Callwave

Thanks for calling Ridgeway Contracting. I'm the AI receptionist. Are you calling about a new project or an existing job?

Caller

We're planning a kitchen remodel and would like someone to come take a look.

I can take the details for your team. What's the project address?

BUILT FOR THE FIELD

For the calls that come in while you're getting work done.

While your crew is on site

Answer new inquiries without stopping the work. Callwave collects the project details so your team can follow up prepared.

After your office closes

Give callers a useful next step after hours — whether that's requesting an estimate, leaving project details, or arranging a callback.

When your office is already on another call

Use Callwave as backup when your team can't pick up. Keep your existing number and choose when calls are forwarded.

ACCURATE QUALIFICATION

Know what the caller needs before you call back.

  • New project or existing job?
  • What type of work is needed?
  • Where is the project located?
  • What timeline does the caller have in mind?
  • What's the best callback number?
  • Should the next step be a callback, an estimate appointment, or a transfer?

You choose which details Callwave collects and when it books an appointment or hands the call to your team.

Not every call is a new lead. Callwave can also capture messages about existing projects and route requests according to your instructions.
