Never Miss Another Roofing Lead
When a homeowner has a roof leak, storm damage, missing shingles, or an urgent repair need, they call the roofing company that responds first. Zevaux helps roofing businesses answer more calls, capture storm damage leads, reply by SMS, respond to emails, and turn more inquiries into booked inspections, day, night, weekends, and after storms.

Every Missed Roofing Call Could Be a Missed High-Value Job
Roofing leads are not low-ticket service calls. One roof replacement, insurance claim, or storm damage inspection can be worth thousands. Homeowners rarely wait. If your team doesn't answer, they call the next roofer on Google.
Lost roof replacement estimates
Worth $8,000–$25,000+ each, captured by a competitor who answered the phone instead of letting it ring.
Storm damage requests gone elsewhere
Inspection requests after hail and wind events that moved on to the next contractor on the homeowner's list.
Insurance claim leads slipping away
High-value, time-sensitive claim leads, usually contacted to multiple roofers simultaneously and won by whoever picks up first.
Website inquiries sitting for days
After-hours calls without voicemails and email form submissions sitting unread in an inbox until it's too late.
When a Storm Hits, Leads Don't Wait Until Monday
After a hail event, wind storm, or major rain, homeowners start calling that same evening. They call on weekends. They call before 8am. Most roofing offices are not staffed for the surge, and leads go to whoever answers.

- Your team wakes up to a structured lead list, not a pile of missed calls and incomplete voicemails

Worried About AI Handling Your Roofing Leads?
Your phone is one of the most valuable parts of your roofing business. Here is how Zevaux addresses the most common questions.
Will it sound robotic to homeowners?
Zevaux is built for natural call intake, not scripted phone trees. You can test the demo before it handles any live leads. Most homeowners want their issue acknowledged and their information captured quickly, which Zevaux does effectively.
What if the homeowner has an emergency roof leak?
Zevaux identifies urgent roofing requests, including active water intrusion, structural concerns, and emergency tarping, and routes them based on your workflow, including immediate SMS alerts and warm transfer options for your on-call team.
Can it handle storm damage and insurance calls?
Yes. Zevaux collects damage type, property address, urgency, insurance involvement, adjuster details, and inspection request information, so your estimator has full context before the follow-up call.
Can it reply to homeowner text messages?
Yes. Zevaux supports SMS reply workflows, inspection booking links, appointment confirmations, and two-way text follow-up. Growth and Pro plans include SMS alerts, SMS during live calls, and automated follow-up options.
Can it respond to emails and website forms?
Yes. On Growth and Pro plans, Zevaux reads incoming emails and website form submissions, identifies the roofing request, and can draft or send an approved response, so no estimate inquiry goes unanswered.
Is it replacing my estimator or office manager?
No. Zevaux works as overflow, after-hours, and storm surge support. Your estimators and office team stay focused on high-value tasks while fewer leads slip through, especially when your team is already stretched.
How does my team get notified about new leads?
Zevaux sends an instant SMS to whoever you choose, owner, estimator, or office manager, the moment a call ends. For emails, a summary alert is sent. Full transcripts and email logs are available in your dashboard any time.
Is this affordable for a small roofing company?
The Starter plan is $49/month. One recovered inspection or replacement estimate often covers the cost many times over. The 7-day free trial lets you test with real calls before committing to any plan.
What Operators Are Telling Us
“After last summer's hail storm we got 40 calls in one weekend. Zevaux handled every single one, capturing the damage type, insurance status, and address. We booked 22 inspections that Monday. Before Zevaux, half of those would have been lost.”
