What the phone looks like for a Leicester heating company
Leicester and the wider Leicestershire has a population of around 600,000, built on textiles, logistics and a dense independent business community. That produces a lot of phone calls, and for a heating company working across Clarendon Park, Oadby and Braunstone most of them arrive at the exact moment nobody can pick up.
A cold house with children in it is an emergency to the person ringing, and they will not leave a message.
Callwise answers on your own 0116 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.

Leicester heating companies ask us
Do we keep our 0116 number?
Yes. Your existing 0116 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 Leicester customers reach you changes.
Do you work with heating companies outside Leicester?
Yes. There is nothing local about how it works, so Leicester and everywhere across Leicestershire 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.
What about the first cold snap?
That week is the reason. Call volume can triple in a day, and the calls you cannot get to are the boiler replacements, not the services.
Can it take the boiler details?
Make, model, age, fault and whether there is any heat at all, so you arrive with the right part rather than making two visits.
Does it handle landlord certificates?
Yes. It takes the property details and the deadline and books the visit, which is steady work most engineers under collect.

Hear it answer, then decide
Ring it and ask what a Leicester 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.
