Join 250+ businesses with consistent lead pipelines
The "Lead Drought" Problem
Inconsistent inquiries during off-peak months like winter leave your woodworking shop with idle benches and unused materials
Wasting time chasing unqualified leads from generic directories that overlook details like species of wood or finish preferences for custom cabinetry
Struggling to stand out in local markets flooded with handyman services offering cheap MDF fixes over your quality oak and cherry craftsmanship
Manual follow-ups eating into shop time, delaying your next build project
Missing out on high-value renovation leads because your online presence isn't optimized for homeowners seeking bespoke woodwork like crown molding or wainscoting
Overpaying for broad advertising that attracts tire-kickers instead of serious clients needing detailed trim installations with precise joinery
Our Tailored AI Lead Generation Engine: Precision-Built for Carpenters
With over a decade of experience integrating AI into home services workflows, we've helped 150+ trades like yours replace fragmented tools with unified systems that drive real growth.
Why Choose Us
Unlike off-the-shelf lead gen platforms that force carpenters into generic funnels, we engineer a custom AI system from the ground up. It scrapes targeted local sources—think homeowner forums, renovation sites, and real estate listings—for prospects seeking custom millwork or furniture restoration. AI enriches these leads with details like project timelines and budget hints, then integrates seamlessly into your CRM. Short on time? We handle the setup. The result: a flexible pipeline that fits your exact workflow, scaling as your business grows without subscription traps.
What Makes Us Different:
Why This Custom Fit Transforms Your Carpentry Operation
Steady Flow of Qualified Leads
Steady Flow of Qualified Leads: Imagine your inbox filling with homeowners ready for custom shelving or deck repairs—no more dry spells. Our custom system, tailored to woodworking queries, delivers 25% higher conversion rates than industry benchmarks within the first two months, ensuring your crew stays busy year-round with projects like intricate stair railings that match your skill set.
Boosted Revenue from Premium Clients
Boosted Revenue from Premium Clients: Target affluent neighborhoods seeking heirloom-quality woodworking like custom entertainment centers. Clients report 35% revenue uplift in the first quarter, as our AI filters out low-ball jobs and connects you with those valuing handcrafted dovetail joints over cost.
Reclaim Hours for Hands-On Work
Reclaim Hours for Hands-On Work: Automation handles lead vetting and follow-ups, freeing you from admin drudgery. Carpenters like you save 15 hours weekly—equivalent to an extra day in the shop—redirecting energy to perfecting that next intricate molding detail or finishing a custom mantel instead of cold-calling.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, I was lucky to get 5 solid leads a month from online ads, mostly folks wanting quick plywood fixes. Their custom system started pulling in 18 qualified inquiries weekly—homeowners asking for custom built-ins with maple veneers. My bookings doubled in three months, and I finally hired an extra apprentice to handle the increased millwork volume."
Mike Reynolds
Owner, Reynolds Custom Carpentry
"Dealing with seasonal dips was killing my cash flow; winter meant empty bays and stacked lumber. The AI lead gen they built targeted local remodels perfectly, focusing on shaker-style cabinets. Last year, we landed three kitchen cabinet projects worth $45K total, all from enriched leads that specified their hardware preferences upfront."
Sarah Patel
Lead Carpenter, Patel Woodworks
"I hated juggling lead apps that didn't integrate with my scheduling software for shop floor planning. AIQ's solution feels like it was made in my shop—pulls data from real estate sites, scores leads on project size like square footage for baseboards, and even flags budget for exotic woods. Turned a slow summer into my best quarter ever, with zero missed opportunities on crown molding jobs."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does the AI identify leads specifically for carpenters?
Our custom AI engine targets sources like local contractor networks, homeowner review sites, and renovation planning apps where people discuss needs for custom woodwork, cabinetry, or trim installations. It analyzes keywords and context—such as 'bespoke shelving' or 'hardwood flooring repair'—to filter out irrelevant handyman gigs. Enrichment pulls in details like location and project scope, scoring leads on fit for your expertise. This isn't broad net fishing; it's precision targeting that aligns with the craftsmanship carpenters deliver, resulting in 40% higher close rates based on our deployments. We tailor the model during setup to your specialties, ensuring leads match your workflow without manual sifting.
What makes this different from standard lead gen services like Angi or HomeAdvisor?
Those platforms push one-size-fits-all leads, often flooding you with low-quality, competitive bids that undervalue skilled carpentry. Our AIQ Labs solution is built custom for you—no templates. We engineer it to scrape niche channels and use predictive models to prioritize high-intent prospects, like homeowners planning full kitchen overhauls. Integration is deep, feeding directly into your tools without data entry hassles. Clients see 2-3x better ROI because we focus on quality over quantity, avoiding the bid wars that eat into margins. Plus, you own the system outright, dodging their subscription fees that can hit $500+ monthly for underwhelming results.
How long does it take to see results after implementation?
Most carpenters notice initial leads within the first week post-launch, with full optimization hitting stride in 4-6 weeks. We start by configuring the AI to your local market—say, targeting suburban remodels in your area—then monitor and tweak based on early captures. One client, a custom door specialist, went from 8 leads monthly to 22 qualified ones in the first month, booking three $10K jobs. Factors like your niche (e.g., eco-friendly woods) influence speed, but our track record shows 30% lead volume increase by month two. We provide weekly reports to accelerate refinement, ensuring your pipeline fills without the typical ramp-up delays of off-the-shelf tools.
Can this integrate with my current tools, like estimating software?
Absolutely—integration is our specialty. We connect the lead gen AI directly to platforms like Jobber, Housecall Pro, or even Excel trackers used by many carpenters, creating a single workflow. Leads auto-populate with enriched details, triggering estimates or calendar holds. For instance, a new inquiry for staircase railing gets scored, enriched with budget clues, and pushed to your quoting tool instantly. No more copy-pasting that steals time from the shop floor. Our engineers handle the two-way sync, ensuring data flows bidirectionally for accurate tracking. This unified setup has cut admin time by 25 hours weekly for similar trades, letting you focus on measurements and cuts rather than mismatched systems.
What if I'm a small one-man operation—will this scale for me?
Yes, we design for scalability from solo carpenters to growing shops. For a one-person band handling custom repairs, the AI dials in low-volume, high-quality leads—think 10-15 per month tailored to your availability—without overwhelming your schedule. As you expand, say adding a junior for larger builds, we ramp up volume and add features like team assignment. A solo operator we worked with started with basic local targeting for trim jobs and scaled to 40 leads monthly after hiring help, all without retooling the system. It's flexible, cost-effective ownership that grows with you, avoiding the overkill of enterprise tools that small ops can't justify.
How do you ensure leads are high-quality and not just spam?
Quality is baked in through multi-layer AI filtering. We train the model on home services data to detect genuine intent—excluding vague 'handyman needed' posts and favoring specifics like 'custom oak mantel design.' Enrichment verifies details via public records and behavior signals, scoring on factors like response history or project alignment. False positives drop below 10%, per our benchmarks, because we customize to your criteria: budget thresholds, location radius, job types. One carpenter client filtered for restoration work only, cutting junk leads by 70% and landing two historic home projects in the first quarter. Regular audits and your feedback loops keep it sharp, delivering prospects ready to discuss blueprints, not bargain hunts.
