we'd lose half our evening calls for kitchen cabinet refinishing or custom shelving installs. Now, it books estimates on the spot—last month alone, we added three full-house interior repaint jobs from what used to be voicemail ghosts, generating an extra $8,000 in revenue. It's like having a night-shift scheduler who never tires and always upsells add-ons like trim detailing."
Mike Rivera
Owner, Rivera Residential Painting & Finishes, Serving Suburban Chicago
"Integrated this with our Jobber setup, and it's transformed how we handle trim and molding inquiries for baseboard replacements or wainscoting projects. A client called at 10 PM about water damage patching on crown molding; the AI set a morning site assessment and even sent prep tips via text. We've seen a 35% jump in weekend bookings for exterior siding touch-ups without adding staff, all while maintaining our 4.8-star Google rating."
Sarah Chen
Operations Manager, Precision Coatings & Drywall Services, Based in Seattle Metro Area
"As a small crew focusing on commercial exteriors like storefront facade refreshes, after-hours gaps killed us during rainy season. The AI agent now qualifies bids accurately, even discussing weatherproof sealants for aluminum siding. In the first quarter, it captured leads worth $15K for parking lot striping and brick repointing that we'd have missed—game-changer for scaling without burnout, especially with our lean team of five."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the AI voice agent handle specific painting inquiries like color matching?
Our agents are custom-trained on your service catalog, so they can discuss details like Sherwin-Williams shades or low-VOC options right away. For instance, if a caller asks about matching a living room wall to an existing trim, the AI pulls from your predefined responses, asks clarifying questions, and even suggests virtual color tools. It then books a consultation or sends a sample kit info packet. This isn't generic chit-chat; we've seen it convert 22% more vague inquiries into site visits by providing expert-level guidance without a human on the line. Integration with your CRM ensures all details transfer seamlessly for follow-up.
What if a call requires human intervention for a large commercial painting job?
The AI is smart enough to detect complexity, like multi-building facade projects, and seamlessly transfers to your team with a full transcript and key notes. It qualifies first—budget, timeline, surface type—to avoid wasting your experts' time. In testing with painting firms, this handover happens in under 30 seconds, preserving the conversation's flow. Post-call, you get a dashboard summary, so nothing falls through. This hybrid approach ensures 24/7 coverage without overwhelming your crew, especially during peak seasons when big bids roll in.
Can this integrate with my existing scheduling software for painters?
Absolutely. We specialize in two-way API connections to tools like Housecall Pro or Jobber, common in home services. The AI checks real-time availability for your crews, books slots for estimates or touch-ups, and updates everything automatically—no manual entry. For example, if a homeowner wants an exterior repaint next week, it factors in weather APIs to suggest optimal days. Clients report 40% faster scheduling this way, reducing no-shows and keeping your calendar packed. Setup takes about two weeks, with full customization to your workflow.
Is the AI voice agent compliant with regulations for home services businesses?
Yes, we build in compliance from the start, adhering to TCPA for calls and data privacy laws like CCPA. Recordings are optional and encrypted, perfect for documenting insured jobs or client agreements on prep work. In the painting industry, where liability for surface damage matters, our agents include disclaimers and consent prompts. We've deployed similar systems for regulated trades, ensuring zero fines. Plus, the tech is SOC 2 certified, giving you peace of mind as you scale leads without legal headaches.
How much does a custom AI voice agent cost for a mid-sized painting company?
Pricing starts at $2,500 for initial build and integration, with monthly maintenance around $300—far below a full-time receptionist at $40K yearly. For a 10-person painting outfit handling 50 calls weekly, ROI hits in two months via captured leads. We tailor quotes after discovery, factoring in call volume and features like advanced analytics. No long-term contracts; you own the system outright. Compare that to generic services charging per minute—ours is a one-time investment in a unified tool that pays dividends through every booked job.
What kind of support do you provide after deployment?
Ongoing support is baked in: weekly performance reviews, script tweaks based on call data, and 24/7 tech monitoring to keep uptime at 99.9%. For painters, this means optimizing for seasonal spikes, like spring exterior rushes. Our team, with home services backgrounds, jumps on issues fast—average resolution under 4 hours. We also train your staff via quick sessions on dashboard use. This isn't set-it-and-forget-it; it's a partnership ensuring your AI evolves, capturing more referrals and reducing after-hours stress year-round.
