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 had started searching for help but had trouble finding exactly what I needed. They called me to ask if I had finished my project and I told them my issue finding the right person and made a recommendation and it was a perfect fit.
Requested Technician to assess and repair faulty furnace. Home advisor identified a couple of contractors. I chose Summit Heating & Air due to their prompt response and
Repair of my faulty furnace. My experience was very satisfactory. I was very please with both Home advisor and Summit Heating & Air for their quick response, courtesy
And professionalism.
Bryan and crew arrived on time. Very professional. They even raked up wood chips in area.
I felt that my experience with Home Advisor was a good smooth experience, and I felt a sense of trustworthiness, and I felt that Home Advisor had my back on this. To me, I felt more relaxed, with a sense of confidence, feeling that Home Advisor also has a reputation to live up to and answer to.
I've used home advisor twice now after purchasing my first home. And each time I was surprised by the response time of each contractor. And further more the quality of the work that was done. Thank you.
I received two calls the next morning after my posting, and was thrilled to get service within a couple of hours!
I own two houses and hired many workers for years. From now on I got the experience of hiring thru Home Advisor. It was incredible help. They supported me 100% and promise myself that ONLY will order jobs recommended by Home Advisor
I got excellent qualified responses quickly and from pros.
I needed a very large tree taken down and didn't know where to start. Home Advisor had a handle on it and within an hour I had 3 tree services calling me back. Shocking and amazing that they are so on top of things. I couldn't be happier.
Easy to use to hire movers. Was given a selection of companies to request quotes. My ultimate selection was professional and courteous.
The first party that contacted me hector was contractor I hired. His experience and price were spot on. He looked at my project on Tuesday and started work on Wednesday at 9 am completed it 339 pm with the three workers. Everything was cleaned up and not s piece of scrap
Left. Will definitely use home advisor again
It was a great experience and was fast to find a Company. Thank you very much
I happened to find an add in my email at the same time I needed to have some work done on my plumbing. I didn't feel comfortable doing the job myself so I pursued the Home Adviser add. I chose to negotiate with the plumber as I thought the price was too steep for the work that needed to be done. The quote was $237 for changing out a few washers and seals for a bathtub faucet. I had 2 phonecalls about the job. The first wasn't willing to negotiate and the second person was selected for a lower cost. I already had the materials on hand. The work was accomplished at the price we negotiated and I'm quite pleased.
Very customer consciousness. Great cleaning job. Are very nice and do a great job.
I am very happy that Window King did such a great job. They were professional and worked hard.
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
