HomeAdvisor (Powered by Angi) Reviews Summary

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.

Found exactly what we were looking for. The company we hired was professional and wonderful to work with. Will continue to work with the company in the future.

Please, if you don't want your money to be taken away from you, don't sign up. They send you emails with many contacts who never ever respond, and they charge you for each one of them (I think they provide incorrect contact numbers as nobody answer). Keep in mind that they will always charge you for each email you receive, even if the "potential" client never answers the phone or your texts. For every ten clients they sent you, maybe three responds, and they charge you for all 10, Out of those three that responded perhaps one wants to do the job, and in some cases, that single job is so small that it doesn't even cover your trip and time. You can call and explain to the customer service, but nobody does anything to take away all the charges for each one of those emails. Plus you are not the only ones that could get the job as they send that email to many other companies.
Based on my experience and also a friend that signed up with HomeAdvisor as well, we were never able to do a single job and we were charged more than $2000. Even after I called them and told them to cancel, they kept sending emails and charging my credit card for each "supposed" client they were still sending. I put a dispute on the credit card as they never agreed to cancel and now they sent me to collection, something that I will be more than happy to fight! I strongly advise you not to sign up. They will take all your money and you don't get any business.

Thank you.
Eddie.

Repair weatherstrip for doors
December 12, 2020

Searched internet for contractors, but found none who had the interest in my small job.
Discussed with them before they began about my small job, but they proceeded joyfully.
The HomeAdvisor that set everything up was courteous, professional, efficient and prompt.

Gas Line Repair
December 12, 2020

I called several plumbers who each said they could not complete this emergency work for several weeks. Home Advisor provided sources immediately and the work was started the next day. Yay for Home Advisor!

Masonry Demolition

The HomeAdvisor tool worked quite well for this job. Only complaint is with the android phone app. The review window would not allow me to enter information without flipping back and forth on the screen.

Job is complete
December 12, 2020

My only issue is that I did not want to be contacted by a myriad of business owners and even after I responded to an email saying I was using someone, the calls kept coming. I wanted a list that I could contact. I did find someone and my job is complete and that is the important thing.

Go to for contractor
December 12, 2020

I am very pleased with Victor and Lazo, both are absolute gentlemen and excellent plumbers. They are very deliberate, clean up after themselves, and highly skilled. Cass Plumbing has made a very positive impression with me and are very dependable. Their prices are competitive and they give perks for repeat business. That said, they are my first choice for all my plumbing needs...

Helped in a difficult hire
December 11, 2020

I contacted a bunch of contractors, and nonel of them were interested. Home Advisor stepped in, and put me in touch with Reyes. They came in quoted the job, I gave them the money for materials, and they started the next day.

Fencing and tree removal
December 11, 2020

I had 3 companies come give me prices.
1 company wouldn't even come out and gave me a price over the phone. - No good!
My job was delayed because of my personal reasons and ELB Landscaping was able to accomadate my timing.
Once the job started, they were here everyday until completion.
