Auto repair software for workshops and mobile mechanics

Bays, diagnostics, and customer vehicles deserve more than a paper job card. Run repair tickets, quotes, and invoices in one place — in the bay or on the road.

What slows work down

  • Job cards get lost between bay and counter

    Symptoms, parts ordered, tech notes — if they aren't digital, the invoice misses half the work.

  • Customers want updates you don't have time to write

    Status is in someone's head. Call-backs and "is it ready?" messages eat the day.

  • Quotes for bigger repairs stall the bay

    Waiting on approval while the car sits. Without a clean quote path, authorisation is verbal and disputed later.

  • Parts and labour never reconcile cleanly

    Underbilling is quiet. Spreadsheets after closing time are how shops lose margin.

How Servicebay helps

  • Every vehicle job is a live ticket

    Customer, device/vehicle notes, assigned tech, status, and media from intake to ready for pickup.

  • Quotes customers can approve before work proceeds

    Send the estimate, capture acceptance, then continue on the same job without retyping diagnostics.

  • Bay and field work in one system

    In-store workshop jobs and mobile callouts both get addresses, schedules, and invoices as needed.

  • Invoice that matches the repair order

    Labour and parts line items from the job become the customer invoice.

  • Payments at pickup, not weeks later

    Close the ticket with payment so cashflow matches completed repairs.

Transparent pricing — no add-on trap

A small workshop or mobile mechanic should not need a dealer-grade DMS to run repair orders. Servicebay keeps pricing to one per-seat number with parts, estimates, and invoicing built in.

  • Basic: $9/seat/month (annual) or $12/seat monthly — jobs, customers, scheduling
  • Pro: $29/seat/month (annual) or $36/seat monthly — quoting, invoicing, payments, inventory, reporting, Xero + QuickBooks
  • 30-day free trial, full Pro, no credit card required

For comparison: Jobber Connect starts at $99/month for one user (annual) and Housecall Pro Essentials runs around $149/month. Servicebay Pro is $29/seat/month (annual) with quoting, inventory, invoicing, and payments included.

Frequently asked questions

Servicebay is job, quote, invoice, customer, and payment software that works well for small auto repair shops and mobile mechanics — especially teams that want phone and web access without a heavyweight dealer DMS.

Can I track jobs by bay or station?

Yes. Assign jobs to stations (bays) and track occupancy so you can see where work is happening at a glance.

Does it work for mobile mechanics as well as workshops?

Yes. Off-site jobs support service addresses and scheduling alongside in-store workshop work.

Can customers approve repair estimates before work starts?

Yes. Send quotes for acceptance, then continue on the linked job so authorisation is clear before labour and parts proceed.
