Booking system for trades
The booking system for gardeners and landscapers
You are behind a hedge trimmer with ear defenders on. You never even hear the phone, and the regular round enquiry is gone.
Sound familiar?
Why gardeners and landscapers lose work to the phone.
A regular fortnightly garden is hundreds of pounds a year, every year. Missing the first call loses you the whole recurring round, not one visit.
You cannot hear the phone over the kit
Mowers, trimmers and chippers drown out every call. subba answers so the missed ring does not cost you a whole new maintenance round.
Regular rounds are worth chasing
A fortnightly garden is recurring money. subba books the first visit and gets them on the schedule instead of it fizzling out in voicemail.
Spring flood you cannot answer
The first sunny week and everyone wants their garden sorted at once. subba catches the whole surge instead of just the calls you happen to be near the phone for.
How subba helps
An online diary that fills itself.
Bookings that land in your diary
Customers pick a real free slot and book themselves in. No back and forth, no double bookings, it is in your calendar the moment they confirm.
Take the payment or a deposit
Collect a deposit or the full amount into your own Stripe at the point of booking. Fewer no-shows, and the money is yours the same day.
An AI receptionist on top
And when someone rings or messages instead of booking online, subba answers as a gardener, day and night, and books them in too. One system, every enquiry caught.
Reminders that cut no-shows
Automatic reminders by text and email before every appointment, with easy rescheduling, so your slots stay filled and your day runs to plan.
Your services, online
Customers pick, book and pay.
subba shows your real services and prices, offers only your genuine free slots, and books straight into your diary. Here is how a gardener setup might look.
Most services take a message. subba books the job.
A call answering service jots down a name and number and hands it back to you to chase. subba checks your diary, books the appointment, takes the deposit and sends the confirmation, all before you have put your tools down. For gardeners and landscapers, that is the difference between a lead and a booked job.
Questions
Gardener FAQs.
Can it set up recurring visits, not just one booking?
Yes. subba books the first visit and can put the customer on a regular fortnightly or monthly slot, so you build a round instead of chasing one-offs.
Will it handle the spring rush?
That is when it pays for itself. Every "can you sort my garden" call in the first warm week gets answered and booked, not lost to the noise of your strimmer.
How quickly can I get set up?
If you already have a website, subba plugs in with a one-line change and you can be live the same day. If you need a website, our Managed plan builds you a booking site and sets up your domain, usually live in about 5 working days.
What does it cost?
Plans start at £9.99 a month and every plan takes unlimited bookings. You only pay more as your enquiry volume grows. There is no setup fee unless you want us to build your website too, and you can cancel anytime.
