Membrane down, flood test held, tiler in on Friday. Bookables keeps the whole run on one job instead of scattered across a builder group chat.
Online booking
The page asks what matters — where the water shows up, tiled or acrylic, single storey or over a garage — and puts it in a slot that exists.

Coat one, coat two, the hold and the handover are one job across four days. Move it and the whole run travels, so the tiler is never in early.
Learn morePrep, primer, bond breaker, coat one, the cure, coat two, the flood test, the handover. Eight things across four days, and the trade behind you only cares about the last one.
Not four bookings pretending to be strangers. One job, with its stages, its membrane system and its photos all on the same record.
A twenty-four hour hold is time on the calendar with your name against it, which is the only version of it a builder cannot talk you out of.
The tiler goes in after the flood test, not the afternoon you finished coating. Put that on the calendar and the argument stops happening.
Ten minutes after you leave, your work is under a screed and nobody will ever look at it again — until it leaks, and then everybody looks at once.
The system you used, the coats you put on, the day it was flood tested and what you charged, still there four winters later.
The shots you take before the screed goes down sit against the booking they belong to, rather than in a camera roll with your kids in it.
A builder or a building manager is one customer with a file per property, so the block you did last spring is not eleven loose conversations.
Every wet area you seal
Bathrooms, ensuites and laundries booked off the builder programme. The job carries the substrate, the upstand height and the coat count.
Charge for the look, then quote the fix. Re-seal, overlay or strip and re-line go on one estimate as three lines the owner can compare.
The ones where a failure ends up in a ceiling. Priced on area, with the flashings, upstands and drainage detailed as their own lines.
Weather work you will move at least once. Drag it to the next clear day and the homeowner and the roofer both get the new time without a round of texts.
Excavation access, positive or negative side, drainage coil. Each goes on the estimate as an option with its own price.
Small, awkward and easy to underquote. Book three in a run through the same suburbs instead of losing a day to one on the other side of the harbour.
Long jobs with a body corporate on the other end. One estimate carrying every unit as its own line, then a booking per unit once the scope is signed off.
The hold is a booking, not empty space. It sits between the final coat and the tiler so the sequence survives contact with a builder in a hurry.
A short paid visit ending in a written scope. Take the money on the day, then send the estimate with the photos and the falls already written down.
The junctions everything fails at. Quote them as named lines so the builder can see the fifteen minutes of detail work they left out of the last price.
The homeowner wants one number. There are three: re-seal and monitor, overlay the existing tiles with a new membrane, or strip it out and re-line it.
Pro adds option groups, so a hob, a niche or a second coat over a green screed each carry their own price and add themselves on when the customer ticks the box.
Square metres of membrane, metres of bond breaker, number of penetrations. Each a line with a quantity and a rate, so the total explains itself.
Screed to falls, tile removal, making good. Save them as lines you add or leave off, and the scope argument happens before the job rather than after.
An estimate takes its number when you send it and holds onto it, so no body corporate ends up with two documents wearing the same one.
External membrane work is at the mercy of the weather, so half your week is jobs that were supposed to happen two days ago.
Push a deck to Thursday and the homeowner, the builder and your applicator all see the new time without three separate texts.
Coats, hold and handover travel together when you shift the job, so the tiler is never booked in ahead of a membrane that is not down.
Rearranging the day is not the paid part. It is just the calendar doing the thing a calendar is meant to do.
Your work disappears the moment the tiles go down, which is a good reason for the money not to wait until the end of the build.
Mark it paid on site and the receipt goes out by itself. That costs nothing on any plan and it is not going to change.
A tap on the phone before you leave, or a link the builder forwards to whoever actually settles the invoices.
A three-week tanking job can bill a deposit and a completion payment, each raised against the same booking.
There is a wet patch on the ceiling under the ensuite and it is getting bigger. Can someone look at the shower this week?
Good waterproofers are booked out, and that is exactly when someone rings about water coming through a downstairs ceiling.
Every waterproofer has a line on the map, and a booking page that does not know about it books work you then have to ring and cancel.
One app for the whole job
Add your whole team and get booking for nothing.
As you grow with us you can go Pro.
Not as a compliance tool, and be wary of anything that says it does. Acceptable Solution E3/AS2 points at the WMAI Code of Practice for internal wet-area membranes, and working to that is your job. What Bookables does is hold the sequence — prep, primer, bond breaker, coats, flood test — as steps on one booking, with your photos and notes against each, so nothing gets skipped because a builder wanted the tiler in on Monday.
External work prices on area, which is a built-in pricing driver, so your form asks for square metres and does the sums. The details that decide whether the job is any good — falls, upstand heights, flashings, drainage — go on the estimate as separate lines with quantities, so what you allowed for is on paper before anyone lifts a roll.
Not at online checkout, which was removed. Staged payments are real and they come with Pro: once the booking exists you raise a payment for the deposit and another on completion, each with its own card link. Plenty of waterproofers take the lot at sign-off instead, and recording cash or a bank transfer by hand is free on every plan.
It suits it better than one-off homeowners. A builder with six bathrooms in a townhouse block gets one estimate with six lines and six addresses, then six bookings when they sign. Each booking carries the site contact and the access notes, so your applicator turns up knowing whose site it is and who to ring when the screed is still wet.
Everything you touch daily is free: quoting, booking, the calendar, the customer list, coverage areas, your team, and recording cash or bank transfer by hand. Pro is the automation — card payments, staged payments, and slot ranking that scores your open times by the driving they add. The plan cards on this page carry the numbers.
