Quotes that start with real detail
Interior or exterior, how many rooms, paper or paint. Captiva captures the scope so your quote call-back sounds prepared and lands better.
Captiva for Painters & Decorators · Ireland & Northern Ireland
Up a ladder with a wet edge? Every enquiry still lands.
You can’t break off cutting-in to chase a ringtone. Captiva answers your missed calls, captures the rooms and the finish the customer wants, and notifies you in the Captiva app, so quoting starts the same evening.

Sound familiar?
- Decorating enquiries are quote-shopping calls. Homeowners ring three painters and book the one who responds.
- Sprayers, dust sheets and ladders mean the phone lives in your pocket on silent.
- Exterior season is short. Every missed enquiry in the good weather is work lost to the calendar.
How Captiva works for painters & decorators
The whole season captured

Professional first impression
A polite receptionist in your business name signals a professional outfit. Exactly the impression a customer wants before letting a decorator into their home.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
The things trades ask us before getting started.
Still have a question? Get in touch and we'll be glad to help.
No. Your calls are answered in a warm, natural Northern Irish or Irish voice. You pick who answers from Jimmy, Emily, Rory and Robyn, and you can hear each of them for yourself. We answer in your business name and handle the call like a professional receptionist would.
The moment you can’t pick up, we answer, have a natural conversation to capture the job details, and send you everything you need to know straight away, so you can ring back the ones that matter when you’re off the tools.
Yes. You keep your number and simply forward unanswered calls to us. No new SIM, no new hardware. We work alongside the phone you already use.
Most trades are up and running within minutes. Tell us your business details when you start your free trial and we’ll have your AI receptionist live and answering missed calls in no time.
We’re built for trade enquiries: booking jobs, taking details and answering common questions. If a call falls outside what we can handle, we still capture the caller’s number and what they were after, so you can follow up yourself.
Yes. On our higher tiers you can fully customise how we greet callers and the questions we ask, so we represent your business exactly the way you want.
Yes, and by design. Calls are never audio-recorded: we keep a written transcript so you can see exactly what was said. Your customers’ details are stored securely on servers in the EU, only ever used to get the enquiry to you, never used for advertising and never sold, and you can ask us to delete them at any time. Read exactly how we handle call data in our privacy policy.
