AI receptionist for plumbers in Karaganda
In Karaganda people write to the plumber on WhatsApp in the morning, in the evening and at weekends, while he is under someone else’s sink. The agent answers at once: it finds out what is leaking or blocked, asks for a photo, quotes the call-out price and books a free slot.
Hello! The kitchen sink hasn’t drained for two days, and the plunger doesn’t help.
Hello! Is it a flat or a private house? And could you send the address, please.

Thank you. The call-out starts at 4,000 tenge, and the plumber will price the clearing on site. I can book you today at 19:30 or tomorrow at 8:30.
Today at 19:30, please.
You’re booked for today at 19:30 with Askhat. I’ll send a reminder an hour before.
When customers write in Karaganda
In summer people in Karaganda write to plumbers about dachas, summer water lines and water heaters, in winter about pipes that could not take the frost. Messages peak early in the morning and in the evening after work.
Busiest hours: 06:00 to 09:00 and 18:00 to 21:00
After a frosty night: no water in the summer kitchen. The agent books the nearest free slot.
In autumn, a request to insulate the pipes in the yard before the cold. The agent finds a free day this week.
Water is standing in the kitchen sink. The agent checks whether it is a flat or a house and finds a plumber for the same evening.
Answers in Kazakh and Russian
The agent writes in the customer’s language: if someone starts in Kazakh, the answer comes in Kazakh. Here is the same reply in both languages.
If a customer writes in English, the agent answers in English.
Пәтердегі негізгі кранды жабыңызшы. Шебер жолға шықты, мекенжайыңыз бен суреттерді оған жібердім.
Перекройте, пожалуйста, главный кран в квартире. Мастер уже выехал, адрес и фото я ему отправила.
What the agent takes off your hands
Water off first
Words like “leaking into the flat below”, “burst” or “the pipe has split” tell the agent it is an emergency: it asks for the main valve to be closed and calls the on-call plumber that same minute. Everything else goes into the schedule without a rush.
Collects the address, photos and details
Asks what is leaking and where, since when, whether it is a flat or a private house, and asks for a photo. In a block of flats it takes the floor and flat number, in a street of houses a landmark. The plumber arrives with the right parts.
Books and reminds
Offers your plumbers’ free time, books the visit, confirms it and sends a reminder the day before. Moving or cancelling happens in the same chat, and the slot is freed for another customer at once.
The call-out price, no promises
Asked about price, it answers with the call-out charge from your list. What the job itself costs is up to the plumber once he sees the pipes, and the customer knows this before the visit.
Knows private houses
In a private house requests are about the pump, the borehole, the water heater or pipes in the yard. The agent finds out what exactly, where it is and how to get there, so the plumber wastes no time looking.
Karaganda: local context
The centre of Karaganda Region, a city that grew up on the mines of the Karaganda coal basin.
A major student city with medical, technical and classical universities.
The city is spread out, and Maikuduk or Yugo-Vostok is a fair way from the centre, so people usually look for a master or a doctor near their own district.
In summer people cool off at the Fyodorovka reservoir right in town, and at weekends they drive out to Karkaraly.
In Karaganda there are many old five-storey blocks with worn risers, and a leak there often involves two flats at once. The agent takes the floor and flat number, asks for the water to be shut off and passes the request to the plumber at once.

Frequently asked questions
Customers write in Kazakh. Will the agent reply?
Yes. The agent writes in Kazakh, Russian and English and replies in the language the customer chose. If someone starts in Russian and carries on in Kazakh, the agent follows.
How does the agent handle an emergency?
First it asks for the water to be shut off at the main valve, then takes the address, the floor or a landmark and passes the request to the on-call plumber that same minute. It gives no other repair advice.
Does the agent quote a repair price?
Only the call-out and job prices as “from” prices, if your list has them. The plumber gives the exact price on site, once he sees what has broken.
Where can we see the requests?
Wherever you keep customers now, or in the built-in Solwees CRM. The plumber opens a request and sees everything: what happened, where to go and when he is expected.
What does the agent say if the water goes off in a frost?
It asks the customer not to thaw pipes with an open flame, takes the address and a description and books the earliest slot. If something is already leaking, it first asks for the water to be shut off.
Does it work if we have locations across the region?
Yes. Each location gets its own technicians and service area. The agent asks for the customer’s address and books a visit from the nearest one.
