Nothing to remember
Filters every few months, gutters twice a year, the HVAC service once. HousTask lays out a year of your home’s maintenance, so each month shows exactly what needs doing and nothing sneaks up on you. Hover or tap a job to see every month it comes back.
Every month: test smoke and carbon monoxide alarms
Catch it early
The first years in a house are when small misses turn into expensive repairs. Every task says why it matters and whether it’s a job for you or a pro, so you know what’s worth doing before it costs you.

Start where you are
You don’t need receipts or a service log. Answer “I don’t know” and HousTask puts it on this month’s list. Once it’s done, the schedule keeps itself from there.
How it works
Type and rough age. No address.
Pick systems and features. Each brings its own maintenance.
A date, roughly how long ago, or “I don’t know”. All work.
Try it
Pick when the HVAC was last serviced and watch the next service land on the calendar. Every job in your home is scheduled the same way, and it moves again each time you mark something done.

$5.99 per month
Right here. Answer a few questions about the house and HousTask shows what needs attention this month, then keeps the rest of the year in order for you.
Most new owners don’t. Say “I don’t know” and HousTask has you start now: do it this month and the schedule runs from there. It never makes up a date.
No. There are no inventories, project boards, or budgets to keep up. HousTask does one job: what your house needs, and when.
It tells you what needs attention, when, and whether a professional usually does it. It never gives step-by-step instructions for hazardous jobs.
No. This month’s plan is free and needs no account. Create one to save your home and what you’ve done.
$5.99/month, billed monthly, cancel any time; this month’s plan stays free.
A few quick questions. A year of knowing what’s next.
