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.

Todd is easy to work with. He does what he says he will do and shows up when he says he will be there. We are already planning the next project.
Hired a company listed on HomeAdvisor. They did a great job. HomeAdvisor made it easy!
I found this job on Agi, but obviously HomeAdvisor has purchased Angi. When I log into Angi it sends me to HomeAdvisor and then said I'm not logged in. I wasn't sure where to put things like who I hired for the job, etc. Apart from that, hiring through the website went really well. I was able to get three bids on my project and got the job started and completed quickly. I'm very happy with the work. Just would be nice if the transition between angi and HA was smoother.
Received several offers in less than 12 hours from well qualified tradesmen.
I put in my request and within an hour got my helper. That's one reason I am a returning customer.
Very easy to use and had several people contact right away for the job, so I had choices.
Easy, reliable and trustworthy
I highly recommend it
Found a couple of professionals for servicing my unit. One person was not available for a long time. The other was available right away. He derived my unit and was honest and fair.
We had two contractors call immediately to schedule appointments for quotes. Our gutters were installed promptly and professionally.
Henry is excellent! Very pleasant and conscientious. Took several hours to get pipe repaired. Price wasn't as bad as expected. Will use again
Needed terrazzo polishing. Within the hour the company I hired called and set up an appointment for a free estimate. Owner was on time. Understood my needs. Can in under my expectations Budget wise. Hired them. 5 weeks later arranged for them to come the next week. Very professional and good work.
I am a business owner with 5 ratings listed on HomeAdvisor. I received 10 leads which either didn't answer or was out of my work description. My bill for that one week was $500. I called and the operator said she would be able to give me a credit of $200, which is worth approximately 5 leads. I asked if the homeowners knew that business owners were being charge for calling and "JUST ASKING FOR AN ESTIMATE " cost us $60, they said that homeowners weren't aware.
Homeadviser did an excellent job finding the right plumber for my needs. Keep up the good work HomeAdviser!
We were looking to have some concrete work preformed and some dry rot removed from our home. Both companies that we used and recommended by Home Advisor were excellent and the work they preformed was outstanding. It is a great way to get highly recommended and good contractors to work on your home.
Had someone call me immediately. My issue was resolved.
HomeAdvisor doesn't seem to be "on top" of their business. Response time is uncommonly slow, and this request for a review came two weeks after the work was done, and only then when I complained to the Jobber that I hadn't been asked for a review of his work, and he contacted HomeAdvisor did you request a review. I don't think you'll be around for very long!

I was a bit leery about using the website but after submitting my request, I received very prompt communication from vendors. The website is a great tool. I saved a lot of time using HomeAdvisor vs calling around myself and getting zero responses.
I was looking for a handy man and got exactly who I needed with Home Advisor's help with the good list of people who were available to do the job.
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
