The Problem

Why Businesses Need a Construction Answering Service.

The calls a traditional service and a voicemail box quietly lose.

Bids do not wait

A general contractor or homeowner calling for a bid moves to the next builder if no one answers.

Everyone is on site

Owners and crews are on job sites, not sitting by the office phone.

Project details get lost

Scope, timeline, and budget captured on a sticky note go missing.

After-hours and subcontractor calls

Coordination calls arrive at all hours and need a response.

How much does a construction answering service cost?

Live answering services for contractors typically charge $1.70-$3.30 per minute, so 100 calls a month at about 3 minutes each costs roughly $510-$990. Voksha charges per call instead: Starter is $14/month for 15 calls, Premium is $99/month for 150 calls with estimate booking, then $1 per additional call.
