UK painter and decorator painting interior room walls

Sound familiar?

Peak season is when you work hardest and lose the most leads.

It is the second week of May. You are on a scaffold painting an exterior in Sevenoaks. Brush in hand, tunes on, radio in your back pocket instead of your phone. It rings twice and you do not hear it. That was a homeowner asking for a quote on a full interior redecoration before their daughter's wedding in August. They wanted the hallway, lounge, and three bedrooms done. Budget was £1,800. They left no voicemail. By Thursday they had arranged quotes from three decorators who replied the same morning. You never even knew about the job.

The busiest months for painters and decorators are exactly when the most calls are lost. TextBack Pro makes sure every caller gets an instant reply, even when you have a roller in each hand and paint up to your elbows.

Average value of a full interior redecoration. Lost every time you are on a job and miss a quote enquiry.

Of quote requests go to the first decorator who replies. Being second, even by an hour, often means losing the job entirely.

Homeowner calls for a quote on exterior masonry painting, south-facing front and back. Good weather window, motivated buyer, wants it done before September. You missed the call while on a scaffold on a different job.

TextBack Pro replies in under 5 seconds: "Hi, this is Lee from LP Decorating. Sorry I missed you. What work are you looking to get done?" They describe the exterior job. You call at lunchtime. You arrange a survey. You win the job.

An estate agent calls looking for a decorator to freshen up a property before it goes on the market. Three rooms, quick turnaround, good rate. You missed the call while cutting in on a ceiling.

TextBack Pro replies asking about the property and the timeline. The agent responds with the address and a two-week window. You reply with your availability. You win the instruction and potentially the repeat business from that agent.

A landlord wants end-of-tenancy decorating on two flats, quick turnover required. High-value repeat client if the job goes well. You missed the call on a Friday afternoon while finishing a hallway.

TextBack Pro replies asking for the property details and preferred start date. The landlord provides both. You quote by text and confirm the dates. You secure a client with two properties who will call you again every time a tenant leaves.

Customer calls, you miss it

You are decorating, up a ladder, or driving. The phone rings and you cannot answer. Without TextBack Pro, that caller arranges quotes from decorators who did reply.

SMS goes out in under 5 seconds

TextBack Pro sends: "Hi, it is Lee from LP Decorating. Sorry I missed your call. What decorating work are you looking to get done?" They feel attended to and reply with the details.

TextBack Pro books the quote visit

TextBack Pro captures the rooms and scope, then books a quote visit in your calendar. You end the day painting knowing tomorrow's visits are already confirmed.

Instant reply while you decorate

Auto-SMS in under 5 seconds on every missed call. Works during the spring and summer rush when you are booked wall to wall and the phone never stops.

Job scope capture

TextBack Pro asks about rooms, interior or exterior, and timescales. You arrive at the quote visit knowing the full scope and how to price it.

Quote visit booking

TextBack Pro connects to your calendar and offers available slots for quote visits. Homeowners book in without any phone calls from either side.

Estate agent and landlord pipeline

Letting agents and landlords with multiple properties need regular decorating. TextBack Pro captures every agent enquiry so you build the repeat business they represent.

Follow-up sequences

Quote enquiries that go quiet get a follow-up the next day. Jobs that were thinking it over come back to you rather than booking someone else.

Dashboard and call history

Every missed call, SMS, and reply in one dashboard. See your quote pipeline and which jobs are ready to book before you even pick up the phone.

"Spring used to mean losing three or four quote requests every week because I was always on a job. TextBack Pro changed that. Every caller gets a reply while I am still working. My pipeline is full from March to October now instead of me scrambling for the next job at the end of each one."

Lee P., Painter and Decorator, Kent

Yes. TextBack Pro replies to every missed call, interior or exterior. You can customise the message to ask whether it is interior decorating, exterior masonry, or commercial work so you know what to quote before you call back.

Yes. Estate agents and letting agents calling about property refreshes before sale or new tenancies are exactly the repeat-work clients that can fill your diary for months. TextBack Pro captures every one of those calls automatically.

You can customise the message to say you are currently booked but taking enquiries for a specific future date. Many homeowners will hold for a decorator they trust. Better to capture the lead and manage the timeline than to lose it to a missed call.

No. The message comes from your number, in your words, with your name and business. Most customers simply think you were quick to reply by text. The speed is what they notice, and they appreciate it.

Under 5 minutes. You enter your number, write your auto-reply message, and you are live. Most decorators are set up in the time it takes to finish a cup of tea, and the first missed call reply goes out automatically.
