A mobile hose fitter crimping a hose beside a stopped machine in the UK

Booking software for mobile hydraulic hose repair in the UK.

A 360 is sat there not digging and somebody is paying for it by the hour. Take the callout at four in the morning, from a compound rather than an address, and give an hour rather than a promise.

What is still stopped, and where it has got to.

A hose van does not run a diary, it runs a list of machines that are not working. Called in, rolling, on site, going again: the stage is what the contractor rings to ask about, so it is the first thing the page shows.

Pro

The van that commits to an hour wins.

Pro scores your open slots by the driving each one adds, so the hour you commit to at four in the morning is one you can reasonably keep.

  • Ranked by the running they add

    Open slots come back in order of how much extra driving each one puts on the van, with the least worst marked, rather than as a flat list.

  • Your hours, the night ones included

    Availability is what you set. Run a twenty four hour phone and the page offers night slots; if you do not, it says so rather than guessing.

  • Sized to the job being booked

    A roadside tipper hose and a full fleet changeout are not the same length, so the slot offered is the length of the one they picked.

A new job being assigned, with three open slots ranked by how much travel each one adds to the day. The slot that adds the least is marked best.

The address is a compound, not a postcode.

A good deal of your work has no usable postcode. Take the gate and the landmark, and keep the site under the customer so the next call knows the way.

  • A gate and a landmark, not a postcode

    Nearest postcode plus what actually gets you there: which entrance, which compound, who holds the key and whether the track takes a van.

  • The site sits under the customer

    One hirer, six sites. Each keeps its own access and induction notes rather than everything living in one long note on the account.

  • Where you will drive, and where you will not

    Set the areas you cover. Anything beyond them is turned away on the page rather than appearing in the run and being unpicked later.

Booked at twenty past two, from a gate.

No callback, no haggling over a rate at that hour. A time, a machine and directions somebody can actually follow in the dark.

The machine remembers what you made up.

Hose spec, fitting type and pressure rating sit against that unit, so the next call about it is a two-minute stock check instead of a guess.

Who is on the phone tonight.

A second van is only worth having if the callout reaches whoever is actually on. Each fitter has their own hours, and the board honours them.

Built for your trade

Built for the machines that actually stop

A 360 stopped on a groundworks site

The most time-critical work you do, and the reason the van carries stock. Booked at a genuine next slot rather than promised a callback.

Telehandler in a grain store or on a farm

Awkward to reach and urgent in season. The track, the gate and who holds the key all sit on the job rather than in a text.

Tipper lorry ram or sheeting gear, roadside

Often needing shifting before it can be worked on properly. The haulier stays one customer with each vehicle held under it.

Plant hire fleet callouts

A hirer cannot let a machine sit on a site earning nothing. Their depots, their fleet numbers and every hose you have made on one card.

Combine or forage harvester in harvest

A day lost is a crop at risk. The field is not a postcode, so the landmark and the gate go on the booking instead.

Planned hose replacement at a service

The work that pays properly. A fleet through the yard with hoses replaced before they fail, booked ahead and quoted as a block.

MEWP and scissor lift hydraulics

Short jobs on a hire yard that fill the gaps between failures, priced by the hour with the callout on its own line.

Quarry loader and fixed plant hoses

The site keeps its own access and induction notes, so a second stoppage there does not begin with a call about getting through the gate.

Muck spreader and slurry gear

Seasonal, filthy and time-bound. Held under the farm with its own history rather than mixed in with the hire fleet work.

A burst hose on a 360 excavator.

Three ways to price the same stoppage: get it digging again, do the pair that always go together, or go through the machine at the next service.

  • Priced off what you actually crimped

    Hose length, fitting type and pressure rating are their own lines, so a queried figure traces back to the metre it came from.

  • Digging again, or done properly

    The failed hose alone beside the pair that always go together, so the hirer chooses while the machine is still stood there.

  • Sent from the compound, not the unit

    The quote leaves your phone before you are back on the road, which tends to be before the site has finished its incident report.

  • Extras priced as options · Pro

    Out-of-hours loading, a longer hose run, ORFS instead of BSP, a second hose off the same block. Ticking one moves the quoted total rather than requiring a re-type. Priced options come with Pro.

A civil contractor account, itemised and ready to send.

You are already under another machine.

With nothing left tonight the page takes the job regardless, so the site is talking to you rather than working down its list of vans.

  • The callout arrives as a thread

    Machine, site, what let go and a photograph of the fitting in one place, so you can judge the urgency without ringing back from under a 360.

  • Answered from the job, not your texts

    Reply from the record. What you told the site manager at midnight is still there when the office queries it a fortnight later.

  • Slotted the moment one frees

    A changeout that finishes early is a gap you fill from the same screen, and the confirmation sees itself out without your help.

A booking request inside a message thread, answered with accept or decline without leaving the conversation.

Excavator has dumped its oil off the boom line and we are stopped in the pit. Anything at all tonight?

The operator rings, the office settles.

Cash and transfers you record by hand cost nothing on any plan. Cards come with Pro, and nothing sits in a Bookables account on the way through.

  • Cash and transfer are free

    Mark the job paid when the transfer lands. That costs nothing on any plan and it is not quietly moving behind a paywall later.

  • Cards come with Pro

    The payment request is emailed to the account contact on the file, which is seldom the person who rang you from the cab at four.

  • The account carries the history

    Every callout for that hirer sits on one card, so an invoice queried in November has the machine and the night it came from beneath it.

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 mobile hydraulic hose repair business.

Scheduling

A four in the morning failure, a planned changeout at nine and a tipper on the way back all sit on one board rather than on a whiteboard in the unit.

Bookings

One record per stoppage: which machine, which site, what let go, what you crimped there and what came off the shelf in the van.

Online booking

A site books the callout from your page at your genuine next slot, out of hours included, instead of ringing three vans and waiting on one.

Inbox

Photographs of the failed fitting, the directions in and every message about that machine sit on the job rather than across two phones.

Estimates

Quote the way you crimp: hose length, fitting type, pressure rating and the out-of-hours loading as separate lines under one total.

Customers

Hirers and groundworkers come back with the next machine. Their depots, their fleet numbers and every callout you have run on one card.

Territories

Set the ground you cover and the ground you do not. A failure two counties away ought not to book itself quietly into Tuesday morning.

Team

Add each fitter and the van they run, note who is on the night phone, and give the office the job list without opening the money screens.

Payments

Cash and bank transfer you record by hand are free on any plan. Card payments come with Pro, and the money lands in your own account.

Common questions.

If those are hours you work, yes. Availability is yours to set and can run through the night, so the page offers callouts you will genuinely turn out for rather than a nine to five nobody in this trade keeps.

Take the nearest postcode you can get and put the gate, the pin and the landmark on the job. The site is kept under the contractor, so the next callout there begins with the way in already written down.

They can. Each machine is its own record under the customer with its own history, so the hose length, fitting type and pressure rating from last time are there when it goes again.

It can. The payment request is emailed to the account contact you nominate, which is seldom the person stood next to the machine, so nothing rests on a docket surviving the cab.

Set the areas you cover and leave the rest out. Anything beyond them is turned away on the page rather than appearing in your run at midnight and being unpicked by telephone.

Yes. A hire fleet gone through before the season sits on the same board as tonight’s failure, quoted as one job with a line per machine, so the planned work does not permanently lose to the urgent.
