Before you post

What to know before posting an HVAC job in Houston

Air qualityHumidity, pollen and dust load filters and ducts; say when filters last changed.
Service timingA spring tune-up beats a July breakdown; post it before peak season.
Safety firstGas smell or CO alarm: leave the house and call 911 before you post.
Typical Houston prices (2026)

How it works

How booking and payment work

Three steps from “the furnace is dead” to “fixed and paid.” First bid in about 10 minutes.

1
Free to post · no card needed

Post your job

Describe the job, add photos and enter your ZIP. Posting and comparing bids is free. Furnace won’t fire in a deep freeze, a two-flat boiler losing pressure, radiators cold on the top floor — add a photo of the unit and mark it urgent if it is.

When the work is done

Review the work and approve payment release

Review the finished work and the pro’s completion photos, then approve the invoice to release payment to the pro. Nothing is released until you say so.

Fees. Posting and comparing bids is free — a small service fee applies when you book, covering escrow payment protection. You see the total before you confirm.

If the job grows. Your bid covers the job you described. Agree on added work and its price in chat. You approve the final invoice before payment is released.

What ID-verified means. Every pro uploads a government ID and personal details to Stripe Identity, verified before a pro can be paid. AllBetter verifies identity, not trade licenses or insurance — ask about those in chat.

Houston HVAC — questions that still matter

Service timing, repair vs. replace, emergencies, and when you pay.

When do I pay?
Posting and comparing bids is free. When you book, you pay into escrow before work starts. You approve payment release to the tech after reviewing the finished work.
Do HVAC pros in Houston need permits?
Minor repairs and maintenance usually don’t. Full system replacements, major ductwork or gas line work typically require permits in Houston. Confirm with your tech in chat.
Are HVAC pros on AllBetter licensed?
AllBetter verifies each pro’s identity, not licenses or insurance. Texas requires HVAC contractors to be licensed by TDLR; confirm license, insurance and any NATE certification in chat before hiring.
What counts as an HVAC emergency in Houston?
No AC in 95°+ heat and high humidity, a major refrigerant leak, complete system failure, a burning smell or electrical issues. Many techs take emergency calls; expect higher rates after hours.
How much do emergency HVAC calls cost in Houston?
Emergency and after-hours calls often add $100–$300+ to regular rates, and call-out fees run $200–$600 plus parts and labor. Post the job and mark it urgent.
What should I include in my HVAC job post?
Describe the issue (no cool air, strange noises, error codes), the system type and age, home size if known, whether it’s urgent, and photos of the unit and thermostat.
