Our takeHousecall Pro covers the booking-to-payment chain for home service crews: online booking, scheduling and dispatch, estimates, invoices and card or bank payments, with a mobile app.

Its pricing page shows one plan set for most trades and a higher one for HVAC, plumbing and electrical, so the price you see depends on the industry you select. There is no free plan, but a 14-day trial needs no credit card.

Why we rate itHousecall Pro publishes a price for every plan, lists what each plan adds, and states its trial, payment fees and cancellation steps on its own pages.

The catchPrices differ by industry, Max is booked through a demo, and cancelling or pausing billing needs a phone conversation with a team member.

The money-back guarantee covers only the monthly subscription fee within 30 days.

The page opens on a four-step plan quiz; choosing Handyman leads to housecallpro.com/pricing/?hcp_industry=handyman, where the result card shows Essentials at $149/mo (Billed annually), and the page's own plan cards list the Annual and Monthly prices for Basic, Essentials and Max shown above. The page states that all prices are in USD and exclude sales tax. The home cleaning, landscaping and general contractor views show the same figures. The page also advertises intro offers, which are not regular prices and are not listed here.

From Housecall Pro's pricing page with the HVAC and plumbing industry views opened, checked 28 October 2026; the page markup for the electrical view carries the same figures, and the figures were read again in the page markup on 2 November 2026 and had not changed. These cards show only "/mo" and no billing period, and the page markup holds no separate annual or monthly figure for them. The page title and the quiz-result template on the same URLs still read $59. The same page shows the other plan set above for most trades, and the page does not explain why the two differ.
