Why UK decorators use TradeBooked

Quote visits are a necessary part of decorating work, but coordinating them takes time. Customers message on Facebook, call while you are up a ladder, or ask a neighbour to pass on their number. TradeBooked gives customers a direct link to book a quote visit - and sends you their room count, prep requirements, and colour preferences before you arrive.

Knowing upfront whether surfaces need filling and sanding, how many rooms are involved, and whether it is interior or exterior work means your quote is accurate from the first visit. You are not returning to explain the prep costs that the customer did not mention. The information is in the booking.

For confirmed jobs, customers book a start date, pay a deposit to secure it, and receive an automatic confirmation. A reminder goes out 24 hours and 1 hour before you are due. If you are running late, one tap on your phone sends a WhatsApp message to the customer - without stopping what you are doing.

Found in search - not behind a paywall

Your decorator booking page ships with local-business structured data and is submitted in our sitemap, so Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo and AI search tools (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude) can index it directly. Customers searching for a decorator in your area find you - not a marketplace lineup.

Is TradeBooked right for decorators?

A good fit if

  • You are a self-employed decorator taking your own bookings, and you want them online 24/7 without playing phone tag.
  • You want customers to send job details, and a deposit, up front, so you arrive prepared and no-shows cost the customer, not you.
  • You want your own direct booking link and page, not a listing on a lead-generation marketplace.

Probably not, if

  • You want a marketplace to find you new customers. TradeBooked manages bookings from customers who already have your link. Pair it with Checkatrade or MyBuilder if you still want lead generation.
  • You run a large multi-branch or franchise operation. TradeBooked is built for solo decorators and small teams.

The facts

  • No commission, ever. Deposits and payments go straight to your own Stripe account. TradeBooked never takes a percentage and charges no per-lead fee.
  • Flat monthly subscription from £29/month, on the Solo, Pro, or Autopilot plan.
  • 10-day free trial, no credit card required. You can be live and taking bookings the same day.
  • Your own booking page, indexed by Google, Bing and AI search, not a marketplace listing you share with competing trades.
  • Built only for self-employed UK tradespeople.
