Bookings
Booking software for plumbers
Customers book a visit online, you confirm from your phone, reminder emails go out on their own and you invoice from the booking in one click.
Free plan, no card needed. Or book a demo.
Fewer missed calls, more booked jobs
When you are on a job, you cannot answer the phone. Customers who cannot reach you call the next plumber. A booking link lets them book a visit while you work.
With startbuddi, customers pick a visit type and a slot, describe the problem and can pay a call-out fee. You confirm from your phone, a reminder email goes out before the visit and the invoice is generated from the booking.
- Call-out, inspection and repair visits as services.
- Photos and a description of the problem in the booking.
- An optional call-out fee through Paystack or Stripe.
- Invoices generated from the booking.
See startbuddi for plumbing businesses for more.
