Calls you miss on the tools

Calls come in from homeowners, landlords and businesses while you're on site. A missed call from someone who has just collected a new car is easily lost to another installer.

Example calls, and how InstallerLine handles them

Home charger quote

The call: A caller has just ordered an electric car and wants a charger fitted on their driveway.

What InstallerLine does: Asks your questions (off-street parking, where the charger would go, how far that is from the consumer unit, the car if they know it) and pencils in a survey or install visit as provisional.

What you get: A summary with the answers and a provisional slot to confirm, move or decline.

A workplace enquiry

The call: An office manager wants a price for several chargers in a staff car park.

What InstallerLine does: Takes the business details, how many chargers they're thinking of and the site address, and marks it as a call-back for you.

What you get: An email and text with the enquiry, so you can call back while it's fresh.

A charger has stopped working

The call: An existing customer says their charger has gone offline.

What InstallerLine does: Takes the details, including any error light or message, and passes it to you as a call-back without trying to fix it.

What you get: A call-back request with the customer's details.

What it handles for EV charger installers

✅ It will

  • Answer in your business name, 24/7, in plain British English
  • Tell callers it's an AI assistant and that the call is recorded
  • Take name, phone, postcode, address and job details, and read them back
  • Home charger enquiries and survey visits
  • Workplace, landlord and fleet enquiries
  • Aftercare calls about faulty or offline chargers
  • Approved FAQs: area, chargers you fit, hours
  • Text back callers who hang up

❌ It won't

  • Pretend to be a person
  • Diagnose faults or give technical advice
  • Quote prices you haven't approved
  • Promise a firm time or price, or take card payments
  • Treat emergencies as routine jobs
Safety comes first. We agree the safety wording with you before your line goes live. For example, if a caller describes sparking, a burning smell, scorch marks or exposed wires, the AI tells them to keep clear and call 999 if anyone is in danger, gives the free 105 number for a power cut, and flags the call to you as urgent. It never gives electrical advice or pencils these in as normal jobs.

How it works

The demo answers as a fictional heating firm, Borders Heating. Your line is set up for your own trade, with your services, area, hours and the questions you want asked.

Standard UK call rates apply. Calls to the demo line are recorded and transcribed so we can improve the service. Borders Heating isn't a real firm, so nobody will be sent out.

Questions from EV charger installers

Does InstallerLine work for EV charger installers?

Yes. We set it up for your firm: your services, area, hours, the questions you want asked and what counts as urgent. You approve exactly what it's allowed to say before it goes live.

Do I need to change my phone number?

No. You keep your number and divert calls you don't answer (or all calls, if you prefer) to your InstallerLine number. Your phone provider may charge for diverted calls, depending on your plan.

Does it confirm jobs on its own?

No. On Receptionist and Busy Firm it pencils jobs and visits into your diary as provisional, and nothing is final until you confirm with one tap or reply with another time. If you don't confirm within 24 hours (or 2 hours before the slot, if sooner), the slot is released and the caller is told you'll ring them.

Will callers know it's an AI?

Yes. It says so at the start of every call, and it tells callers the call is recorded.

Can it answer questions about EV charger grants?

Only with wording you've approved. Grant rules change, so by default it takes the question and passes it to you.

Can it send me photos of the install location?

Not yet. It asks the questions you choose and puts the answers in your summary, so you know what you're looking at before you ring back.
