Built for Tradespeople Businesses

Job Booking and Scheduling Software for Tradespeople

Customers get a price, pick a slot and pay a deposit while you are on the tools. The job lands in your diary with the address, the details and the money already sorted.

Try the Tradespeople booking widget

This is exactly what your clients see — pick a service, get an instant quote, and book in seconds.

Embed on Your Site

Put the booking widget on your website so customers can price and book a job at any hour.

Share a Booking Link

Send your booking link by text or WhatsApp instead of going back and forth on dates.

Free Microsite

No website? Your free microsite lists your services, prices and reviews, with booking built in.

Auto-Collect Reviews

When a job is marked complete, the customer is asked for a review with photos of the finished work.

Sound Familiar?

These are the problems that cost you time, money, and clients every week.

You miss calls while you are working, and the customer rings the next name on the list.

Your booking page answers for you. They see the price, choose a time and book while you carry on with the job in front of you.

You drive across town and nobody is in.

A deposit at booking and an automatic reminder before the visit cut down wasted trips, and the deposit covers your time when one still happens.

Quotes, bookings and invoices live in three different places.

A quote becomes a booking and a booking becomes an invoice, with the customer and job details carried through each step.

Core advantages

Why Tradespeople Businesses Choose BookingMachine

A Price Without the Phone Call

Set your call-out fee, hourly and day rates, and what you charge for evenings and weekends. Customers see the price for their job and book it, without waiting for you to ring back.

Deposits That Stop Wasted Trips

Take a deposit when the job is booked. A customer who has paid is at home when you arrive, and a cancelled job no longer costs you the whole slot.

One Diary for Every Job

Bookings go straight into your schedule and sync with Google Calendar. No double bookings, and no jobs written on the back of a receipt.

Features

Everything You Need to Run Your Tradespeople Business

Call-Out, Hourly and Day Rates

Price jobs the way your trade does: a fixed call-out fee, time on site, or a set price per job. Mix them across your services.

Evening and Weekend Rates

Charge more for out-of-hours work automatically. The price changes with the slot the customer picks.

Travel-Based Pricing

Add a charge for jobs outside your usual area, so a long drive is priced in before you set off.

Quotes and Invoices

Send a branded quote for larger jobs, turn it into a booking when it is accepted, and invoice on completion.

Team Scheduling

Add the people who work with you, set their hours, and have jobs assigned to whoever is free.

Reviews With Photos

Customers are asked for a review when the job is done and can attach photos. Show them on your website and booking page.

Pricing engine

Smart Pricing That Fits Your Business

A landlord picks "Half-Day Booking" for a Saturday at a rental property. The widget applies your weekend rate, shows $270, and takes the deposit you have set.

Tradespeople Booking Software FAQ

Which trades is BookingMachine suited to?

Any trade where a customer books a visit or a job: plumbers, electricians, handymen, heating engineers, decorators, locksmiths, carpenters, roofers and similar. If you sell your time or a priced job, it fits.

Can customers book a job without me quoting first?

Yes, for work you can price up front, such as a call-out, a half day or a standard job. For work that needs measuring, offer a site visit as a bookable service and send a quote afterwards.

Can I take a deposit when a job is booked?

Yes. Set a deposit percentage and it is collected by card at booking through Stripe. The balance can be charged when the job is complete. Online payments are part of the paid plans.

Do I need a website?

No. You get a booking link and a hosted microsite you can share by text, on social media or on your Google Business Profile. If you have a website, the widget embeds on it with one line of code.

Is this a full field service management system?

It covers the front of the job: quoting, booking, scheduling, payment, invoicing and reviews. It does not do stock control, vehicle tracking or purchase orders. For a sole trader or a small team, that is usually the part that wins or loses the work.

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.
