Our 24-year-old roof leaks around the chimney after heavy rain. We want it done before winter.
Thanks. Is it asphalt shingle, and roughly how many stories?
Asphalt, two stories, pretty steep.
Got it. Here’s what I understood. Anything to fix?

Read the brief, then call
Each inquiry arrives as a brief with its fit, so you know who to call first.
Questions for your trade
Start with the questions that matter for your kind of work. Rename them, remove them or add your own in a minute.
A written brief
Budget, timeline, location, contact details, photos and files, laid out so you know what the job is before you pick up the phone.
Fit and premium flags
Each lead is marked Strong fit, Possible or Not a fit against your ideal project, and premium jobs are flagged so you call them first.
Everywhere they find you
A chat box or button on your website, a Book button on Google Maps, links for Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp, and QR codes for signs and trucks. Every lead shows where it came from.
Straight answers.
- Is it hard to set up?
- No. Pick your trade, check the questions, and paste one line on your website, or share your own MesaBox page and skip the website. Most people are live in about ten minutes, with no developer. Stuck? Book a 15-minute setup call and we’ll do it with you. Book a setup call
- Why does it cost more than a form?
- A form is free because it only hands you a name and a number. MesaBox asks your follow-up questions, judges the fit, writes the brief, books the call and follows up, for $249 a month or $199 a month billed yearly. Your first 30 days are free, and everything is included. If it helps you win one job you would have lost, it has paid for the year ($2,388).
- Will it feel like a robot to my customers?
- It isn’t a chatbot. It asks your questions in plain words, shows the visitor what it understood so they can fix anything, and never quotes prices or gives advice. You decide the questions and the wording.
- I already have a contact form. Why switch?
- A form only hands you a name and a number. MesaBox replaces it: homeowners describe the project in their own words and answer your follow-up questions, so the first call starts with the budget, the timeline and the site instead of from zero.
Your numbers
What it could give you back.
About 15 of your 100 inquiries are your ideal project. They arrive first, with the brief and a booked call.
At $12,000 a job, that’s $180,000 of work in front of you. It isn’t counted in the estimate.

MesaBox for a year
$2,388
20% of one job at $12,000. Billed monthly it’s $249 a month.
If it helps you win one job you would have lost, it has paid for the year.
An estimate from the numbers above, not a promise. Our example assumptions: 15 minutes on a call that doesn’t fit, 6 minutes of back-and-forth to find a time for each lead who books, 5 minutes to enter each lead by hand, and 50% of leads booking a call. Change them to match your shop.
Questions
- Can I change the questions later?
- Yes. Every question can be renamed, removed or replaced, and your changes apply to new leads right away.
- Will it match my website?
- Yes. MesaBox uses your logo, colors and wording, and can open from your own button or a floating button, or sit right on a page.
- Is MesaBox an AI chatbot?
- MesaBox uses AI, but it isn’t a chatbot. A chatbot talks for you. MesaBox listens for you. Homeowners describe their project, MesaBox turns it into a brief and checks it against your rules, and they book a call with you. It never quotes prices, estimates, promises dates or gives building advice. Visitors check every answer before they send it.
