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 hired MowItAll to cut some problem limbs on a couple of trees. They did a great job and cleaned up all their waste and some of mine.
Charlie and his helper got the job done, in short order. I'll call them again, when I need one oe their services.
Very knowledgeable service and timely. Professional workmanship from our provider
Professional job by competent workers fair price for the work
I have contacted Home Advisor tree times with excellent results. The last ime I was contacted by A Plus Temperature Solutions LLC shortly after I contacted HomeAdvisor Todd the owner and two other men came to my camp.He said the service call would be $ 75.00 plus extra depending on what else would have to be done. He charged me an extra $ 110.00 no problem.The furnace was working I turned it off about 30 minutes later and went home. My wife called Todd and asked if there was a warranty he said no. Nine days later I went to my camp turned on the furnace it turned on it turned off and then it would not start even when I pused the restart button. I called Todd he said he was very buy and could not get there until a week from that Saturday I told him to call me on Friday to let me know for sure. After no call I called him, he told me he sent one of his men up to my camp because he knew more about Oil Furnace. I said how was he going to get into the camp. That is when the BS started. He said the only day he could come would be on a Saturday. Thast was the last time I talked to him. He told me he has been in business for 15 years. I do not think he knows much about oil furnces, he does know how to take your Money
Home Adviser sent me three landscaper names. Only one responded despite repeated contacts, but he did an excellent job.
I got on the HomeAdvisor website and right away I noted the great ratings for Preferred Construction. I contacted them and within a couple days, the estimator came to my house and the process began. Your service is valuable and much appreciated.
The contractor that did our job was great, thank you home advisor, we will definitely hire Matronics LLC in the future for all of our electronic needs.
I was a little leary at first, but I have been happy with the last two Contractors so far. Word of mouth is not always best, Home Advisor has worked well thus far. Pleased!
I was very pleased with the way that Justin completed my project, very professional, he listened as well as gave good feedback making sure my project looked great when finished. I absolutely recommend hiring for quality at a reasonable price.
Called quoted fixed
Pretty simple and as predicted
It is amazing how easy it is to find contractors who are already vetted and who have availability. Thank you!
Found someone close to me that did a good job was fair priced and was right on time
Home Advisor gave multiple options, all good businesses. I hired someone within minutes and they did a great job. I highly recommend Home Advisor!
Web site easy to use, and provided me a great plumber to fix my problem.
Got several responses from appropriate contractors and ended up with good results. Happy with our choice of contractors and the process we used to find them. All worked well.
Gave me people to call. Best Choice was quick to respond. They were on site earlier than they said they would be. Gave a fair price and did the work very quickly.
I received calls from multiple contractors who did not know that my job was small. I put the square footage in the remarks which either didn't make it to the contractors or they didn't read them. What is the point of giving me space for comments if they are not going to be read?
Plumbing experience at home advisor, elated companies contact me within minutes of requesting a job / work needed.
Quick reaction of several contractors. Hutson Tree Service was the best!
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
