The consultation carries a fee, the design is quoted in tiers, and the drawings are paid for before a machine comes near the site.
Online booking
A first visit with a price and a length on it, booked off your page. It quietly sees off the callers who wanted a free word about a hedge.

Studio time sits beside the site visits on the same calendar, so the fortnight held for a planting plan does not get booked over.
Learn moreA designer is paid for thinking, and the thinking starts the moment you walk through the gate. So the consultation goes on the page as an ordinary service with a fee and a length on it.
The fee sits on the page next to how long you will be there, so nobody is startled to find that an hour of your advice has an invoice behind it.
They pick from the visits you have left this season, rather than filling in a form that promises a call you then have to make.
The survey photos, the concept, the fee proposal and the planting schedule all land on the same record, so a garden has one story rather than four.
Design work runs months ahead. When nothing is left this season the page says so, and it takes the enquiry all the same.
Address, brief and a few photographs of the site in one place, so the drive can be weighed up before anyone lifts a phone.
Replies sit on the record rather than in your texts. What you said in March is still there when they come back in September.
A cancelled consultation is a gap you fill from the same screen, and the confirmation rather sees itself out.
We have just taken the fences down and have no idea what to do with any of it. Is there anything left before the planting season?
Built for your trade
A bare site with a long boundary and a good deal of wind. The measure-up is a paid half day, and the concept is what is being bought.
The landscape drawing the application asks for, quoted on its own line so it reads as a document with a deadline, not as a garden.
Whitethorn, hazel and holly in the right proportions and the right spacing. The species schedule is the deliverable and is priced as one.
Where the water goes and what will tolerate it. That answer takes a morning on site, so the morning is booked and charged.
A small space with a long plant list. Quoted at a flat fee, because the footprint has little to do with the hours it takes to draw.
What stays, what goes and what is underplanted. Two visits and a set of drawings, held on one job so the photographs stay together.
Salt and gales cut the plant list to what genuinely survives. That list is the value, so it is quoted as the thing delivered.
Steps, terraces and retaining set out to scale, so the contractor prices off your paper rather than off a conversation at the gate.
Each check while a contractor works to the drawings is its own booking, so the time on site is invoiced rather than absorbed.
Visited in March, concept in April, the full set in June, planting in the autumn. The stage a design is in tells you far more than the hour it started.
A design fee sits on a phone next to two others for a fortnight. Seeing what has been read and what has been accepted makes the one worth a call obvious.
They ring back when the hedge has closed and they want the far end done. Your visit, your concept, the set you handed over and what they paid for it are all still on the record.
Studio days are the first thing a full diary eats. Block them like a site visit and the fortnight held for a planting plan stops being negotiable.
A concept, the full set with a planting plan, or the set plus visits while a contractor builds it. Three tiers on one document.
Concept, drawings and planting plan are separate lines, so a queried figure can be traced back to the piece of work behind it.
Concept, full set, or the set with site visits. The client compares them without waiting on three separate emails from you.
The proposal goes from the phone at the gate, which tends to be before the client has got back inside.
Pro sets the tiers side by side with one marked as recommended, and prices what a scheme picks up along the way: a lighting layout, an irrigation plan, another round of revisions. Ticking one moves the total.
The fee arrives in pieces, months apart. Cash and bank transfer recorded by hand cost nothing; cards come with Pro.
Mark the consultation paid when the transfer lands. That costs nothing on any plan, and it will carry on costing nothing.
A card link for the consultation, and another when the drawings and the planting plan are handed over.
Part at concept, the balance at the final set. Staged requests come with Pro and go out once the job is booked.

One app for the whole job
You can, and there is nothing unusual about it. Set a fee and a duration, let the client pick a slot, and either take the card on Pro or record the bank transfer by hand for nothing.
No. There is no licence and the title is not protected. The Garden and Landscape Designers Association, formed in 1995, assesses full members who then use the letters MGLDA, and that is voluntary. Bookables neither checks nor shows it.
Yes. Named options on a single estimate, one marked as recommended, and the client decides how far the drawings should go before accepting. Tiered options come with Pro.
They open the link, read the tiers and type their full name. The time is stored against the job, and the accepted estimate turns into a booking with its lines already in place.
Quote that as its own line, so the client sees a document with a date on it rather than a garden. The date sits on the job beside the site photographs and the notes.
It generally is. Two hundred bookings a month are included and no card is needed, which is well ahead of what consultations, studio days and site visits will use.
