Hire AI Receptionists — Never Miss Another Customer Call
24/7 AI Phone Answering for Electricians, Plumbers, Locksmiths & Tradespeople in Ireland
Your AI receptionist answers every call, books appointments, captures leads, and notifies you and your customer instantly — even when you're on a job, driving, or asleep. No voicemail. No missed jobs. No hiring staff.
What Does the AI Receptionist Do?
- Answers calls 24/7 — nights, weekends, bank holidays. Your phone is always answered professionally.
- Books appointments — the AI schedules jobs directly into your calendar and confirms with the customer.
- Captures every lead — name, number, job details, location. Nothing falls through the cracks.
- Instant notifications — you get the lead via email, SMS, or WhatsApp within seconds.
- Customer confirmations — your customer receives an automatic booking confirmation and reminder.
- Emergency prioritisation — urgent calls (burst pipes, lockouts, power failures) are flagged and you're alerted immediately.
- Custom-trained — the AI knows your services, pricing, service areas, and business hours. It sounds like a real receptionist who works for you.

The Problem We Solve
When you're up a ladder, under a sink, or driving to a job — you can't answer the phone. That missed call is a missed job. 80% of callers won't leave a voicemail — they'll ring your competitor instead.
Hiring a receptionist costs €25,000–€35,000 per year. A call answering service charges per minute and still can't book jobs or answer technical questions about your services.
An AI Receptionist from Hire AI Receptionists costs a fraction of either option, works 24/7/365, and is trained specifically on your business.
Pricing
€250 one-time setup — we train the AI on your business: services, pricing, service areas, FAQs, and booking preferences.
€297 per month — everything included. Unlimited calls, appointment booking, lead capture, instant notifications, customer confirmations.
No contracts. No hidden fees. Cancel anytime.
If the AI books you just one extra job per month, it's already paid for itself.
How It Works
- We train your AI — tell us about your business, services, pricing, and service areas. Setup takes 2–3 business days.
- Set up call forwarding — forward your existing number when you're busy, on a job, or after hours. You keep your number. No changes needed.
- AI answers your calls — your AI receptionist picks up instantly, handles the enquiry, books the job, and captures the lead.

It sounds natural and professional, just like a real receptionist.
How long does it take to set up?

An AI Receptionist costs a fraction of hiring staff — typically 60–80% less than employing a part-time receptionist. It's just €250 one-time setup and €297/month — everything included. No contracts or hidden fees.
Do I need to change my phone number?

The AI is trained on your specific business, but if a question falls outside its knowledge, it will politely take the caller's details and let them know you'll call back shortly. You never lose the lead.
Do I need any special equipment or software?
