Take the site visit online, price sleepers against a block wall, and keep the land drain, the clean stone and the engineer’s design on the job rather than folded in the van.
Online booking
A bank is not something you price down the phone. The client takes a slot and confirms the address; the figure follows once you have seen the ground.

A wall is several days that happen to be one job. Excavation, land drain, courses and backfill each get their own, and they move as a set.

The wall most gardens ask for, and the one most often quoted against something more permanent. Both go on the one estimate.
The design, the reinforcement and the certificate go on the quote as lines, rather than arriving as a phone call after signing.
Priced by the basket, the fill and the haulage, with the geotextile behind them as its own line rather than folded into a rate.
Shuttering, pour and the drainage behind it are separate lines, so the client can see what each part of the wall really costs.
Two low walls and a flat lawn between them. One job, with excavation, drainage and building scheduled as their own days.
A wall with a car above it is a different wall. The surcharge changes the design and the figure, recorded from the site visit on.
A repair that begins with a dig. Photograph what is behind the face, quote from the photographs, and the figure explains itself.
Demolition, haulage and the new wall as separate lines, so the client can see what the old one has quietly been costing them.
Three low walls and a weekend. Booked as one job, with the courses, the topsoil and the capping sitting as priced options.
The slope at the back keeps washing out over the path. Can you come and look before we take the fence down?
Half the enquiries are a picture of a bank and a question. They arrive as a request with the address on them rather than expiring in a full diary.
Booked against your real week and checked against a real address, so you arrive knowing the ground is yours to price rather than an hour you gave away.
A wall is a saved-up-for job, so a quote can sit for two months and still land. See what has been read and what has been signed, and the one worth a call is obvious.
Photograph the drainage, the membrane and the stone before the face covers them, and it is dated and attached to the job. Five years on, that is the only version of events that still exists. Customers never see these notes.
A wall spends days in each stage rather than minutes, so the stage a job sits in is worth more to you than the hour it was meant to start.
Sleepers, gabion baskets, or reinforced block with a rendered face. The same run, three figures, one document to compare them in.
Length, courses, drainage and haulage are separate lines, so a client querying the figure can be shown the part it came from.
Sleepers, gabions and block side by side with one recommended, so the client compares walls rather than ringing two more builders.
They accept from the phone, the name and the time are stored against it, and the accepted quote becomes a booking carrying its lines.
A land drain and clean stone behind it, another course, an engineer’s design once the wall is past what the exemption covers. Ticking one moves the quoted figure, so nothing is written out twice.
Engineers and local authorities keep their own hours. The build sits on the board in plain sight and is dragged to its real week when the paperwork lands.
Move the build to the week the drawing cleared. Excavation and drainage follow it instead of being written out a second time.
Two walls cannot take the same crew on the same day. The database declines the overlap, which is rather firmer than remembering.
Switch on the moment for a rescheduled booking and the new date goes out. Leave it off and nothing is sent at all.
Sleepers, stone and plant hire all leave your account before the first course is level. Record what comes in for nothing, or take cards on Pro.
Mark the wall paid when the transfer lands. Recording money by hand is free on any plan and is going to stay that way.
Send a card link and it is settled from the phone. A direct charge, so the money is yours and it lands in your own account.
Part at the dig, the rest at handover. Staged requests come with Pro, and they go out after the job has been booked.
Claim the ground you work from boundaries that already exist. A wall past it is turned away on the first screen, not a week later on the phone.
Past your coverage. Decline politely, or make an exception.
A wall out past Drumcondra is settled on the first screen, not on the morning you were meant to be there. They can still send an enquiry, and whether it is worth the tow stays your call.

Often not. Class 5 of the Planning and Development Regulations exempts a wall within the curtilage of a house up to two metres, dropping to 1.2 metres where it fronts a public road, and a retaining wall that lifts the ground behind it can be read differently again. Where it is genuinely unclear, a Section 5 declaration from the local authority settles it in writing. Bookables carries the quote and the job, not the declaration.
Yes. They take a time from your real availability and the address is matched against the ground you cover before it reaches the diary. Past that ground they can still send an enquiry rather than bouncing off the page, and it waits in the inbox to accept or decline.
Yes. Named options on one estimate, each priced on its own lines, with one marked as the one you would build. The client picks a tier and accepts by typing their full name, and the accepted quote becomes a booking carrying its lines. Priced options come with Pro.
On the job. Photographs of the land drain, the geotextile and the clean stone go on the record feed as internal notes with attachments, before the face hides them for good. Years later, when a wall is said to be leaning, that feed is the thing you open. Customers never see it.
The neighbour is a conversation and Bookables will not be having it on your behalf. What it does is keep both addresses, the access agreed and every message on the one record, so nobody is arguing from memory in month three.
Nothing to begin with. The Free plan carries a monthly booking allowance and asks for no card, and cash or bank transfer recorded by hand is free on any plan. Cards, priced options and staged requests come with Pro. The plan cards on this page carry the figures.
