Online booking
The site visit books itself, the wall does not
A bank cannot be priced down the phone. The client picks a time and confirms the address, and the number follows once you have walked the section.

Digger day, drainage day, build days
A wall is not one visit. The dig, the novacoil, the poles and the backfill each get a day, and they move together the moment one of them slips.
Learn moreBuilt for your trade
Built for the walls you are actually asked to build
H5 pole and timber wall down a bank
The wall most sections get. Priced by the run, the pole spacing and the depth of the holes, with the metal and cloth as their own lines.
Keystone block wall to an engineered design
The design, the geogrid and the certificate go on the quote as lines, not as a phone call after the client has already signed.
Concrete crib wall on a steep section
Access, crane time and cartage ride as options, because getting the units to the back of the section is half the job.
Cut and fill to level a sloping section
Two short walls and a flat bit between them. One job, with the dig, the drainage and the build sitting as separate days.
Novacoil retro-fit behind a wall that weeps
A repair that starts with a dig. Photograph what you find, quote off the photos, and the client can see where the number came from.
Driveway wall carrying a surcharge
A wall with a car on top of it is a different wall. The surcharge changes the design and the price, and it is recorded from the visit on.
Boundary wall with the neighbour above
Two properties, one wall, and ground on both sides. Both addresses and every message stay on the one record from the first visit.
Replacing a rotted timber wall
Demolition, cartage and the new wall as separate lines, so the client can see exactly what the old one has been costing them.
Terraced beds up a back section
Three low walls and a weekend. Book it as one job and let the courses, the soil and the capping sit 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?
The wall you cannot price from a photo.
Half your enquiries are a picture of a bank and a question. They land as a request with the address attached instead of dying in a full diary.
The visit that turns a slope into a number.
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.

Which quotes were opened, and which went quiet.
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.

The half of the wall nobody will ever see again.
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.
Where every wall has got to, without ringing the crew.
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.
One sloping section, three walls.
H5 poles and timber, keystone block, or crib units. The same run, three prices, one document the client can actually compare.
Priced off the run, not off a guess
Length, poles, holes and cartage are separate lines, so when the client queries the number you can point at the part it came from.
Three walls, one document
Timber, keystone and crib sit side by side with one recommended, so the client compares walls instead of ringing two more builders.
Signed by typing their name
They accept on the phone, the name and the time are stored against it, and the accepted quote becomes a booking carrying its lines.
The engineering priced as an option · Pro
Novacoil and drainage metal, another course, the engineering once the wall passes what the council allows. Tick one and the quoted total moves with it, so nothing gets re-typed on site.

The fortnight waiting on a consent.
Consent and engineering answer to nobody. The build sits on the board where you can see it and gets dragged to its real week when the paperwork lands.
Drag it, do not rebuild it
Move the build to the week the consent cleared. The dig and the drainage follow it rather than being typed in again from a text.
Nothing lands on top of itself
Two walls cannot take the same crew on the same day. The database refuses the overlap, which is stronger than remembering.
Tell the client, if you want to
Switch on the moment for a rescheduled booking and they get the new date. Leave it off and nothing goes out at all.
Paid before the gear goes back on.
Poles, metal and machine hire are all out of your pocket before the first course is level. Record what comes in for nothing, or take cards on Pro.
Cash and transfer cost nothing
Mark the wall paid when the transfer lands. Recording money by hand is free on any plan and it will stay that way.
Cards come with Pro
Send a card link and the client settles it off the phone. It is a direct charge, so the money is yours and lands in your account.
Split it across the build
Ask for part at the dig and the rest at handover. Staged requests come with Pro, and they go out after the job is booked.

How far the digger is worth towing.
Claim the ground you work from the boundaries that already exist. A wall past it is turned away on the first screen, not a week later by phone.
Past your coverage. Decline politely, or make an exception.
The one just past the line.
A wall out past Grey Lynn 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.

Common questions.
Often not, and the rule here is unusually clear. Schedule 1 of the Building Act exempts a retaining wall up to 1.5 metres of retained ground, provided nothing surcharges it, so a driveway, a shed or a pool behind the wall puts you back in front of the council. Exempt work still has to meet the Building Code. Bookables carries the quote and the job, not the consent.
Yes. They pick a time from your real availability and the address is matched against the ground you cover before it reaches your 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. Photos of the novacoil, the cloth and the drainage metal go on the record feed as internal notes with attachments, before the timber covers them for good. Five years later, when somebody says the wall has moved, that feed is what you open. Customers never see it.
The neighbour is a conversation and Bookables will not have it for you. What it does is keep both addresses, the access you agreed and every message on the one record, so nobody is arguing from memory in month three.
Nothing to start. The Free plan carries a monthly booking allowance with no card required, 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.
