Frequently Asked Questions

What is meant by a work/life balance?
Sometimes it seems almost impossible to strike the right balance between work and all of the other things in life, such as hobbies, relaxation and other responsibilities. In fact, many of us feel like we spend so many hours at work that there's just no time left for anything else. Work/life balance is a very modern problem - and Call the Butler is a very unique solution!

What type of jobs can Call The Butler undertake?
What would you like us to undertake for you? We can help you manage almost any aspect of your day-to-day life, from the ridiculous to the sublime. Try us and find out!

What is a Lifestyle Manager?
Think of your lifestyle manager as modern-day butler: they're there to help you organise, manage and arrange all aspects of your life. A little bit like a personal assistant, but for your whole life, not just your work!

Why do I need Call The Butler's services?
If you've ever felt that there just aren't enough hours in the day for all of things you have to accomplish, Call the Butler could be the ideal solution for you. Your time is precious: whether you're a busy professional, a stressed-out parent or even a celebrity, your time is precious to you, and we know you'd much rather spend it the way YOU want, than frittering it away on time-drains and all of those niggling little tasks that just eat up your day. When you use Call the Butler, you can take charge of your life again, and spend your time the way you want to, while we take care of the rest.

What are the most common types of services you provide?
We can provide assistance with almost everything; we can iron your clothes, wash your car and walk your dog, or if you'd prefer, we can even plan your next big event and arrange the catering for it.

Can your services save me time?
Yes! Imagine not having to do your weekly shop, take your car to be serviced, or pick up your clothes from the dry-cleaners. Better still; imagine not having to shop around for a home decorator, holiday or other personal or professional service. We save our clients time by doing all of the things they just don't have time to fit in. By working closely with a carefully-selected network of suppliers, we can meet almost every request that we get - as long as it's legal and ethical, of course!

How do you source, recruit and retain your suppliers?
At Call the Butler, we never stop sourcing new suppliers. Some are recommended to us by existing clients, and some we find ourselves - all, however, are carefully evaluated to ensure that that they can provide the very best level of service to our clients. When we evaluate a new supplier, we look at reputation, guarantees, warranties and price - and all of these are continually appraised on an on-going basis.

Will the products and services provided by you cost more?
Absolutely not. Call the Butler guarantees that all the products and services we provide will be below or at the market rate.

Are there any requests or services that you don't cover?
No. We will always do our utmost to provide any service our clients ask of us - as long as it's legal and ethical. Try us and see!

Will my personal details remain confidential?
Yes. At Call the Butler, privacy and confidentiality are guaranteed.
