Questions hardscaping and paver companies ask
Can customers pay a deposit?
Yes. Set a deposit on the estimate; the customer pays it by card and approves the job at the same time.
Does Selk show the weather?
Yes. The schedule shows the forecast for your area for each day, so you can move outdoor work off rainy days.

Selk costs $29/month for Solo, $79/month for Contractor (owner plus up to 5 workers), and $129/month for Contractor 10 (owner plus up to 10 workers). The first 100 companies lock in founding prices of $19, $49 and $89 per month for as long as they stay subscribed.
