Live demoWhat is an electrician answering service?
An electrician answering service answers calls for electrical contractors when nobody can pick up. Sesla's AI answering service responds 24/7, gives basic safety guidance, escalates outages, burning smells, and sparking to your on-call electrician, and books routine work like panel upgrades and EV charger installs.
The problem with missed calls
Safety emergencies after hours
Outages and burning smells don't wait for business hours, and callers need an answer right away.
Estimates that never get booked
Panel upgrade and EV charger inquiries go cold when nobody calls back the same day.
An answering service for electricians that knows what's urgent
Safety triage
Power outage, burning smell, sparking, or exposed wires trigger immediate escalation to your on-call electrician.
Service booking
Books panel upgrades, EV chargers, lighting, and inspections on your calendar.
After hours answering service for electricians
Nights, weekends, and holidays with your rules and service area.
Electrical contractor answering service for commercial accounts
Captures site, contact, and PO details for commercial customers.
Example call (studio demo)
CallerOne of my outlets is sparking and I smell something burning.
AI receptionistFor your safety, please turn off the breaker for that room if you can do so safely, and don't use the outlet. If you see smoke or flames, call 911 first.
CallerOkay, breaker's off.
AI receptionistThank you. What's your address? I'm alerting our on-call electrician now as an emergency.
Caller88 Cedar Court.
AI receptionistGot it — 88 Cedar Court. The on-call electrician has your details and will call you shortly. Please keep the breaker off until then.
