Business telecoms for trades and construction.Built for the field.
Builders, plumbers, electricians, contractors — telecoms for businesses where the team is on the road, the office is small, but every missed call could be a £5,000 job lost.
What we hear from trades and construction every week.
Industry-specific pains we've heard a hundred times. If any feel familiar, the fix is straightforward.
"We're on a roof, the phone rings, lost lead."
Field tradesmen can't answer mid-job. AI receptionist takes the booking enquiry properly without you climbing down.
"Office voicemail box is full of dead-end messages."
Generic 'leave a message' loses leads. AI captures details, qualifies urgency, sends to your mobile in seconds.
"Quotes go out by paper, lost in the van."
Cloud phone system + CRM integration means quotes go out by SMS or email, signed digitally, tracked properly.
"Multi-trade firms have message confusion."
Plumbing call goes to roofer, plasterer takes electrical job. Proper routing and skills-based queues fix it.
"Yard/storage CCTV is critical."
Tools, materials, vans on yard overnight. Proper Hikvision setup with mobile alerts means peace of mind.
"Job-site WiFi is needed for tablets."
Modern site management uses tablets for sign-offs, schedules, drawings. Mobile WiFi solutions keep teams productive on-site.

Frequently asked questions
Why telecoms specifically for restaurants and takeaways?
Restaurants and takeaways need telecoms that survive Friday night rush: full booking lines, card machines under pressure, customers expecting instant WiFi, and AI that can handle calls when every server is in the weeds.
What services do you typically install for restaurants and takeaways?
The most common bundle includes the services in our package recommendations on this page. We build the right setup based on your specific operation.
How long does installation take?
Most restaurants and takeaways installs go live within 7-14 days. Larger multi-site setups can take 21-45 days. We give honest timelines during quoting.
Do you cover the whole UK?
Yes — we install nationwide. The West Midlands is our home turf so we have engineers on the road there daily, but we have restaurants and takeaways customers from Glasgow to Cornwall.
Can you integrate with our existing booking / EPOS / industry software?
Most likely yes. We support the major UK booking and EPOS platforms common to restaurants and takeaways. Tell us what you use and we'll confirm before quoting.
