A familiar moment

The hallway mirror call arrives while the glass is in your hands

You are positioning a mirror with a colleague when another customer rings about a large piece for a stairwell wall. Ziverly can gather the room, approximate size, framed or unframed preference, wall information the caller already knows, delivery access and timing. It does not select fixings, assess the supporting surface or tell anyone to move damaged glass.

The useful handover

Enough context to respond properly.

The aim is to welcome the caller, gather the details you decide matter and keep the same enquiry easy to follow until the work is resolved.

  • Who is calling and how to reach them.
  • What they need help with and where.
  • What should happen next, without inventing a response time.

Where the pressure tends to gather

Make space for the work without leaving the caller in the dark.

Think about the calls that interrupt you most often. Ziverly can follow the questions and boundaries you choose, then leave the details ready for your judgement.

Size is only part of the installation

Weight, backing, wall construction, edge finish, location and the route into the property can all change the work.

Damaged glass needs careful boundaries

A caller may want immediate instructions when the safest next step depends on conditions you cannot inspect remotely.

Handling glass and answering calls do not mix

Lifting, positioning and protecting finished surfaces require steady attention from everyone involved.

What a better handover can change

Less interruption now, a clearer thread afterwards.

A clearer picture of the request

See whether the customer needs a new installation, repair discussion or safe removal assessment before you respond.

Access is considered early

Keep stairs, doorways, parking and room location with the enquiry so difficult delivery routes are not discovered late.

Your approved update follows the caller

Record a measurement visit, design question or price for that person and let Ziverly use it if they ring again.

When someone calls about mirror installation and repair, your receptionist should sound like a respectful extension of your business, with honest expectations and no invented promises.

Before, during and after the call

From first ring to finished follow-up.

Ziverly can do more than take a message. You stay in control of when it answers, how you hear about each call and what context is available if the customer rings again.

  1. You decide which calls reach Ziverly.

    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.

  2. Your call details meet you where you are.

    Choose email or SMS alerts where enabled, then open Ziverly to review the summary, transcript, recording where available, status and priority.

    See the room, approximate dimensions, framed or unframed preference, reported damage and access route before returning the call.

  3. The next conversation starts further forwards.

    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 measurement visit, finish choice or price so Ziverly can give that caller the latest context without choosing a fixing method.

  4. Open calls do not have to rely on memory.

    Choose a daily or weekly email summary of calls still waiting for attention, at the time that best fits your working day.

  5. You can check in by phone, too.

    With Owner Voice Access enabled, call your own Ziverly number, verify your PIN and manage the calls you are allowed to see.

    After PIN verification, hear which mirror enquiries await measurements, product choices or responses and update their status or priority.

Use your own numbers

What might unanswered calls represent for your business?

If an average installation or repair is worth around £450 to your business, even one suitable enquiry can be worth understanding properly. Replace that example with your own figures below.

The result is an illustration based only on what you enter. It is not a forecast, a promise that Ziverly will recover the work or a reason to accept an unsuitable job.

Enquiries represented by your figures 0 Monthly work value represented £0

This simple multiplication does not account for timing, capacity, costs, cancellations, repeat work or whether another response would have changed the outcome.

Useful boundaries for call handling

Let Ziverly gather details without overstepping your expertise.

Replacement windows and external doors may be notifiable; FENSA, CERTASS or another authorised self-certification scheme can certify eligible work in England and Wales.

You remain responsible for the advice you give, the work you accept and the safety, eligibility and professional checks your business requires.

A few practical questions

What would you want to know before starting?

Use these answers to decide where Ziverly could help and where the conversation should always return to you.

Can Ziverly choose the correct fixings?

No. It can note what the caller says about the wall, but the fixing method follows your own inspection and competent judgement.

Will it tell someone how to handle a cracked mirror?

No. Ziverly follows the safety wording you approve and does not encourage a caller to move, dismantle or touch damaged glass.

Can it quote from a width and height?

No. It can record approximate measurements, while you decide what further details and checks are needed before pricing.

Try the smallest useful version

Begin with the calls that interrupt your working day most often.

Choose what Ziverly should know, what it should never promise and which details make a follow-up genuinely useful. Creating an account is free, so you can look around before deciding when you want Ziverly to handle a call.

No monthly or annual plan is required and there is no fixed-term commitment. Add pay-as-you-go credit only when you are ready to use it.
