Measures book themselves the week the patios open, retractables get quoted with the motor beside them, and the fall take-down is already priced on your page.
Online booking
The patio season starts on one weekend in May. Every measure books into real availability, so you are quoting instead of returning calls at night.

Fabric does not go up in a gusty forecast. Drag the install to the next clear morning and your customer and your crew are both told for you.
Learn moreA short season and a full install calendar, with measures still coming in. The page tells them where you are and captures the job anyway.
The request arrives with the address, the deck or the wall, and the weeks that suit them, so you can answer it over lunch.
Voicemail, the web form and a name on a work order become one list you can work through, and nothing is lost when a week shifts.
You accept or you decline. When an install cancels the week opens, and the first person waiting on it is already written down.
Two sails over the deck before the season gets away from us. Happy to wait a few weeks, we are in The Beaches.
The same deck, quoted three ways: the manual retractable, the motorized unit with a wind sensor, or a fixed cover engineered to stay up all winter.
Projection, width, fixings and install are separate lines, so when somebody asks why the motorized unit costs more you can show them.
Get the projection and the fixings right on the day and the number you quoted is the number you invoice. Fabric cut wrong is your money.
The estimate goes out from your phone at the curb, usually before the next company has even scheduled a visit to come and look.
A wind sensor, an LED bar for the evenings, a remote instead of a crank, a winter cover for the cassette. Every option moves the estimate total as your customer checks it, so nothing gets retyped.
Wind takes an install off the board, and you cannot afford to lose the day. Move it and the confirmation and the crew move with it.
The install goes to the next clear morning and your customer is told automatically, so nobody gets a text at nine at night.
A day too windy to hang fabric is a great day to knock out four measures nearby, and both sit on the same board.
A date override closes a full install week so new measures stop landing in the middle of it, on any plan.
Accepted, on the board, fabricated, installed, paid. Three weeks of nothing visible is where jobs get lost, so the record carries its own state and the customer gets told at each step without you writing a message.
Built for your trade
The measure books online, the estimate offers the motor as an upgrade, and the install lands the week the unit arrives from the plant.
A set price on your booking page in September, so a whole street books their own take-down while you are still installing.
The same address, six months later. The record shows what came off and where it goes back, so a new installer can run the job.
A bigger ticket quoted in tiers, so a homeowner can weigh the seasonal awning against the structure that stays up through winter.
Frame, valance and install itemized so an owner can approve it quickly, and signed on a phone between the lunch and dinner rush.
Priced off the spans and the post work rather than square footage, with the concrete cure sitting between your two visits.
Eight winters is hard on fabric and easy on aluminum. Measured, priced and booked with the original install still on the record.
A short priced service call that books into the gap between two installs rather than getting squeezed onto a Saturday morning.
Several small units on one estimate, each one its own line, so a homeowner can drop two without you rewriting the whole thing.
A written, itemized number a board can vote on, with the accepted version recorded so nobody reopens it next spring.
A re-tension, a take-down, an awning service. Set price, booked into a real gap while you are up a ladder with a turnbuckle.
Down before the storms, back up before the heat. What you hung there, what fabric went on and what you charged, on one card.
A shade quote sits on a phone until the next hot week. See what has been opened and what has been signed, so the one worth a call is obvious.
The balance lands at handover and you should not have to chase it. Record cash and cheques by hand for free, or send a card link on Pro.
Mark the job paid when the cheque clears. That costs nothing on any plan, however many awnings you get up before the snow.
Send a link from the driveway and it is usually settled before the ladders are back on the rack. We never hold your money.
Part when the fabric is ordered, the rest at handover. Staged requests come with Pro and go out once the job is booked.
Every awning is two trips to one address, so your radius has to pay for both. Set the areas once and the booking page holds them for you.
Draw the area around the shop. Anyone outside it hears so right away instead of waiting on a callback that never comes.
A measure and an install are two runs to one house, so the radius that works for a single visit may not work for the pair.
Inside your area the price is the price. Bookables never quietly adds anything on for a longer drive to the far edge of it.
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. The measure books into a slot you really have, only for addresses inside the areas you serve, and the confirmation and reminder go out on their own.
Put them on one estimate: the manual retractable, the motorized unit with a wind sensor, and the fixed cover built for a snow load. Your customer signs the one they want on their phone and it becomes a booked install. Priced options come with Pro.
Not at the moment they book. Once the job is on your board you can send a payment request for part of it and another for the balance after install. Card payments and staged requests come with Pro, and cash or cheque recorded by hand is free.
That is the best part. Both are priced jobs your customers book themselves, and each address carries a record of what came off last fall, so you know what is going back up.
You move it. Each install drags to the next clear morning and the confirmations follow, and a date override closes weeks you are already committed to.
Your bookings are free. Pro is what adds card payments and priced options on an estimate, and the plan cards on this page carry the numbers.
