AI Receptionist for Roofers in Perth
Perth roofers are losing an average of 7 calls every day. At $1,440 per job, that's $10,080 in lost revenue daily—or $2,620,800 per year walking straight to competitors.
The problem isn't that you're not good at your job. It's that you physically can't answer when you're:
- Under a house in Fremantle
- Up a ladder with power tools running
- Hands covered in materials
- Already talking to another customer
CallTradie's AI receptionist solves this. It answers every call in under 2 rings, 24/7/365—so you never lose another $1,440 job to a competitor who just happened to pick up faster.
Why Perth Roofers Miss High-Value Calls
You're not missing calls because you're lazy. You're missing them because the job requires both hands, full attention, and you're often in environments where answering isn't possible.
Real scenarios from Perth roofers:
- Installing equipment in Fremantle—hands full, can't grab phone
- Diagnosing issues in noisy environments—can't hear the ring
- Driving between Fremantle and Joondalup—safety first
- Already on the phone with a supplier—second call goes to voicemail
Here's the brutal truth: Your competitor who answers faster gets the job. Even if you're better, cheaper, and more experienced—if they pick up and you don't, they win.
In Perth's competitive roofer market with over 22,000 licensed professionals, speed to answer is everything.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the AI handle roofer calls in Perth?
The AI is trained on over 50,000 real roofer calls from across Australia. It understands terminology like "roof leak", "storm damage", and common Perth requests. It speaks with a natural Australian accent—not robotic, not offshore.
What if a customer needs to speak to ME specifically?
For urgent calls (detected by language like "emergency," "now," "urgent"), the AI transfers immediately to your mobile—even bypassing Do Not Disturb. For quotes and bookings, it collects details and books into your calendar. You stay in control of which calls interrupt you.
Can it really book jobs into ServiceM8/Simpro?
Yes. CallTradie integrates directly via API. When a customer calls, the AI checks your availability in real-time, creates a job with customer details, books the appointment, and sends SMS confirmation—all automatically. You just show up to the job.
How much does it actually cost for a Perth roofer?
$0.50–$1.00 per minute. Average Perth roofer uses 200–400 minutes/month = $100–$400. Just ONE saved $1,440 job pays for months. No setup fees, no contracts, cancel anytime.
Does it work after hours and weekends?
Yes—24/7/365 including public holidays. After-hours calls can be booked for your next available slot, or if it's an emergency, transferred to your mobile. Most Perth roofers get 30–40% of their calls outside business hours.
Can I keep my existing Perth phone number?
Absolutely. Just forward your current number to your CallTradie line when you want AI coverage (on the tools, after hours, weekends). Toggle forwarding on/off from your phone anytime. Or get a new number—your choice.
What about spam calls and telemarketers?
The AI filters these out automatically. Telemarketer patterns are detected and politely dismissed without wasting your time. You only get notified about real customer calls and jobs.
How is this better than hiring a receptionist?
A full-time receptionist costs $55k/year + super + sick leave + holidays. They work 38 hours/week. CallTradie costs $100–$400/month, works 168 hours/week, never takes holidays, and integrates directly with your job management software. Plus you only pay for calls handled—not idle time.
