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.

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.

Reluctantly, after exhausting bad experiences after another. I turned to Home Advisor.
I was matched with a dependable contractor who was already vetted. My experience was great. I will not hesitate to use Home Advisor again.
Good was given a choice was contacted by good firms
Customer service was excellent. I felt my needs were given priority. No fluff
My service adviser, Jose Rodriguez was courteous, prompt, accurate and reasonable in his service.
I had been trying to get estimates for a replacement furnace that would require installation of baseboard system using oil heat. I couldn't get anyone to call me back, HomeAdvisor gave me the name of a company (Mattras) that I called and they called me back the same day, arranging an appointment the next week.
Very fast turnaround time, good contacts, and good workers.
Ace Mechanical, Adam the tech was great, very thorough and explained everything, gave me the parts price before proceeding.
Fantastic to find the qualified company to take out my three trees.
My advisor responded every questions and phone call I made Very friendly and honest
I'm so happy to have business with people who really cares
I was surprised at the quick & professional responses I received from this service.
Will never use home advisor again. We hired a professional plumber to turn our single vanity bathroom sink into a double vanity. We explained what needed to be done and was quickly accepted by the "plumber" After 6 trips to the hardware store and multiple people coming to help the plumber do the job they confidently accepted we quickly learned these plumbers had NO idea what they were doing. They offered to be paid under the table to keep it cheaper. Needless to say, the whole ordeal was sketchy, and when they told us they would need an extra day we told them to not return. Due to the fact we would need a professional plumber to fix the mess they had created. I found multiple lawsuits against home advisor, so please just google a professional company to get your home improvement work done. It's not worth the headache or money.
I needed a roofer, for some reason we tried to use one we had used in the past. We were working with a timeline as we were selling a property. I turned to Home Advisor twice; once for a realtor and then the roofer. James Papez Construction, LLC was answered prayer.
I did not know where to start, Home Adviser helped in finding a Contractor that was reliable and met my needs.
Company I selected was very good. Gave a fair price and did a good job.
Exceptional. Great communication from contractor. Exceptional job. Fast, accurate. Timely, professional, very satisfied. Definately recommend contractor.
Great & very good work. Very satisfied with the construction work on the building. Call them for your self and find out how good their work is.
I was given several contact numbers for different contractors who never followed through. I was about to go a different direction when someone from Home Advisors called to see who we had used. After explaining that none had worked out, he had another company contact me within the day, with a backup contractor. That made all the difference.
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
