The number that matters

This is what an unanswered phone is actually costing you.

£24,000/year

The average UK sole trader loses this much in direct revenue every year to calls that simply never get answered.

£42,000/year

Factor in the reviews you never get and the word-of-mouth referrals that never happen, and that figure climbs further still.

Based on industry-wide data on missed-call response and lead conversion across UK trade businesses, 2026.

The cost of a missed call

They don't leave a voicemail.
They call the next name on Google.

Every tradesperson has lost a job to a call they couldn't take because they were up a ladder, elbow-deep in a job, or driving. TBS closes that gap.

On site

You can't hold a phone and a chisel at the same time. Every ring you miss is a job someone else picks up.

After hours

Emergencies don't wait for 9am. Burst pipes and no heating happen at 11pm — and the first business to answer wins the job.

No admin time

Chasing callbacks between jobs eats the evening you should be spending off the clock, not on hold with a supplier.

How it works

Five steps. One phone call. Zero missed jobs.

You never touch the phone and the job still gets booked. Here's exactly what happens between a customer dialling your number and it landing in your diary — start to finish, in about a minute.

Step 100:00

Answers as you

The call is answered instantly, using your business name and your usual turnaround times — the customer has no idea it isn't you personally picking up.

Custom to your business
Step 200:14

Captures the job

It asks what the issue is, where the property is, and how urgent it is — using questions built specifically for your trade, not a generic call-centre script.

Trade-specific flow
Step 300:31

Flags emergencies instantly

Phrases like burst pipe, no heating, exposed wiring or gas smell are picked up automatically, and the caller is redirected straight to a real person — no waiting on a normal booking slot.

Emergency detection
Step 400:52

Takes over the booking

It connects directly into your live calendar, checks what's actually free, and books the job in there and then — a confirmed appointment, not just a message for you to chase up later.

Live calendar integration
Step 501:10

Confirms both sides

The customer gets a text confirming their appointment. You get a text with the job details — address, issue, and time — before you've even noticed your phone rang.

Instant confirmation
Built per trade

Not one script. A different flow for every trade.

A plumbing emergency call is nothing like a routine rewire quote. TBS runs a separate, tailored flow for each.

Builders

Captures scope, property type, and rough timeline so quote requests arrive ready to price — not a one-line voicemail.

Trigger: "structural damage" / "ceiling collapse" → redirected to a real person

Electricians

Separates routine quote requests from genuine hazards, so a socket install doesn't queue behind a real emergency — or vice versa.

Trigger: "exposed wiring" / "burning smell" → redirected to a real person

Plumbers

Identifies flooding and no-heating calls immediately and gets the caller through to a real person straight away, not the standard booking flow.

Trigger: "burst pipe" / "flooding" → redirected to a real person
Built to be trusted

A missed emergency costs you a customer. So reliability isn't optional.

01

A real person, one message away

Distressed caller or low-confidence answer? It escalates straight to a real person immediately — built into the flow itself.

02

Every call recorded and transcribed

Full transcript and recording on every call, so you can see exactly what was said and agreed.

03

Watched closely from day one

Every transcript reviewed daily for your first two weeks live, so anything off gets fixed the same day — not queued.

Client reviews

What our clients say.

Real feedback from tradespeople using TBS to stop missing jobs.

★★★★★

"One of the best decisions I've made for my business. I used to finish a job, look at my phone and see loads of missed calls, knowing I'd probably lost work. TBS completely solved that problem. Their system handles customer enquiries, books jobs into my calendar automatically and keeps everything organised without me having to stop working. It's allowed me to spend more time on the tools instead of chasing phone calls, and we've definitely seen more work coming in because of it."

★★★★★

"Since using TBS, our customer service has improved massively. Every enquiry gets a quick response and customers can arrange appointments without waiting for me to finish a job. Everything links into my calendar, making the whole process effortless. It's saved me a huge amount of time and helped us fit in more jobs each week. I'd recommend them to any tradesperson."

Verified TBS Client
★★★★★

"If you're in the trades, you know you can't answer the phone every five minutes. TBS has been a game changer for us. Customers can get booked in without us lifting a finger, everything goes straight into the diary and we can crack on with the job in front of us. It's helped us stay organised and stopped us missing out on loads of work. Brilliant service."
