General Business AI Receptionist
Start from the General Business Receptionist, add your service area and storm-damage process to its instructions, connect your estimators' calendar for inspections, and add your emergency crew lead to the transfer list.
What it's planned to handle
Qualifies roofing leads and books inspections.
- Asks about the roof type, the problem and whether water is coming in right now.
- Separates repairs, full replacements and storm damage so each goes to the right person.
- Books inspections into your estimators' calendar.
- Notes whether the caller is working with an insurance claim so your team can follow up.
- Puts active leaks through to whoever handles emergency tarping.
What you'd fill in
- Services and roof types you work on
- Your service area
- How you handle storm damage and emergency tarping
- Estimator availability for inspections
- Who to transfer urgent leaks to
Questions it's meant for
Rules it would follow
- Never tell callers to go on the roof or attempt repairs themselves.
- Never say whether insurance will pay for the damage; that is between the homeowner and their insurer.
How assistants are released
Each RingMind assistant ships with its own instructions, safety rules and a test suite, and is offered only once every test passes. Join early access to hear when this one is ready.
Tools it would work with
Storms bring calls, all at once
Roofing companies see call volume jump after every storm, just when crews and estimators are already booked. Callers range from someone with water coming through the ceiling to a homeowner comparing quotes for a replacement next spring, and many mention an insurance claim.
How the planned Roofing Receptionist is meant to work
The Roofing Receptionist is planned and not yet available. It is being designed to ask about the roof type, the problem and whether water is coming in now, separate repairs, replacements and storm damage, book inspections into your estimators' calendar, note whether there is an insurance claim, and put active leaks through to whoever handles emergency tarping. It would never tell callers to go on the roof, and never say whether insurance will pay.

Start from the General Business Receptionist:
- Business details: list your services and roof types, and your service area.
- Additional instructions: describe your storm-damage process and emergency tarping, the questions to ask (roof type, problem, active leak, insurance claim), and two firm rules: never suggest going on the roof, and never comment on what insurance will cover.
- Knowledge Base: add approved FAQs about inspections, typical project steps and how you work with homeowners who have claims. See the Knowledge Base guide.
- Connected tools: connect your estimators' Google Calendar to book inspections, and HubSpot or Pipedrive to capture leads.

Each lead arrives with the details your estimator needs. See AI receptionist for roofing companies and AI lead capture, or join early access.
Roofing AI Receptionist: questions
Is it available now?
Not yet. The Roofing Receptionist is planned. Today you can set up the General Business Receptionist for storm calls and inspections, and join early access for the dedicated version.
Can it handle a surge of calls after a storm?
It answers calls to your number and saves each lead and message for your team to work through. Keep your storm-damage questions short in Additional instructions so each call stays quick.
Will it say whether insurance covers the damage?
It shouldn't, and you should state that in Additional instructions. It can note that the caller has a claim so your team can follow up.
Can it book inspections?
Yes, with your estimators' calendar connected through Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook or Calendly.
What happens with an active leak?
Describe it as an emergency in your instructions and add your crew lead to the transfer list. If the transfer doesn't connect, the message is saved as urgent.
