Hand the admin to us. Stay on the tools.
A UK-based assistant who works inside your CMA account.
We answer your calls, chase your quotes, book your jobs and follow up unpaid invoices. Everything happens in your CMA account, so when you check the dashboard at the end of the day, it is already up to date.
- UK-based assistants
- Works inside your CMA
- Scopeable to your week
For plumbers, electricians, builders, roofers, decorators and any solo trade that is losing evenings to paperwork.
What your assistant covers
Pick a scope. We tailor it to your week and your trade.
Call answering
Every quote-able call answered in your business name during the hours you choose. Voicemails turned into client records, not lost messages.
Quote follow-up
Sent a quote three days ago? Your assistant nudges the customer politely, logs the reply on the quote, and flags anyone going cold.
Diary and bookings
New jobs slotted into your CMA calendar around the work you already have on. No double-booking, no awkward callbacks.
Invoice chasing
Friendly reminders for invoices that drift past their due date. Tracked against the customer record so you can see who pays slowly.
Lead qualification
Filter the Checkatrade, MyBuilder and Trustatrader enquiries that are not a fit before they reach you. Only the real jobs land in your inbox.
Reviews and listings
Asking happy customers for reviews, keeping your Google Business and trade-platform profiles current, replying to public reviews on your behalf.
Why this is not just another answering service
Most virtual assistants take a message and email it to you. You still do the work.
Inside your CMA
Your assistant logs into your CMA account. Calls become client records, quotes get drafted in your CMA, invoices get chased through your CMA. One dashboard, no parallel inbox.
British, no call-centre vibe
UK-based assistants who answer in your business name and write in British English. Customers cannot tell the difference between us and your own office.
Scoped to your week
Pick the hours and the tasks. Some traders want call answering only. Some want the full admin lift. Pay for the scope you actually use.

Questions traders ask
How much does it cost?
Scope-dependent, so we quote each business individually. UK virtual assistants typically run £25 to £40 an hour and dedicated trade-focused retainers tend to land in the £400 to £900 a month range. Tell us your call volume and the tasks you want covered and we will price it honestly.
Do I need a CMA subscription?
Yes. The whole point is that the assistant works inside your CMA, so the work shows up in your dashboard rather than in a separate inbox. If you are on the 14-day trial that is fine - we can start the scoping call while you are still trialling.
Will my customers know they are not speaking to me?
Only if you tell them. We answer in your business name, use British English, and follow the script you set on the scoping call. To the customer it sounds like your office.
What if I only need help one week a month?
That is fine. Scopes can be ongoing or seasonal - some traders use us heavily in winter when call volume spikes and pause in summer. Pricing tracks the scope.
Can you handle Gas Safe or NICEIC paperwork?
Yes, for the registration and filing side. We do not sign off the work itself - that stays with you - but we handle the paperwork so it does not pile up.
How do I stop the service if it is not working?
Give us a month's notice and we hand everything back. Your CMA account stays yours, every client record stays in place, and the divert number comes off.
Ready to get evenings back?
Tell us about your week and we will come back with a scope and a quote within two working days.
