The short answer

How it works for glaziers
Emergency board-ups and double-glazing quotes on one phone line.
A glazier's calls split in two: broken glass that needs someone now, and retrofit quotes that can wait until tomorrow. FirstVoice sorts them straight away, so urgent jobs reach you and quotes get the details you need.
- For broken glass, takes the address and whether the property is secure, then alerts you straight away
- Records the insurer and claim number when it's an insurance job
- For double glazing, asks how many windows there are and the frame type
- Can text the caller a link to send photos, then books a measure-and-quote visit
- Tells anyone injured by glass to ring 111
