The Construction Answering Service for Contractors Who Are On Site

General contractors don't take calls from a scaffold. Rinqly is the answering service for contractors that picks up every call, qualifies the project, screens out the tyre-kickers, and books the consultation into your calendar.

Sub & Supplier Routing

Recognises supplier and subcontractor calls and routes or logs them separately from client enquiries.

Service Area Verification

Checks the property location against your working radius before anything gets booked.

The Problem

Common challenges that cost you real money

These problems are draining your revenue every single day.

You're On Site, Not at a Desk

Between site visits, suppliers, and subs, the phone rings while your hands are full — and the caller moves on to the next contractor.

Unqualified Leads Waste Days

Price shoppers, out-of-scope requests, and out-of-area enquiries look identical to real projects until someone asks the right questions.

Sub and Supplier Calls Mix In

Client enquiries get buried among supplier callbacks, delivery scheduling, and subcontractor questions.

Project Details Get Lost

Scope, budget range, and timeline scribbled on a notepad in a truck rarely survive the drive home.

Industry-specific

Built for your industry

Purpose-built features that understand your business.

Construction Conversation Templates

Flows for renovations, extensions, new builds, remodels, and repair enquiries.

Budget & Timeline Capture

Structured qualification that records scope, budget range, and desired start date on every lead.

Lead Scoring Rules

You define what counts as a qualified project; everything else gets a message and a transcript instead of a call.

Site-Visit Scheduling

Real-time calendar booking with address and access notes captured during the call.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about Rinqly for your industry.

A traditional contractor answering service uses human operators who take a message and bill per minute. Rinqly's AI answers every call instantly, qualifies the project with your own questions, screens out out-of-scope work, and books the site visit — flat from $49/month with no per-minute charges.

Yes, and that's the main reason contractors use it. It captures project type, scope, rough budget range, timeline, and location, so you can tell a real job from a price-shopper before you spend an evening returning calls.

Yes — it checks real availability in Google Calendar and books the consultation during the call, with the address and access notes attached.

Yes. You can configure it to recognise supplier and subcontractor calls and handle them differently from client enquiries — routing, logging, or taking a message as you prefer.

Yes. The template covers general contracting, remodels, and specialty trades — and if you're specifically in HVAC, plumbing, or roofing, we have dedicated pages for those.

From $49/month flat, compared with $1–$3 per minute for a human answering service. One captured project enquiry usually pays for the year.
