Your Gatineau garage's phone rings in two languages

Gatineau has been one city since January 1, 2002, when Hull, Aylmer, Gatineau, Buckingham and Masson-Angers merged. A driver in any of those sectors calls the garage that answers. When your team is under a car, that garage is somebody else's.

English callers phone Quebec-side garages too. On Garage Lebreton Krown's line in Aylmer, 93 of the 584 calls between September 1 and October 22, 2026 (16%) ended with the English Agent.

Each call runs in one language. The Agent greets in French, and a caller who presses 2 gets the English Agent for the rest of the call. Texts after the call also go out in one language. The details are on our bilingual answering service page.

Quebec requires winter tires from December 1 to March 15. Every garage in Gatineau works toward the same date, so the changeover calls bunch up in the weeks before it, when your team has the fewest free hands.

What Gatineau garage owners ask before they sign

Can an AI receptionist answer my garage's calls in French and English?

Yes, with one language per call. The Agent greets the caller in French. A caller who wants English presses 2, and the English Agent takes the rest of the call. Texts after the call go out in one language too. On Garage Lebreton Krown's line, 93 of 584 calls from September 1 to October 22, 2026 ended with the English Agent. For the full picture, see our bilingual answering service page.

Does it matter whether my garage is in Hull, Aylmer, Buckingham or Masson-Angers?

No. The Agent answers your shop's phone line, so the sector makes no difference. It works from your own services, hours and calendar. Garage Lebreton Krown's line is in Aylmer.

What happens during the winter-tire rush, when I can't take more jobs?

You decide what the Agent books. During a rush you can limit it to certain jobs and have it take a message for the rest. Tell us and we change the rules for you.

What if a caller wants a person?

You set the rule. The Agent can transfer the call to your phone, or take a full message so you can call back.

How much does it cost?

You pay for setup once, then a monthly fee for each shop location. You sign no contract, and a 30-day money-back guarantee covers your first month. The Pricing page lists the fees.

What is the 7-day Call-Leak Check?

It is a free 7-day test. Our Agent counts the calls your shop misses, and setup takes 5 to 10 minutes. Read how the 7-day Call-Leak Check works.

Do you work with garages outside Gatineau?

Yes, in Ottawa and across Quebec and Ontario. For shops on the Ottawa side, see our AI receptionist for auto repair shops in Ottawa page.

Garages it suits, and ones it doesn't

It fits independent garages and tire shops in Gatineau where the team is in the bays when the phone rings and the work books by appointment, or could. It also fits a shop whose callers come in both languages and has nobody to answer in one of them.

Maybe someone at your desk already picks up every call in both languages, from opening to closing and after hours too. Then you may not need us, and we'll tell you that on the demo call.
