Every day, Australian electricians lose thousands in jobs — not from bad work, but from phones that ring out on-site.
That caller just booked another electrician instead.
Who still can't cover after-hours fault calls or weekend emergencies.
Your highest-value emergency callouts — gone to a competitor.
You spend hours screening people who ghost the interview.
Electrical businesses miss 27% of inbound calls on average — that's A$24,300 to A$207,000 in lost revenue every year.

One platform. Six tools. Everything a full-time receptionist does — purpose-built for electrical businesses.
Answers every call with a professional electrician-specific script. Captures caller name, address, fault type, urgency, and whether the property is residential or commercial. Books directly into your calendar.
Handles urgent power fault, switchboard, and safety hazard calls after hours. Qualifies true electrical emergencies — like live wires or complete outages — from routine quote requests.
Fills your schedule based on job type and availability. Separates emergency callouts from planned installations and inspections. Sends booking confirmations to customers by SMS.
Pre-screens apprentice and electrician applicants — checks licences, trade certificates, experience level, and availability. Delivers a scored shortlist so you only interview the right candidates.
After every completed job, automatically requests a Google review from the customer. More 5-star reviews = higher Google Maps ranking = more free electrical leads in your area.
Sends 24h and 1h reminders before every booked job. Cuts no-shows and last-minute cancellations — saving wasted drive time and lost daily rate.

"I was losing emergency fault calls every weekend. ServiceHotline started catching them automatically. Within the first week, it booked two after-hours jobs I would have completely missed."
"Our apprentice hire process used to take three weeks of back-and-forth. The AI screened 14 applicants and gave us a shortlist of three. We hired within five days."
"As a solo sparky, I can't answer calls when I'm in a roof cavity. ServiceHotline handles every call professionally and texts me the details. My customers think I have a full office team."
