Online booking
Estimate visits people book themselves
Hardly anything gets priced sight unseen. Put the estimate visit on your page with a real duration and let homeowners take a time while you are on stilts.
Learn moreSmart scheduling
Board, tape, sand, in the right order
Every coat of mud needs to dry, and a cold basement in February makes that take longer than you planned. Give each stage its own slot and duration.

From a patch round a light switch to a whole house of walls and ceilings
Ceiling repair after an ice dam
A February staple. Books short, priced by room, photos already in the thread, and the adjuster gets a real estimate rather than a text.
Stipple ceiling removal
Priced by room with the skim coat and the make-good as their own lines, so the customer sees why it is not a single morning.
Board and finish a basement development
A run of days, not a booking. Boarding, taping and sanding each carry their own duration and their own crew on the calendar.
Level 5 skim coat before a dark colour
Sold as an option with a price difference on the service, so the upgrade is agreed in writing before the first coat of mud.
Texture matching a repair
Knockdown, orange peel or hand trowel. Each is a choice on the repair service, because matching the wrong one is a callback.
Parging and exterior stucco repair
Weather dependent and priced by area. Takes a real block on the calendar with cure time and moves as a block when the forecast turns.
Patch after the electrician
Small, quick, and a schedule wrecker when the calendar lies about it. Give it a true duration and let it book itself in.
Fire-rated board in a shared wall
Quoted as its own line where the code calls for it, rather than folded into a rate and argued about at inspection.
Poly and vapour barrier before boarding
Sequenced ahead of the board so the inspection lands between the two, and everyone on the job sees the date when it shifts.
Crown moulding and plaster detail
The profile is the entire conversation, so it becomes an option group with prices rather than a figure pulled out of the air.
What the job carries before anyone loads up.
Room count, finish level, the profile to match, where the water is and how to get in. On the job when you take it, not remembered on the drive over.

The photos, the dust question and the yes, all one thread.
Half of plastering is quoted off pictures of a stain on a ceiling. Those pictures belong on the job, not three screens deep in a phone.

The builder who is eleven rooms deep.
One customer, a long run of jobs and a payment history worth keeping, instead of eleven separate searches through last year's messages.
Refinishing a room, quoted three ways.
Someone asking what drywall work costs wants three numbers: patch and make paint-ready, a skim coat over what is there, or tear out and re-board.
Square feet, rooms, or the hour
Whichever you already quote in. Square feet for a whole basement, rooms for a refinish, hours for a patch after the electrician.
The finish level is priced, not assumed
Level 4 and Level 5 sit next to each other with the difference shown, so nobody discovers the upgrade after the paint goes on.
Accepted, and kept on the job
What they clicked accept on stays attached to the job, which is the copy that settles it when the painter has opinions.
Extras priced as options · Pro
Pro adds the choices that ride on top: Level 5 finish, knockdown or stipple texture, moisture-resistant board in the bath, haul-away. Each carries its own price difference, so the total updates.

Winter takes the week, every year.
Mud sets slowly in an unheated house, a storm doubles the drive, and the framer is late anyway. The day is survivable. The calls are not.
One drag and it is handled
The job moves on the calendar and the crew and the customer both find out without you touching the phone. Free on any plan.
The rest of the run follows
Push the boarding and the taping behind it moves too, so you do not find the hole on Thursday with a crew standing in it.
You never make the call
The notification does the uncomfortable part. You spend the storm day on the estimates instead.
Three weeks out, and that is the healthy version.
A taper with tomorrow free is usually a taper somebody let go. Put the wait on the page and still keep the homeowner who will wait it out.
The page only knows what is open
Times come off the calendar you actually run, so a week already committed to a builder is never offered to anybody else.
A full calendar still takes the lead
With nothing bookable they leave photos and an address, and that sits in the inbox instead of dying as a missed call.
Estimate first, date second
The estimate can be sent, read and accepted with no date on it. The date gets added once the run ahead finally clears.
Ceiling in the back bedroom has come down after a leak. Photos attached, is there anything before the end of the month?
Collected before the truck is loaded.
A progress draw from a builder or the balance from a homeowner. Both move faster when the invoice was written the day the work finished.
Cash and cheques cost nothing
Write down what came in and the job closes out. No plan behind it, and your money never sits with us on the way through.
Cards are what Pro buys
A link on the invoice does the collecting, so a draw is settled from a phone rather than chased three weeks later.
Stage a long job
A whole basement can be billed in pieces once the booking exists. Nothing is ever charged at the moment somebody books.

How far the truck is worth driving.
Fifty minutes of highway in January with a load of board is an hour of the day the estimate never charged for. Draw the line once.
Mark it, do not explain it
Set the area you cover and anything outside it gets a straight answer immediately, rather than a booking you cancel later in the week.
Each crew keeps its own map
Parging outside and taping inside rarely happen on the same side of the city, so the two areas do not have to match.
The jobs you would rather decline
Heritage lath, three storeys of stucco with no lift, whatever it is. Ruled out on the page instead of in a driveway.

Common questions.
Lather (Interior Systems Mechanic) is a Red Seal designated trade, recognized across most provinces and territories, and it covers the framing and installation side of interior systems. Plasterer itself is not a Red Seal trade, and contractor licensing is provincial or municipal rather than national. Check your own province and city, then put whatever you hold on the estimate template so it goes out with every quote.
Make the finish level an option on the service with its own price difference. Level 4 and Level 5 in the Gypsum Association GA-214 levels of finish are different amounts of labour, and having the customer choose the higher one in writing beats arguing about it once the paint is on.
For a patch or a small skim coat, usually. Ask for pictures in the thread, price the estimate by square feet or by room, and send it. Anything with a water stain or an unknown wall behind it wants a real look, and that visit books from the same page.
Drag the jobs on the calendar and everyone attached is told automatically, on every plan including the free one. Mud dries slowly in the cold and drives take longer, so the week moving is normal. The phone calls afterwards were the real cost.
Cash and cheques recorded by hand are free and stay free. Card payments come with Pro, which is what most contractors want, because it turns a collection call into a link sitting on the invoice. The plan cards on this page carry the numbers.
Yes, and they behave nothing alike. A builder is one customer with a long run of jobs and a payment history worth keeping. A homeowner is one address and many questions. Both sit on the same records, so you never look anything up twice.
