Home services
Foreman answers while you are under a sink, books the slot from your real schedule, and chases every quote you have not heard back on.
Rivera Plumbing, example
5 conversations Foreman handles for a home services business like yours, in your voice, written into the system you run. Pick one.
Water heater is leaking from the bottom and the garage floor is wet. Can someone come today?
Yes. Marcus can be there between 1:00 and 3:00 PM today. What is the address?
4120 Elm Ct, Plano. Garage is on the side of the house.
Got it. Is the water shut off at the heater, or do you need help finding the valve?
Found it, it is off now.
Good. Marcus is booked 1:00 to 3:00 PM today at 4120 Elm Ct. $89 diagnostic, waived if you go ahead with the repair. He will text when he is 20 minutes out.
Sent as iMessage. Blue bubbles from a real number, text message for Android.
Hi Greg, Tony at Rivera Plumbing. The $2,850 water heater quote from last Tuesday is still open. Any questions before you decide?
Honestly waiting on 1 more quote. Yours is a bit higher.
Fair. Ours includes the expansion tank and permit, which is usually the gap. If the other quote lists both, send it over and Tony will look at it.
Other one did not mention a permit. Let us just do yours. When can you come?
Thursday 10/15 at 8:00 AM with Marcus, about 4 hours. $500 deposit link coming now, the rest on completion.
No heat and it is 38 degrees out. Furnace is clicking but not lighting. Is anyone available tonight?
Yes. After-hours call is $189 plus parts. Dee can be there by 11:45 PM. Is the thermostat set to heat and above room temperature?
Yes, 70, room is 61.
Then it is worth the visit. Dee is on the way to 1180 Birch Ln, arriving about 11:45 PM. Keep the furnace off until she arrives. She will text from the driveway.
Hi Paul, Rivera Plumbing. It has been 14 months since your last water heater flush. We have Tuesday 10/13 or Friday 10/16 mornings open, $129. Want one?
Friday works. Can you check the garbage disposal while you are there? It hums but does not spin.
Added to the ticket. Friday 10/16, 8:00 to 10:00 AM, flush plus disposal check, with Marcus. He will text when he is 20 minutes out.
Hi Dana, Marcus finished the water heater this afternoon. If everything is working, would you leave him a review? It takes a minute: the link is in the next text.
Done. He was great, cleaned up everything.
Thank you, he will see it. Your invoice is paid in full and the 2-year warranty is on file. Text here any time.
Where home services businesses lose money, and what Foreman does
The numbers are worked examples to show the shape of the leak, not results. Your own numbers come from your calendar and your phone log on the setup call.
Missed calls on the job
Example: A 3-truck shop that misses 5 calls a day, where 2 would have booked at a $400 average ticket, is looking at roughly $800 a day that went to the next company on the search page.
Foreman: Foreman answers by text within 60 seconds, offers 2 real slots from the schedule, books the job, and writes the address and the problem into Jobber or Housecall Pro.
Open quotes
Example: An estimator who sends 15 quotes a week and follows up on none of them usually has a month of outstanding work on the board. Even 1 more in 10 saying yes is real money.
Foreman: Foreman follows up on day 2, day 5 and day 10 in your voice, answers scope and price questions you allow, and tells you which ones went quiet.
Due-for-service
Example: 500 past customers, a third of them due for a flush, a tune-up or a renewal, and nobody has texted them since the invoice.
Foreman: Foreman runs due-for-service and membership renewal texts off your own list, handles the replies and books the visit. You approve the offer once.
No-shows and gaps
Example: A cancelled 1:00 PM leaves a tech sitting in the van. That is a lost job and the drive time on top.
Foreman: Foreman confirms the day before, offers the slot to the waitlist the moment it opens, and moves the next job earlier when the customer says yes.

Questions home services business owners ask
It books. Foreman reads your real availability, offers 2 slots, and writes the job with the address, the problem and the notes into the system you run. No message pad.
Your after-hours rule decides. Foreman can dispatch the on-call tech with your after-hours price stated up front, or hold the lead with a firm first-thing slot. Either way the homeowner hears back in under a minute and does not call the next company.
Only the ones you give it. Flat-rate services, diagnostic fees and ranges you approve are quoted. Anything else gets a firm booking for an estimate instead of a guess.
No. It books the site visit and gathers what the estimator needs: photos, the model number, the age of the unit, how the water is shut off.
3 touches over 10 days in your voice, and it stops the moment someone says no or books. You see every reply, and you can pause any thread.
Yes. Calls to your line that go unanswered get a text back from the same number. Nothing changes for the techs or the customers.
