An after-hours answering service answers calls that arrive outside business hours so they do not go to voicemail. Chime Labs covers nights, weekends and Australian public holidays with an AI receptionist that answers in your business name, captures the job details, books the work into your calendar or job management system, and live transfers genuine emergencies to the person on call. After-hours cover is included on every paid plan, from $99 AUD per month + GST, with no surcharge.
Hot water fails on a Sunday. A pipe bursts at 2am. Those callers are ready to book immediately, and they ring down the list until somebody answers.
Voicemail is where that job stops being yours.
Nights, weekends and public holidays, in your business name and your tone.
Your rules decide what is an emergency and what can wait until morning.
Genuine urgent work is live transferred to whoever is on call, with the notes attached.
Non-urgent jobs are booked into tomorrow rather than left as a message to chase.
Every overnight call arrives as a transcript, a plain English summary and an outcome, so the first thing you do is not reconstruct voicemails.
Bookings are already in the calendar with the site address, job type and notes.
