The problem

A homeowner with Colorbond panels ripped off in a storm won't wait for you to finish an installation

Fencing enquiries come in waves. After a storm, your phone won't stop ringing but you're already booked solid on other repairs. During spring, everyone wants new Colorbond or timber paling at once. When you're on-site carrying sheets, digging post holes, or bolting rails, answering the phone is not an option. The homeowner getting quotes from three fencers on hipages will book whoever picks up first.

  • 88% of callers getting fencing quotes won't leave a voicemail and will call the next company on hipages
  • After a major storm, you could lose 10-15 repair jobs in a single week to competitors who answer
  • A full-time office person costs A$3,000+/month but your call volume is seasonal and unpredictable
  • Every quote request a competitor answers first is a job worth A$3,000+ that you will never see

How Fencing Companies Use Jodie

Storm damage fence repair call being handled by AI answering service

Storm Damage Emergency

The situation: A homeowner wakes up to find their Colorbond fence ripped off the rails after overnight gales. Their dog can get out through the gap and they need someone as soon as possible.

Jodie handles it: Jodie answers straight away, asks how many panels are damaged, what type of fence it is, whether there are pets or children at risk, and gets the address. You get a text with the details so you can schedule the repair between existing jobs.

Jodie handles it: Jodie takes the call, asks about the fence type, approximate length, whether they want a gate, and when they want the work done. You get the details by text when you stop for a break.

New Colorbond Fence Quote

The situation: A homeowner calls wanting a quote for a new Colorbond fence in Woodland Grey. They have measured the boundary at roughly 30 metres and want a sliding gate as well. They are getting three quotes from hipages.

Jodie handles it: Jodie asks about the fence style, colour preference, total length, whether old fencing needs removing, ground conditions, and side access. You get the details by text so you can arrange a site visit or provide a ballpark price quickly.

Pool Fencing Compliance Call
