Question 1

How quickly does Mikla answer a siding inquiry?

Accepted Answer

Mikla answers a siding inquiry in under a minute, day or night. It answers your phone, your Google listing, your website form, Facebook, Instagram, SMS, WhatsApp, Yelp, and email. A homeowner replacing a whole exterior calls three companies in one weekend. The first company to book a measurement usually gets the work.

Question 2

Can Mikla scope a house before an estimator drives out?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It asks how big the house is and how many stories it has. It asks how many windows and doors break up the walls, and whether there are gables or dormers. It asks what material is on the house now. Your estimator knows the size of the job before leaving the yard.

Question 3

Does it understand the difference between vinyl, fiber cement, and cedar?

Accepted Answer

It talks about the lines you sell. Insulated vinyl, fiber cement, engineered wood, and cedar are four different budgets. They also take different amounts of time to install. Mikla gives your range for each one. Your estimator confirms the real number on site.

Question 4

What happens when there is rot behind the old siding?

Accepted Answer

Mikla asks the questions that predict it. Soft or spongy boards, stains inside the wall, old leaks at the trim, and the age of the house wrap. It writes the answers down for your estimator. It tells the homeowner that sheathing repair is priced once the wall is open. It never guesses at the cost.

Question 5

Can it handle hail and storm work?

Accepted Answer

It records the date of the storm and which walls were hit. It asks whether panels are cracked or only faded. It asks whether a claim is already open. All of that goes to your estimator with the photos. Mikla gives no claim advice, quotes no settlement, and never speaks with an adjuster.

Question 6

Who chases the homeowner while they pick a colour?

Accepted Answer

Mikla does, on the schedule you set. A signed job can sit for weeks while the homeowner picks a colour or a trim. Mikla keeps the conversation going and confirms the choice when it comes. It then tells the customer the current lead time, so the install date is no surprise.

Question 7

We only work certain towns. Will it turn the rest away?

Accepted Answer

Mikla checks the address against the towns you cover and the drive time your crews accept. It also holds the states your company is licensed in. Anything outside that gets a polite no. Mikla is software. It holds no licence and never says it is licensed to work on a house.

Question 8

Will Mikla give a price per square over the phone?

Accepted Answer

No. It gives the ranges you set for each line you carry. It explains what moves the price. Story count, cut-up walls, tearing off the old material, and anything found behind it. The real number comes from your estimator after the walls are measured.

Question 9

Can it take a partial job seriously?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and it checks the request against your rules. One wall after a tree came down is real work. Eight feet of panel in a colour nobody makes any more usually is not. Mikla can say so politely instead of booking a morning that ends in an apology.
