Jobber vs Housecall Pro: what a 3-truck HVAC or plumbing shop pays (2026)

Checked November 2026. Every price below is copied from Jobber's and Housecall Pro's own pricing pages, linked under each section. Prices are in USD and exclude sales tax.

This page prices one setup: a shop with 3 trucks, 3 techs, and 1 person in the office. That's 4 people logging in, so both vendors put you on a 5-user plan. If your headcount is different, the tables still show where the next price step is.

The short version

• Housecall Pro Essentials (5 users): $149/mo billed annually, or $189/mo month to month.
• Jobber Connect (5 users): $149/mo billed annually, $169/mo on a 1-year commitment, or $199/mo with no commitment.
• Jobber Grow (5 users): $229/mo billed annually, $259/mo on a 1-year commitment, or $299/mo with no commitment.

Billed annually, Housecall Pro Essentials and Jobber Connect list the same price. Month to month, Housecall Pro Essentials lists $10/mo less than Jobber Connect. What each plan includes is different, so compare the features you actually use (below).

Price per year for a 4-person shop

Yearly totals are the listed monthly price times 12, before card fees, add-ons, and tax. Jobber also lists a middle option: $169/mo (Connect) or $259/mo (Grow) on a 1-year commitment billed monthly.

Smaller plans, and why they don't fit 4 people

• Housecall Pro Basic: $59/mo billed annually or $79/mo monthly, with 1 user included.
• Jobber Core: $29/mo billed annually, $39/mo on a 1-year commitment, or $49/mo with no commitment, with 1 user. Jobber Connect with 1 user is $99, $119, or $139/mo.
• Jobber charges $29/mo for each added user. Housecall Pro's page doesn't list a per-user price for Basic or Essentials. Ask before you count on adding people to those plans.

When you hire a 5th, 6th, or 9th person

• Jobber: Connect and Grow both have 10-user and 15-user prices. Connect with 10 users is $229/mo billed annually ($299/mo with no commitment). Grow with 10 users is $299/mo billed annually ($399/mo with no commitment). Or add users at $29/mo each.
• Housecall Pro: Essentials includes 5 users. MAX includes 8 users, then $35/mo for each additional user.

Card and bank payment fees

• Jobber: 2.9% + 30¢ for online card payments, 2.7% + 30¢ for Tap to Pay, 1% for bank (ACH) payments, and an extra 1% for instant payouts. Same rates on every plan.
• Housecall Pro: card processing "as low as 2.59%", and a 1% fee on bank payments. The pricing page gives the starting rate only, not the full rate table.

On a busy month these fees can be bigger than the subscription. For example, every 0.1% on $20,000 of card payments is $20. For more on this, see fees beyond the monthly price.

Contracts, trials, and intro prices

• Jobber: no-commitment monthly plans can be cancelled anytime. On the 1-year commitment, you keep paying monthly until the 12 months are up, even if you cancel. Annual plans are paid up front and the payment is non-refundable. All plans renew automatically unless set to non-renew. Free trial: 14 days on Grow, no credit card.
• Housecall Pro: says it doesn't require long-term contracts. Free trial: 14 days on MAX, no credit card. The page showed a sign-up offer of $26/mo for 1 month on Basic and Essentials, and $99/mo for 3 months on MAX when you book a demo. These are intro prices. The regular price applies after.

Both trials start you on a higher plan than the one above. Check which features go away when the trial ends.
