The first dry week fills your diary

Three days of sun and everybody rings at once. Each survey books into a slot you actually have rather than into a voicemail box.

Smart scheduling

The weather moves the fitting for you

Nobody fixes an awning to a wet gable in a gale. Move it to Thursday and the confirmation and the reminder both go again on their own.

Shade sail site measure

Nothing free until the end of July.

A fortnight of sun and the fitting diary is gone while the surveys keep arriving. The page says as much and takes the enquiry anyway.

  • They ask rather than move on

    The request arrives with the address, the wall and the weeks that would suit, which is enough to answer it over a cup of tea.

  • One list, not four

    Voicemail, the contact form and a number on the dash become one list, and nothing drops out of it when a week gets shifted.

  • Nothing books itself in

    You accept it or you do not. A cancelled fitting frees a week, and whoever asked first is already written down for it.

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 Ranelagh.

Open, semi cassette, or a full cassette motor.

The same back wall quoted three ways: the open awning on brackets, the semi cassette that keeps the fabric cleaner, or a full cassette on a motor.

  • Priced off the wall, not a rate card

    Projection, width, fixings and fitting are separate lines, so when the cassette price is queried there is something to point at.

  • The survey is the job

    Get the projection and the fixings right on the day and the number you quoted is the number you invoice, which is rather the point.

  • Gone before you reach the van

    The quote leaves from the phone at the kerb, usually before the next crowd have managed to arrange a visit at all.

  • Options priced on the quote · Pro

    A wind sensor, a remote instead of a crank, heavier fixings for a rendered wall, an LED bar for the evenings. Each one moves the total as it is ticked, so the figure is never typed twice.

A motorised awning quote, itemised and ready to send.

A wet week rearranges itself.

Fabric does not go on a wet wall in a gale. Move the fitting and the confirmation, the reminder and the second fitter follow it across.

  • Drag it and it is settled

    The fitting moves to the next dry morning and the customer is told, without you writing the same message three times.

  • Surveys fill the gap

    A day too wet to fit is a fine day to get four surveys done nearby, and both kinds of visit sit on the same board.

  • Close the weeks you are full

    A date override shuts a fitting week so new surveys stop landing inside it, and it works 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

Patio awning off the back of the house

Surveyed on a booked visit, quoted with the cassette and the motor as choices, and fitted once the frame lands with the supplier.

Smoking area canopy for a pub

Itemised so the publican sees the frame, the roof and the fitting apart, and signed on a phone rather than left on the back bar.

Creche shade over the yard

A written number a board can approve, an itemised quote, and a fitting booked into a week when the yard is empty.

Re-cover on a frame that is already up

The fabric has had ten winters, the frame has not. Measured, priced and booked with the original job still on the record.

Storm damage after an Atlantic blow

Requests arrive with the address and the photos attached, so you know whether it is a call out or a full replacement before you leave.

Shade sail over a decking area

Priced off the spans and the fixings rather than a rate per metre, with the survey and the fitting on the one job record.

Clubhouse canopy for a GAA ground

A bigger ticket quoted in tiers so a committee can see the canopy on its own against the canopy with sides on it.

Motor fault on a wind out awning

A short priced call booked into the gap between two fittings instead of being squeezed onto the end of a Friday afternoon.

Shop front awning with signage

Frame, printed fabric and fitting on separate lines, so nobody argues about the artwork after the awning is on the wall.

Winter service and clean

A set price on the booking page for the quiet months, which is how a diary of one off fittings turns into work that comes back.

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

Paid the day it is wound out.

The balance lands at handover. Record cash and transfers by hand for nothing, or send a card link on Pro and let it see itself out.

  • Cash and transfer are free

    Mark it paid when the transfer arrives. That costs nothing on any plan and goes on costing nothing at the busy end of summer.

  • Cards come with Pro

    A link sent from the kerb is often settled before the ladders are on the roof bars, which is one less thing to chase in August.

  • Split across the job

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

How far the van goes with a frame in it.

Every awning is two journeys to one address, so the radius has to pay twice. Set the areas once and the booking page respects them.

  • Your patch, quietly held

    Draw the area around the unit. Anything outside it hears so on the spot rather than after a week of hearing nothing at all.

  • Counted twice over

    A survey and a fitting are two runs to one house, so the area that suits one of them may not suit the pair.

  • One rate inside it

    The price is the price wherever they are in your area. Bookables adds nothing on for the far end of it.

One app for the whole job

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

Scheduling

Surveys and fittings sit on the one board with the supplier lead time in between, so you can see which weeks are gone before you offer one.

Bookings

One record per address, from the survey through the wait on the frame to the day the awning is wound out and handed over properly.

Online booking

Re-covers, services and motor faults carry a set price and book themselves. A new canopy still wants somebody looking at the wall first.

Inbox

Photos of the render, the quote you sent and the message about the side passage all sit on the job instead of in a personal mailbox.

Estimates

Quote the way you price: frame, fabric, motor and fitting on their own lines, with the total following them instead of standing alone.

Customers

A re-cover is the same house eight winters later. What you fitted, what fabric went on and what you charged sit on the one record.

Territories

Set the areas you cover and the ones you do not. A survey and a fitting are two runs to one address and both of them have to pay.

Team

Add the second fitter, note who handles the wiring on a motorised unit, and give the office the diary without the money screens.

Payments

Cash and bank transfer recorded by hand are free on any plan. Card payments come with Pro, and the money is never held on the way to you.

Common questions.

They can. The survey books against your real availability, only for the areas you cover, and the confirmation and the reminder go out on their own.

One quote carries the open awning, the semi cassette and the full cassette with a motor, priced beside each other. The customer signs the one they want online and it becomes a booked fitting. Priced options come with Pro.

Not at the point of booking. Once the job is on the board you can send a payment request for part of it and another for the balance after fitting. Card payments and staged requests come with Pro; cash and bank transfer recorded by hand are free.

Move them. Each fitting drags to a dry morning and the confirmations follow, and a date override closes a week you are already committed to so no new surveys land in it.

It does. A re-cover or a motor fault is a priced job the customer books themselves, and the customer record shows what you fitted at that address and when.

Nothing for the bookings. Pro is the part that adds card payments and priced options on a quote, and the plan cards below carry the numbers.
