EVERY TRADE, ONE SYSTEM
A burst pipe isn’t a storm claim. It knows the difference on 14 trades, and it still answers the phone for the rest.
Generic answering services read one script for everyone. SubCall triages like someone who’s worked the trade. The right questions, the right urgency, the right words.
Try it for $5 · 30 days · 50 minutes. Money back if it’s not right.
CALLER
"There’s water coming through my ceiling."

"Shut off the main valve now. It’s by the meter. Once it’s off I’ll get a plumber dispatched, same-day."

WHY TRADE-AWARE WINS
One script for everyone is why answering services lose your calls.
A plumber's burst-pipe call and an electrician's sparking-outlet call get different questions. Each trade gets its own, never a generic form.
A roof leak in a storm and a flickering light are both urgent, and need completely different responses. It knows which is which.
Customers say "water coming through the ceiling," not "plumbing failure." It understands how people actually talk.
