For gasfitters

When someone smells gas, voicemail is the wrong answer.

People ring their gasfitter first when something's wrong. Those callers need the right safety steps straight away. Everyone else needs a booking, a certificate or a straight answer about what you can and can't do.

  • A caller smells gas and gets your voicemail while you're on another job
  • Insurers, buyers and landlords ring you for certificate copies in the middle of the day
  • People want DIY advice, like "can I just swap the hob myself?"
  • Callers mix up LPG bottle deliveries with appliance faults

How FirstVoice fixes it

FirstVoice gives gas-leak callers the right safety steps first, alerts you, and turns everything else into a booking or a message.

  1. Asks about a gas smell before anything else, and tells the caller to avoid flames and switches, get outside and ring 111 or the gas emergency line
  2. Tells anyone with headaches or nausea near a gas appliance to get into fresh air and ring 111
  3. Never gives DIY instructions, and books a gasfitter instead
  4. Asks natural gas or LPG, which appliance, and whether it's a new install or a repair
  5. Takes certificate requests and passes them to you, so your day isn't broken up
