The problem

The calls you can't take

Your hands are full

You're in a crawl space or halfway through a water heater swap. The phone buzzes in your pocket and you can't touch it. A lot of callers won't leave a voicemail. They call the next plumber on Google.

Emergencies come after hours

Leaks, backups and no-hot-water calls show up at 9 PM on a Sunday. The homeowner keeps going down the list until somebody picks up, and that somebody usually gets the job.

Help costs a salary

A receptionist goes home at five and an answering service reads a script. You need someone who picks up at midnight, asks the right questions and writes it all down for you.

A sample call

A real plumbing call, handled

Here's how Maria handles a typical call for a plumbing business. The business (Oak Street Plumbing) and the caller are made up. The flow is what your customers get.

When she hangs up, the details go straight to the owner by text and email, like the summary at the top of this page.

● ANSWERED BY MARIA8:47 PM
MariaThanks for calling Oak Street Plumbing, this is Maria. How can I help?
CallerHi, there's water coming up through the floor by my kitchen sink.
MariaI'm sorry, that sounds stressful. Let me get a few details so the plumber can call you right back. What's your name?
CallerMike Torres.
MariaThanks, Mike. What's the best number to reach you?

What she asks

The questions that matter

We set Maria up with the questions your business needs. For plumbing calls, that usually means:

  • Name and the best number to call back
  • The service address
  • What's happening: leak, clog, no hot water, sewer backup or a new install
  • Whether the water is shut off
  • Homeowner, renter or property manager
  • When they need someone: right now, today or this week

Want her to ask something else? Tell us during setup and she will.

Built around your day

How it fits your work

You don't have to give up your phone. Keep answering when you can and forward only the calls you miss. When you're free, you pick up. When you're under a sink, Maria does.

Nights and weekends are where plumbing calls get expensive to miss. Maria answers at 2 AM the same way she answers at 2 PM, then sends you the details, so you decide whether it's a midnight trip or a first-thing-tomorrow callback.

Every summary arrives as a text and an email, so you end the week with a written record of who called, where they are and what they needed. No more numbers scribbled on the back of an invoice.

What Maria does today

We'd rather you know exactly what you're getting. Here's the honest list.

She does

  • Answers your calls 24/7, nights, weekends and holidays included
  • Greets callers with your business name and sounds natural, not like a phone menu
  • Asks for the caller's name, number, what they need, the address and when they need it
  • Sends you a text and an email with those details as soon as the call ends

Not yet

  • She doesn't book jobs into your calendar. You call the customer back and set the time
  • She doesn't transfer live calls to your phone
  • She doesn't quote prices or promise arrival times. She leaves that to you

FAQ

Plumbers: questions owners ask

What happens with emergency plumbing calls at night?

Maria answers, gets the details and asks when they need someone. The moment she hangs up you get the text and email, so you can decide right away whether to call back tonight. She doesn't dispatch anyone or promise an arrival time. That's your call.

Will callers know Maria is an AI?

She sounds natural, so callers talk to her the way they'd talk to a receptionist. If someone asks whether she's a real person, she tells the truth.

Can I keep my business number?

Yes. You turn on call forwarding to Maria's number, for every call or only the ones you don't answer. Customers keep dialing the number they already have.

Can Maria book the job on my calendar?

Not yet. Today she takes the caller's details and sends them to you, and you call back to set the time. We'll say so here when booking is ready.

What if a caller asks how much it costs?

Maria doesn't quote prices. She tells the caller the plumber will go over pricing when they call back, and notes the question in your summary.

How fast do I get the details?

The text and email go out as soon as the call ends, while the customer is still waiting by the phone.
