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.

Contacted immediately! Very nice and accommodated my schedule. Easy to work with
Easy to use quick connection process with a professional
This was so easy typed in licensed Landscaper in my area... Pesto. Up pops company, they called me and job was done!
I was not sure at first but then I read more about this company putting my information out there the next morning I received a call from wedocleanouts.com and took care of me fast the same day
Had windows replaced by a HomeAdvisor recommended contractor. They gave us wonderful service and I was impressed with them.
First they sent an unkowlegeable person, who took four hours to not finish the job and leave - for a fixed price (now reimbursed); next and upon a complaint they recommended Sears, which tirned out an excellent choice!
Easy to use. Enjoyed being able to have a selection of choices.
As I stated, preparation was the key to my attic space project. Last year, I hired HandyPro through HomeAdvisor to repair the back of the home. The front of the home, and the squirrel, and bird nestings had been done years earlier, because I wanted to save up for all parts of the project without use of credit card, or financing.
Got a plumber to replace a valve. They broke a pipe doing it and tried fixing it. The fix didn't hold and flooded my house. The only thing HomeAdvisor is will to do is send a another in 3 day and leave me without water and water damage to my home. Their happiness guaranteed is a lie.

Found Jose Carrero through your site, made contact with him and within minutes he called. Very happy with HA and Jose Carrero.
I hired Green & Things to mulch my courtyard. The job was very professional and the Greens were very courteous. I would recommend this company to anyone who needs their services.
This was a great experience and I would highly recommend giving the application a try. I had multiple matches for my project the same day.
They gave me a number of handymen and I chose from the list.
Within minutes of putting out the call for help I got 4-5 responses in less than 10 minutes I'm really thankful for the help because I really needed someone today and I was able to get that accomplished great work thank you keep it going
Received 3 referrals
All were competitively priced and had good reviews.
Very good service they followed up to make sure I was satisfied and the people they recommended were super great now I will be following them with other project when ready.
Not only was I not helped on the website, I was added to a call list. After two days of calls, I called them to be removed from that list. The operator hung up in my face before I even finished my first sentence. Rude. Unprofessional. Not worth anyone's time.

3-31-2021 Requested a handyman to come and remove a tv from wall, patch hole and paint, assemble new TV table top stand, assemble top of hutch and install, install TV on new table top stand. These idiots sent a gentleman who was half crippled and couldn't speak well. He couldn't get the TV off the wall and got grease all over the wall. We finally had enough and told him to leave. I called TA and they said they would refund $100 of the $225 charge. Needless to say, that did not go over well with us. I will totally dispute any charge they make to my credit card. Save yourself some time and frustration, DO NOT use these bozos! I had to put 1 star - they don't deserve any...

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
