Housecall Pro Pricing 2026
Housecall Pro starts at $65/month (Basic, 1 user) — but this plan is missing most key features. The realistic entry plan for a real operation is Essentials at $169/month for up to 5 users. Annual billing saves 15–20%. 14-day free trial, no contract.
Honest warning: Housecall Pro advertises a $65/month Basic plan. This plan is missing the dispatch board, flat-rate pricebook, service agreements and most features that make HCP valuable. You will hit its limitations in your first week. The real entry plan for a working HVAC, plumbing or electrical operation is Essentials at $169/month.

What to Watch Out For
- Basic plan trap: The $65/month plan is frequently advertised but is missing dispatch, pricebook and service agreements. You will upgrade within a week, so budget for Essentials from the start.
- Price increases: Housecall Pro has raised prices three times since 2021. Lock in an annual plan if you want pricing stability.
- Annual plan refunds: Annual plans are non-refundable after cancellation. Use the 14-day free trial to fully verify the fit before committing to an annual plan.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Housecall Pro have a free plan?
No. There is no permanent free plan. The 14-day free trial gives full access to Essentials features — no credit card required. After the trial, the cheapest plan is Basic at $65/month (limited features) or Essentials at $169/month for a real operation.
Is Housecall Pro worth $169 a month?
If your business runs service agreements and you have 3+ active technicians: yes. The service agreement management, flat-rate pricebook and automated review requests save significant admin hours. For solo operators or teams without service agreements, Jobber Core at $49/month is better value.
What is Housecall Pro's cancellation policy?
No long-term contract. You can cancel at any time from account settings. Monthly plans: access continues until end of billing period. Annual plans: non-refundable after cancellation. Do the free trial first.
Is Housecall Pro cheaper than Jobber?
No. Jobber starts at $49/month (Core, 1 user) vs Housecall Pro's $169/month (Essentials). For a solo operator or small team, Jobber is significantly cheaper. HCP justifies the higher price with service agreement management and built-in marketing — features Jobber doesn't include.
