Why This Matters for Electricians

You're finishing a panel upgrade at 4pm. Third job today. Customer wants an invoice but you haven't tracked your hours properly since the first job this morning. You've got a permit inspection tomorrow at 8am and two estimates to write tonight. Your wire and breaker costs from the supply house are on three different receipts crammed in your console.

Electricians face unique challenges: Tracking time on complex rewiring jobs that span multiple days. Estimating accurately before seeing the panel. Managing permits and inspection scheduling. Getting paid on time — customers stall after the work is done. Keeping track of materials used across jobs. On top of all that, Housecall Pro charges $99/month ($1,188/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median electrician earns $60,240/year. Software at $1,188/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.

Your Multimeters (Fluke) is yours. You bought it once. Helix works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.

FAQ

Is Helix really a Housecall Pro replacement for electricians?

For solo operators and small teams (1-5), yes. Helix includes invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, task management, and full accounting. Housecall Pro may be better if you have a large team (10+) or need enterprise-specific features.

$279 seems like a lot.

It's $7.75/month over 3 years. Housecall Pro is $99/month — that's $3,986 over 3 years. Which is more? And if you'd rather split it, Helix is also available as 3 payments of $99.

Can I pay in installments?

Yes. Helix is $279 as a one-time payment, or 3 payments of $99 ($297 total). Either way it's a one-time purchase — no subscription, no recurring fees ever.

What if I don't like it?

30-day money-back guarantee. Full refund. If Helix doesn't save you $500 in year one, you get every penny back.

Can I import my Housecall Pro data?

Export your data from Housecall Pro as CSV, import into Helix in about 5 minutes.
