Focus on delivering sparkling results while we handle your calls.
How it works
Sign up, tell us about your window cleaning service, and let Upfirst handle your calls.
Share details about your services and how we should handle each caller. Whether you handle residential homes, commercial buildings, or both, we'll follow your instructions every time.
Your callers won't ever hear a voicemail again. While you're focused on the job at hand, we're picking up your calls and helping to answer questions, collect info, and book new cleanings.
After each call, you'll receive a summary via SMS/email with the caller's information, what they needed, and any appointments we scheduled. Check updates on your phone between jobs or review everything at the end of the day.
24/7 answering service for window cleaners
Running a window cleaning business means you're constantly on the move. You're hauling equipment, climbing ladders, working on scaffolding, and driving between jobs. When your phone rings, you can't always answer. No one leaves voicemails anymore, so they'll just call the next company on the list. Homeowners looking for a window cleaner often call multiple companies, and the first one to answer usually wins the job.
Our answering service makes sure that's you:
See how our inbound answering service helps businesses pick up every call, every day.
When someone calls for a window cleaning quote, they're often ready to book now. The longer they wait, the colder the lead gets. With Upfirst, every call gets answered within seconds, so you can turn inquiries into booked jobs before your competitors even get a chance to respond.
Bringing on a full-time receptionist doesn't make sense for most window cleaning companies. Our automated answering service gives you professional call handling at a price that’s actually affordable. It’s easier than ever for small businesses to eliminate voicemails.
Every phone call interrupts your workflow. Every missed call adds mental stress. When you're cleaning windows three stories up or detailing a storefront, you need to concentrate on the job. Let us handle the calls so you can deliver the spotless results your customers expect.
Every window cleaning company answers calls in their own way. Maybe you service residential only, or you specialize in commercial high-rise work. Perhaps you offer add-on services like gutter cleaning or pressure washing. Or, whether you need simple message-taking or appointment setting answering services, you can customize it in a way that makes sense for your business.

Can Upfirst schedule appointments for my window cleaning business?

It can also send callers a link to your online booking page if you prefer that approach. For window cleaning companies that want more control, the AI can simply collect the details and send them to you so you can follow up and confirm the appointment yourself.
What if I am not sure how many calls I receive each month?
That is not a problem. You can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time as you learn more about your call volume. Just reach out to our support team and we will help adjust your plan to match your needs. There is no penalty for changing, so you can start with a smaller plan and scale up as your window cleaning business grows.
Can I use Upfirst only for after-hours calls or overflow?
Yes, many window cleaning businesses use Upfirst specifically for after-hours coverage or to catch calls when they are up on a ladder and cannot answer. You can configure call forwarding to send calls to Upfirst only when you are unavailable, busy on a job, or outside business hours. This way you never miss a potential customer even when you are in the middle of a cleaning.
Does Upfirst integrate with CRMs like Jobber and other software?
Upfirst connects with popular field service platforms like Jobber, Housecall Pro, and Service Fusion via Zapier. This keeps your customer information organized without extra manual work.
Can I customize the voice of my AI receptionist?
Yes, you can choose from a variety of voices and accents to match the personality of your window cleaning company. Whether you want something friendly and casual or more professional, there are options to fit your brand. You can preview different voices during setup and change your selection anytime.
How will I know when someone calls my business?
You receive instant notifications after every call. Upfirst can send summaries through text message, email, or both. Each summary includes the caller's information, what they needed, and any details they provided about their window cleaning request. You can review everything and follow up whenever it is convenient.
