From the manhole surcharging after a wet night, through the survey, to the lining quote accepted before the van is loaded.
Online booking
Callouts, CCTV surveys and jetting sit on a page with your genuine availability. Someone standing over an overflowing gully picks a time instead.

Drag the emergency into the gap between two surveys. The van has the change before the reel comes off, and nobody rings round to explain the delay.
Learn moreSewage does not wait for office hours. Your booking page takes the callout at your attendance rate and puts it in the run before anyone has picked up a phone.
Set what turning up costs and what the hour after it costs, so the price is settled before the chamber lid is off.
What is coming up the gully, where the chamber is, whether the truck will get down the side. On the booking, not in a text you lose.
Bookable hours are the ones you actually answer, and an emergency rate is an option on the service rather than a second business.
Two days of rain and every manhole in the parish surcharges at once. That is precisely the week your page has nothing left on it.
No slots left reads as booked rather than broken, so the customer asks to go on the list instead of ringing the next name.
A surcharging manhole arrives as a message with the address and photograph attached, and you answer it between jobs.
Surveys and lining quotes that can wait book into the following week, so the lull after the rain is not an empty diary.
Drain in the back yard is overflowing every time the toilet flushes. Can anyone come today?
Two clears and a camera run against one address. That history is what turns a cut-the-roots-again call into a lining quote they say yes to.
A ten minute clear becomes a collapsed section under a yard and the three jobs behind it are all wrong. That is a normal Tuesday.
Half the county is an hour of boreen and a set of roadworks, and a job two towns over eats the afternoon whatever the map claims.
Nobody signs off a reline the day they get it. See which ones have been opened, and which address is one wet week away from ringing you back.
Every job on the truck
Books as an urgent callout with an attendance charge and an hourly rate after it, so the price is settled before the cover lifts.
A short fixed-price booking with the report as the deliverable, and the repair quote raised against the same record.
Priced by the hour, with an option for the nozzle set a fat-laden restaurant run actually needs.
The job that returns. Book the cut now and put the lining quote in front of them the same week.
Quoted as patches, liner metres and junction reinstatements on separate lines, so the total explains itself.
Multi-day work quoted in stages, with reinstatement and spoil as their own lines rather than folded into one figure.
Site visit first, quote second, with the survey booked as its own job on the schedule.
A day or two on site with an excavation option group, quoted after the survey rather than over the phone.
Small fixed-scope work that fills the hour between two bigger jobs, and the schedule shows you which hour that is.
Fixed price, tight deadline, and the report goes back through the thread the buyer or the solicitor opened.
Recurring bookings on an interval, so the next service is on the calendar before you leave this one.
Clear it today, survey it and cut the roots, or line the length that fails every winter. It goes out as one good, better, best estimate.
Pro adds option groups: out-of-hours attendance, a second access point, tankering, or a heavier jetting rate for an old clay run under a yard. Each shifts the price on the estimate already open.
Whatever you measured down the camera becomes the quantities: metres, hours, units. Adjust the run and the total moves on its own.
A quote written at half nine that night competes with everyone else who quoted that day. One sent from the yard does not.
The estimate number is fixed behind a confirm, so a revised quote never arrives carrying the same reference as the first.
When a survey is booked, the open times are ranked by how much extra driving each would add to the day already in the diary.
Nothing already booked is touched. The better times simply sit higher on the page the customer is reading.
A drainage day is a handful of long attendances with a fair stretch of road between them, which is where ranking earns its place.
Distance affects which slot is offered first. It never quietly alters the price the customer is given.
On a callout you are paid at the manhole or you are ringing about it a fortnight later, by which time they have forgotten the smell.
Mark it paid on the job and it is recorded. That sits on every plan and is not going anywhere.
A link they tap in the yard, and the receipt lands against the booking rather than in a notebook.
An excavation can be split across stages once the booking exists. Pro, and after the job is on the calendar.

As you grow with us you can go Pro.
Not in the way gas work is. Whatever training or trade body you belong to goes on your own quotes and invoices, in your own wording, and it stays exactly as you wrote it.
Estimates are structured lines with a quantity and a rate, so a repair reads as metres of liner, patches, junction reinstatement, jetting time and reinstating the surface, each priced separately.
Which is most of them. Book the survey as the bookable thing and raise the excavation or lining quote against the same customer. The survey sits on the schedule as a real job and is not billed as the repair.
No, and it should not pretend to. Technical Guidance Document Part H, the EPA code of practice for domestic waste water treatment systems and whether the connection belongs to Uisce Éireann are all your call on site. Bookables holds the job, the quote and the money.
Cash and bank transfer are recorded by hand and free on any plan. Cards come with Pro, and Pro also splits a longer excavation into stages billed after the booking exists.
Each operator keeps their own hours, their own area and their own job list, and roles decide who can see pricing. A subcontractor gets handed the work without being handed the margins.
