How to set up online booking for your plumbing business
Stop missing calls while you're on a job. Let customers book online.
Step 1: Create your Skhedio account
Sign up with your business name and service area.
Step 2: Add your services
Create services for different job types:
- General Plumbing Call
- Blocked Drain
- Leaking Tap/Pipe
- Hot Water Repair
- Emergency Plumbing
Set call-out fees and hourly rates.
Step 3: Charge call-out fees
Require a deposit when customers book. This confirms they're serious.

Step 5: Enable on-site payments
Accept card payments when the job is done. Send receipts automatically.
