The AI receptionist for handymen
Small jobs add up, but only if you answer the phone. Nimble picks up while you're on the tools, finds out what needs doing and where, and books the job or a quote.
The calls you're missing
- Homeowners with a list of small jobs who ring the next number when you don't answer
- Property managers and landlords needing a repair booked this week
- Quote requests that come in while you're driving between jobs
Booking types Nimble sets up for you
- Job
- Quote
- Site inspection
Rename them or add your own. Urgent situations — like a property manager with a repair that can't wait — can go straight through to a person instead.
What Nimble does on every call
Books jobs, quotes and site inspections
Straight into your calendar, with the address and job details attached.

Turns away work you don't do
You set the services and areas you cover, and Nimble follows them on every call.

Evening and weekend enquiries get a helpful answer instead of voicemail.

Questions from handymen and property maintenance businesses
Can it handle lots of small, different jobs?
Yes. Nimble asks what needs doing and where, captures the details the same way every time, and books a job or a quote visit, depending on your rules.
Can I keep my existing business number?
Yes. Keep your number and forward calls to Nimble — all of them, only after hours, or only when you don't pick up. Or use a new Nimble number if you'd rather.
Which calendars does it book into?
Outlook, or Nimble's built-in calendar if you don't use it. Google Calendar is coming soon. Your receptionist checks availability before it offers a time.
Will callers know they're talking to an AI?
Your receptionist introduces itself as your AI receptionist and keeps the conversation natural. Anyone who'd rather speak to a person can be transferred or have a callback arranged, following your rules.
