JobStorm AI is a 24/7 answering service for HVAC contractors in Dallas–Fort Worth. It answers every call, qualifies the caller, books the appointment on your calendar, and texts your office a summary. $1,299 per month flat, no per-minute charges.
DFW summers hit 104°F. When a system dies at midnight, the homeowner works down Google Maps — and whoever answers first wins the repair and a customer for years. Your team's off the clock. Your on-call tech is fried. One missed 2 AM call costs more than a month of JobStorm AI.
Spring and fall go quiet — and that's exactly when renewals slip through the cracks. One inquiry sent to voicemail in October is a recurring customer lost before winter. JobStorm AI books and renews year-round, not just when the phones won't stop.
You paid for that lead. So did three competitors — at the same instant. The only thing that decides it is who calls back first. Most shops take 3–4 hours. JobStorm AI fires a callback in under 2 minutes, while the homeowner is still staring at the problem.
ServiceTitan is powerful — and complex. The last thing you need is another system to learn, configure, and babysit. JobStorm AI is done-for-you: we build it, we maintain it, you never touch it.
You've probably tried one. Most HVAC contractors have. A traditional answering service takes a message. Someone in a call center who's never seen a condenser writes down a name and a number and emails your office. You call back four hours later. They already booked someone else. Here's what happens instead.
Caller says the unit won't cool below 80 and it's six years old. Your agent knows that's likely a failed capacitor or low charge, flags it urgent, books the morning slot.
Straight onto your calendar. Not "someone will call you back."
No-cool at 11 PM in July goes to your on-call tech. A maintenance question waits for morning.
The "let me ask my husband" caller gets one callback the next day. Web leads get called back within minutes — while they're still on your site.
Every call recorded, transcribed, summarized. Nothing slips.
AC failures don't respect business hours. They happen at 9 PM in August and on the Fourth of July — and those callers aren't price shopping. They want it fixed tonight.
Flags priority, captures address and who's in the home, and texts your on-call tech immediately.
Tells the caller to get out and call 911 or the gas company first — then flags a priority furnace call so your tech takes the repair the moment it's safe.
Collects system details and books the appointment window straight into your calendar.
Captures the customer and offers the seasonal agreement on every qualifying call.
…and this is what lands on your phone before they hang up.
One unanswered call isn't just a lost repair — it's a lost maintenance contract, future replacements, and referrals.
At scale, margin compression makes every revenue leak expensive. Missed shoulder season calls compound into significant annual loss.
You can't hire your way out of after-hours coverage. JobStorm AI handles the overflow so your techs handle the work.
Summer is when everyone calls. But spring maintenance inquiries and fall pre-season checkups are where relationships are built. Those are the customers who call you first when the system fails at 2 AM in July.
JobStorm AI stays active 24/7 through every season — slow or peak — so a Tuesday night call in April doesn't become someone else's customer by Wednesday morning.
See Pricing for HVAC →An $850 capacitor repair is one job. The maintenance agreement that comes with it is a 5-to-10 year customer. JobStorm AI is built to ask for the agreement on every qualifying call — not as an afterthought, as the close.
The recurring revenue every emergency call should produce — captured while the tech is still on the way.
The $850 capacitor that walked to your competitor wasn't an $850 loss. It was a 10-year relationship that started somewhere else.
"Since we've got a tech coming out anyway — most folks add our seasonal maintenance plan to keep this from happening again. Two checkups a year, priority emergency response, and a discount on parts. Want me to mention it to the tech when he arrives?"
→ Soft offer. Tech closes on-site.A receptionist forgets to ask. A call center doesn't know to ask.
JobStorm AI never forgets.
When DFW hits triple digits, every AC in Frisco fails on the same Friday night. Storm Surge Mode automatically expands your call capacity and activates summer-emergency protocols — including no-cool triage, capacitor failure flagging, and priority routing for elderly homeowners and homes with infants.
No other AI voice service offers this. Most charge per-call overages that cost you more than the calls were worth. JobStorm AI Foreman includes Storm Surge Mode at no additional cost — because heat wave Friday is the moment you actually need us.
$1,299 per month. Flat. No per-minute billing, no overage, no surprise invoice after a heat wave. $3,500 one-time Implementation & Launch — your call flow, built by hand: your services, your pricing, your service area, the way you want your phone answered.
Founding rate — eight spots. We're taking eight founding clients so we have real DFW case studies to show. You get $997/mo and a $997 Implementation & Launch, locked for life. We get proof it works.
A full-time receptionist runs about $17.90 an hour — roughly $37,200 a year at full-time hours, before payroll taxes and benefits (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, May 2024). JobStorm AI answers every call, 24/7, for $15,588 a year. The average Texas HVAC system replacement is $13,050 (NeighborPrices $7,900–$13,750; ~$13,050 average, ServiceTitan), and 75% of missed calls never get a callback (HBR). One captured 2 AM call covers ten months of service.
See Full Pricing →The big platforms sell a $99 receptionist that works “out of the box” — meaning it wasn’t built for HVAC, and nobody’s watching it. Ours is built around your calls, your trade, and your service area, then run by a real team in DFW. You set up nothing. Founding spots: no monthly cent until your agent captures its first 10 qualified leads. No leads, no bill. After the eight founding spots close, the standard guarantee is 5 qualified leads.
We’re Rick and Colleen Leyba — husband and wife, based in McKinney. Colleen was born and raised here; Rick has called North Texas home for twenty years.
We both started in oil and gas, then spent thirteen years building a manufacturing and three-location retail business from scratch, and sold it in 2026. We know what a missed call costs a growing operation, and what it takes to run one where nothing slips.
Every call flow is hand-built, tested on real DFW homeowners, and never answers a live call until you’ve heard it and signed off.
“I won’t put fake testimonials on this page. We’re new. The first contractors who sign on become the proof for everyone after them.”

JobStorm is $1,299/month flat plus a one-time $3,500 Implementation & Launch. Founding clients pay $997/month with a $997 Implementation & Launch, locked for life — eight spots. Traditional answering services bill per minute or per call, which means your bill spikes exactly when you’re busiest.
Some will, and they’ll likely be less frustrated, not more. Your agent is built deep into one trade. A homeowner calls saying the AC won’t cool below 80 on a six-year-old unit — your agent knows that’s likely a failed capacitor, flags it urgent, and books the morning slot. That beats voicemail or a call center that can’t pronounce their street. You approve exactly how it sounds before it goes live.
It took messages. This qualifies, books, routes, follows up, and logs — and it knows HVAC.
It takes every call at the same time. No hold music, no busy signal. One caller or sixty, all answered on the first ring.
Spam filtering is built into every setup. Real callers only.
We connect with most tools that have an API. Bring yours to the call and we’ll confirm before you sign anything.
It checks the address and tells them politely — so you’re not driving to an estimate you’d never take.
Tonight, somewhere in DFW, an AC will die and a homeowner will dial the first number on Google. Either it's yours, or it isn't. A founding spot locks $997/mo Foreman pricing forever. Eight slots. Then they're gone.
