A deck takes most of a week, a sticking door takes twenty minutes, and both want the same Thursday. Quote it, book it and get paid without juggling three apps and a notepad.
Online booking
A door that dropped, a rotten porch board, baseboard to patch after the plumber. Give the short work a real duration and customers grab the gaps.

Footings Monday, framing Tuesday and Wednesday, decking Thursday, rail Friday. One block on the calendar, so nothing else lands in the middle of it.
Learn moreFraming 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.
Carpentry books out in weeks, so once the days are gone the page stops offering them and asks instead.
If the deck took Monday through Friday, none of it shows. Your calendar decides what is offered, every time.
They leave the job, the address and a photo of the rot instead of calling the next carpenter on the list.
It is waiting in your inbox with the detail already attached, so the estimate takes four minutes, not a callback.
Photos attached. Happy to wait for a week that suits you — how far out are you booking at the moment?
A week of framing forty minutes out pays for the drive. A twenty-minute door adjustment does not. Draw the areas you cover and the site holds the line.
Mark the ZIPs on a map. Inside, people book. Outside, they get a request form and you decide.
You will drive further for a deck than for a sticking door, and your areas can say exactly that.
We never add money for a longer trip. Where you will and will not go is a boundary, not a surcharge.
Every deck call is the same: how big, what decking, does the old one come out. One estimate carrying pressure-treated, cedar and composite options.
Pro: option groups. Railing or open edge, one step or a full stair run, stained or left natural. Each carries a price difference and the total updates, so the number they accept is the number you invoice.
Square feet of decking, linear feet of railing, days of labor. The customer can see exactly what they are buying.
The deck at the house and the fence at the rental on one estimate, each line keeping its own address when it books.
Estimate numbers get set behind a confirmation and never change, so your books and the customer copy always match.
Built for your trade
Priced by square footage with the decking material as an option, booked as the run of days framing and decking take.
Old boards off, framing checked, new boards down. Quoted hourly with a materials line until you see what is under it.
Finish work priced by the room, so a whole-house trim package is one number you can send from the driveway.
Shop days and install days on separate lines, booked as two blocks instead of one date that means nothing.
The shop delivers, you hang. Book the install against the delivery date and keep both on the same job record.
Prehung units, hardware and the twenty-minute adjustment call that fills the gap between two bigger jobs.
A week of framing booked in one block, with the electrician and the drywaller reading the same schedule you are.
Stringers, treads and railing on their own lines, with the code work priced in rather than sprung on the customer.
Posts, beams and roof on separate estimate lines, so the customer can see what skipping the roof would save.
Measured, ordered and installed. Book the install for the day the units land, not the day you took the call.
Priced by the linear foot from a photo, booked into the half day it takes, paid before you pull out of the driveway.
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.
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.
The composite did not ship, the concrete is green, the electrician is still in the wall. Move the day and everything downstream moves with it.
Push the block to Thursday and every day inside it moves too. On any plan, including the free one.
Your lead opens the app on site and reads the exact same calendar you are looking at in the shop.
The change goes out on the job thread, so nobody is standing in the backyard at seven waiting on your truck.
Plenty of this money still shows up as cash or a bank transfer, and recording that by hand is free forever. Cards are the piece that comes with Pro.
Mark it paid on the job and you are done. No fee, no plan required, nothing waiting to clear.
Text the link from the driveway and the small job is paid before the miter saw is back in the truck.
Staged payments come with Pro: ask at framing and again at completion, after the job is booked, never at checkout.
Add your whole team and get booking for nothing.
As you grow with us you can go Pro.
One app for the whole job
No. This is scheduling and invoicing software, not a licensing body. Requirements vary a lot by state and city. California, for example, issues a C-5 for framing and rough carpentry and a C-6 for cabinet, millwork and finish carpentry through its contractors board, while other states leave it to the county. Booking works the same either way.
Yes, and that is the point. Book the deck across the days it actually takes and it shows on the calendar as one block, so a Wednesday request lands next week instead of on top of your framing. Drag the block and every day inside it comes along.
That is the normal path for anything bigger than a repair. Put framing, decking, railing and stairs on their own lines with quantities and rates, send it, and let the customer sit with it. Nothing hits your calendar until they accept and you pick the week.
With Pro you build option groups: pressure-treated, cedar or composite, each carrying its own price difference. The customer picks, the total updates, and you skip writing the same estimate three times.
Recording cash and bank transfer by hand is free and always will be. Card payments come with Pro, so a trim repair gets paid before you load up, and the money goes to you. We never hold your money.
Yes. He sees the jobs he is assigned to and nothing else. Your rates, your customer list and anything to do with money stay with you.
