Local Voice is an AI answering service for contractors and home service businesses. Our AI phone agent answers in your business name, knows the calls your trade gets and books jobs on your calendar. Most clients start with nights and weekends.

See all our call dataBuilt for your trade
The agent learns how your trade books work.
A burst pipe at 9 p.m. and a pool design question at 9 p.m. are different calls. We set the agent up around the calls your trade gets.
What counts as an emergency
A no-heat call in January and a quote request in May need different handling. You set the rules, and urgent calls go to your on-call number.
When your calls come in
Call timing shifts with the season. In June 2025, 14.1% of calls to residential HVAC shops came outside weekday business hours. By October, it was 9.8%.

How your jobs get booked
Service windows, travel areas and job types follow your calendar, not a generic script.
What your callers ask
We build the agent's answers from your website and a short interview with you. You approve what it says.

How much does an AI answering service for contractors cost?
Our after-hours plan is $397 a month for 500 minutes of agent time, plus a one-time $500 setup fee. Overflow and around-the-clock coverage are quoted on your call volume.
Do you work with trades that aren't listed?
Yes. If customers call you to book work, we can build an agent for it. We start with a short call about how you book jobs.
Can it tell an emergency from a routine call?
Yes. You decide what counts as urgent in your trade. Those calls go straight to your on-call number. Routine calls get booked or get a message for your team.
Is this an AI or a live answering service?
It's an AI phone agent. It tells callers it's AI at the start of every call, and callers who want a person can ask for one.
