After a storm, the fastest callback gets the roof.
A leaking or storm-damaged roof is a race — against the weather, the insurer's clock, and every other roofer's phone. Miss the call and the job's gone. Aimee answers when you can't.

Live phone answering starts only after activation, private-number provisioning, and verified forwarding. Eligible calls must reach Mango while the telephony service is available. Summaries and alerts are confirmed as delivered only when the configured provider accepts them.
A roofer answering service answers your calls when you can't — up on a roof, mid-quote, or through a post-storm surge — so a repair enquiry becomes a booked job instead of a missed call. Mango Receptionist does it with an AI receptionist named Aimee.
After activation and verified forwarding, she can answer eligible calls routed from your existing number in your business name while service is available, captures the roof type, the problem (a leak, storm damage, missing tiles or sheets), whether water is getting in now, whether it's an insurance job, and the address, then sends you the job. After a storm the phones ring for two days straight, then go quiet — and the insurance-backed repairs go to whoever called back first. Aimee's standard Solo price is US$200 every 30 days for up to 50 bookings.
Businesses that respond to a new enquiry within 5 minutes are 21 times more likely to qualify the lead than those who wait 30 minutes. The first pickup usually wins the job.

The morning after a hailstorm. Water is coming through ceilings across the service area.
For two days the phones ring off the hook, then it goes quiet. Homeowners with water in the ceiling call roofer after roofer until one answers and can commit to an inspection. You're already up on a roof, phone out of reach, working the first jobs that got through.
Every call you miss in that window is an insurance-backed repair — often thousands — booking with whoever called back first. The post-storm surge is the roofing year's biggest revenue, and it's decided entirely by who's reachable in those 48 hours.
Aimee answers the whole surge — and sends you jobs to quote.
She captures the damage and insurance details so you quote fast, and can send the caller a link to upload photos.
Can answer around the clock when active
Eligible post-storm calls you forward — on a roof, mid-quote, after hours — can be answered in your business name.
Captures the roof & damage
Roof type, the problem, whether water is getting in now, and the address.
Flags active leaks & insurance
Water coming in, or an insurance claim on the clock — Aimee marks it urgent and can request photos to speed the quote.
Sends you jobs to quote
The full summary lands after the call is completed and the delivery provider accepts it, so you call back and quote before the next roofer does.
Built to integrate, not lock you in: Mango Receptionist exposes an open MCP (Model Context Protocol) endpoint — the same interface AI assistants use — so answer engines and tools can query how it works directly.
What a post-storm week can cost
Illustrative maths for a storm week — the surge is where the year's money is. Aimee's standard Solo price is US$200 every 30 days for up to 50 bookings.
Questions roofers actually ask.
How much does a roofer answering service cost?
Mango Receptionist's standard Solo price after beta is US$200 every 30 days for up to 50 bookings — no per-call or per-message charges. Setting Aimee up in your browser is free with no card. A one-off US$5 activation turns on phone answering and starts a 14-day phone trial. During beta, that activation is the only charge; standard Solo billing begins after beta.
Does the AI receptionist sound robotic to customers?
Aimee answers in a natural voice and handles the call like a good office manager. Call the demo line on +61 2 5300 8040 and hear her before you put her on your phones.
Can it capture storm damage, insurance and photos?
Yes. Aimee captures the damage, whether it's an insurance job, and can send the caller a link to upload photos of the roof before you quote — so you arrive knowing what you're walking into.
Do I have to change my phone number?
No. You keep your existing number and switch on call forwarding — full, or only when you're busy or don't answer.
Can it handle the post-storm call surge?
Yes. Once active, Aimee can handle concurrent eligible calls that reach Mango while the telephony service is available — so the surge that used to overwhelm your voicemail becomes a list of captured, quotable jobs.
