Plumbing

AI operations assistant for plumbing.

Water in the floor does not wait for the shop to unlock. The person on the phone wants a voice that can tell a slab leak from a drip they can live with until daylight. Anna takes that plumbing line under your name — voice and text, same number — as a Kalispell-based done-for-you install.

Plumbing calls carry a different kind of clock than a tune-up. A burst line, a dead water heater, a sewer backup — those callers are already looking at damage. They will not leave a two-minute voicemail and wait. They will call the next plumber who picks up. Alpine Autopilot builds Anna for that shop line so the first ring is a live conversation on your brand, not a recording that starts with “press one.”

Intake is where we write the split you already use at the counter: leak versus no-water versus a scheduled visit, what counts as emergency, which zip codes you run, and when a human has to take the call. She books against the live calendar. She does not invent an open slot or send a plumber. Dispatch stays with the shop.

Follow-up is the same employee. Estimate windows that did not book on the first call can get a consent-based text from the number they already dialed. We do not manufacture opt-in. If the consent file is not there, that contact does not get outbound. That is the same prior-express-written-consent gate as every other Alpine install.

The same employee across HVAC, plumbing, and roofing is written up as AI operations assistant for home services. An AI answering service for contractors is this shop-line install: she answers as the business, books the live calendar, and texts from the same number. Consent-first. The operator stays after go-live.

Water-damage urgency

When a caller says water is moving, the job is already a race. Anna’s work is not to diagnose the pipe. It is to keep the caller on your name long enough to collect the address, the source if they know it, whether the water is shut off, and whether this is a night emergency or a first-light visit. Those questions come from your intake, not from a generic script we reuse on HVAC. She can book the next real window. She will not promise a crew you do not have. If your rule is to transfer after a certain hour, she transfers. Water-damage urgency is why shops stay on the phone while a truck is already on a job — and why overflow on that line is not optional.

After-hours leaks

Leaks do not respect closing time. Anna answers after hours so you never leave that line on voicemail. She sorts a leak that cannot wait from a drip that can, using the rules you approve. The homeowner hears your shop, not a rented pool. If the call drops, she texts from the same number. Voice and SMS are one brain. We do not sell text later. After-hours is also where a DIY login fails: the owner becomes the prompt engineer at midnight. Alpine runs burn-in before go-live and stays on the account. Month-to-month after she takes the line. The published setup and monthly on pricing are the same numbers we quote every plumbing shop.

Estimate follow-up

Not every plumbing call is a flood. Repipe quotes, water-heater replacements, and remodel rough-ins still need a person who can put an estimate on the calendar and follow up without the owner hunting a sticky note. Anna books estimate windows against the calendar you actually have. Consent-based follow-up — a call back or a text from the same number — runs only when prior express written consent is on file. We do not invent a close rate for those estimates. We do not publish a case study. The product is the follow-up you already meant to do, done under your brand, with the opt-out path built in.

Qualification before a plumber

Service area, urgency, and leak versus no-water versus a scheduled visit. The board gets a qualified call, not a voicemail to decode from a crawlspace.

Same number for the text-back

Missed calls get a text from the shop number, same context. Voice and SMS are sold together. Text is not an add-on.

Does not

No cold AI dialing

Outbound voice and text run only with documented prior express written consent. Alpine does not buy lists or scrape numbers to call.

Does not

No invented dispatch

She does not assign trucks or invent a plumber’s ETA. Dispatch stays with the shop. Humans still run the work.

FAQ

Plumbing line, asked plainly

Straight answers. No theater.

Is Anna an AI operations assistant for plumbing shops?

Yes. After-hours AI operations assistant for plumbing so you never miss a call. She answers the shop line, sorts a leak or no-water from a morning callback using rules you approve, and keeps the call on your name. Done-for-you, not a DIY chatbot.

Does she book plumbing appointments on a live calendar?

Yes. She books against the live calendar you give us at install. Voice and SMS on the same number, same brain. She does not invent open slots. Dispatch and tech assignment stay with the shop.

Will she cold-call or dispatch plumbers?

No. Alpine does not do cold AI calling. Outbound runs only with documented prior express written consent. She does not invent dispatch or assign trucks. Humans still run the work.

Do you install for Montana plumbing shops?

Yes. Alpine Autopilot is based in Kalispell. Kalispell, Bozeman, Missoula, Helena, and Billings are Montana service-area pages. Denver and Salt Lake City plumbing pages remain on the locations hub. Those are service areas, not a local headquarters or a published client roster.

What does a plumbing install cost?

Setup is $7,500. The monthly is $1,297 from go-live, including 750 call minutes and 1,000 texts. Plumbing shops use that same published rate. Month-to-month after go-live. Numbers live on the pricing page.
