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.

I requested a quote for my project and received several responses from which I could select the best I found.
My experience was amazing as a first time user. Going forward, I will use Angi for every project in my home.
This is my 3rd. Time using HomeAdvisor and each time, it's a success. I will continue to use them.
I gave HomeAdvisor a try and I'm glad I did. Saved me time from searching and reading reviews. They are awesome to work with and I will use them again for my next project
We needed a walkway made from our basement back door to the front driveway. HomeAdvisor gave us a great recommendation.
We called three on Angi list and two others and ended up using BLE which had 5 stars on Angi list and I would completely agree with that rating after using them
I have to say being my first experience using a website to find someone was easy. The first person who called about the steps and walk way never came to look at the what work needed to be done however came up with an estimate more than double than what I paid using Ardens Masonry LLC.
The project was put out as carpet cleaning, when I had specified that it was an area rug. Therefore, professionals who did not do that type of job wasted their time and mine. Then in order to get the response message I had to download the app, which I did not particularly want to do.
I did not appreciate filling out only a part of the application and still had companies trying to get in touch with me.
Impressive. Work was on time as agreed and results are top quality. So glad I found this
I started to get phone calls from"Angi" about once an hour with no number showing. If i answered there was no one there and when I didn't they did not leave a message.
Thank god I check my statements. 4 charges for over 400.00. In one week auto-drawn with the title PAY*HOMEADVISOR- (a date) HTTPSWWW. ANGI NY. This was right after I used this credit card to pay for some junk removal by (2 Men and a Truck) obviously they are associated with... ANGI is a total scam site. Steer Clear.
Very professional and responsive! Satisfied customer! Quality 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
