General contractors don't chase subs who don't pick up. When a GC needs site prep priced, he calls three excavation companies and works with whoever responds first. You're in the cab with the radio up and both hands on the sticks. Quickwire answers your missed calls by text in seconds, captures the project details, and gets you into the conversation before the other two even hear their voicemails.
No contracts to sign today. See it work first.
You can't answer a phone from an excavator cab, and you shouldn't have to. But excavation lives on inbound calls: a builder needs a pad graded, a homeowner needs a french drain, a septic installer needs a partner on a dig. These are five-figure jobs decided by who responds, and callers rarely try twice. Miss a GC on Tuesday and he isn't angry, he has simply already scheduled someone else, and his next three projects tend to go with them too. One unanswered ring can cost a relationship, not just a job.
You're mid-job, after hours, or already on the line. The call rings out like it always has.
The caller instantly gets a text in your voice, asks what they need, and keeps the conversation alive.
Quickwire books the appointment and pings you with the details. You never stopped working.
Wednesday, mid-morning. You're benching a foundation cut when a custom-home builder calls about grading two lots in a new subdivision. It rings out. Thirty seconds later he gets: "You've reached Bedrock Excavation. In the cab right now. What does the project look like?" He texts the site address and a rough scope. By your lunch break there's a Friday walkthrough on the calendar and his whole message thread saved, and you never took your hands off the controls.
Yes. The conversation asks about the project up front, so a weekend stump-pull inquiry and a multi-lot grading package get sorted before you call anyone back. You set the rules for which job types ping you immediately and which just book a site visit.
GCs are the most text-friendly callers in construction; they're usually on a site themselves. What they won't put up with is silence. A fast, specific reply that captures scope and books a walkthrough reads as a well-run company, because it is one.
Excavation is a low-volume, high-ticket trade, which is exactly where missed calls hurt most. If Quickwire recovers one graded pad or drainage job a year, it has paid for itself several times over. Everything after that is margin.
The same threads that booked the work can move it. Weather delays get communicated by text to everyone affected, and you can jump into any conversation yourself. Customers who hear from you before they have to ask tend to stay booked instead of shopping around.
No. Quickwire works with your existing business number. Customers just see texts coming from you.
Drop your info and we'll get right back to you with the same instant text-back your excavation company's customers would get.
