Why it matters
These figures describe other companies’ datasets and homeowner cost guides. They are not a promise of calls recovered or revenue earned.
Unanswered home-services calls
14%–48%
Home-services missed-call rates in two vendor datasets run from 14% (CallRail) to 48% (Invoca, 2026). They measure different customer bases, so this is a range, not a single study.
CallRail’s January 2025 benchmark release says home services had a 14% missed-call rate, in a set of 1.1 million de-identified conversations across seven industries.
Invoca’s July 2026 home-services report says 52% of callers speak with a person. Invoca’s August 26, 2026 article, citing that report, says 48% of calls to home-services businesses go unanswered.

AC repair, national average
$360
HomeGuide lists a $360 national average for AC repair, from research and project costs reported by HomeGuide members. The typical range on that page is $150 to $650.
HomeGuide’s separate HVAC repair guide lists a $293 national average. The $360 figure is the AC repair average.
AC replacement, national average
$5,978
Angi says the 2026 national average for AC replacement is $5,978, based on 24,979 verified projects from Angi Pros. Most homeowners on that page pay $3,887 to $8,073 before extra ductwork.
Estimate based on the shop's inputs. It multiplies your calls per week by the percent you miss, your close rate, and your average ticket. It is not a forecast and it is not a count of jobs LeadRescue has booked.
Published home-services rates on this site run from 14% (CallRail, January 2025 release via BusinessWire) to 48% (Invoca, August 26, 2026). Those studies are not the same measurement. The missed-call field has no default. Enter your own percent.
The first text is informational: your business name, the missed call, and Reply STOP to opt out. Follow-ups wait for a YES, stay under three, and stay inside quiet hours.
Each shop registers its own A2P 10DLC brand and campaign. Gas, smoke, and CO alarms stop the bot, tell the caller to leave and call 911, and text the owner.
