What the combined results reveal:
Opportunity Area: The combined May results show that 43 calls went unanswered. At the 38.0% verified rate, those missed calls represent roughly 16 additional jobs that may have been earned with full coverage. Among attributed contractors, David Soltwisch missed 2 (4.7%) and Althoff missed 1 (2.3%). 39 of the unanswered calls (90.7%) sat in the call-center bucket with no contractor attribution.
Data Reference Note (January–October 2025): During this period website call lines were forwarded into the call center, so calls handled there appear as “Sent to Call Center” without contractor attribution. A portion of those calls may also be reflected in contractor-attributed figures; the combined totals for this month are provided as a consolidated reference and should be read with that potential overlap in mind.
