The customer calls
No heat, burst pipe, dead AC, quote request. The call arrives when the owner is already working.
Forge answers missed and after-hours calls, captures the customer issue and urgency, then texts the owner a clean summary before the job goes cold.
Homeowner needs furnace service before morning.
Daniel R. Furnace not heating. High urgency. Call back within 10 min.
The revenue leak
The phone is still the front door for local service. If it goes unanswered, the job often moves to the next contractor in the search results.
How Forge works
The workflow is intentionally plain: answer the call, collect the facts, text the owner, and make the callback faster.
No heat, burst pipe, dead AC, quote request. The call arrives when the owner is already working.
The caller gets a real intake instead of voicemail. Forge keeps the call focused on the job.
Issue, urgency, address, name, and callback number are organized into a usable handoff.
A clean SMS reaches the owner fast enough to decide what needs attention first.
Example SMS summary
Owners do not need another login. They need a precise dispatch note that tells them who called, what happened, and how fast to respond.
Sent to owner via SMS
Call back within 10 minutes. Ask whether the furnace is cycling.
