Everything you need to run your mobile mechanic business

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

Call-Out Fee & Travel Zone Rules

Set your call-out fee, define your coverage by postcode, and add travel charges for outer areas. Customers see pricing expectations upfront, so you stop wasting time on enquiries from miles outside your patch.

Emergency Slot Control for Breakdowns

Keep protected slots for “won’t start”, flat batteries, and roadside repairs. When your day’s already full, the system can limit urgent bookings or push them to the next available window instead of overbooking you.

Job-Type Booking That Filters Time Needed

Let customers choose the right job: battery replacement, brakes, diagnostics, service, starter motor, or alternator. Each service can have its own time allowance, so a quick scan doesn’t block out half your afternoon.

Arrival Windows and Automatic ETA Messages

Send confirmations, “on my way” texts, and realistic arrival windows. It reduces the constant “where are you?” calls while you’re under a bonnet, and it makes you look organised even on chaotic days.

On-Site Card Payments and Deposits

Take payment at the kerbside, on the driveway, or at the customer’s workplace. Use deposits for bigger jobs like clutches or timing belts, so you’re not buying parts out of your own pocket for a customer who disappears.

Overrun Buffer and Rebooking in Two Clicks

Add buffers between jobs to account for seized bolts, snapped clips, and test drives. If a job runs over, rebook the next customer with a clear message rather than a messy chain of missed calls.

The challenges every mobile mechanic faces

Unpredictable Job Lengths (and the Domino Effect)

A simple alternator belt becomes a seized tensioner. A misfire turns into coil packs plus plugs. When one job overruns, the rest of the day collapses: late arrivals, apologising on the phone, and customers cancelling because you couldn’t give a realistic ETA.

Emergency Call-Outs vs Booked Work

Breakdowns pay well, but they land at the worst times. If you accept every urgent call, you annoy your booked customers. If you refuse, you lose work to the next mechanic who answers. You need controlled “urgent slots” without wrecking your diary.

Travel Time, Postcodes, and Parts Runs

Your real schedule is built around geography and parts availability, not just time. Two jobs 20 miles apart can’t sit back-to-back. Add a quick run to the factors and your ‘free hour’ disappears. Standard calendars don’t price or plan for travel.

Getting Paid on Site (Without Awkwardness)

Customers often expect to pay when the car starts and drives again. If you’re invoicing after, you’re chasing money in the evening. If you take cash, you’re counting notes in the rain. You need simple on-site card payments and clear deposits for bigger jobs.

Built for real mobile mechanic workflows

A normal day starts before you’ve even turned the van key. You’ve got overnight messages: someone needs a battery fitted at 8am, another wants a diagnostic because the engine light’s on, and a regular customer wants a service at their workplace car park. Then the first curveball hits — a breakdown call at 7:30 from a supermarket car park. With a mobile mechanic booking system, your morning isn’t...

Quick Setup

Get started in 3 simple steps

Your mobile mechanic business accepting bookings in under 5 minutes

1

List Your Real Mobile Services (Not Generic ‘Repairs’)

Add the jobs you actually do on the road: battery replacement, diagnostics, brakes, alternators, starter motors, servicing, pre-purchase inspections, and breakdown call-outs. Set different time allowances and whether a deposit is needed for parts-led work.

2

Set Your Coverage Area, Call-Out Fee, and Travel Charges

Define the postcodes you cover and what you charge for inner vs outer areas. If you won’t go into city centres at certain times or you charge extra for long-distance call-outs, bake that into your booking rules so you’re not arguing on the phone.

3

Share Your Booking Link and Start Taking Proper Jobs

Put your link on Google Business Profile, Facebook, and your van signage QR code. Customers can book 24/7, choose the right job type, and receive confirmations and updates without you stopping work to answer messages.

FAQ

Questions? Answers.

Everything you need to know about our mobile mechanic booking system.

Try it free
How does it handle emergency breakdown call-outs without wrecking my diary?

You can keep specific emergency slots each day for breakdowns like flat batteries, no-crank issues, or roadside repairs. Once those slots are filled, the system can stop taking urgent bookings or push them to the next available window. That way you can still do profitable call-outs without constantly letting down your booked customers.

What mobile mechanic job types can customers book online?

You can offer separate bookings for battery replacement, diagnostics/OBD scans, servicing, brakes, alternators, starter motors, and pre-purchase inspections. Each job can have its own duration, pricing guidance, and questions (reg, symptoms, location). For unknown faults, you can use a “diagnostic first” booking rather than promising a fixed-price repair.

When do I take payment — upfront, deposit, or on completion?

Most mobile mechanics take payment on completion for straightforward jobs, and a deposit for anything that needs parts ordering. You can set rules so deposits apply to clutches, timing belts, or alternators, while diagnostics or battery fits are pay-on-the-day. Customers get clear payment expectations before you set off.

Does seasonal demand affect how I should set up bookings?

Yes — cold weather brings battery failures, starting issues, and glow plug problems, while summer often brings overheating and longer-trip breakdowns. You can adjust availability by season, add extra emergency slots during winter, and reduce long jobs on days you know breakdowns spike. It stops your calendar being unrealistic when the weather turns.

Can I manage multiple vans or a small team of mechanics?

If you’ve got more than one mechanic, you can run separate schedules so jobs go to the right person and you don’t accidentally send two vans to the same customer. You can also set different service areas or skills (for example, one tech focuses on diagnostics while another handles servicing and brakes). Customers book once and the right diary gets updated.

How does it help turn quotes into confirmed bookings?

Instead of endless back-and-forth messages, you can send a booking link that matches the job type and your next available slots. Customers can commit there and then, and you can require a deposit for parts-led work so they’re less likely to shop around. It reduces the “I’ll let you know” dead ends.

How are customers kept updated if I’m running late or stuck on a job?

Automatic messages can confirm the booking, send reminders, and notify customers when you’re on the way. If a job overruns, you can update the next booking and the customer gets a clear new arrival window. That cuts down the constant chasing calls while you’re working.

Can I vary pricing for different vehicles and awkward jobs?

Yes — you can set starting prices, call-out fees, and notes that explain common variables like vehicle access, seized fasteners, or parts differences. You can also offer “from” pricing for diagnostics and set fixed prices for straightforward jobs like battery fitting. It keeps pricing honest without underquoting work that’s unpredictable.

Why iBookFast for your mobile mechanic business?

Mobile mechanic work in the UK is a mix of planned maintenance and pure chaos. One week you’re doing services, pads and discs, and pre-purchase inspections on driveways. The next week it’s a run of “won’t start” calls after a cold snap, or a string of overheating issues when the weather turns and people finally do longer motorway runs. Customers don’t care that you’re mid-job — they expect answers...
