Lead Qualification & Scoring for Specialty Trade Contractors - Exterior

{"faqs":[{"answer":"Every new lead gets a first reply in seconds — text, email, or call — 24/7/365, including nights, weekends, holidays, and peak wet season. Missed calls get an instant text-back with an offer to book, so a homeowner with water on the floor never hits voicemail. Callers can always reach a human, use text, or book online.","question":"How fast can CallMyLeads respond to emergency basement flooding calls after hours?"},{"answer":"Yes. You set the qualification questions, the first message, and the exact criteria for what counts as qualified. Leads are scored automatically against your rules, and only leads that meet your bar get routed to your team — the rest get nurture follow-up until they're ready to book.","question":"Can I control what counts as a qualified waterproofing lead for my crews?"},{"answer":"Business texting is registered under US carrier rules (A2P 10DLC), consent and telemarketing quiet-hours laws are followed, and opt-out is honored immediately and automatically. The booking flow collects explicit consent, and known spam numbers are screened before they waste your team's time.","question":"Does the system handle texting compliance for homeowners in the US?"},{"answer":"It starts with a free ~15-minute scoping call to settle the plan. From there, we connect your lead sources — website forms, ads, phone lines, chat, and referral sources — set your response rules, and integrate with your existing CRM and calendar. A one-time flat setup fee is quoted upfront and waived on annual plans.","question":"How long does setup take for my waterproofing business?"},{"answer":"Equivalent human coverage would take at least two full-time hires — CallMyLeads costs a fraction of one salary. There are no seats to pay for; pricing is per-minute, and only minutes actually handling leads are billed, with spam and robocalls screened and never billed. Plus you get qualification, scoring, booking, and nurture follow-up built in, with no contract and the ability to cancel anytime.","question":"How is this different from hiring a part-time answering service or receptionist?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Connect your lead sources","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Website forms, ads, phone lines, chat, and referral sources join one response system in a quick setup — a free ~15-minute scoping call settles the plan."},{"step":"2","title":"Set your qualification rules","gradient":"from-yellow-500 to-orange-500","description":"You choose the first message, qualification questions, what counts as a qualified waterproofing lead, and when to route a caller to your team."},{"step":"3","title":"Leads get answered, scored, and booked","gradient":"from-green-500 to-emerald-500","description":"Every lead gets a reply in seconds, automatic scoring, and a booked inspection with confirmations and reminders — while not-ready leads get nurtured until they book."}],"ctaText":"Stop paying for leads you never get to talk to.

The first reply usually wins. With a reply in seconds — even at 9pm on a Sunday during a storm — you're talking to the homeowner about their wet basement, sump pump backup, or foundation crack while competitors' phones ring out.

When you're knee-deep in a crawlspace encapsulation or running a French drain install estimate, the call goes to voicemail and the homeowner calls the next exterior waterproofing contractor.

Water damage accounts for 23% of all homeowners insurance claims, with an average claim cost of $11,098, so speed matters. When a homeowner with efflorescence on the foundation wall fills out your form at 8pm and nobody replies until morning, that lead is already talking to a competitor about crack injection."}],"quickWins":["Route after-hours storm calls automatically: homeowners calling about an overflowing sump pump at midnight get answered 24/7/365, with approved FAQs handled instantly and true emergencies routed to your on-call crew.","Screen spam and robocalls before they waste your team's time — only minutes actually handling real homeowner leads are billed."],"subheadline":"CallMyLeads responds to every basement waterproofing lead in seconds, qualifies it automatically, and books the inspection — so you stop paying for leads you never get to talk to.","problemTitle":"The Hidden Costs Killing Basement Waterproofing Growth","testimonials":[{"quote":"During spring storms we used to miss half our calls while on job sites.
