Everything you need to run your car electrics business

Packed with powerful tools to grow your revenue, streamline your bookings, and boost client retention.

Fault Triage Booking (Symptoms, Reg, Location)

Customers choose the right job type — no-start, battery, alternator, starter, wiring fault — and your form captures reg, postcode, symptoms and warning lights. You turn vague calls into workable bookings, with notes you can trust when you’re on the road.

Diagnostic vs Repair Slot Controls

Separate time blocks for testing (drain test, charge test, scan for codes) versus fitting work. If diagnostics uncover extra repairs, you can convert the booking without wrecking the rest of the day, and customers see realistic availability.

Call-Out & Travel Rules by Postcode

Set your service area and call-out fees so you’re not driving 40 minutes for a £30 battery test. The system can show different availability and pricing by distance, keeping your mobile work profitable and your workshop diary sensible.

Deposits for Parts-Heavy Jobs

Take a deposit for alternators, starter motors, batteries and specialist modules so you’re not left holding stock when someone cancels. It’s also a gentle way to filter time-wasters who want free diagnosis and then disappear to a cheaper quote.

Automatic Job Reminders That Reduce No-Shows

Send reminders that actually matter to car electrics: “Have the locking wheel nut key ready”, “Car needs to be accessible”, “Leave the vehicle and keys with reception”. Fewer wasted trips, fewer ‘can you wait 20 minutes’ conversations.

One-Tap Calling When You’re Mid-Job

When you can’t answer because you’re upside down in a footwell, customers can still book and you can call back from the job card with all the details in front of you. No more scribbled numbers and ‘what was that Golf’s issue again?’

The challenges every car electrics faces

“No start” jobs that explode into proper diagnostics

Customers book “battery replacement” when the real issue is a drain, alternator undercharging, a starter draw issue, or a corroded earth. If your booking doesn’t capture symptoms, vehicle details and location, you waste time on arrival and risk quoting blind.

Overrunning jobs and the domino effect on the diary

A simple alternator swap can become snapped bolts, tight access, or a belt/tensioner problem. Wiring faults are worse — you can’t promise a finish time until you’ve tested properly. When a job runs long, double-bookings and angry customers follow.

Parts and variants: the wrong battery or unit kills the day

Stop-start batteries, AGM vs EFB, coding requirements, alternator amperage variants, and aftermarket alarm quirks mean you need the right info before you set off. Without reg/VIN prompts and notes, you’re back to the factors twice and the customer loses confidence.

Payment friction on diagnostics and parts-heavy repairs

Customers often expect a quick fix, then push back when you explain diagnostic time and the cost of parts. If you’re not taking deposits or confirming pricing rules upfront, you risk awkward conversations, cancellations, or unpaid invoices — especially on mobile call-outs.

Built for real car electrics workflows

A normal day in car electrics starts before you even pick up the tools. You’ve got a mix of bookings: a no-start call-out first thing, a battery replacement for a stop-start car at lunchtime, and an alternator issue booked in at 3pm. The problem is the unknowns — the no-start might be a flat battery, or it might be a drain that needs proper testing, or a starter motor that’s pulling silly current....

What we help with

  • Missing calls while you’re testing, then losing the job to someone else

  • Turning up without the right battery type (AGM/EFB) or alternator variant

Quick Setup

Get started in 3 simple steps

Your car electrics business accepting bookings in under 5 minutes

1

List Your Real-World Job Types

Add services like no-start diagnostics, battery replacement (including stop-start), alternator testing/replacement, starter motor faults, parasitic drain tests, wiring/loom fault-finding, and dash warning investigations. Set which ones are fixed-price and which are diagnostic-first.

2

Set Slot Lengths and Call-Out Rules

Create separate slots for diagnostics vs fitting work, and set your mobile radius with postcode-based travel fees. That way you’re not squeezing a wiring fault into a 30-minute gap, and you’re not doing uneconomical call-outs miles out of area.

3

Add Deposits, Messages, and Booking Questions

Switch on deposits for alternators, starter motors and batteries, then add the questions you always end up asking: reg, symptoms, warning lights, start-stop, recent battery/alternator history, and where the vehicle is parked. Share your booking link and let customers book 24/7.

FAQ

Questions? Answers.

Everything you need to know about our car electrics booking system.

Can I keep emergency no-start call-outs separate from workshop bookings?

Yes. You can create specific “no-start / urgent” slots and limit how many can be taken per day, so you don’t end up with a diary full of call-outs and no time for booked-in repairs. You can also add call-out fees by postcode. That keeps emergencies profitable without wrecking the rest of the schedule.

What car electrics jobs can customers book online without ringing first?

The common ones are battery replacement (including stop-start), alternator testing, starter motor symptoms, parasitic drain tests, and warning light investigations. You can also allow “wiring fault diagnostics” but keep it as a diagnostic slot rather than a fixed repair time. The booking questions help you decide what to bring and how long to allow.

When should I take payment for diagnostics and parts?

Most auto electricians take payment for diagnostics on completion, and a deposit upfront for parts-heavy jobs like alternators, starter motors and batteries. The system lets you take deposits at booking and the balance when the job is finished. That avoids ordering parts on a maybe and reduces last-minute cancellations.

Does seasonality really affect car electrical work in the UK?

Absolutely. Cold weather exposes weak batteries, poor connections and slow cranking, so you get a spike in no-start and battery jobs. Winter also brings more charging issues to the surface as loads increase (lights, heaters, demisters). The booking setup lets you protect time for urgent work during those peaks.

Can I manage more than one van or technician on the same system?

Yes. You can run multiple diaries so each technician has their own availability, or you can pool certain job types depending on who’s best with diagnostics or fitting. That’s useful when one person is mobile and another is workshop-based. It also helps avoid two people being booked for the same job.

How does the system help turn quotes into confirmed bookings?

You can send a booking link straight from the enquiry, with the job type and slot length already matched to the fault. Customers can pick a time and pay a deposit if required, which reduces the “I’ll let you know” drop-off. It’s especially helpful when they’re ringing around comparing availability.

What customer messages can I send that actually reduce problems on the day?

You can automate confirmations and reminders that cover the usual issues: where the vehicle is parked, ensuring access to the boot/bonnet, having keys available, and letting you know about trackers/aftermarket alarms. You can also remind them that diagnostics is chargeable even if it turns out to be a wiring fault. Clear expectations reduce arguments and wasted time.

Can I vary pricing for different vehicles and awkward jobs?

Yes. You can set starting prices for common jobs and keep diagnostic work as a fixed diagnostic fee with further work quoted after testing. You can also add options for stop-start batteries, call-out distance, or out-of-hours work. That way you’re not forced into one price that doesn’t fit every vehicle.

Why iBookFast for your car electrics business?

Car electrics customers don’t ring with tidy, workshop-friendly problems. They ring because the car won’t start on the drive, the battery light’s come on mid-journey, the central locking’s gone mad, or a dash warning is ruining their week. They want a quick answer and a time slot, and if you miss the call they’ll book whoever replies first. The reality for most UK car electrics businesses is you’...
