The Cost of Missing Emergency Calls

45%

Missed Emergency Calls After Hours During Critical Fire or Water Events

During peak storm seasons or after a fire incident, 45% of emergency calls go unanswered due to staffing gaps or after-hours coverage limitations. For restoration companies, this means losing high-value leads—especially during Class 3 water damage events involving sewage backup cleanup or structural drying needs. A delayed response can allow mold abatement to become a necessity within 48 hours, increasing project scope and cost. Without immediate contact, customers often turn to competitors who can respond within 15 minutes, jeopardizing both revenue and reputation.

85%

Delayed Response Exacerbates Property Damage and Client Dissatisfaction

When a restoration team fails to respond within the 15-minute window expected by 85% of clients, water extraction delays can escalate Class 2 water damage into Class 4, requiring extensive fire soot removal and smoke damage restoration. A 2-hour delay in initiating structural drying can result in irreversible flooring warping, drywall failure, and the need for full content restoration. Clients report 60% lower satisfaction when response times exceed 30 minutes, directly impacting retention and referrals.

$1.2 trillion

Inconsistent Communication with Insurance Adjusters Leads to Claim Delays

Miscommunication between restoration teams and insurance adjusters—often due to poor call logging or inconsistent follow-up—results in delayed claim approvals. For example, failing to document a biohazard remediation request or omitting key details about odor mitigation during fire damage can lead to claim denials. The $1.2 trillion annual loss from miscommunication in U.S. businesses is especially impactful in restoration, where every day of delay increases project costs and client frustration.

Why Restoration Services (Fire/Water) Choose Answrr

Capture Emergency Calls 24/7

An AI answering service captures every emergency call 24/7—even at 2 a.m. after a fire or storm. It immediately routes callers to the appropriate technician for immediate response, such as a fire soot removal team or a water extraction crew for a Class 4 flood. With real-time scheduling, a 30-minute response window is reduced to under 5 minutes, ensuring structural drying begins within the critical 48-hour window. This prevents mold abatement escalation and reduces project costs by up to 25%.

85% of callers who reach a live agent or AI system complete the booking—compared to just 15% who leave voicemails (Invoca, 2023)

Book Appointments While You Sleep

Automatically schedule appointments for critical services like sewage backup cleanup, odor mitigation, or content restoration with real-time calendar sync. For example, after a fire, the AI can book a smoke damage restoration appointment within minutes, send a confirmation with technician details, and even remind clients about post-restoration mold testing. This eliminates phone tag and ensures compliance with insurance timelines, reducing administrative workload by 60%.

78% of customers won’t leave voicemails—meaning 78% of leads are lost if no immediate response is made (Harvard Business Review, 2022)

Build Trust with Personalized Service

The AI remembers past projects, including details like prior mold abatement timelines, insurance provider names, and client preferences (e.g., ‘avoid chemical odor mitigation’). When a client calls after a second flood, the AI recalls the previous Class 2 water damage event and recommends a faster structural drying plan. This personalized touch increases client trust and leads to a 40% higher repeat business rate.

92% of customers are more likely to hire a company that responds within 15 minutes and remembers their history (McKinsey, 2023)

Real Results from Real Businesses

We lost three major fire damage jobs last winter because our phones were off after 8 p.m. Now, our AI answers every call—whether it’s a 3 a.m. call about smoke damage restoration or a storm-related water extraction request. It books the technician, sends the client a confirmation with the expected arrival time, and even alerts our team about the need for fire soot removal. We’ve recovered 92% of those lost leads and reduced our average response time from 45 minutes to under 7 minutes.
