Live demoWhat is a roofing answering service?
A roofing answering service answers calls for roofing companies when the crew is on a roof or the office is closed. Sesla's AI answering service handles unlimited calls at once, captures storm damage and leak details, asks about insurance claims, and books inspections on your calendar 24/7.
The problem with missed calls
Leaks are urgent and happen at night
Water coming through the ceiling at midnight needs an answer, not a voicemail box.
High-value leads disappear fast
A homeowner who can’t reach you books the next roofer on the list.
An answering service for roofing companies that scales with every storm
Storm damage call answering service
Answers unlimited simultaneous calls, so no caller hears a busy signal.
Leak triage
Active leaks get priority escalation and a tarp request to your crew.
Inspection booking
Books roof inspections on your calendar, day or night.
Insurance claim intake
Captures carrier, claim status, and requests photos by text.
Example call (studio demo)

CallerYes, into the upstairs bedroom.
AI receptionistI'm marking this as an emergency and requesting a tarp crew. What's the address, and have you contacted your insurance company yet?
Caller310 Willow Street. Not yet.
AI receptionistThanks. The crew has your address and will call you shortly. I'll also text you a link to send photos of the damage.
