Can it quote a handyman job on the call?

Yes. Load your typical-job pricing (hourly, per task, minimums) into the knowledge base. The AI gives a ballpark on the call using your rules. Out-of-scope quotes escalate to a person via Live Help.

How does it handle a job that spans multiple trades?

The intake captures each trade in the scope (e.g. patch drywall, install new fixture, paint the wall). The ranking engine matches against techs with the most skills in common. Jobs your shop doesn't take are flagged politely with a reason.

Will it route quick jobs to quick slots?

Yes. Job scope drives slot size. A curtain rod routes to a short-slot tech whose day has a gap. A three-skill remodel routes to a full-day slot. Your calendar stops fragmenting.

What if the caller asks for a job we don't do?

The AI checks your knowledge base for scope boundaries (e.g. no roofing, no HVAC, no gas). Out-of-scope jobs are declined politely and logged as a missed-fit lead you can follow up on if you want.

How quickly can a handyman shop go live?

Five minutes. Forward your number, tag techs by skill, load your ballpark pricing, and the AI is answering. No CRM wiring, no contract, cancel anytime.

Where handyman services leak revenue

The phone is the job. And the job keeps slipping.

Every job is a different job.

Drywall, plumbing patch, light fixture, deck board, mount a TV, paint a room. Triaging scope on the phone, fast, is what separates a handyman shop from a mess of callbacks.

Quote calls stack up.

Every new caller wants a ballpark. Every ballpark is ten minutes on the phone. You either pay someone to field them, or you lose the lead while you're under a sink.

Right-sizing the tech is half the margin.

Sending the senior tech to hang curtain rods kills your day. Sending the apprentice to a three-skill remodel kills your quote. The intake decides.

Recevia answers every call, creates the job, and sends the right tech. You keep working.

How it works

From ring to dispatched in under a minute.

Four steps. No one at a desk. No one reading voicemails. No one texting “who can take this?”

Why Recevia

Built for how handyman services actually run.

Not a generic answering service. A ranking engine that knows your certifications, your routes, and the tier of every call.

Scope-aware intake for varied jobs.

The AI walks every caller through scope — what, how many, how big, what materials. Structured job lands in your app with enough detail to quote without a second call.

Skill-tagged dispatch.

Tag techs by trade (plumbing patch, drywall, electrical light work, carpentry). The ranking engine matches the job scope to the skill profile so the right tech gets the right call.

Ballpark quotes from your knowledge base.

Load your typical job prices — door hang, drywall patch per hole, TV mount, fixture swap. The AI quotes a ballpark on the call using your rules. No more ten-minute phone estimates.

Small jobs routed to small slots.

Multi-hour jobs stay with senior techs and full slots. Quick wins (curtain rod, outlet swap, door tighten) route to shorter slots so your calendar actually fills.
