Your walkthrough books itself off your page, and the sand day, the coat days and the cure sit on the calendar as one job, so nobody walks the floor before it is ready.

A maintenance coat on red oak is the same job every time, so give it a price and let it grab the next opening. Full refinishes come in as quote requests.

Tenants out Friday, movers Thursday, then closing pushes a week. Drag the job and the sand day, both coat days and the cure move with it.
Learn moreThat window was never yours. Tenants leave Friday, movers come Thursday, and then closing slides a week and takes your three days with it.
Move the job on the calendar and it moves for your crew and your customer at once. Nothing to retype, nothing to re-send.
Sand, coat, coat, cure. A four day floor moves as four days, so the second coat never lands the morning before the first.
Read the month and you know which weeks are already spoken for before you promise a realtor anything.
Nobody wants one number. They want to know what waterborne buys them over oil-modified, and what water popping and a stain does to the color.
Named finishes side by side on one estimate, with the one you would actually put down marked as recommended, is a Pro feature.
Your estimate opens with the square footage already in it, so you fix the one line that is wrong instead of building the whole document again.
Board replacement, staple pulling, water popping and the stairs each carry their own number, so the total explains itself.
A house and the unit over the garage are two addresses on one estimate, and every line stays with the one it belongs to.
Listing season fills a calendar fast. A page with nothing open on it sends a seller to the next contractor. One that says when you are free keeps them.
Someone refinishing before the furniture arrives will happily wait two weeks. They just want to be told.
The rooms, the species and a photo of the boards come in as a thread you pick up once the current house is done.
When a closing slips and a run frees up, the people already waiting are the first ones you call.
Three bedrooms, hall and stairs, boards are under old carpet. The house is empty from the 12th and the photos are the week after. How far out are you?
Built for your trade
Booked as a run of days instead of one visit, with the square footage on the job so the big machine, the edger and enough finish load up first.
A set price on your booking page, grabbing the next real opening in your week while you are still running the belt at the last house.
Quoted after the walkthrough, with staple pulling, tack strip removal and the boards nobody can vouch for on their own lines.
Sold as the top of three finishes on one estimate, so the customer picks it against the others instead of calling back about price.
The board count, the weave-in labor and the blend all get their own lines, so the number holds up when it is read next to a cheaper bid.
Priced apart from the main floor, because a flight is a day on your knees and it should never disappear into a square foot rate.
Booked in the hours the HOA allows, against the buildings you actually cover, so nothing books itself into a Sunday morning.
Scheduled overnight between services, with the manager holding every location in the group on one customer record.
The adjuster wants a scope and a figure. The estimate keeps the boards, the sanding and the finish separate so it reads line by line.
A short paid visit that books around the closing date and turns into the estimate your realtor forwards to the seller that afternoon.
A maintenance coat on one room is the same job every time, so it can sit on your page with a figure on it and take the next real gap. A full sand back never can, and should not pretend to.
Every inspection ends in a document pinned to somebody else's sale, and once that sale is done the number is stale whether or not it was ever read. Give it an expiry and it lapses by itself, so you are re-quoting the boards rather than honouring last season's rate.
A drum sander, an edger, a buffer and forty gallons of finish in the truck. The jobs that hurt are the ones two hours past where you meant to stop.
Name the areas and your booking page only offers slots inside them, so nothing outside sneaks onto the calendar.
Take a full refinish anywhere in the metro but keep recoats close to home. Areas can differ by service.
There is no surcharge for a longer drive here and we will not pretend there is. Set the area, or price the job higher.
Last coat goes down, machines come out, and the house stays closed for a week. Your money should not have to wait for the furniture.
Record what came in and the job closes. That costs nothing on any plan and it always will.
A pay link on the booking, tapped by a seller who is standing somewhere else entirely.
A whole-house refinish can bill in stages with their own due dates, set after the booking. That part is Pro.
A sanded floor is done days before it can be used, and the only place that gap is written down is the address. The visit that priced it, the estimate they accepted, the days of machines, the coat that went on last with the date it can take weight again, and the payment. Read back two years later when they ring about a scuff.

As you grow with us you can go Pro.
Yes. The walkthrough sits on your booking page against your real availability, so a realtor with photos scheduled Wednesday can grab Monday morning without calling you. The refinish itself gets estimated after that visit, never off a phone call.
Build one estimate with the sanding as the base and the finishes as named options your customer chooses between, with one marked recommended. They accept online and the version they accepted becomes the job. Options on an estimate come with Pro.
Yes, and as real bookings rather than empty calendar. The sand day, each coat day and the cure sit there as one job, so nobody gets offered the Thursday when the second coat goes down that morning.
Drag the job to the new dates and it moves for your crew and your customer at the same time, keeping its order, so the coats never land before the sanding. That works on the free plan.
No. The National Wood Flooring Association runs a Certified Professional program and plenty of good refinishers hold it, but Bookables is booking and estimating software and asks you for nothing of the kind.
Yes. One contact, every listing they send you, and the full history under each address, so the fifth referral gets estimated with everything you learned on the first four in front of you.
