Everything you need to run your smart home business

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

Survey Slots vs Install Blocks

Offer a quick home automation survey as a separate booking type, then convert it into a proper installation block with the right time allowance for pairing, firmware updates, and handover.

Device & Ecosystem Intake

Collect the important details at booking: Alexa/Google/HomeKit, device brands, number of rooms, existing hubs, Wi‑Fi setup, and whether they need a new mesh network.

Deposit & On-the-Day Payment Options

Take deposits for kit-heavy jobs (thermostats, smart switches, hubs) and let customers pay the balance after commissioning and walkthrough, not weeks later via chased invoices.

Travel-Aware Booking for Call-outs

Set your service area, add travel buffers, and avoid booking a quick Wi‑Fi dropout fix on the other side of town right before a full lighting retrofit.

Automated Reminders with Access Prompts

Send reminders that actually matter: “Please have app logins ready”, “Ensure someone’s home for router access”, “Confirm boiler make/model for thermostat upgrades”.

Team & Van Scheduling

If you’ve got more than one installer, assign bookings by skillset (networking vs lighting vs heating controls), keep diaries separate, and avoid two people turning up to the same job.

The challenges every smart home faces

Survey-first jobs and unknowns on site

A lot of smart home installs can’t be quoted properly until you’ve seen the router location, signal strength, wiring, and what ecosystem the client is using (Alexa, Google Home, HomeKit). Without a proper survey slot, you end up guessing durations and prices, then overrunning and upsetting the next booking.

Customer-supplied kit and compatibility headaches

Clients often buy random devices online and assume they’ll “just work together”. You arrive to find mixed brands, no hub, outdated firmware, and no login details. Booking needs to capture device lists, ecosystems, and access requirements up front so you’re not stuck troubleshooting for free.

Wi‑Fi and network issues disguised as ‘device faults’

Half of “my smart lights keep dropping off” is really a network problem: weak signal, poor channel selection, ISP router limitations, or a mesh system placed badly. If you can’t triage properly at booking, you waste travel time on jobs that need a different slot length and different pricing.

Kit costs, deposits, and last-minute cancellations

Smart home work often involves ordering switches, hubs, thermostats, relays, or a mesh kit in advance. When customers cancel late, you’re left holding stock and time. You need deposits, clear booking terms, and automated reminders so your diary isn’t full of maybes.

Built for real smart home workflows

Most mornings start with messages that came in overnight: “Can you fit a smart thermostat this week?”, “My Google Home won’t control the lights”, “We’ve moved in and want the whole house set up.” If you’re relying on missed calls and WhatsApp, you lose half the detail and spend the first hour playing phone tag. With the booking system, the day begins with a tidy list of today’s jobs showing booki...

FAQ

Questions? Answers.

Everything you need to know about our smart home booking system.

Try it free
Can I handle urgent smart home call-outs like ‘everything’s offline’?

Yes. You can offer an urgent call-out booking type with same-day slots and a clear minimum charge. The form can ask what changed (new router, ISP switch, power cut) so you arrive prepared. You can also cap urgent slots so they don’t wipe out your full-day installs.

What job types does the system work best for in smart home?

It’s designed for mixed work: quick setups (Alexa/Google Home), smart thermostat installs, smart lighting and switch upgrades, camera/doorbell installs, and full home automation projects. You can separate survey bookings from installation bookings. Each job type can have its own duration, price structure, and questions.

When do I take payment for smart home installs — before or after the job?

Most installers take a deposit for jobs involving ordered kit or long time blocks, then take the balance once everything is commissioned and demonstrated. The system lets you set deposit amounts per job type. That way you’re covered for hardware costs without forcing full payment before the client sees it working.

Does smart home work have seasonal peaks in the UK?

It does. Thermostat and heating-control work typically rises in autumn and winter, while gift-driven device installs spike around Black Friday and Christmas. January often brings network and integration issues after broadband changes. Having online booking helps you control those peaks with the right slot types and lead times.

Can I manage multiple installers or vans?

Yes. You can run separate diaries for each installer and route bookings to the right person based on skillset or area. That’s useful when one person specialises in networking and another in lighting/heating controls. It also reduces double-bookings when you’re busy and jobs are coming in fast.

How does it help turn quotes into confirmed bookings?

After a survey, you can send a booking link for the recommended install package, with the correct time block and deposit requirement already set. Customers can choose a date there and then instead of “getting back to you”. It stops good quotes dying in message threads while they shop around.

What customer communication can I automate without sounding robotic?

You can send practical messages that reduce friction: reminders to have app logins ready, confirm someone will be home, and prompt them to note down broadband details if it’s a connectivity job. You can also send arrival updates and post-job follow-ups. It keeps things professional without you typing the same messages every day.

Can I offer flexible pricing for different smart home scenarios?

Yes. You can set fixed prices for common jobs (thermostat swap, basic voice assistant setup) and use tiered options for bigger work (per room lighting, per camera, whole-home packages). You can also add a call-out fee for troubleshooting that covers the first hour. That way pricing matches the reality of quick wins versus deep fault-finding.

Why iBookFast for your smart home business?

Smart home is a strange mix of electrical, IT support, and customer training. The booking problems are different too. A boiler service is a boiler service; a “smart home install” could be anything from swapping a thermostat to integrating lighting, heating, and speakers across three floors with flaky Wi‑Fi and a client who’s locked out of their Apple ID. In the UK, demand comes in waves. You’ll s...
