Every electrician in Houston loses jobs to missed calls — on ladders, under sinks, driving between sites. FrontDesk is the fix: an AI receptionist trained on your services and prices that answers instantly, every time, day or night.

Electrical work demands both hands and full attention — you can't answer the phone from the top of a ladder or inside a live panel. But panel upgrades and EV charger installs are high-ticket jobs, and homeowners collecting bids rarely wait for a callback. The contractor who answers first usually wins the work.
Houston's combination of hurricane season, clay soil, and brutal humidity keeps home services phones ringing year-round. It's also one of America's most competitive trades markets — sprawling from Katy to The Woodlands, with hundreds of licensed operators fighting for the same searches.
It answers from your price book and your calendar — and when a call is truly urgent, like a burning smell coming from a breaker panel, it follows your emergency protocol and gets a human involved immediately.
Small service businesses miss roughly 8 calls a week. If just 35% of those would have booked at an average electrical ticket of $400, that's $4,480/month walking to competitors — about 45× what FrontDesk costs.
Yes. Sparks, burning smells, or exposed wiring trigger your emergency protocol — safety instructions first, then immediate escalation to you. A ceiling fan install just gets booked into your calendar.
It asks the questions you'd ask: panel age, amperage, what's tripping, photos via text if you want. You show up to the estimate already knowing the scope.
No. It reads your live calendar and only offers open slots, with buffer time between jobs that you control.
It sounds natural and never pretends to be human if asked. Most callers just notice they got an instant, helpful answer instead of voicemail — which is what they actually care about.
About 20 minutes. You answer a guided questionnaire about your services, prices, hours, and booking rules, forward your number, and you're live. No hardware, no new phone number needed.
