AI receptionist for plumbers
You can’t take a call with both hands in a boiler. Your AI receptionist answers the calls you miss in your business’s name, tells customers which areas you cover, books visits into your diary and takes proper messages, so the next job doesn’t ring someone else.
How it works for plumbers
Your phone rings first
Set it to the calls you miss and your own phone rings as normal. Only when you can’t pick up does the receptionist answer, as your business and saying it’s an AI assistant, so regulars still get you when you’re free.
Emergencies handled safely
If a caller mentions a gas smell, a flood or someone hurt, it tells them to get safe and call the emergency services, books nothing and offers an urgent message, so a dangerous job never waits in a diary slot.
Boiler services booked in
With online bookings on, it offers callers real free slots for a boiler service or a quote visit, reads the address and details back, and books them in with the usual confirmation and reminder.
It knows your patch
Add your price list, call-out rules and the towns you cover. It answers from those and your website, and when a question isn’t covered, it says so and takes a message instead of guessing.
Boiler service
A cold Monday at Oakvale Heating
Three callers handled while Chris fitted a boiler
Chris was halfway through a combi swap in Balderton when the phone went three times in an hour. The receptionist took them all. One was a regular asking about a service, booked in for Thursday morning. One smelled gas, and was told to get out of the house and call the emergency services, with an urgent message left for Chris. The third wanted a quote for a new bathroom, so it took his number and the details. Chris read the three summaries over his lunch.

More for plumbers
It doesn’t try to fix it or book it. If a caller mentions a gas leak, flooding, fire or someone hurt, it tells them to get safe and call the emergency services, books nothing, and offers to take an urgent message for you.
Only prices you’ve given it, from your website or a price list you add. It’s told never to guess a price, so for anything that needs a look first, like a full bathroom, it takes the details and a number for you to call back.
Yes, a business number we set up for you, which rings your own phone first. The receptionist picks up the calls you miss on that number. Put it on your van, website and Google profile so customers ring it.
