Half the house is dark. They want to know if it's dangerous.
Callfoyer answers every electrical call on the first ring, separates a burning smell from a tripped breaker, and takes the panel age and permit detail your estimator would otherwise have had to ring back for.

What electrical callers ask
Four are safety. Two are the estimate.
The safety questions get a procedure you wrote; the estimate questions get your numbers, never invented ones.
- “Is it safe to stay in the house?”
- Gives the shut-off steps you approved, then escalates. It never judges a hazard itself.
- “Can you install an EV charger?”
- Asks the panel amperage and the run distance — the two things that decide the job.
- “Do I need a permit for this?”
- Answers from your own notes for the jurisdictions you work in, or says it will check.
- “How old is too old for a panel?”
- Takes the age off the label and flags anything on your replace-on-sight list.
- “Why does this breaker keep tripping?”
- Logs the circuit and what's on it, so you arrive knowing where to start.
- “Can you match the quote I got?”
- Records the competing number and puts it on your desk. It doesn't negotiate.
