On site means off the phone
You cannot quote a rewire while you are in a consumer unit, under a sink, on scaffolding, or measuring a roof. Voicemail is not a sales process, and missed calls rarely ring back twice.
Built for UK electricians, plumbers, builders, roofers, gas engineers and joiners
Never Miss a Job Again
TradesCall AI answers your calls 24/7, takes the job details, books the appointment, and sends the confirmation text while you stay on the tools. Built for UK electricians, plumbers, builders, roofers and heating engineers who lose work because the phone rings while they are mid-job.
The pain point
Most trades businesses do not have a lead problem. They have a missed-call problem.
UK tradespeople lose work when the phone rings during site visits, school runs, evening meals, or Sunday emergencies. If nobody answers, the caller rings the next number on Google. Simple as that.
Featured-snippet answer: TradesCall AI stops missed jobs by answering every call, collecting the information you need, and moving the customer into a confirmed booking before they drift to a competitor.
🌙
Evenings and weekends bring intent
Homeowners usually ring when they finally notice the leak, the flickering lights, or the damaged fascia. That intent often arrives after normal hours.
💷
Hiring a receptionist is overkill
A full-time receptionist is expensive for a 1-5 person trade team. TradesCall AI gives you proper front-desk coverage without payroll, holiday cover, pensions, or training overhead.
What it does
Built to behave like a sharp, organised front desk for trades.
Not a generic chatbot with a phone line bolted on. The flow is tuned for real inbound trade calls: job intake, postcode filtering, urgency, availability, callout policy, and confirmation.
📞
Answers every call
Sarah answers in your business name, day or night, without sending callers into voicemail purgatory.
📝
Takes full job details
Name, number, address or postcode, job description, urgency, access notes, and preferred appointment window are captured in one flow.
📅
Books appointments
Available slots are offered through your connected calendar so customers leave the call with an actual time instead of a vague promise.
📲
Sends confirmation texts
Call summary, booked time, and your next step can be sent to the customer immediately after the call.
❓
Handles common questions
Coverage areas, free quotes, callout fees, payment methods, emergency availability, and lead times are answered consistently.
🚨
Escalates emergencies
Gas leak, flooding, sparking consumer unit, or other critical issues can trigger immediate human callback rules rather than passive message taking.
How it works
Four steps from missed calls to booked work.
1
Forward your number
You forward your current mobile or landline to your TradesCall AI number. No public rebrand needed.
2
Load your business rules
We add your services, postcode coverage, FAQs, callout rules, and the way you want jobs triaged.
3
Connect calendar
Google Calendar, Outlook, or Cal.com powers the live slots Sarah can offer callers, so the customer leaves the call with an actual time.
4
Go live
Every inbound call gets answered, logged, and pushed toward a booked appointment or an urgent callback.
Commercial reality
One recovered job usually pays for the month.
No invented testimonials. The commercial case is simpler than that: if one missed boiler call, consumer-unit quote, leak visit, or fascia repair turns into a booked job, the subscription has usually justified itself.
Electricians
Fault-finding, EICRs, landlord certs and consumer-unit work are easy to qualify by phone and expensive to lose to a faster competitor.
Plumbers and heating engineers
Leaks, boiler pressure issues and no-hot-water calls come with urgency. Speed to answer matters more than polished branding.
Builders, roofers and joiners
Larger-ticket quote requests often come in while the team is on site. Structured intake keeps the lead warm and the handoff clean.
Pricing
Low enough for a sole trader. Useful enough for a growing team.
All plans include the free 14-day trial, UK voice setup, your trade-specific call flow, and honest month-to-month pricing.

FAQ
The questions tradespeople ask before they buy.
How quickly can I get set up?
Most trades businesses can be live the same day. Forwarding the number usually takes two minutes, and the calendar connection is straightforward.
Will callers know it is AI?
Sarah speaks clearly and professionally like a front-desk receptionist. If a caller explicitly asks, the assistant can answer honestly while still continuing the booking flow.
Can it handle pricing questions?
Yes. It can share approved pricing ranges, callout fees, and quote policy. For anything too variable, it captures the lead and positions a callback or quote visit instead.
What counts as an emergency?
You set the rules, but common triggers include gas leaks, active flooding, no heating for vulnerable customers, and dangerous electrical faults. Gas leaks should always trigger immediate human callback.
Can I keep my current business mobile?
Yes. TradesCall AI is designed around simple call forwarding, so your current number stays on your vans, cards, Checkatrade profile, and Google Business listing.
Does it work for evenings and weekends?
That is where it earns its keep. TradesCall AI keeps answering when you are on site, eating, asleep, or refusing to answer a Sunday boiler panic by hand.
