Every missed call is a customer you already paid to reach. These are the moments it happens most.
Burst pipes, sewer backups and flooding happen at the worst hours. Homeowners call until someone answers.
You can't answer with your hands in a drain. Most new callers won't leave a voicemail.
"Something's leaking" doesn't tell you what to bring or how long the job will take.
People call several plumbers for water heaters and repipes. The first to answer and take details usually wins.
An assistant that sounds natural, knows your business and tells callers up front that it's AI.
It asks whether water is actively leaking, whether they can shut it off, and follows your rules for each answer.
It texts a link so callers can send photos of the leak, fixture or water heater label.
Service address, access notes and the best callback number, every time.
Service area, hours, trip or diagnostic fees and what you handle, from your information only.
Every call is texted to you as a summary and logged in a sheet you can search.
Calls forward only when you don't answer, only after hours, or all the time.
Lead follow-up gets web and Google leads a fast reply, and a simple job tracker keeps every request visible from first call to invoice.
Yes. It asks a few quick questions, like whether water is actively leaking and whether they can shut it off, then follows your rules.
You decide. It can put the call through to your on-call plumber, text them the details, or schedule a first-thing callback.
Only prices you give it, like a trip fee or diagnostic fee. Everything else is collected for you to quote.
