Rotten weatherboard, a gate off its hinges, a door swollen through winter. Give the short jobs a real duration and they slot into the gaps.

Smart scheduling

A week of framing is one block

Bearers Monday, joists Tuesday, decking Wednesday and Thursday. One block on the calendar, so nothing gets booked into the middle of it.

The work is booked in weeks, not hours.

Framing days, boarding days, a fit-out that eats a Thursday. A carpentry diary is read across weeks, so the honest question is never what time you are free — it is which week is still open.

When the week has already gone.

Carpentry books out in weeks. When the days are gone the page stops offering them and asks instead.

  • Nothing offered that you cannot work

    If the deck has taken Monday to Thursday, those days are not on the page. The calendar decides, not a guess.

  • The enquiry still comes through

    They leave the job, the address and a photo of the rot rather than ringing the next builder on the list.

  • Price it that evening

    It is sitting in the inbox with the detail attached, so the quote takes minutes rather than another call.

How far you will take the trailer.

A week of framing an hour out is worth the drive. A half-hour door adjustment an hour out is not. Draw the areas you work and the site holds that line.

  • Drawn, not guessed

    Mark the suburbs on the map. Inside, people book. Outside, they get the enquiry form.

  • Different work, different reach

    You will drive further for a cladding job than for a sticking door, and the areas can say exactly that.

  • No charge for the drive

    We never add money for a longer trip. Where you will go is a boundary, not a surcharge.

A deck out the back, priced three ways.

Every deck enquiry runs the same way: how big, what timber, is the old one coming out. One estimate carrying pine, kwila and vitex options.

  • Let them pick the timber, with Pro

    Pro: option groups. Handrail or open edge, one step or a full run, stained or left to grey off. Each carries a price difference and the total updates, so the number they accept is the number you invoice.

  • Quantities and rates, not one lump

    Square metres of decking, lineal metres of handrail, days of labour. Nothing on the estimate is a mystery.

  • One address per line

    The deck at the house and the fence at the bach on one estimate, each line keeping its own address when it books.

  • Numbered once

    Estimate numbers are set behind a confirmation and never change, so your records and the client copy agree.

Built for your trade

Built for every kind of carpentry and joinery

Decks and stairs

Priced by area with the timber as an option, booked as the run of days the framing and boarding actually take.

Weatherboard repairs

Rot cut out and replaced. Quoted hourly with a materials line, because nobody knows what is behind it yet.

Cladding remediation

A long job with a lot of stages. Book the whole run and keep the owner and the surveyor on one thread.

Villa restoration

Sash windows, scotia and skirting matched to what is there. Priced per room so the owner can stage it.

Wardrobe and joinery fits

The joinery arrives, you fit it. Book the install against the delivery date and keep both on the same job.

Framing for extensions

Days of framing booked in one block, with the builder and the owner reading the same calendar as you.

Door hanging and adjustments

The half-hour job that fills the gap between two bigger ones instead of costing you two phone calls.

Pergolas and shade structures

Posts, beams and roofing on separate estimate lines, so the client can see what dropping the roof saves.

Fences and gates

Priced per metre off a photo, booked in the half day it takes, paid before you leave the driveway.

Second fix on a new build

Skirting, scotia, doors and hardware priced by room, booked around whoever is still in the house.

The forty-minute job books itself.

A sticking door or a gate that needs rehanging is too small to quote and too easy to lose. Put it on your page with its own price and its own length and it lands in the gap on its own.

The address remembers the timber.

Every deck, robe and rehung door at that property on one record. When they ring three years later about matching the boards, you are reading what you actually used rather than guessing.

When the timber is late.

The kwila did not land, the concrete is green, the sparky is still in the wall. The day moves and the rest of the run moves behind it.

  • Drag it, do not retype it

    Push the block to Thursday and every day inside it goes with it. On any plan, the free one included.

  • One calendar, everyone on it

    Your chippy opens the app on site and reads exactly what you are reading back at the yard.

  • The client hears it once

    The change goes out on the job thread, so nobody is standing in the backyard at seven waiting on you.

Paid before the trailer is hitched.

Most of this money still arrives by bank transfer, and recording that by hand is free and stays free. Cards are the part that comes with Pro.

  • Cash and transfer, free

    Mark the job paid and you are done. No fee, no plan, nothing waiting to clear.

  • Cards on Pro

    Send the link from the driveway and the small job is settled before you are back on the road.

  • Stage the long ones

    Staged payments are Pro: ask at frame-up and again at handover, after the job is booked rather than at checkout.

A list of payments, each with the customer, reference, date, method and amount, with totals received and still outstanding.

One app for the whole job

Everything you need to run your carpentry business.

Estimates

Framing, cladding, joinery and labour on their own lines with quantities and rates, so the client sees where the money goes.

Scheduling

Bearers Monday, joists Tuesday, decking through Thursday. A week of carpentry sits as one block instead of four loose visits.

Online booking

Door adjustments and measure-ups take a slot off your site. Decks and extensions come in as an enquiry you price, not a booking.

Bookings

The job holds the detail: pile spacing, timber, whether the old deck comes out first. Not a note on the back of a docket.

Inbox

The owner emails, the joinery firm rings about delivery, the builder texts. One thread per job, so nothing gets explained twice.

Customers

Every deck, window and rehung door at that address on one record, with the timber you used, for when they ring in three years.

Territories

Draw the suburbs you will drive to. Past the line the site takes an enquiry instead of a booking that eats half your morning.

Team

Apprentice on demo, chippy on the setout. Staff get their own login and see the jobs they are on, not rates or client records.

Payments

Cash and bank transfer recorded by hand cost nothing. Cards come with Pro, so the repair is paid before you hitch the trailer.

Common questions.

No. This is job software and it does not touch your licensing. Restricted building work has to be done or supervised by a Licensed Building Practitioner, and the Carpentry class is the one most builders hold, but that is between you and the scheme. Quoting and booking work the same either way.

Yes. Book it across the days it really takes and the calendar shows the block, so a Thursday enquiry lands the following week rather than on top of your decking day. Shift the block and every day inside it shifts too.

Anything bigger than a repair should be quoted. Put framing, cladding, joinery and labour on their own lines with quantities and rates, send it, and let it sit. Nothing hits the calendar until it is accepted and you choose the week.

Option groups are a Pro feature: pine, kwila or vitex, each carrying its own price difference. The client ticks and the total moves, which saves you rewriting the same estimate three times.

Recording cash and bank transfer by hand is free and stays free. Card payments come with Pro, which is what lets a small repair be paid off before you have got the trailer hitched.

Yes, with their own login. They see the jobs they are on and nothing else: rates, client records and the money side stay with whoever runs the business.
