Capture Every Electrical Emergency
When you're on site or inside a consumer unit, picking up the phone is not always possible. Voco works alongside you to answer every call, capture job details, and book electrical work into your calendar so nothing slips while you focus on the job in front of you. Monthly plans from £49 or pay as you go with no monthly fee.
The Problem Electricians Face
The electrician who answers first gets the job
Customers with urgent electrical faults call two or three electricians and book whoever picks up. If your phone is busy or unanswered, that job goes to someone else.
You can't answer on site
Working in a fuse board, running cables, or on a commercial job means you can't take calls. But every missed call is a quote you never got to give.
Evenings and weekends are peak enquiry time
Most electrical faults are noticed when people are home. Those calls come in evenings and weekends, exactly when most electricians have stopped answering.

How Voco works alongside electricians
Voco is not a replacement for your customer relationships. It's a layer of cover that ensures no call goes unanswered while you're on a job. When a customer calls your number and you can't answer, Voco picks up, handles the conversation professionally, and sends you a structured transcript so you can follow up with the full picture. You stay in control of every job. Voco just makes sure they reach you.
Why electricians lose work to missed calls
Electrical faults rarely happen at convenient times. A customer with a tripped board or a sparking socket is not going to wait for a callback. They are going to call the next electrician on the list. For electrical contractors running jobs throughout the day, missed calls are not occasional. They are a constant leak in the pipeline. Voco closes that gap without pulling you away from billable work.
What Voco handles for electrical contractors
Voco covers the full range of inbound calls: domestic fault reports, quote requests for rewires and consumer unit upgrades, EICR bookings, EV charger installation enquiries, and commercial inspection scheduling. Each call is handled professionally in your business name, with the job details, urgency, address, and customer contact captured and sent to you within seconds. Emergency faults are flagged immediately. Routine jobs are queued for follow-up.
Call handling for electricians and electrical contractors UK
A dedicated call answering service for electricians gives you the coverage of a full-time receptionist without the cost or the management. Voco acts as a virtual receptionist for your electrical business, available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Whether you run a one-man operation or manage a small team, Voco scales with your call volume and only costs what your call traffic warrants on the pay-as-you-go plan.
Flexible pricing to match how electrical work actually flows
Electrical work is seasonal. New build pipelines, inspection cycles, and weather-driven fault reports mean your call volume is not the same in January as it is in October. Voco's monthly plans start at £49 with 75 calls included, suitable for contractors with steady inbound enquiries. If your volume varies, the pay-as-you-go plan has no monthly fee and you top up and pay per minute. Both include the same AI quality, transcripts, and calendar integration.
No setup, no hardware, no disruption
You keep your existing number. Calls forward to Voco when you are unavailable or on another call. You can set it to cover only out-of-hours, or run it all day. Setup takes under 10 minutes. There is no contract and a 30-day money-back guarantee. See plans from £49/month.
