Since October 2026, Google Local Services Ads bills you for calls that ring unanswered for more than 20 seconds. The lead you did not pick up is still a lead you paid for.

For owner-operated HVAC and home-services contractors in the US
You were in an attic, on a roof, or under a sink. The call went to voicemail and the homeowner dialed the next company on the list. Rangback texts that caller back within 10 seconds, alerts you, and logs the lead, so the job stays yours.
$1,500 fixed build. Live in 5 days. You own the system.
Once in the job you did not get, and once on your ad bill. Two facts, both from the sources named:

HVAC companies answer about a third of their inbound calls. The other two thirds hit voicemail, and most of those callers do not leave a message. They call someone else.

You cannot answer every call while you are doing the work. You can make sure every caller hears from you before they hang up on the next company.
One fixed-price build that turns every missed call into a logged, followed-up lead. No subscription software you rent, no dashboard you have to learn. Everything runs on accounts in your name.
Your business line rings. You are on a job. After the ring-out, Rangback sees the missed call and, within 10 seconds, texts the caller from your number.
You receive an alert with the number and their reply. The lead lands in your sheet with a timestamp and a status. Call back when your hands are free.
Mark a quote as sent and the day 2, 5 and 10 follow-ups go out on their own. The customer replies, the sequence stops, you get the message.
Either forward missed calls from your current line, or we set up a Twilio number in your name that forwards to you.
Jobber, Housecall Pro, or none at all. If you have one, leads and quotes sync to it. If you do not, the sheet is the system.
One call to confirm your wording, your hours, and who gets alerted. That is the whole onboarding.
No. It covers the calls your receptionist, or you, could not pick up. If someone answers, nothing fires. If nobody does, the caller still hears from you within seconds instead of never.
Good. We connect to it. New leads from missed calls get created there, and quote follow-ups key off the quotes you already send from it. The sheet stays as your independent log.
With the $200/month plan, SMS is included. Without it, you pay the carrier directly through your own Twilio account, which for a typical owner-operator is a few dollars a month. There is no markup from us either way.
The system keeps running. You own the number, the sheet, and the automation. You lose monitoring and our fixes when a carrier or app changes something, and you pick up the SMS bill yourself. Cancel by email, no notice period.
