What the phone looks like for a Southampton emergency plumbing company
Southampton and the wider Hampshire has a population of around 900,000, built on maritime, logistics and marine trades. That produces a lot of phone calls, and for a emergency plumbing company working across Portswood, Bitterne and Shirley most of them arrive at the exact moment nobody can pick up.
Your entire proposition is answering when nobody else does, and a missed 2am call is a customer who will never try you again.
Callwise answers on your own 023 number. Customers ring the number they already have, it is answered on the first ring by something that sounds like a person, and the job is booked into your diary before the caller has thought about trying anybody else.

Southampton emergency plumbing companies ask us
Do we keep our 023 number?
Yes. Your existing 023 number stays exactly as it is and keeps ringing your phones. Calls only reach the assistant when nobody picks up, or at the hours you choose, so nothing about how Southampton customers reach you changes.
Do you work with emergency plumbing companies outside Southampton?
Yes. There is nothing local about how it works, so Southampton and everywhere across Hampshire is covered the same way, along with the rest of the UK. The local part is your number and your customers, and both stay yours.
We advertise 24 hours. Does that change the maths?
It makes it worse. Advertising 24 hour cover and then not answering at 2am is the most expensive kind of missed call, because it is exactly the promise the customer rang to test.
Can it decide what is worth waking me for?
You set the rules. Flooding wakes you, a dripping tap gets booked for Tuesday, and you see both in the morning.
Will it quote out of hours rates?
Yes, clearly and up front, which is better than a customer being surprised by the invoice.

Hear it answer, then decide
Ring it and ask what a Southampton customer would ask. It is the same assistant your callers would get, so if it does not convince you on the phone it will not convince them either.
