Chimney Sweeps FAQ

How does the receptionist handle smoke smell urgency?

It asks about fireplace or stove type, last cleaning date, and smoke or safety concern, then captures the caller's name and preferred time. If the call mentions chimney sweep or flue liner, the receptionist keeps the notes specific and follows the business's approved booking or staff-review rule.

What details are collected for last cleaning?

The receptionist collects practical details such as fireplace or stove type, last cleaning date, and smoke or safety concern. It can also include notes about creosote or fireplace insert so staff have useful context before confirming the next step. This keeps the answer clear while still guiding the caller toward a real appointment or callback.

Can it answer inspection preparation?

It answers only from the information the business provides. If the caller asks about cap repair or masonry chimney and the approved answer is missing, the receptionist books the next step or captures a callback request instead of guessing. This keeps the answer clear while still guiding the caller toward a real appointment or callback.

What details does the receptionist collect for chimney sweeps?

It asks for the caller's name, preferred time, and the details needed for a real chimney inspection. For this page, that means asking about fireplace or stove type, last cleaning date, smoke or safety concern before it books or prepares a staff note.

How does it handle urgent chimney sweeps calls?

The receptionist follows the urgent-call rules you approve. It can flag calls that mention chimney sweep, flue liner, creosote, capture the address and context, and either book the next available time or prepare the call for staff review based on your settings.

What calendar can it use for bookings?

It can place appointments on the built-in calendar. If connected calendar availability has been set up for the account, it can use those open times; otherwise it collects preferred times so staff can confirm the appointment. This keeps the answer clear while still guiding the caller toward a real appointment or callback.
