Customers book the quote visit themselves, and the repaint goes out as three levels of prep they choose from.
Online booking
Share your link and they take a measure-up slot with the address and how many rooms attached, so you know what you are walking into.
Learn moreSmart scheduling
A job that runs all week sits on the timeline as one block, so nobody drops a ceiling touch-up into the middle of your second coat.
Learn moreEvery repaint starts with somebody standing in the room, so the only thing your page sells outright is the visit: its own price, its own length, and the address and the room count attached before the ladders come off the rack.
Sent, opened, signed, on one list with the date beside each. So Friday's follow-up goes to the customer who read it twice on Tuesday, rather than to the eight who never opened it at all.
Built for your trade
The measure-up is its own service at its own price and length, so it takes a real gap in your week instead of a phone call at seven at night.
The customer picks how many rooms they are doing and the price moves with it, and anything past a couple goes out as a quote.
Five days of diary held as one job, quoted with the wash, the scraping and the two coats itemised so the prep is not a surprise.
A quote visit first, then options for a clean and reseal or a full membrane, because nobody prices a roof from the footpath.
The small stuff carries a set price rather than a quote, so a water-stained ceiling books itself and stays a half-day.
Oiling and staining booked as their own service with the length you actually need, so it is not squeezed onto the end of a Friday.
Hanging and stripping priced as separate lines on the quote, because taking the old paper off is the half nobody budgets for.
A same-week repaint the agent books off your page, with the job and what you used kept on that property for the next turnover.
A manager with a book of buildings sits on one customer record, every block and its colour history kept separate from the others.
Overnight and weekend work booked around trading hours, quoted with the coats and the make-good listed line by line.
Every painter has their own services, so the work that needs a licence only ever lands on the hand that holds one.
Put all three on the one quote with your recommendation marked, and let them choose how much prep they are paying for.
Each option itemised down to the wash, the filling, the undercoat and the number of coats, so the jump from a freshen-up to a strip-back is a number they can see.
On their phone, the night of the measure-up, instead of ringing back in a fortnight to ask what the middle one included again.
It becomes a job in the diary against that address, priced at the option they chose and as long as you said it would take.
Put a use-by date on the price, so the twenty litres you costed in spring cannot be held to that number after the tin goes up.
When your page has no times left, the customer asks for one instead of ringing the next painter on the list.
The rooms they want done and the weeks that suit them land in your inbox, in the same thread as everything else that customer has said to you.
One tap puts it in the diary and emails them a confirmation. Decline is one tap too, and they are told without you writing the message.
Nothing stops you dropping it into a week you know you will have. The request is a way in, not a rule about your calendar.
Photos of the hallway attached. Happy to wait for a week that suits you — how far ahead are you booking at the moment?
Draw the suburbs you cover on a map, split them between your painters, and work you would knock back never lands on your week.
Claim suburbs off actual boundary lines, or sweep everything within a distance of a point in one go. An address is matched to the suburb it truly falls inside.
Hold as many named suburbs as you work, each with its own colour and its own painters, and a job is only ever offered to someone who covers that patch.
Keep the one-room jobs close to home and let the full exteriors run wider, by leaving a service out of the suburbs you would not tow the trailer to.
The shade, the sheen and the product that went on those walls, kept against the property rather than in your head — and against each property separately, so a manager with a book of buildings is one customer and not nine. When they ring three years later about matching the hallway, you are reading it back rather than guessing at it.
Grab the job and drop it where the weather works. Nothing commits until you let go, and it costs nothing to do it.
Move a job to another day or another painter and the week redraws around it. This is not the Pro bit.
Switch the reschedule notice on and they get the new date by email. Off by default, because not every move is worth a message.
A day that is gone is gone, on your page and in the diary, so a quote visit never lands in the middle of a second coat.
Mark it off when the transfer clears, or take the card on the last day and let the receipt send itself.
Record what you were paid and when, against the job, on the Free plan. Most repaints are settled by transfer and never needed a card reader.
Charge the job in full, tap the card on site, or split a whole-house repaint into money at the start and the balance at handover.
When the payment goes through the customer is emailed a receipt, so the strata manager has their paperwork without you chasing it.
The money is paid out to your own Stripe account, not held somewhere in Bookables.

One app for the whole job
Yes. The measure-up is its own service on your booking page at its own price and length, and they take a slot you are genuinely free for with the address already on it.
Yes. Itemise the wash, the filling, the undercoat and the coats, then put the freshen-up and the full strip-back side by side on the one quote with your pick marked. They sign it on their phone.
Give the service its real length. A five-day exterior holds five days of your diary as one job rather than a Monday morning, so nothing else gets sold over the top of it.
Open the week, drag the outside jobs to days that still work and pull an interior forward into the gap. Turn the reschedule notice on if you want the customer emailed the new date.
Yes. One customer record holds any number of addresses, each with its own notes and job history, so the colour you used on block C is on block C and not in your head.
Record cash or a bank transfer against the job on the Free plan, which is how most repaints are still settled. Card payments come with Pro, paid out to your own Stripe account.
