The sunroom nobody can sit in by June books a survey. The single-pane job takes a price and books itself. Both land on the same board.

One south-facing pane in solar film has a price and takes a real slot. A sunroom roof books a survey, which is rather the point of it.

Most film jobs are done inside a morning, so the driving is the expense. The week sits on one board and the new job drags in beside the last.
Learn moreThe choice is nearly always the same three films on the same glazing. Put them on one quote and the customer picks without a second visit.
Panes are the driver, so the figure is built off the glazing you surveyed rather than a number arrived at on the doorstep.
Solar, anti-glare and safety film sit side by side, so the upgrade rather sells itself instead of needing a second quote.
They sign on a phone and it becomes an install in the diary with the film they chose attached to it.
Ceramic in place of standard solar, frosted manifestation on the consultation room, anti-shatter on the shopfront. Each ticks on and moves the total, so a change of mind costs nobody a re-typed quote.
A warm fortnight fills the diary and the enquiries carry on regardless. With nothing left to offer, the page takes the job as a message.
It arrives as a thread carrying the rooms, the glazing and the address, rather than as a missed call taken halfway up a ladder.
Reply from the phone while the film soaks. The conversation stays on the job instead of half in messages and half in email.
When something frees up in September, the thread turns into a survey visit and the address comes along with it.
The lounge is unusable after two. Can you price solar film for the four big panes, and frosting on the ensuite while you are here?
A fit-out slips and somebody swaps their Thursday. Drag it, and the confirmation and the reminder follow along without being asked.
Move an install to another morning on the board. The customer is told and nothing is re-typed anywhere.
The day-before email goes against the new time rather than the one first agreed on the phone.
Moving your own week about was never the paid part of this, and it is not about to become it.
A single lounge window in solar film is the same job every time, so it takes a real gap on your calendar without a phone call in between.
Film outlives the conversation about it. Which film, which rooms and what they paid are still on the customer's card when they ring back.
A tint quote sits on a phone beside two others and the difference is usually one call. See what has been read and what has been signed.
Built for your trade
The room they stopped using in June. Surveyed first, because polycarbonate and glass are not the same job and the pitch decides the day.
One elevation, two hours, off a set price on the booking page. The sort of job that should never need a phone call to arrange at all.
Priced per pane and fitted at a weekend so nobody is moved off a desk. One record for the floor, invoiced once it is finished.
Privacy to a line the practice agrees, cut and fitted out of hours. Its own service, with a duration that reflects the cutting.
Fitted before opening. Which film went on which pane stays on the job record for when the insurer asks about it a year later.
A small sale that rides on the same quote as a ticked option rather than becoming a second appointment three weeks down the line.
Fixed price, fixed duration, books itself into the unit. Two back to back beats one survey on the far side of the county.
Removal is what takes the morning, so it sits on the quote as its own line rather than quietly inflating the labour figure.
Half an hour of work and a five-minute conversation. Set price, booked online, no survey and no back-and-forth over email.
Two installs in one town is a decent afternoon. One either side of the county rather is not. Pro scores slots on the driving they add.
You still choose. Pro simply puts the slot beside the install you already have that morning at the top rather than leaving you to guess.
Customers see the times that suit the run first, so the day rather stacks itself as bookings arrive.
Slot ranking comes with Pro. Dragging your own day about stays free, on every plan.
A domestic install is settled on the day and an office floor is invoiced. Record cash and transfer by hand for nothing, or cards on Pro.
Mark the job paid when the transfer arrives. That is free on every plan and it is going to stay that way.
Send a card link from the doorstep while the customer is still admiring the glazing.
It goes the moment the job is marked paid, which saves the email a week later asking for one.
An hour on the motorway for a two-hour install is most of a day. Set the areas you cover and the page declines the ones you do not.
Coverage follows the towns you actually work, so a river or a motorway can be the edge of it rather than a circle on a map.
The address is checked before a slot is offered, which spares everybody three days of waiting for a no.
Inside your area the price is the price. Bookables never quietly adds anything for a longer drive.
Add your whole team and get booking for nothing.

One app for the whole job
Yes. A set-price job such as one south-facing bay in solar film books straight into a real slot, with confirmation and a day-before reminder sent for you. A sunroom or an office floor books a survey visit instead, since neither can honestly be priced over the phone.
Build one estimate and put the film in as a priced option group. The customer compares standard solar against ceramic, adds frosted film for the consultation room, and signs on a phone. The signed quote becomes a booked install with the film on it. Priced options come with Pro.
It does. A car is a service with a fixed duration and a fixed price, so it books itself into the unit, while a building is surveyed first. Legal light transmission limits for vehicle glass are set in road traffic law, and working inside them is your judgement rather than something Bookables decides.
Yes. Set the areas the van covers and the booking page checks the address before it offers a slot. Anything beyond it arrives as an enquiry you can price a travel day around, rather than as a confirmed booking you then have to ring back and undo.
The page stops offering slots you do not have and takes the enquiry as a message, with the rooms and the address already attached. When something frees up, that thread becomes a survey visit without anybody re-typing the address.
There is, and it covers the parts that matter most on your own: the calendar, the quotes, the booking page, and recording cash and bank transfers by hand. Card payments and priced options come with Pro. The plan cards above carry the numbers.
