Client & Job Management
Keep every customer, job, and note in one place. Repeat customers are easy to rebook because their full history is right there when they call.

Build a simple quote in under a minute and text or email it for one-click approval — fast enough to keep up with the volume of small jobs you take on.
Lay out your week, slot in new jobs, and send customers automatic reminders so you cut down on no-shows and keep your day running on time.
Invoice from your phone the moment the job's done and take card or ACH payment on site, so small balances don't pile up into end-of-week chasing.
Handyman work is death by a thousand small jobs: a dozen stops a day, half of them booked that morning, most paid the same afternoon. The margin is in turning quotes around fast and never letting a $180 invoice slip through the cracks. Here's how Tabsy keeps up.
For small work, whoever quotes first usually gets it — the homeowner texting three handymen hires the one who answers, not the one who promises a number "by the weekend." Build a simple quote in under a minute from your phone, text or email it for one-click approval, and you've booked the job before your competition has opened their laptop.
When you're running ten stops a day, the enemy is the sticky note that falls off the dash and the "I'll invoice that tonight" that never happens. Every job, quote, and note lives on the customer record, so nothing falls through — and the small balances that used to quietly disappear actually get billed and collected.
The good handyman business runs on the same homeowners calling back: the gutters in spring, the deck in summer, the shelf in the fall. Because every client's contact info, past jobs, and notes are in one place, a repeat customer is a thirty-second rebook — you already know the house, the gate code, and what you charged last time.
On a $150 job, a 30-day invoice is how you end up working for free — the chase costs more than the balance. Send the invoice from your phone the moment you pack up the tools and take card or ACH right there, so the money's collected before you've pulled out of the driveway instead of piling into a Friday-night round of awkward reminder texts.
A note on scope and licensing. Handyman licensing and the dollar limit on work you can do without a contractor's license vary by state, and some jobs (electrical, plumbing, anything structural) cross into permitted, licensed territory — Tabsy isn't a licensing tool, but a quick written quote and an e-signed approval give you a clear record of exactly what was agreed. Example, hypothetical: a Tuesday might be a $120 faucet swap quoted at 8am and paid by 9:30, a $340 fence-repair booked at lunch, and a $90 shelf install closed out from the driveway — eight jobs, eight invoices, nothing chased on Friday.
No bloated field-service suite and no per-feature upsells — just fast quoting, scheduling, and payment at a flat price that makes sense for a small operation.
