Where Housecall Pro falls short
- Not fence-specific — built for HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general home services
- No fence material takeoff calculator
- No satellite measurement
- Pricing: $49/mo (1 user), $129/mo (5 users), $229/mo (unlimited)
- Marketing features (postcards, review requests) are nice but don't help you estimate faster
- Overkill for fence contractors who need estimating + payments, not marketing automation
