Six panels on the phone is fourteen in the hallway. Charge per panel with the count taken while they book, sell pet mesh at the same moment, and leave with the mesh type saved against the house.
Online booking
They know their own house better than you do over the phone. Panel count is a quantity, the total moves as they set it, and pet mesh is a tick beside it.

A whole Queenslander is not a two-panel unit. Put the honest length on each service and the afternoon job is still an afternoon job.
Learn morePanel count is a quantity on the service, so the customer sets it while they book and the total moves in front of them. You get a number that came from someone looking at the windows, and they get a price without a phone call.
They choose six or sixteen and the total follows. The amount charged is calculated here, never taken from whatever the page happened to show.
Heavier mesh sits on the service as an option with its own price change, so it is decided at the kitchen table rather than in your driveway.
They take a slot off the calendar instead of a promise to ring back, and the length booked is the length that job really takes.
Mozzie season fills the diary in a fortnight and the calls do not stop when the slots do. When there is nothing left, the page says so and takes the job.
Address, how many panels, which mesh and a photo of the torn wire in one place, so you can judge it without ringing back.
Reply from the record rather than your texts. What you quoted them in November is still there when they ring in February.
A cancelled morning is a gap you fill from the same screen, and the confirmation does the telling for you.
Six screens with the wire hanging out and the sliding door one is off its rollers. Anything at all this month?
It is going to happen, so plan for it instead of wearing it. Add the extra panels on the job at the rate already agreed and move what will not fit.
Same per-panel rate, added while you are standing there, so the invoice matches the work rather than the phone call.
The last job moves to Thursday and the customer is told without you writing a message about it.
Each job carries the panel count, the mesh and the gate code, so nobody rings the office to ask what they are walking into.
An hour of work, then four years of nothing. When they ring back, the panel count, the mesh and what you charged last time are on the address, so the second job is quoted from a record instead of a memory.
Priya Nair asked for four addresses and approved two. Seeing what has been opened and what has gone quiet is the difference between a follow-up call worth making and four that are not.
Your cleaner Mark is on the way.
You cannot pull panels out of a house nobody is standing in. Tell them the window before you set off, not from the kerb.
When the frames are past saving, that is two visits and it should be two bookings on the one house, both dated, neither living in your head.
Past your coverage. Decline politely, or make an exception.
Set the areas you work and the ones you do not. A single screen out past Surry Hills should not quietly book itself into a Tuesday morning.
Four openings, three ways to price them: re-mesh the frames that are sound, new frames in pet mesh, or step the lot up to security screens.
Rescreens, new frames and door screens are separate lines, so a queried figure points straight at the panels it came from.
Re-mesh, re-frame or the lot. They read the difference between them instead of ringing two other outfits to find out.
The quote goes from the phone in the driveway, which is usually before anyone else has rung them back.
Pet mesh, midge mesh, new spline, rollers for the sliding door, a closer on the screen door. Ticking one moves the quoted total, so nothing gets re-typed on the trailer. Priced options come with Pro.
Rescreens are done and dusted in an hour, so the money should be too. Record cash and transfers by hand for nothing, or take cards on Pro.
Mark it paid when the transfer lands. That costs nothing on any plan and it is not going to start costing something.
Send a link from the driveway and the owner pays on their phone while you are winding up the extension lead.
Four addresses on one document, each with its own panels and mesh listed, so the office pays it without a phone call.
Built for your trade
Pull the panels, re-spline them at the van, back in the track before you leave. One visit, priced by the panel, no second trip.
The door that gets dragged twelve times a day. New rollers and a straightened track priced as its own service, not buried in a rescreen count.
A heavier mesh chosen at booking with the price shown, instead of a conversation in the driveway next to a shredded screen.
A different job, a different length and a different rate. Keep it as its own service so it never books into a half-hour rescreen slot.
Measure up now, fit when the frames come back from the shop. That is two visits, so it is two bookings on the one house.
Every opening in one go, counted by the owner and blocked out as the half day it really takes rather than the hour you hoped for.
One agent, four addresses, one invoice, and a tenant at each who has to be told when the van is coming.
Finer wire for the houses where standard flywire lets the lot straight through. Priced as an upgrade at booking, not a surprise on the day.
Cassette screens that need a measure, an order and a fit. Quoted per opening and scheduled as the two visits it actually is.
Eleven units, the same mesh, one body corporate paying. Book them as a run and keep every unit its own record underneath.
Add your whole team and get booking for nothing.
As you grow with us you can go Pro.
One app for the whole job
Yes. Panel count is a quantity on the service, so they set it while they book and the total moves in front of them. The amount charged is worked out on our side rather than read off the page.
Add the extra eight to the job as lines at the same per-panel rate they already agreed to. The invoice matches the work, and because the rate was published before you turned up it is a bigger number rather than an argument at the door.
You can. Mesh sits on the service as an option group and each choice carries its own price change, so the customer with the labrador picks pet mesh and sees the total move before they commit.
That is between you and your state regulator, and it depends on whether you are rescreening or fitting security screens. Bookables holds none of it and checks none of it. What it holds is the job, the panel count and the mesh that went in.
One customer, several properties. Each house keeps its own panel count, mesh type and job history, and the whole lot can go on one estimate rather than four.
Cash and bank transfer you record by hand are free on any plan and always will be. Card payments come with Pro, so you can send a link from the kerb and be paid before you pack the trailer.
