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.

Easy to use home advisor to get info about regrouting a shower. I received an email immediately saying they would notify possible places to do such work. I heard from suggested places within a day.
Your representative was polite, very informative as to how your company works. It was a pleasure speaking with him.
I had people call me. Price range from 6500. To 15,000. Not for any other work like duct work etc. Just replace system. Small house! But got to screen a few which helped the cost shock.
This was a very easy and smooth process. They were involved every step of the way.
I do not know how I got connected to Home Advisor. I contacted contractors thru phone. Became curious when I got calls from contractors that wee ot on my call list.
Awesome experience very helpful will use again.
Easy to use and track. Clear communication
It was easy to find what I needed to have done. They had a a section for carpet repair and a list of people who did it in my area.
The fellows came in and took care of the removal of the sofa. Nice personable guys.
I requested several quotes but only one company responded. I think there is a lot of work out there and it is a job that some would not like to tackle.
Jeff came out on time. He spent the time to do a great job. I recommend make sure to get a accurate estimate which includes any additional costs added on such as tax and any additional services such as removal of impacted ice and snow. Overall, I recommend this company.
Once I had already found a resource my phone continued to ring and my email exploded for the following 2 days with alternate Companies. There needs to be a way to "stop the clock" once you've settled on a resource!
They lie so much, this place are specialist in stealing your money and acting innocent, a lot of make made up leads that are probably made out by them. Stay away from them, they will ruin your business. If you get any leads that are fake or people not even trying to buy your service even if you can prove it, they won't credit that back or even care at all.
I like the service that was provided linking to different companies
After submitting my info for tree service, I had multiple responses from contractors within the hour. Trunks Tree Care was excellent to work with. Thanks
Intelligent and friendly staff. Quick accurate service. Found me a real gem of a contractor.
It's hard to find reliable, reasonably priced service providers
The Contractor contact me right away & the job was finished in less than 2 hours
Called for a referral but never heard from anyone. Next day got a a follow up email to ask if anyone had contacted me. I replied no. Someone from Home Advisor called and gave me the name and number of the service that I used and in a short time the work was done. It all worked out very well and I was very happy.
This is my second time using the home advisor, both times worked out well
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
