The measure books itself against your real diary, the estimate puts the roller blinds beside the shutters, and the fitting goes in when the order lands.
Online booking
Somebody in a new build with bare windows takes a Saturday slot off your real diary. A re-cord or a single blind carries a price and books straight in.

The order goes in, the blinds arrive, and the fitting sits in a gap that works. Move it when the delivery slips and nobody needs to be rung.
Learn moreThe jobs you do the same way every time carry a set price on your booking page, so a broken roller or a dead motor takes a real slot while you are up a ladder somewhere else.
The whole-house measure never gets a number attached to it online. It arrives as an enquiry with the rooms, the photos and the address on it, and you price it standing in the hallway.
One figure answers nothing. They want the roller blinds they enquired about, the same rooms in shutters, and what the motorised ones would come to.
Named options on one estimate, with the shutters marked as the ones you would fit at home yourself, is a Pro feature. It tends to save them ringing two more crowds.
Nine windows is nine lines rather than one figure. When the box room comes off the order, a line goes rather than the whole estimate.
Removal and disposal on their own line, which rather quietly explains the gap between your figure and the cheap one.
A house and a rented apartment across town are two addresses on one estimate, and each line stays with the one it belongs to.
Somebody who has just moved into a new build will wait for a fitter who is any good. What loses the job is a page that says nothing.
Three weeks is rarely the problem. Being left to work it out for themselves usually is, and they ring the next crowd on the list.
Room photos, a rough window count and a number arrive as a thread you can pick up between fittings.
When a fitting slips because the delivery slipped, the people already waiting are the ones worth ringing first.
Nine windows, whole house. Photos attached. How far out are you for a measure?
Every window you cover
The free measure every crowd offers, booked from your page against real availability, with the rooms and the address on it before you knock.
Priced per window rather than per house, so a bedroom dropped from the order is a line removed instead of the estimate written again.
Quoted per opening with the frame type on its own line, and the fitting given the hours a shutter genuinely takes to hang and adjust.
Slat width and finish sit as named options on one estimate, so the comparison happens in the hall rather than after two more quotes.
Fabric, lining and make-up itemised per window, with the drop noted on the job so the workroom order goes in off the record you already hold.
Booked as its own short job with the track length noted, so you arrive with the right headrail rather than making a second trip out.
Measured once and quoted by the pane, with the install carrying its own hours because a roof blind is not a bedroom roller.
The motorised upgrade sits beside the manual price rather than replacing it, and commissioning time is on the booking so the day is honest.
A set price on your booking page, so it lands in a real gap while you are up a ladder elsewhere instead of sitting in a voicemail.
Every unit you have done for that agent sits under the one customer with its own address, so the next one starts from what you fitted.
A signed quote is not a booking yet and a fitting is not a diary entry yet. Measured, quoted, on order, fitted — the stage a job sits in is more use to you than the hour it starts, right up until the goods land.
They do the lounge first and ring about the bedrooms later. What was hung, in what fabric and what colour, stays with the address, so the second job starts from a record instead of a second measure.
The sample photo, the change of mind about the lining and the builder asking when you can get in are all in one place per house, rather than in three texts on a phone in the van.
The last blind goes up, the customer pulls it once, and the balance sees itself out while you are picking brackets off the floor.
Mark it paid on the job and it is recorded. That costs nothing on any plan and it always will.
A pay link on the booking, tapped on a phone in the hall before you have packed the drill away.
A job can bill in stages with their own due dates, set after the booking, so the order stage sits weeks ahead of the fitting. That is Pro.
The money is paid out to your own Stripe account rather than held somewhere inside Bookables.
A shutter panel is two metres of hardwood and it does not fold. What rules out a job an hour away is the load, not the diesel.
Name the areas and the booking page only offers slots inside them. Nothing outside gets booked by accident.
You might measure anywhere in the county but only send a fitter out for a re-cord close in. Areas can differ by service.
There is no extra charge for a longer drive here and we will not pretend otherwise. Set the area, or price the job higher.
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. Your page books the measure against your real diary, checks the address falls inside an area you drew, and sends a confirmation immediately with a reminder the day before.
Put both on the same estimate as named options, with the motorised version as a third, and let them compare and choose. Named options on an estimate are part of Pro.
Yes. Staged payments are set on the booking once it exists, so one stage can fall when the order goes in and the balance when the last blind is hung. Staged payments and card payments are Pro.
Move the fitting to the new day on the schedule. The fitter and the customer both see the change without a phone call, and that works on the free plan.
Draw your areas once and the booking page only offers slots inside them. Different services can cover different areas, so a measure can travel further than a repair.
Yes, if you are registered. Turn tax on once and every estimate and payment carries it, so the figure they sign is the figure they pay.
Compare online and phone bookings for service businesses, with a practical way to handle standard jobs, tricky enquiries and customers who prefer a call.
