Question 1

How fast does Mikla answer a fencing lead?

Accepted Answer

Under a minute, whatever time the call lands. Mikla handles the phone, your Google listing, web forms, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, SMS, Yelp, and email. Homeowners call three fence companies in an afternoon. The job usually goes to whoever measures first.

Question 2

Can Mikla get the linear footage before the estimate?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and that one answer decides whether the visit is worth making. Mikla asks roughly how many feet of run the customer wants. It asks which sides of the property are involved, how many gates and how wide, and whether an old fence comes down first.

Question 3

What about property lines, surveys, and utility locates?

Accepted Answer

Mikla asks whether the customer has a survey or knows where the pins are. It flags the ones who do not. It notes that a utility locate has to be called in before anyone digs. It books the estimate and passes the notes. It marks no boundary and rules on no setback.

Question 4

Do customers know which materials we carry?

Accepted Answer

They do by the time your estimator arrives. Mikla is trained on what you install and what you refuse. Cedar, pressure treated pine, vinyl, ornamental aluminum, chain link, composite, and the heights you build. Someone asking for a material you do not stock hears that on the first message.

Question 5

How does Mikla handle permit and association rules?

Accepted Answer

It asks whether the property sits inside a homeowners association. It asks whether the town requires a permit for the height and style the customer wants. Both answers go on the appointment. Mikla does not pull permits or promise that a design will be approved.

Question 6

Our phones are unmanageable in spring. Does that break it?

Accepted Answer

Spring is what it is for. The thaw arrives and everyone decides at once. Your office headcount does not change. Mikla answers every caller in order, asks the same questions, and fills the estimate calendar even when the queue is twenty deep.

Question 7

Most of our calls start with a dog. Does Mikla know what to ask?

Accepted Answer

A new dog is the most common reason the phone rings. Mikla asks how much of the yard has to be enclosed, whether the dog digs or jumps, and how soon they need it contained. Those answers usually point straight at a height and a bottom-rail choice.

Question 8

Will it work with the CRM and estimating software we already use?

Accepted Answer

Mikla hands over each qualified lead with the transcript and any photos of the yard. It puts the appointment on the calendar your crew already checks. Name the tools your office runs on and we will show that handoff end to end.
