Smart scheduling

Fixing, stopping and sanding in the right order

Board goes up, joints get stopped, coats dry, then it sands. Put each stage on the calendar with its own duration so the order holds with three jobs on.

Built for your trade

From a patch round a light switch to a whole house of walls and ceilings

Ceiling repair after a roof leak

Books short, priced by room, with the photos already on the thread. The insurer gets a real quote instead of a text message.

GIB fixing and stopping a new build

A run of days rather than a booking. Fix, stop, sand, each with its own duration and its own crew on the calendar.

Overskim on tired walls

Priced by area or by room, with the finish level as an option so what it adds is agreed before the first coat goes on.

Solid plaster repair on an older place

The one you cannot quote from a photo. Books as a measure-up and comes back as an estimate with its own lines.

External plaster on a new extension

Restricted building work, weather dependent, priced by area. Sits on the calendar with real curing time and moves as a block.

Patch and make good after the sparky

Small and fast, and a day-wrecker when it is booked badly. Real duration, books straight in off your page.

Cornice and scotia replacement

Profile is the whole conversation, so it is an option group with a price difference rather than a guess in the total.

Wet area sheeting before the tiler

Booked to land between the plumber and the tiler, and when it moves both of them see it move.

Textured ceiling removal

Priced by room with the make-good as its own line, because the reason it is not a morning has to be visible.

Bulkheads, arches and detail work

Quoted after a look, never from a photo. The measure-up and the estimate belong to the same job record.

What the job carries before anyone loads up.

Room count, finish level, the profile to match, where the water is and how to get in. On the job when you take it, not remembered on the drive over.

The photos, the dust question and the yes, all one thread.

Half of plastering is quoted off pictures of a stain on a ceiling. Those pictures belong on the job, not three screens deep in a phone.

The builder who is eleven rooms deep.

One customer, a long run of jobs and a payment history worth keeping, instead of eleven separate searches through last year's messages.

Re-stopping a room, quoted three ways.

A homeowner asking what plastering costs wants three numbers, not one: patch and make good, a full overskim, or strip it back and re-sheet.

  • Area, rooms or hours

    Price the way you already price. Square metres for walls and ceilings, rooms for a re-stop, hours for patch and make good.

  • Finish level as a choice

    Level 4 and Level 5 sit side by side with a price difference, so the standard is agreed in writing before anyone opens a bucket.

  • Accepted online and kept

    They accept from the link and the job carries what was agreed, which is the version that settles it when the painter complains.

  • Extras priced as options · Pro

    Pro adds the extras on top: cornice, Level 5 stopping, wet area board, taking the rubbish away. Each carries its own price difference, so the number moves while they choose.

When the weather takes the day.

Exterior plaster will not go on wet and stopping will not sand before it dries. Every plasterer loses days to that; the ringing around is the cost.

  • Drag it and it is handled

    Move the job and the customer and the crew both find out. Free, on every plan.

  • The run moves as a run

    Push the fixing and the stopping behind it follows, instead of leaving a hole you notice on Thursday.

  • No apology calls

    The notification does the awkward bit. You get on with the next room.

Booked out for weeks, which is the normal state.

A good stopper is never free next Tuesday. The page should say that plainly and still catch the person who will wait for you.

  • Slots come off your real calendar

    Nothing books into a week you have already promised to a builder, because the page can only offer what is left.

  • Full still takes the enquiry

    With no slots left they send photos and an address instead, and it lands in the inbox rather than in a missed call.

  • The quote does not have to wait

    An estimate can be sent and accepted with no date on it yet. The date follows once the run in front clears.

Ceiling in the back bedroom has come down after a leak. Photos attached, is there anything before the end of the month?

Paid before you pack the van.

Most of the money is either a progress claim to a builder or a lump on completion. Both go faster when the invoice already sits on the job.

  • Cash and transfer, free

    Record what landed by hand and the job closes out. No plan needed and nothing taken off the top.

  • Cards come with Pro

    A link on the invoice beats a phone call a fortnight later. That is the part the paid plan buys.

  • Staged when the job is staged

    A long fixing and stopping job can bill in stages after the booking exists. Nothing is taken when somebody books.

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

The suburbs actually worth the drive.

A ute full of board and an hour on the motorway turns a good day into a poor one. Say where you go once instead of arguing it per enquiry.

  • Draw it rather than describe it

    Mark the suburbs you cover. Outside them people get told plainly, instead of booking and being cancelled.

  • Crews can hold different ground

    The exterior plaster crew and the interior stoppers rarely work the same patch. Each carries its own area.

  • And what you will not take

    Heritage solid plaster, two-storey exterior with no scaffold, whatever it is. Better on the page than on the phone.

A map with three service areas shaded over a street grid, and a list of territories beneath, each a group of districts with its crew.

One app for the whole job

Everything you need to run your plastering business.

Scheduling

Fixing days, stopping days and sanding days sit on one calendar, so nobody turns up to sand a room that was only stopped yesterday afternoon.

Bookings

Every job carries the room count, the finish level, the cornice profile and how to get in, so the van is loaded right before you leave the yard.

Online booking

Patch jobs and measure-ups take a slot off your page while you are up the trestles, priced by the room or by the square metre.

Inbox

The photo of the cracked ceiling, the question about dust and the confirmation all sit on one thread against the job, not across three apps.

Estimates

Quote a re-stop line by line, square metres by rate, with make-good and cornice as separate lines the customer reads and accepts online.

Customers

Builders, property managers and homeowners each keep a history, so last winter’s ceiling repair is on screen when they ring about the crack.

Territories

Draw the suburbs you will drive to and the ones you will not, so an hour-each-way patch job never quietly books itself into your week.

Team

Owners see the money, managers move the run, and the stoppers on site see only the jobs, the addresses and the notes they need that day.

Payments

Cash and bank transfer are recorded by hand for free. Cards come with Pro, so the builder can pay a progress claim straight off the invoice.

Common questions.

Interior stopping does not, but external plaster does when it is restricted building work. The Licensed Building Practitioner scheme has an External plastering licence class covering things like preparing substrate, frame and reinforcing for a new external plaster system, and an LBP must carry out or supervise that work. Interior linings are unlicensed but still get built to AS/NZS 2589. Put your LBP number on the estimate template so it goes out on every quote.

For a patch or a small re-stop, usually. Ask for the photos on the thread, price the estimate by square metres or by room, send it. Anything with a water stain or older solid plaster wants a measure-up, and that books off the same page.

Make it an option on the service with its own price difference. Level 4 and Level 5 under AS/NZS 2589 are genuinely different amounts of work, and having the customer tick the higher one is a lot easier than explaining it after the painter has been through.

Move the jobs on the calendar and everyone attached to them is told. That is free on any plan, which matters here because exterior plaster loses days to weather and the ringing around afterwards is the expensive part.

Cash and bank transfer are recorded by hand for free. Cards come with Pro, which is what most people want when they are chasing a builder for a progress claim. The plan cards on this page carry the numbers.

Yes, and they are different animals. A builder is one customer with a long run of jobs and a history. A homeowner is one job and a lot of questions. Both live on the same records, so nothing gets looked up twice.
