A snow removal answering service for the calls that come mid-storm.
You're backing a plow down a driveway with the blade dropped and the phone is going constantly. Risacare answers every one you miss with a short greeting and your booking link, texted from your own number.
Why snow operators pick Risacare
The storm is the whole business
Every call arrives in the same twelve hours. Each missed one still gets a text in about thirty seconds.
You're plowing, not dialling
Both hands and eyes are on the blade and the mirrors. Nothing has to stop.
New customers get captured
Mid-storm one-off callers are saved as leads with their number, so you can convert them to seasonal contracts later.
$79/mo, month-to-month
Run it through the winter and cancel in spring. No contract, no annual lock-in.
You're Behind the Wheel of a Plow, Not a Phone
You can't safely answer calls while plowing, and a storm means back-to-back routes for hours. Every unanswered call during that stretch is a customer deciding in real time whether to wait for you or call someone else.
Liability Makes Customers Impatient
Business owners worried about a slip-and-fall on an icy lot don't want to wait for a callback - they want confirmation someone is coming. Silence after a missed call pushes them straight to a competitor who picks up.
Snow Removal FAQ
Can it tell contract customers from one-off callers?
No. Every missed call gets the same text. Sorting your route customers from walk-ups is your callback.
Can it give an ETA?
No — it doesn't know where your plow is. It sends a greeting and a booking link, and promising a time you can't keep mid-storm is worse than saying nothing.
Can I use it only in winter?
Yes — month-to-month, cancel any time.
During a storm we get flooded with calls - can this keep up?
Yes, it responds to every missed call automatically, whether that's a handful in a normal week or a flood of them during a storm. There's no cap on volume.
Our season is short - do we need to pay for this year-round?
There's no contract, so you can run it through your snow season and cancel or pause when it's over.
Does it ask the caller questions or qualify the job?
No. Risacare doesn't interview anyone — the caller hears a short greeting and gets a text with your booking link. Qualifying still happens when you call back. Nothing pretends to be a receptionist.
Does it sync with my dispatch or field software?
No. Replies land in your Risacare leads with the caller's number and you get an alert; you enter the job into whatever you already use. We'd rather say that plainly than sell an integration that doesn't exist.
What does it cost?
Call Catcher is $79/mo flat — no per-minute charges, no per-lead fees, no commission on the work it saves. 7-day free trial, card required, cancel any time.
