Overview

What Are Home Improvement Calls?

Home improvement calls are live inbound phone calls from homeowners who want a quote for work on their property. They are not aged leads or bought data — the homeowner picks up the phone because they have a job that needs doing.

Live inbound

The homeowner calls in — not the other way around. The conversation starts at peak buying intent.

Quote-ready prospects

Callers have a specific job in mind and want a price or a site visit. No cold conversations.

Homeowner-screened

IVR or agent screening confirms the caller owns the property and needs the service before the call reaches you.

Service-matched

Each call routes only to buyers who offer the exact service requested — a roofing call never lands with a patio firm.

Geo-qualified

Calls are matched to your service area by county, region or postcode prefix.

Duration-filtered billing

You only pay for calls that pass the agreed minimum duration. Short calls and hang-ups do not bill.

Business Benefits

Why Phone Calls Outperform Online Leads

A homeowner who picks up the phone is further along than one who fills in a form. Here is why call-based buying works for home improvement.

Higher intent

A caller is closer to a decision than a web form submission that may have gone to several firms.

No callback race

Your team answers while the homeowner is still on the line — no chasing a lead that has already spoken to a competitor.

Pay for performance

You pay for qualified calls, not impressions or clicks, so spend maps directly to conversations.

Shorter sales cycle

Qualify, quote and book the survey in one conversation.

Controllable volume

Caps and schedules let you match call flow to crew capacity.

Clear dispute trail

Recordings and call references make any billing question quick to resolve.

FAQ

Home Improvement Pay Per Call — Frequently Asked Questions

What are home improvement calls?

Home improvement calls are live inbound phone calls from homeowners looking to hire a contractor or installer. Each caller has a specific job, such as replacing windows, repairing a roof or installing solar panels, and wants a quote. They are high-intent prospects, not aged database contacts.

How much do home improvement calls cost?

Pricing depends on the service category, region, exclusivity and call type (raw inbound or live transfer). Your cost per call is agreed before the campaign starts, and only calls that meet the qualification criteria are billed.

How do exclusive calls work?

An exclusive call is sold to one buyer only. When a homeowner call matches your filters it routes directly to your business, and no other buyer receives the same caller.

Are calls screened before they reach my team?

Yes. Calls go through IVR or agent screening before connecting. The caller confirms they own the property, the service matches your category and the caller is inside your service area. Calls that fail these checks are not billed.

Which areas do you cover?

Home improvement campaigns run across the UK. Volume is strongest in densely populated areas and varies by category. Tell us your postcode areas and we will confirm current supply.

Can I choose which counties or postcodes I receive calls from?

Yes. You define your service area by county, region or postcode prefix, and you only receive and pay for calls from inside that area.

Is there a minimum order or contract?

There is no long-term contract. Most buyers start with a small test batch and scale on results. Minimum deposit and volume depend on category and region, and are agreed before the campaign starts.

Do you offer live transfer calls?

Yes. A qualification agent speaks with the homeowner first, confirms the job and location, then warm-transfers the call to your nominated number.

What is the difference between CPL and CPA pricing?

CPL (cost per lead) means you pay a fixed amount for each qualified call regardless of outcome. CPA (cost per acquisition) means you pay only when a call becomes a confirmed job. CPL is the standard pay-per-call model; CPA may be available for established buyers with trackable conversion data.

How are publishers paid?

Publishers earn a fixed payout for each qualified call that meets the duration and quality requirements for its category. Payouts run on a regular schedule, and rates vary by category and call type.

What traffic sources can publishers use?

Search ads, social ads, SEO content sites, comparison portals and organic social, confirmed per campaign. Traffic must be relevant to home improvement and targeted to the buyer's areas. Misleading ads or fraudulent call patterns lead to account suspension.

Are calls recorded?

Yes. Calls are recorded for quality assurance and dispute resolution, and callers are informed at the start of the call. Buyers can request recordings within the billing period.

What happens if I receive a call that does not meet the criteria?

Raise a dispute with your account manager, quoting the call reference, within the agreed review window. The call recording and qualification data are reviewed, and verified invalid calls are credited back.
