Handyman Booking Software for Small Jobs That Add Up
Sell your time by the hour or the half day, let customers list what needs doing, and take a deposit so the booking sticks. Less quoting for free, more paid work.
Try the Handyman booking widget
This is exactly what your clients see — pick a service, get an instant quote, and book in seconds.
Embed on Your Site
Add the widget to your website so neighbours can book an hour or a half day in a few taps.
Share a Booking Link
Share your booking link in local Facebook groups, on Nextdoor and by text to repeat customers.
Free Microsite
Your free microsite shows what you do, what you charge and what past customers said.
Auto-Collect Reviews
Each finished job prompts a review request, with before-and-after photos of the work.
Sound Familiar?
These are the problems that cost you time, money, and clients every week.
You spend evenings replying to messages asking "how much to hang a door?"
Your prices are on the booking page. The message you send back is a link, and the next thing you hear is a confirmed booking.
A one-hour job turns out to be five jobs and you lose the rest of the afternoon.
The customer lists everything at booking and chooses a slot long enough to do it, at a price that reflects the time.
Good customers would book you again, but they have lost your number.
Every customer is saved with their job history, and your booking link works for the next job as well as the first.
Why Handyman Businesses Choose BookingMachine
Sell Time, Not Free Quotes
Most handyman work does not need a quote. Offer an hour, a half day or a full day at a set price and let the customer fill it with their list.
The Job List Before You Arrive
Ask what needs doing at booking, so you turn up with the right tools and fixings and nothing takes you by surprise.
A Deposit Makes It Real
A small deposit separates the customers who mean it from the ones collecting prices. The slot they booked is the slot you get paid for.
Everything You Need to Run Your Handyman Business
Hourly, Half-Day and Day Rates
Set a price for each block of time, with a minimum booking so a ten-minute job still covers the trip.
Fixed-Price Jobs
Flat-pack assembly, TV mounting, gutter clearing: price the common jobs per item so customers can add them up themselves.
Job Details at Booking
Add your own questions to the booking form and get the list of tasks, access notes and parking sorted in advance.
Travel Charges
Price in the drive for jobs further out, so distance never eats the margin on a small job.
Repeat Customers
Landlords and regulars can be set up on a recurring visit, and every customer has a record of what you did last time.
Invoice When the Job Is Done
Mark the job complete, add any materials, and send the invoice the same day.
Smart Pricing That Fits Your Business
A customer picks "Half Day" on a Saturday, asks you to collect the materials, and lists six small jobs. The widget shows $273 and takes the deposit.

Handyman Booking Software FAQ
Can customers book me by the hour?
Yes. Create a service for each block of time you sell, such as one hour, a half day and a full day, each with its own price and duration.
How do I find out what the job is before I turn up?
Add a question to the booking form asking the customer to list what needs doing. Their answer arrives with the booking, along with the address and any access notes.
Can I charge for collecting materials?
Yes. Add it as an option that raises the price, and add the cost of the materials themselves to the invoice when the job is complete.
Do I need a website to use it?
No. You get a booking link and a hosted microsite to share on social media, in local groups and by text. If you do have a website, the widget embeds on it.
Can I take a deposit?
Yes. Set a deposit percentage and it is collected by card at booking through Stripe, with the balance due when the work is done. Online payments are part of the paid plans.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The free plan covers a limited number of bookings each month, with quotes, invoices and a hosted booking page. Online payments and deposits are on the paid plans. The pricing page has the current limits.
