After-hours answering for home service businesses
Nights, weekends, holidays—Serlo answers every call, captures job details, and sends a clean request to your team so you never lose a lead to voicemail.
Callers don't leave voicemails
When your office closes, calls go to voicemail—and most callers hang up. They call the next company on their list, and you lose the job before morning.
Even if they do leave a message, you're playing phone tag the next day. By then, urgency has faded or they've already booked someone else.
Serlo answers after hours—just like your office would
No hold music, no robotic menus. Just a natural conversation that captures what your team needs.
Caller reaches Serlo

Details captured
Serlo asks for issue type, address, urgency, and best callback time—using your intake flow.
Request sent to your team

Common questions
Does Serlo book appointments automatically?
Serlo captures appointment details and can send your booking link by text. Your team confirms the final schedule—Serlo doesn't book directly into your calendar.
What if it's an emergency?
Serlo can route urgent calls to your on-call tech and escalate to backups if needed. See emergency call routing.
How does the caller know it's not a person?
Serlo sounds natural and conversational. Most callers are just glad to reach someone—day or night.
