We handle everything — you just tell us about your business.

Tell Us About Your Plastering Business

Your specialisms — skimming, boarding and skimming, rendering, pebbledashing, Venetian polished plaster, coving and cornice work — your coverage area and how you want large whole-house re-plaster enquiries handled.

We Build Your Plasterer-Trained AI

We train the AI with plastering terminology — dot and dab, bonding coat, multi-finish, thistle board finish, sand and cement render — so it captures wall condition, room count, ceiling heights, and finish type from every caller.

You Focus on the Trowel, Not the Phone

While your hands are covered in plaster and you are racing to finish a skim before it goes off, answering a phone is impossible. Every enquiry captured. Whole-house re-plasters, insurance ceiling repairs, and new-build contracts queued for your review.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the chat bot handle rendering enquiries effectively?

Yes. Homeowners chatting about external rendering receive informed responses about render systems — K Rend silicone for modern properties, lime render for period buildings, monocouche for cost-effective coverage — with questions about wall area, number of elevations, current finish condition, and access requirements. The AI discusses colour options and finish textures, demonstrating specialist knowledge that builds confidence. Rendering enquiries represent high-value work at £3,000 to £15,000 per property, and the informed chat response wins these leads against competitors who simply say "call for a quote."

Does the chat bot handle builder enquiries professionally?

Yes. Builders chatting about plastering work receive trade-aware responses that understand construction terminology, programme sequencing, and the urgency of critical-path work. The AI asks about board type, finish specification, other trades waiting, and the programme deadline. Builders who experience professional, trade-literate responses through the chat bot add your company to their preferred sub-contractor list permanently.

Can the chat bot capture artex removal and ceiling work leads?

Yes. Homeowners chatting about artex removal — motivated by wanting modern, smooth ceilings — receive responses that address asbestos testing requirements, discuss removal methods versus overboarding options, and capture the number of rooms and ceiling sizes. These artex removal leads convert at high rates because the homeowner has already decided they want the work done and is simply comparing providers. The chat bot informed response about asbestos awareness demonstrates the professional care that wins trust.

Does the chat bot capture evening renovation planning leads?

Yes. Seventy-two percent of plastering enquiries need work starting within 2 weeks, and homeowners and builders plan renovation work in the evening after the working day. The chat bot captures these time-sensitive leads at 8, 9, or 10pm — providing immediate informed responses about scope and timeline while competitors sleep. The combination of urgency and evening planning makes 24/7 chat availability a decisive competitive advantage for plasterers.

Can the chat bot handle specialist plaster finish enquiries?

Yes. Homeowners researching Venetian polished plaster, Tadelakt for bathrooms, or decorative lime plaster for period properties chat with detailed questions about the process, durability, and pricing. The AI provides informed responses about specialist finishes, discusses the premium nature of the work, and captures the room details and desired effect. These specialist leads at £60 to £150 per square metre represent the highest-margin work available to skilled plasterers.

What is the benefit of an AI website chat bot for my plastering business?

Homeowners searching for plasterers often have specific questions about what they actually need — "Is my artex ceiling a skim-over or does it need removing? Can you plaster over painted walls? Do you do external rendering?" A chat bot answers immediately, converting 10-15% of visitors versus 2-3% for a contact form. Your AI captures wall condition, room count, and ceiling requirements. At £39 per month with unlimited chats, it captures homeowners comparing plasterers at 10pm — when a contact form sits unread. One full re-plaster at £1,500-£3,000 from chat pays for years of the service.

What if my plasterer business changes its prices or services?

Just drop us a message — routine business updates are free and included in your plan. If you've updated your per-room pricing, added Venetian polished plaster to your finishes, or changed your weekend working availability, we'll update your ai website chat within 24 hours at no extra charge. This covers the kind of day-to-day changes any plasterer business makes: adjusting prices, tweaking your service list, updating opening hours, or changing your service area. We want your AI to always give your customers accurate, up-to-date information about your plasterer business.

How does Speed Receptionist handle my customers' personal data?
