Carpenters: booking site visits for fitted furniture online

Fitted wardrobes, shelving and kitchens all start with a visit to see the space and take measurements. Let clients book that visit online, choosing the project type and a slot that fits around your workshop days. You arrive knowing what they want, the phone doesn't ring while you're at the saw, and the visits sit in set hours of your week.

On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description shown on your public page, and each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.

Durations and prices are examples: set your own. If a visit is free, you can leave the price empty to hide it.

The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note that reaches you in the new booking email and appears in the client's calendar file. Ask in the description for:

Keep visit slots to set afternoons or one day a week, so workshop days stay uninterrupted. Slots repeat each week on the weekdays you choose until an end date. If you cover a wide area, create one service per area and open its slots on the days you're nearby.

Once the project is agreed, book the final measuring visit yourself from your bookings list. First and last name are enough; if you enter the client's email, they get a confirmation with a calendar file.

When the piece is ready, book the fitting day the same way. A fitting slot can cover a whole day, since each slot sits within one day. Rescheduling works across services, so a fitting can move if production runs late; tell the client yourself, since Book doesn't email clients about changes.

Clients can't move or cancel online: they contact you. Book sends no reminders and doesn't take payments or deposits, so say how you invoice. Your bookings sync with Google, iPhone or Mac calendars. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
