1Point Plumbing & Heating
Plumbing & HeatingCall Handling & Support2 W Regent Street, Glasgow G2 1RW, UK
The Challenge
Response times averaging 2 hours were causing customer frustration and lost emergency business opportunities during peak demand periods.
Our Solution
Implemented comprehensive call center outsourcing with 24/7 coverage and live chat support, reducing response time to 15 minutes.
"The transformation in our customer service has been remarkable. We're now capturing every opportunity and our customers are happier than ever."
— Operations Manager
Gas Engineer Glasgow
Challenge
Operating as a sole tradesperson with no back-office support, missing emergency calls, no marketing presence, and no systems for scaling.
Solution
1Point deployed full operations management — 24/7 dispatch, marketing, HR, compliance, accounts, and customer acquisition — letting the engineer focus solely on gas work.
"1Point took over everything — I just turn up and do the gas work. The business has grown beyond what I thought possible."

How we'd approach it
We don't yet have a published case study in every industry we work with. Rather than invent one, here's honestly what we'd set up and why, for a few industries beyond trades.
Thornbury Home Improvements
home improvement · Manchester, UKDemo project -- concept case study, not a real clientStrong local reputation (40+ Google reviews, 4.8 stars) but enquiry volume flat for two years despite steady search demand for kitchen and bathroom renovation in the area.
Sunridge Air Comfort
hvac · Austin, USADemo project -- concept case study, not a real clientRunning Google Ads for emergency AC repair with a healthy click-through rate, but the landing page was the general company homepage, not a page built for the emergency-repair search intent, and after-hours calls went to a generic voicemail with no callback commitment.
Larkhall Aesthetics
aesthetics clinic · Leeds, UKDemo project -- concept case study, not a real clientStrong Instagram following (12k) generating interest, but the clinic's own booking page required a phone call during clinic hours to actually confirm a consultation, so a lot of that interest never converted.
Bellcourt & Rae
professional services · London, UKDemo project -- concept case study, not a real clientA small accountancy practice relying entirely on word-of-mouth referrals, with no searchable presence for anyone looking for a new accountant in their area.
Brightwell Dental Care
dental · Denver, USADemo project -- concept case study, not a real clientNew patient enquiry calls were going to the same front-desk line handling in-chair check-ins, so calls during busy periods went to voicemail and most callers didn't leave one.
Rieger Systemtechnik
software · Stuttgart, GermanyDemo project -- concept case study, not a real clientA small B2B software vendor with a strong product but a website that only existed in German, while a growing share of enquiries were coming from English-speaking prospects across the EU.
Maison Verlin
beauty · Lyon, FranceDemo project -- concept case study, not a real clientA boutique skincare brand selling well in-store but with an online shop that hadn't been updated in over a year, and no way to see which products people were actually asking about on social media.
Noordwijk Home Goods
ecommerce · Rotterdam, NetherlandsDemo project -- concept case study, not a real clientAn online homeware store with decent traffic but a checkout process requiring account creation before purchase, which is a well-documented cart-abandonment driver.
