On SmartCustomer, businesses may not offer incentives or pay to remove reviews. Learn more about our Review Guidelines.
The company exhibits a mixed reputation, with notable strengths in customer satisfaction when it comes to specific contractors and service providers, who are often praised for professionalism and quality work. However, significant concerns arise regarding the lead generation service, with numerous customers expressing frustration over poor-quality leads, lack of refunds for invalid contacts, and overwhelming solicitations. Many reviews indicate a decline in service quality following the merger with Angie's List, leading to a perception of the company as unreliable. Overall, while individual service experiences can be positive, systemic issues with lead handling and customer support remain prevalent.

Excellent recommendations, for my a/c needs. Allen air was one of many companies giving quotes. I chose allen air based on home advisor and they were right this is an honest company. Can't thank you enough.
Great workers! Diagnosed the problem and Fixed it.
Friendly, Knowledgeable and Respectful.
Billy was wonderful to work with. Professional, prompt and made sure I was completely satisfied with the job done!
Great experience! Efficient, friendly, cost-effective, hard-working staff, good people!
My contractor rescheduled twice, and then never showed up. Home Advisor pays Google for fake reviews.
It was easy to use HomeAdvisor. After entering our needs, we were immediately given company names. By the time I got off my computer, I already had several companies contacting me. I selected 3 to get estimates from and made appointments with two of them - one for that day and one for the next day. Both arrived in a timely manner to assess the situation and provide an estimate for doing the work. (The 3rd company could not come until the next week, so we did not make an appointment.)
Home Advisor is very helpful at helping customers find options, the respective vendor then gives you a call and you can pick and choose and evaluate as required
Initially they only give you names of companies and won't give you the info you need to contact the companies. After finally getting the info they pester you with all kinds of other trash for more and more projects and don't even have first one done
MF Concrete made a quality first contact and calmly listened to the project explanation and responded confidently and completely.
Very satisfied I found someone within a day after I had applied.
The roofer "Best Roofing and Asphalt Corp" that HomeAdvisor helped us find is reliable and very efficient. Thank you. Great job!
We had to ask the contractor to have a link sent to pro side feedback.
The concrete front steps of my home were old, tipping, oddly sized, and pushing against the foundation. YRD Jockey efficiently removed them and hauled off the concrete. My experience was excellent! I had the best person for the job and the best price!
Mr. Armando Martinez did an excellent job of removing the Mold in my Guest Bathroom. Mr. Martinez was very professional and thorough in completing this job in five hours. Mr. Martinez was able to photograph all of the work being done and was kind enough to explain all the work he had done. I will definitely recommend him and Sani-Effect to my Family and Friends!
Easy to deal with and see reviews. Better experience than before.
Quick. Having dealt with a unreliable person who had not mowed my lawn in almost a month. I was getting desperate to locate a reliable contractor to help me. Home Advisor came to my rescue. Thank you.
I submitted my project and was immediately contacted by contractors. It was great to know I had the option to chose who worked best for me.
Easy and Stress Free experience. Good cost. Good quality. Quick and convenient service.
Answer: We had a similar experience when first trying Home advisor out. They kept taking money out of our account arbitrarily. I finally had to file stop payment forms at my bank. Then they threatened us with extra fees unless we "settled" our account. We have strict DTPA laws (deceptive trade practice act) in our state. I advised we complain to our Attorney General about this. I think home advisor should be banned in our state because of this fraud.
Answer: I didn't, they have been blowing my phone up for 6 month's now and now they act like thier desperate for me to sign with them. I have absolutely no want or will i ever sign with them after i have heard what thier doing to contractors who have a contract with them. I just signed with a family owned reality company and even they told me not to sign and even when i tell home advisor i don't want thier business they ignore my request and still call and now they act like thier a home owner requesting painting but once i get to asking where they live or information all of a sudden I'm being told to do a background check and i sign up for free! But i have to pay a percentage of my leads or size of job something of that nature where i pay them for a no guarantee of work as i see it. I can't trust handing money to a company that's being deceitful in a phone call off the rip! Just be careful i don't hear good thing's about them all over now.
Answer: Fake leads, sends email, text & calls between 20-30/day and charges for each. Even if Contractor doesn't open Or answer any calls! Will rip off contractors about $800/day until they catch it and no refunds! Do Not Use HomeAdvisor!
Answer: I don't know about the house cleaners but, I do not trust the company based on my own recent experience.
Answer: You don't know you have to call home advisor and wait on the phone for an hr until they pick up
