Portland's glass won't stay grimy — and your phone shouldn't either.
Callbook is an AI receptionist that answers every call 24/7 in English and Spanish, books the cleaning or estimate straight onto your calendar, and texts you a summary the moment the call ends. It asks the right questions — interior or exterior, single-story or two-story, hard-water spots, screens and tracks — so you roll up to every job already scoped. Flat $79/month, no contract, and you keep your existing number.
Why Portland window cleaning companies can't afford a missed call
Portland weather does your marketing for you — and then dares you to answer the phone. Nine wet months coat glass in algae, green mossy film, and mineral-streaked runoff, and the city's older homes in Alberta, Hawthorne, Sellwood, and Irvington have the divided lites and storms that homeowners want hand-detailed, not blasted. Then the dry season hits and exterior demand compresses into summer, with everyone calling at once to get crystal glass before the rain returns. Storefronts along Hawthorne, Mississippi, and the Pearl District need recurring routes kept on schedule, while Beaverton and Lake Oswego bring two-story estimates and hard-water restoration on patio doors and shower glass. Squeegee in one hand, ladder steadied with the other, you physically can't catch the ring — and a window cleaner who misses it loses the route to whoever picked up. Callbook answers every call, books the cleaning or estimate, and texts you the details.
If Callbook books just one extra job a month, it has already paid for itself several times over.
Most shops miss far more than one call a month.
How it works
It answers every call — 24/7
On a job, under a sink, or asleep at 2am, your AI picks up on the first ring and talks like a real receptionist.
It books the job
It collects the name, address, and problem, then drops the appointment straight into your calendar.
It texts you the details
You get an instant text with the job and the customer’s number — show up and get paid.
Live in about a day. Keep your current number. We set it up for your shop.
What your AI receptionist handles
Every call, first ring
No more voicemail. It picks up while you're up a ladder or finishing a squeegee pass, and callers hear a real receptionist who keeps the lead warm instead of hanging up.
Cleanings booked in real time
Collects the name, neighborhood, and scope — interior and exterior, two-story, hard-water spots, screens and tracks — and drops the job straight onto your Google Calendar, Jobber, or Housecall Pro.
Catches after-hours and overflow
When summer calls pile up faster than you can answer, or someone rings after you've packed up for the day, it books every one so peak-season and evening leads don't slip to the cleaner across town.
Answers in Spanish too
Handles Spanish-speaking callers naturally and books their cleanings the same way — so you never lose a job or a recurring route to a language barrier.

Why Portland shops pick Callbook
A short exterior window, all at once
When Portland finally dries out for summer, exterior demand stacks into a few months and every call counts. Callbook books cleanings and estimates around the clock so a packed route doesn't mean leads slip away.
Built for the trades
It understands interior vs. exterior, single- and two-story access, hard-water and mineral-spot removal, screen and track cleaning, and recurring storefront routes — not just 'press 1 for sales.' Callers reach a receptionist who speaks glass.
Flat $79/mo, no contract
No per-minute billing and no commitment. One booked whole-home cleaning or a single recurring storefront route pays for the service many times over, and you can cancel anytime.
We set it up for you
We configure it for your business — your services, your hours, your service area from inner Portland out to Beaverton and Lake Oswego — so you don't touch a thing. Live in about a day.
Simple, flat pricing
Questions window cleaning companies ask
How much does it cost?
Flat $79/month with 250 minutes of talk time included — that's a lot of cleaning and estimate calls. If you go over, it's just $0.40 per extra minute. No contract, no setup fee, and you can cancel anytime. One booked whole-home cleaning typically covers the service for months.
Does it really answer in Spanish?
Yes. Callbook handles callers in both English and Spanish, 24/7. It asks the same window-cleaning questions and books the job the same way, so you don't lose Spanish-speaking customers to a cleaner who can't take the call.
Will it book onto the calendar I already use?
Yes. It integrates with Google Calendar, Jobber, Housecall Pro, and ServiceTitan, so cleanings and estimates land where you already run your schedule. After every call it also texts you a summary with the customer's number and the job details.
Do I have to change my phone number?
No. You keep your existing number. We forward your calls to Callbook — all of them, or just your missed and after-hours calls, your choice — so nothing changes for your customers. Setup usually takes about a day.
