WhatsApp message templates for carpenters and joinery workshops

A joinery workshop typically needs six templates: four utility messages covering measurement visits, design approval, fitting dates and delivery updates, one marketing template for a seasonal furniture offer, and one handover note on caring for the finish. Design sign-off is utility because it sits inside an order the customer already placed.

Joinery jobs stall when drawings sit unanswered or a fitting date moves. WhatsApp gives you a place to send the drawing, get the nod back in writing and keep every date change visible to the customer.

How the category changes what you pay

  • Every template is submitted under one category, and Meta assigns the final one in review. A utility template that reads like a promotion can be reclassified as marketing, which changes both the rate and the opt-in requirement.
  • Since 1 October 2026, service messages are charged per delivered message after the first 1,000 free service messages per business phone number per month. The allowance does not roll over and there are no volume tiers.
  • Inbound messages are free, and a customer-initiated message opens the 24-hour customer service window. Anything you start outside that window needs an approved template.
