Block time off and recurring breaks

Keep clients from booking your vacations, days off, and daily breaks like lunch.

The Scheduling page (in the sidebar), under the Time off & blocks tab, is where you manage time clients can't book on top of your regular weekly hours:

Open slots = your weekly hours − booked inspections − everything on this tab.

These blocks aren't only for clients — they're drawn on your own timeline too, so scheduling an inspection yourself warns you before you book over your lunch or a day off.

The scheduling page with time off and recurring blocks

Time off

Use Time off for whole days — vacations, personal days, holidays. Click Add time off, pick a start and (optionally) end date, and an optional label. Remove one with the trash icon.

Use Recurring blocks for a time reserved every week, like a daily lunch break. Pick which weekdays it applies to, a start and end time, and an optional label. Recurring blocks are hard windows — no buffer time is applied on top of them the way it is for other bookings.

The other tabs

Links — both of your booking links side by side, with a QR code for the public one. See Take inspection requests from a public link.
Availability — your working hours and booking rules. See Configure your availability.

Blocks only apply to your own, active schedule. If you're still inheriting your organization's hours, click Customize my schedule on the Availability tab first — otherwise this tab will prompt you to set up scheduling before you can add blocks.

Configure your availability

Turn on online scheduling and set your working hours, inspection duration, and buffer time.
