The problem

People find a broken door on the way out the door.

Most garage door emergencies show up at the worst time: early morning, when someone is leaving, or late, when the door won't close. Those callers need a repair today and call until somebody answers.

The door breaks with the car inside

A broken spring is a loud bang the night before, or a door that won't lift at 6:30 AM. The caller is stuck and late. They call every repair company nearby, and the first to answer gets the visit.

Callers describe it as a noise

It's making a sound. It won't close all the way. It's crooked. What you need to know is whether it's a spring, a cable, an off-track panel, the opener or the sensors. A voicemail rarely covers it, and the wrong parts on the truck means a second trip.

A repair and a new door are different calls

A spring swap is a short visit. A replacement door or a new opener needs measurements and a longer slot. Both start as a phone call, and mixing them up wastes a whole window.


How Speechless handles your garage door calls

1

Answers the stuck-car call first

Your agent picks up in under a second, any hour, and asks whether the door is stuck open or shut, and whether a vehicle is inside. Calls you mark as urgent are put through to your cell or flagged for an immediate callback.

2

Asks the questions that decide the parts

Single or double door, roughly how old, what happened (a bang, off the track, the opener humming but not lifting) and the address. You get it as a text, so the right springs or opener are on the truck.

3

Books the visit and confirms it

Repairs and replacement estimates get booked into open slots on Google Calendar, Calendly, Cal.com or Square. Callers can get a text confirmation, and you get the summary with the address and callback number.

Frequently asked questions

What happens when a customer's car is stuck in the garage?
Set that as an urgent situation in setup. The agent then asks where the caller is, confirms the address and their number, and puts the call through to you or flags it for an immediate callback. The details arrive in a text either way.
Can it tell the caller what is wrong with the door?
It does not diagnose, and it does not talk anyone through a repair. It asks what the door is doing so you arrive prepared. It can pass along any safety note you want it to share, such as not to try to lift a door with a broken spring.
Will it quote a price?
It gives the numbers you've entered, for example a service call fee or a typical range for a spring replacement. If you haven't set a price, it says so, takes the details and you follow up. It never invents one.
Can it handle replacement-door and opener inquiries?
Yes. It asks for the size of the door, the style the caller wants and whether they need installation, then books an estimate slot or logs the request for you to confirm.
What if I'm already on a job when the call comes in?
That is the point. It answers while you're on the ladder, handles several calls at once, and ends spam and sales calls politely. The job you're on gets your full attention, and the next one is already written down.
What does it cost?
Starter is $39 a month with 250 minutes, then $0.20 a minute. Pro is $129 with 1,000 minutes, then $0.17 a minute. Scale is $249 with 2,000 minutes, then $0.15 a minute. Every plan has every feature, with no contracts. Adding a card starts a 14-day free trial of Starter.
