Trades & call-outs

You are under a sink. We will get that.

A missed call is a missed job, and the next name on the list picks it up instead. Ferrison answers while you work, takes the details and books the call-out.

What it handles

It answers so you do not have to down tools.

Always answers

Picks up on the job

Under a sink, up a ladder or driving between jobs, every call is answered instead of ringing out.

Call-outs

Books the slot

Takes the job type, the address and how urgent it is, then books the call-out into your diary and confirms it.

Quotes

Captures quote requests

When a job needs pricing, it takes the name, the number and exactly what needs doing, ready for you to quote.

FAQs

Answers the same five questions

Call-out charge, areas covered, hours, emergency cover. Answered from what you told it, every time.

Online quotes

Enquiries while you work

A booking page that leads with “Get a quote”, plus a chat for your own website, so jobs come in even when you are nowhere near the phone.

Confirmations

Nobody forgets the slot

The customer gets a confirmation with the date, the time and what you are coming to do, then a reminder before you arrive.

How it sounds

An emergency call-out, taken while you were mid-job.

Illustrative example — not a real customer conversation
Caller

Hi, my boiler is not firing at all and there is no hot water. Can someone come out?

Ferrison

Sorry to hear that. We cover Stockport and south Manchester, and the call-out charge is £65 including the first half hour. Are you within that area?

Caller

Yes, Heaton Moor. Today if possible.

Ferrison

There is a slot between 4 and 6 this afternoon. Can I take the address and a mobile number, and I will book you in?

✓ Call-out booked, address and number captured, confirmation sent.
What it costs

No subscription. Pay only for what it answers.

There is no monthly plan underneath this. You start with £10 of free credit, then load a prepaid balance that the assistant draws from as it works.
