Lovely. Roughly how big, and do you have plans drawn up yet?
About four metres by five. No plans yet.
Thanks. What's your name, the address, and when would suit for Mark to come and look?

The problem

Big jobs start with a phone call you missed. By the time you ring back, they've booked three other quotes.

The details you'd ask anyway

Size, plans, timings and access, all in the summary, so your first call back is about the job, not taking notes.

Automatic quote chasing Switching on in pilot

Big quotes go quiet. Hello Anytime sends a polite nudge at 3 and 7 days in your business name and stops when they reply.

Stage payments without awkward calls Switching on in pilot

Add the amount once and Hello Anytime sends friendly reminders at 7 and 14 days with how to pay.

What Hello Anytime asks your callers

The questions you'd ask, every time.

You can change these in the app. Hello Anytime asks them naturally and never makes up an answer. Other languages are being tested in the pilot.

  • What's the job, and roughly how big
  • Plans, planning permission or building control?
  • Is anything leaking or unsafe now?
  • Address and best time for a visit
  • How they heard about you
After the call

Get paid, and get the next job.

One tap on any job sends the right text in your business name. Replies come straight to you, and anyone can reply STOP. "On my way" and "ready" texts are live; scheduled reminders and quote chasing are switching on during the pilot.

Questions from building and roofing businesses

Straight answers.

More in the main FAQ, or ask the chat.

Can it tell storm damage from a quote enquiry?

Yes. Active leaks and anything unsafe are flagged urgent with safety advice. Quote requests are sorted as normal enquiries.

Will it promise a start date?

Never. It only says when you'll call back, and you agree dates yourself.

I have a team. Can they all see the jobs?

Yes, on Hello Anytime Pro up to 5 people share the diary and you can give each job to someone.

Do I keep my number?

Yes. Customers keep ringing your usual number. You forward only the calls you miss to a Hello Anytime number we give you, which your customers never need to know.

When does Hello Anytime answer?

Your phone rings first. If you don't pick up (usually after 15 to 30 seconds; the divert code lets you choose), the call goes to Hello Anytime. You can also send every call straight to Hello Anytime, for example at night, and switch it back with a short code.

What about a landline?

Mobiles use one short code. Landlines divert differently depending on your provider, and some (like BT) may charge for it. We'll help you set it up.
