You're good at the work. It's everything around it.

Calls missed while you're up a ladder. Quotes that sit for days. Chasing, rebooking, and paperwork at the kitchen table. That's where the evenings go.

Where it gets stuckWhat it costs youThe evidence
Calls missed while you're on a job
The customer rings the next firm.
A third of micro businesses failed to answer incoming calls, and 69% of callers who reached voicemail hung up without leaving a message. Moneypenny, 2016
Quotes take days to go out
The job goes to whoever gets back first.
Firms that replied to an enquiry within an hour were nearly 7 times as likely to get a proper conversation with the customer as those that replied an hour later. Harvard Business Review, 2011
Quotes go quiet
Work you've already priced never gets booked.
We couldn't find a figure we trust for this one, so we won't quote one.
Chasing payment
Hours on the phone, and cash tied up.
Late payments cost the UK economy almost £11 billion a year, and 38 businesses close every day because of them. UK Government, 2025
Asking for reviews
Happy customers never leave one.
83% of people who were asked to leave a review went on to leave one. BrightLocal, 2026 (US survey)

Then the clockwork starts.

A sample day across the trades

What it does while you work.

Scroll and the hand moves through one working day for a roofer, a plumber, an electrician and a builder. Each job it handles for them lights up as the hand passes.

Automation does a task. An agentic workflow does a job.

A customer gets in touch at 9pm about a leak. Plain automation replies "thanks, we'll be in touch", and nothing else happens until you see it.

An agentic workflow handles the whole thing, then tells you it's done. Here's how it runs.

A sample workflow

The 9pm leak, step by step.

Every step is logged. Your rules decide what it can do on its own, and anything unusual comes to you first.

  1. Customer

    A call comes in

    "Got a leak over the back bedroom. Can someone come and look?" You're up a ladder on another job.

  2. Agent

    It picks up straight away

    It answers in your business name and says it's your assistant, not a person.

  3. Agent

    It gets the details

    What's happening, their name and postcode, and a photo by text or WhatsApp.

  4. Agent

    It makes it safe

    It talks them through turning the water off at the stopcock and keeping clear of any electrics near the water, only if it's safe to.

    Your stopcock is usually under the kitchen sink. Turn it clockwise until it stops. Don't touch any switches or sockets near the water.
  5. Agent

    It checks the job

    The postcode is in your area. Water coming through a ceiling, so it's marked urgent.

  6. Calendar

    It checks your diary

    It finds the first free slots: 9am or 1pm tomorrow.

  7. Agent

    It books the job in

    The customer picks 9am. It goes in your calendar and they get a confirmation.

    You're booked in for 9am tomorrow. Keep clear of the area and put a bucket down if it's safe to.
  8. You

    It tells you, or the engineer

    A summary with the photo, address and slot, by text or WhatsApp. Prices and anything unusual wait for your OK.

    New urgent job: leak, back bedroom ceiling, BL5. Booked 9am tomorrow. Photo attached.
  9. Agent

    It follows up

    A reminder on the morning of the job, and one polite nudge if they go quiet.

Six parts. Each one takes a job off you.

We fit only the parts your business needs, in the tools you already use: your phone, WhatsApp, email, calendar and job software.

  1. The catcher

    Every missed call and message gets a reply straight away. It takes the details and books a call-back.

    Sorry we missed you, we're up on a roof. What's the job and your postcode? We'll ring you back today.

  2. The quote engine

    Quotes drafted from your survey notes and photos, ready for you to check and send the same day.

  3. The chaser

    Polite follow-ups on quiet quotes and unpaid invoices, stopped the moment they reply.

  4. The diary

    Bookings, confirmations and reminders, and easy rebooking when the weather turns.

  5. The review asker

    A review request goes out the day a job is signed off.

    Thanks for having us. If you're happy with the roof, a quick review would mean a lot.

  6. The front desk

    Answers "do you cover...?" and "how much is...?" on your site and WhatsApp, in your words.

First on the bench: D & P Roofing.

Roofers and builders near Bolton, with 30 years on the tools and 5.0 from 142 reviews on Which?. Their site didn't show any of that. We researched their local competitors, then rebuilt it to beat them.

How it works.

  1. A free 30 minute call

    Tell us how your week runs and where it hurts. No cost, no obligation.

  2. The Clockwork Check £495

    We look at how your business runs, from the first enquiry to getting paid, and work out what would make the biggest difference. You get one clear recommendation, with one fixed price to build it and any monthly cost shown up front.

    Go ahead within 60 days and the £495 comes off that price. If we can't find 5 hours a week to save you, you get your money back.

  3. We build it, you approve it

    Nothing goes live until you've checked it. You keep your number and the tools you already use, and we look after it afterwards if you want us to.

  • Keep your number
  • No tech skills needed
  • You approve every message
  • You own what we build
  • Cancel monthly support any time

Fair questions.

Do I need to be good with computers?

No. We set it all up and show you how it works. Most of it runs without you touching anything, and the bits that need you come to your phone.

Will I keep my phone number?

Yes. The number on your van, your cards and Google stays exactly the same.

What if it says something wrong?

You agree the wording before anything goes live, and anything unusual, like prices or discounts, comes to you first. Every message is logged, so you can check it any time.

Do I own it?

Yes. If you stop the monthly support, you keep what we built.

What does it cost each month?

Websites are £39 a month for hosting and care. Automations are £149 a month if you'd like us to look after them, or nothing if you don't. You'll see the monthly cost before you agree to anything.

Every price, in one place.
