For General builders
Your next call might be about a cracked wall, a new opening, a full refurbishment or several trades under one project. You cannot explore every brief properly while carrying materials or coordinating a site. Ziverly can welcome the caller, establish what kind of work they have in mind and give you a clearer place to start.

A familiar moment
While you are checking a delivery, one homeowner calls about internal alterations, another landlord has a damaged ceiling and a third family is planning a larger refurbishment. Ziverly can capture the property, work described, current stage, access, timing and any immediate concern for each caller without accepting the work, arranging a visit or treating an early description as a quotation brief.
Where Ziverly can help
Repairs, structural alterations, refurbishments and multi-trade projects need different questions before you can judge fit.
Property type, location, access, drawings and timing can determine whether an enquiry is worth a detailed conversation.
Deliveries, subcontractors and customers already on site cannot always pause when a new lead rings.
What a better handover can change
See whether the enquiry concerns a repair, alteration, extension or broader refurbishment before deciding how to respond.
Review the property, project stage, access, hoped-for timing and available plans in a concise summary, transcript or recording where available.
Use priorities, statuses and daily or weekly reminders so good enquiries remain visible while current jobs move forward.
Before, during and after the call
Use the call-diversion options supported by your mobile or landline service, such as no reply, unreachable, busy or rejected. Turn them off again whenever you want to answer normally, or use cover for evenings, weekends, holidays and unexpected time away.
Choose email or SMS alerts where enabled, then open Ziverly to review the summary, transcript, recording where available, status and priority.
See the property, type of building work, current project stage, available plans, access and hoped-for timing before choosing your response.
Add an AI-facing note when you want Ziverly to have more context if the same known caller rings again. Separate private notes stay private.
Add an approved visit window, budget discussion, information request or capacity update for that caller, so Ziverly can reflect the latest position.
Choose a daily or weekly email summary of calls still waiting for attention, at the time that best fits your working day.
With Owner Voice Access enabled, call your own Ziverly number, verify your PIN and manage the calls you are allowed to see.
Call in securely to hear which building enquiries are open, review the priority ones and update a status after a site meeting or decision.
Use your own numbers
What might those enquiries represent for your business? Start with figures from your own recent calls.
The result is an illustration, not a forecast or a promise that Ziverly will recover the work.
You keep the judgement
Building Regulations and, for some projects, planning permission apply; requirements and self-certification arrangements differ across the UK nations.
You remain responsible for the advice you give, the work you accept and the safety, eligibility and professional checks your business requires.
No. It can gather the brief and explain your approved next-step wording, while you decide suitability and capacity.
It can record requested times, but a visit is not agreed until you or your team confirms it.
No. Ziverly will not invent a price or treat an introductory call as a substitute for your inspection and scope.
