Example call: a storm leak after hours

8:40 on a stormy Friday in Kellyville.

Example business. One after-hours call, start to finish.

8:40 pm
Caller
“The storm’s lifted some tiles and there’s a wet patch on the bedroom ceiling. Can someone come tonight?”
What's happening
8:40 pm
The receptionist
“You’re through to Ridgeline Roofing. I’m the AI assistant, and I’ll get this to the team. What’s the address? And is water coming through the ceiling right now?”
What's happening
8:41 pm
Caller
“Banksia Street, Kellyville. Yes, it’s dripping into a bucket.”
8:42 pm
The receptionist
“Thanks. Please stay off the roof and out of the ceiling. If water gets near a light or power point, keep clear and ring 000. I can book an inspection for 7 to 9 tomorrow, or take a message for a call-back tonight. Which suits you?”
What's happening
Result
Inspection booked for 7 to 9 tomorrow, with a text to the caller and the roofer. Nobody went up a ladder in the dark.
Example call for an example business. Your questions, safety lines and wording are set up for you. How the AI receptionist works →
From the example

It kept the caller off the roof.

A leak at night tempts people up a ladder. It told the caller to stay down and clear of power, then booked the inspection. A caller kept safe tonight trusts you with the repair later.
What it does

What it does, and what it hands to you.

It answers and books the routine calls. Anything that needs a roofer comes straight to you.

What it does

The routine part of every call

First ring · Any hour · Every call
Answers on the first ring: after hours, at weekends and through the rush after a storm.
Takes the address and asks about water inside, then reads out your safety line.
Sorts the job by your rules: storm leaks first, then repairs, gutters and quotes.
Books the inspection or quote visit into a free time in your calendar.
What it hands to you

The part that needs a roofer

Immediately · By your rule · Every time
A text when the call ends: who rang, the problem, the address and the booking.
Anyone who asks for you. It takes a message and requests a call-back.
Jobs it can’t price by phone, like a re-roof or storm repair, booked as an inspection.
Calls outside your area or your work, with a polite no and a note for you.
You choose where the line sits, and you can move it later. Missed call text back → · How booking works →
Safety rules

What it will never do.

Some calls need you or an emergency line, not an assistant. These rules are fixed, and a caller can’t talk it out of them.

Hard stop

Never ignores a power hazard

Power lines down, or water near a light or power point, gets one answer: stay well clear. Ring 000 if anyone is in danger, or the SES on 132 500 for storm help.
Roofs and ceilings

Never sends anyone onto a roof

It never tells a caller to climb onto a roof or into a ceiling, even to check a leak. It tells them to stay down and leaves the roof to you.
Prices

Never quotes a repair you haven’t approved

It quotes only the prices you approved. A re-roof or storm repair gets an inspection booked, not a guess.
Times

Never promises a time it can’t see

It only offers times that are free in your calendar. If nothing’s free tonight, it says so and sends you the details straight away.
Insurance

Never confirms insurance cover

It never tells a caller their insurer will pay. Cover is between them and their insurer. It books the inspection and passes the details to you.
Fixed rules, not settings. You choose the wording and the emergency number it reads out. What it can get wrong, in our words →

Questions

What roofers ask before they start.

It speaks naturally, in your business’s name, and says it’s an AI assistant in its first sentence. You hear it and test it before it takes a real call. What callers mind in a storm is voicemail, and this answers on the first ring.

No. It only offers times that are free in your calendar, at the job lengths you set. It quotes only the prices you approved. Anything it can’t price, like a re-roof or storm repair, gets booked as an inspection. Every call is recorded and written up, so you can check what was said.

Growth is A$499 a month plus a one-time A$1,999 set-up fee, ex GST. Calls are A$0.03 a minute and texts A$0.11 sent and A$0.02 received, billed by use. Most businesses spend about A$30 to A$70 a month on those. Prices are locked in for your first 12 months.

No. It’s month to month, with no lock-in contract and no exit fee. Just give 30 days’ notice to cancel. The set-up fee isn’t refundable, except where the law requires it or for a billing error.

Yes. Your number stays on the ute, the website and your Google listing. You divert calls to the AI when you choose: after hours, in a storm rush, or all the time. Or use the Australian mobile number we include. How call forwarding works →
