AI for Plumbers That Captures Website Enquiries and Supports Booking Where Configured
Boafo Agent helps independent plumbers and plumbing firms answer website questions and capture job enquiries. It collects job type, location, urgency, preferred timing and contact details, then routes the request using configured rules. Booking is supported only through a connected Google Calendar where configured; staff retain approval and operational decisions.
Website enquiry handling, live within days. Trained on your business before launch.
What's getting in the way today
- Website job enquiries wait while your team is on site.
- Evening and weekend website requests need to be recorded for staff follow-up.
- Incomplete messages leave your team chasing location, contact details and scope.
- Static forms can miss the details needed to review a job.
- Urgent requests need clear priority and a staff-owned response process.
How a Boafo AI Employee works for a plumbing business
Train the website assistant on your approved services, published prices and service area. Boafo Agent handles website enquiries today. Telephone answering, inbound voice, outbound calling, SMS and WhatsApp are not live standard capabilities.
Collect job type, postcode, urgency and contact details. High-priority website requests can be flagged and delivered by email or a configured webhook. The assistant is not an emergency response or safety-triage service.
Collect scope, access information, parking and preferred timing as text. Photo uploads are not promised as a standard capability; staff can request supporting images through an approved separate channel.
Capture quote requests for an engineer to review and price. The agent can explain approved published fees, but it does not independently quote custom jobs or dispatch engineers.
Record enquiries outside business hours and hand them to staff. Booking is supported only through a connected Google Calendar where configured; staff retain approval and operational decisions.

Is this right for an independent plumber?
A small plumbing team can use configured website intake to collect job details while working. It does not replace emergency telephone cover, engineer judgement or dispatch.
How it scales as you take on more engineers
Update approved services, areas and routing rules as the business changes. Staff must confirm changes; automatic overnight updates or cross-channel memory are not promised.
Setup, training and go-live
Agree the approved services, questions and routing rules, then configure email, Google Sheets or webhooks. Booking is supported only through a connected Google Calendar where configured; staff retain approval and operational decisions. ServiceM8, Tradify, Commusoft and Jobber are examples of systems that require separately scoped custom API/webhook integration, subject to access and feasibility; no native integration is claimed.

Frequently asked objections
What happens when I miss calls as a plumber?
Boafo Agent handles website enquiries today. Telephone answering, inbound voice, outbound calling, SMS and WhatsApp are not live standard capabilities. A separate answering solution is needed for telephone coverage.
Can it handle a gas emergency?
No. It is not an emergency or gas-safety service. Use appropriate emergency channels; website requests can be recorded for staff review.
Will it know my prices?
It can explain approved published fees. Custom quotes, availability and engineer assignment need staff approval.
Does it integrate with my dispatch software?
Agree the approved services, questions and routing rules, then configure email, Google Sheets or webhooks. Booking is supported only through a connected Google Calendar where configured; staff retain approval and operational decisions. ServiceM8, Tradify, Commusoft and Jobber are examples of systems that require separately scoped custom API/webhook integration, subject to access and feasibility; no native integration is claimed.
Can a visitor ask for a human?
Yes. It can capture a handoff request and deliver the conversation through the configured workflow. Staff response time depends on your coverage.
