You need the customer home to let you in and the room clear, so a locked door is a wasted slot and a wasted load of kit. A reminder before the visit, and the option of a deposit, keep the day full.
Free to start with your booking page, bookings and clients. Everything else is one paid plan: £9.99/month billed yearly, or £12.99 monthly.

Hi Marcus, a reminder about your upcoming booking with Freshstep Carpet Care.

An email reminder goes out before each clean, with a link to move it inside the notice you set, and a line about clearing the room beforehand. A customer who needs to change the day does it in a tap, so a freed slot is known in time to fill it.

For a whole-house clean or a job that holds a morning, an optional card deposit means the customer has paid toward the slot, so they are in to let you start or they let you know. It is your choice which cleans ask for one.
