The long weekend fills your measure list

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.

Smart scheduling

A windy day moves itself down the week

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.

Shade sail site measure

Booked to August by the long weekend.

A short season and a full install calendar, with measures still coming in. The page tells them where you are and captures the job anyway.

  • They ask instead of calling someone else

    The request arrives with the address, the deck or the wall, and the weeks that suit them, so you can answer it over lunch.

  • Every overflow lead in one list

    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.

  • Nothing books without your yes

    You accept or you decline. When an install cancels the week opens, and the first person waiting on it is already written down.

A booking request inside a message thread, answered with accept or decline without leaving the conversation.

Two sails over the deck before the season gets away from us. Happy to wait a few weeks, we are in The Beaches.

Manual, motorized, or built for the snow.

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.

  • Priced off the wall, not a rate sheet

    Projection, width, fixings and install are separate lines, so when somebody asks why the motorized unit costs more you can show them.

  • The measure is the whole job

    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.

  • Sent before you leave the driveway

    The estimate goes out from your phone at the curb, usually before the next company has even scheduled a visit to come and look.

  • Options priced on the quote · Pro

    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.

A motorised awning quote, itemised and ready to send.

A short season rearranges itself.

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.

  • Drag it and you are done

    The install goes to the next clear morning and your customer is told automatically, so nobody gets a text at nine at night.

  • Fill the gap with measures

    A day too windy to hang fabric is a great day to knock out four measures nearby, and both sit on the same board.

  • Block the weeks you are slammed

    A date override closes a full install week so new measures stop landing in the middle of it, on any plan.

A day on the schedule where one job is dragged from one time to a later one and snaps into place on the grid.

The job keeps moving while the sail is being made.

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

Built for the shade you actually hang

Retractable awning over the deck

The measure books online, the estimate offers the motor as an upgrade, and the install lands the week the unit arrives from the plant.

Fall take-down before the first snow

A set price on your booking page in September, so a whole street books their own take-down while you are still installing.

Spring re-install after the thaw

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.

Fixed patio cover rated for snow load

A bigger ticket quoted in tiers, so a homeowner can weigh the seasonal awning against the structure that stays up through winter.

Restaurant patio awning

Frame, valance and install itemized so an owner can approve it quickly, and signed on a phone between the lunch and dinner rush.

Sun shade over a pool deck

Priced off the spans and the post work rather than square footage, with the concrete cure sitting between your two visits.

Re-cover on an existing frame

Eight winters is hard on fabric and easy on aluminum. Measured, priced and booked with the original install still on the record.

Motor repair on a wind out awning

A short priced service call that books into the gap between two installs rather than getting squeezed onto a Saturday morning.

Window awnings across a front elevation

Several small units on one estimate, each one its own line, so a homeowner can drop two without you rewriting the whole thing.

Condo balcony shade approved by the board

A written, itemized number a board can vote on, with the accepted version recorded so nobody reopens it next spring.

The small job has a price before you answer.

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.

The same house, twice a year, every year.

Down before the storms, back up before the heat. What you hung there, what fabric went on and what you charged, on one card.

Which quotes went quiet when the weather cooled.

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.

Pro

Get paid the day it goes up.

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.

  • Cash and cheques are free

    Mark the job paid when the cheque clears. That costs nothing on any plan, however many awnings you get up before the snow.

  • Cards come with Pro

    Send a link from the driveway and it is usually settled before the ladders are back on the rack. We never hold your money.

  • Split it across the job

    Part when the fabric is ordered, the rest at handover. Staged requests come with Pro and go out once the job is booked.

How far the truck goes with a frame on it.

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.

  • Your service area, your call

    Draw the area around the shop. Anyone outside it hears so right away instead of waiting on a callback that never comes.

  • Counted twice, not once

    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.

  • One price across the whole area

    Inside your area the price is the price. Bookables never quietly adds anything on for a longer drive to the far edge of it.

One app for the whole job

Everything you need to run your shade sail and awning business.

Scheduling

Measures, installs and the fall take-down run share one board, so you can see which weeks are gone before you promise anybody a date.

Bookings

One record per address, from the first measure through the wait on the fabric to the day the awning is wound out and handed over.

Online booking

Take-downs, re-installs and service calls carry a set price and book themselves. A new awning still needs your tape on the wall first.

Inbox

Their photos of the siding, the estimate you sent and the note about the alley access all live on the job instead of in your texts.

Estimates

Estimate the way you price: frame, fabric, motor and install on their own lines, with the total following them rather than standing alone.

Customers

The same address calls every fall for the take-down and every spring for the re-install. All of it sits on one card, year after year.

Territories

Set the areas you serve and the ones you do not. Every awning is two trips to one address, and both of them have to be worth the drive.

Team

Add your second installer, note who handles the wiring on a motorized unit, and give the office the schedule without the money screens.

Payments

Cash and cheques you record by hand are free on any plan. Card payments come with Pro, and we never hold your money on the way to you.

Common questions.

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.
