Plan for this
Recurring service plans (maintenance agreements) only come with Max. If they're a big part of your business, budget $299/month, not $149.
What you pay per year
| Plan | Annual billing | Monthly billing | Annual saves |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic | $708 | $948 | $240 |
| Essentials | $1,788 | $2,268 | $480 |
| Max | $3,588 | $3,948 | $360 |
Extra costs to budget for
- Payment processing: cards from 2.59%, bank payments 1%, check deposits in the app free.
- Extra users: $35/month each on Max. The pricing page doesn't list an extra-user price for Basic or Essentials, so if you have 6 or 7 people, ask before you upgrade to Max.
- Paid add-ons (priced separately, not on the pricing page): CSR AI call answering, Pipeline, Payroll, Accounting, business coaching, Voice, vehicle GPS and dashcams, and websites.
Free trial, contracts and discounts
- 14-day free trial with Max features. No credit card required.
- No long-term contract required, per Housecall Pro's FAQ.
- Annual billing saves $20 to $40 a month depending on the plan.
- When I checked, the pricing page also showed intro offers: a discounted first month on Basic and Essentials, and a lower price for the first 3 months of Max if you book a demo. These change often, so check before you sign up.
Is Housecall Pro worth the price?
My take: it fits residential service crews of roughly 1 to 10 people who want booking, dispatch, invoicing and payments in one app without a long contract. The price is published, which ServiceTitan's isn't, so you know what you're getting into.
Where I'd look elsewhere
- Solo and on a tight budget: Jobber's Core plan starts at $29/month billed annually. See Jobber pricing.
- 5-person crew comparing prices: Housecall Pro Essentials and Jobber Connect both cost $149/month billed annually for 5 users. The difference is in features, not price.
- Large shops with call centers and many techs often look at ServiceTitan, which prices per technician. See what owners report paying.
