Who it’s for

Meeting scheduler for home service businesses

Cleanings, treatments, and quote visits on a route — booked with the drive in mind, and rebooked by email when the weather calls the day.

Where the time goes

  • One rain day and the office spends the morning calling every customer on the schedule.
  • Quote requests come in at 9pm, and by morning the caller has found someone else.
  • Recurring visits drift until the route map looks like spaghetti.
  • A missed-window visit means a locked gate, a barking dog, and a drive for nothing.

The part that runs itself

CC your scheduler

A property manager emails about getting a walkthrough on the books. CC your scheduler — it drafts the reply with real open windows, you approve, and it sends from your own email.

Booking in plain English

A homeowner types "Wednesday before noon" on your booking page and sees exactly those openings. The quote visit books itself at 9pm while you sleep.

Rebooking that runs itself

Weather kills the day. Each customer’s reply gets three open slots back, one tap to rebook — the office does not make thirty calls.

A real scheduler underneath

Event types per service with their own durations, buffers between stops, minimum notice to protect the route, and reminders that cut the locked-gate visits.

Where it fits

  • Quote visits booked from the website overnight, with the address and job details collected up front.
  • Recurring maintenance windows customers book and move themselves.
  • Inbound quote visits split round robin across two crews.
  • Seasonal surges capped with booking windows, so July cannot overbook itself in March.

How home service businesses use Buildout Schedule

  1. 1

    Make every service bookable

    A cleaning, a treatment, a quote visit — each is an event type with its own duration, buffer, and questions. The website gets one book button that covers all of them.

  2. 2

    Protect the route

    Buffers between stops, minimum notice, and capped daily windows keep the schedule drivable. What customers can book is only what the route can absorb.

  3. 3

    Reschedule by reply, not by phone bank

    When a day falls apart, customers pick new times from the reply to their own confirmation email. The office watches the calendar refill instead of dialing it full.

Common questions

What happens when weather forces a reschedule wave?

Cancel the affected bookings and each customer handles their own move: replying to the confirmation email gets them three genuine open slots, one tap to rebook. The office skips the phone bank.

Can customers book quotes after hours?

Yes — the booking page works at 9pm the same as 9am, collects the address and job details, and the visit lands inside the windows and buffers you set.

How do recurring visits work?

Customers book from your open windows and move their own visits with the reschedule link in every confirmation. Reminders go out at 24 hours and 1 hour before each visit.

Can two crews share the inbound load?

Round robin splits bookings across team members automatically, and routing forms can send different job types to different crews first.

What does it cost?

The free plan carries unlimited event types and unlimited bookings. Pro is $8 per user per month billed annually; Team, with routing forms and the admin center, is $12. First 100 users per tier keep it free forever.
