Connect with high-intent consumers actively looking for home improvement solutions.
Overview
Home Improvement Inbound Calls are consumers who see an offer and dial in themselves, generated by Altarious Global performance campaigns and delivered to your business in real time. Reach homeowners planning exterior and interior improvement projects and connect them with contractors ready to provide in-home estimates.
Homeowners planning an improvement project often have questions about materials, timelines and cost before they book an estimate, and many prefer to ask them on the phone. Inbound Call programs place project-specific offers in front of homeowners researching siding, gutters, decks and other improvements and invite them to call the contractor directly. Callers arrive with a defined project in mind, allowing the contractor's appointment setters to answer questions and schedule an in-home consultation on the same call. Programs can be focused on the project types that carry the best margins for the contractor.
This product is suited to home services businesses with a team ready to answer during defined hours, a clear view of the consumer they want, and the capacity to convert a live conversation. The acquisition objective is simple: put your team in front of home improvement consumers at the moment they are deciding.
Owners of single-family homes, typically aged 35 to 70, who have equity or financing capacity and a specific improvement project in mind. The most valuable segments are homeowners planning exterior projects such as siding, gutters and decks, those preparing a home for sale, and long-tenured owners upgrading aging components of their property.
Typical intent signals include: searching for a specific project such as siding installation, gutter guards or deck builders near me; recently purchased a home and planning updates; preparing to list a home for sale and improving curb appeal; exterior components showing wear, rot, peeling or damage.
Calls are generated through call-only and click-to-call performance campaigns targeting searches such as "home improvement contractors near me" and "siding installation cost", alongside social and comparison placements. Every source is tracked, so call quality can be traced back to the campaign that produced it.
Qualification is configured to your appetite. Standard home improvement criteria include: owns a single-family home within the contractor's service area; project type and approximate scope identified; timeline for starting the project stated, typically within the next few months; homeowner and any co-decision maker available for an in-home estimate; budget expectation or openness to financing discussed; not currently under contract with another contractor for the same project.
Calls are routed to your sales line in real time by state or ZIP, schedule and agent availability, with concurrency limits and daily caps set to your capacity. Call tracking and recording are available for quality control.
Process
The path from campaign to delivered inbound calls.
Performance campaigns across search, social and comparison placements reach consumers actively looking for home improvement solutions.
The consumer sees a relevant home improvement offer with a prominent phone number and a clear reason to call.
The consumer dials directly from the ad or landing page. Nobody is cold-called; the consumer chooses to reach out.
Optional IVR prompts and duration thresholds screen out wrong numbers, non-prospects and out-of-area callers.
The call rings your team in real time, routed by geography, schedule and agent availability.

Yes. Campaigns and screening can be dedicated to one project category or configured across several, matching the products and services you sell.
Screening asks whether the homeowner and any co-owner can be present for the estimate, which is a common requirement for in-home sales models.
Volume can be increased in spring and summer when project demand peaks and moderated in slower months, with caps aligned to your sales team's capacity.
Most programs are scoped in a single call and live within five business days. The work in between is agreeing qualification criteria, confirming geography and testing delivery into your phone system or CRM.
Yes. Daily and hourly caps are set to your capacity and can be changed at any time. Programs can also be paused entirely without losing your campaign history.
Delivery runs only during the hours your team is available to answer, in your time zone, and follows your holiday schedule. Nothing is routed to a desk that is closed.
Every call is tracked to its source with duration and outcome recorded. Calls that fall below the agreed billable duration or fail qualification are reviewed, and there is a defined dispute window.
