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 have used this service twice now and both times I have been pleased. It does take the worry out of finding someone honest and capable of doing the work needed.
Well, I'm happy that I found Antonio. And, thankful that Home Advisor led me to him. He was wonderful & got the job done quickly and at good price. But, for some reason - Home Advisor cancelled my appointment with him. Luckily, I was able to track him down based on his name & location. So, I called him directly,
Excellent site - each time I've had at least one or more contractors call me quickly for job inquiries!
The pro recommended was very professional. She listened and showed a real concern about me as a consumer.
At first I could not make up my mind & HA was very understanding! I called them back and set up an appointment and I am very happy that I did.
Thank you HA for helping with my decisions today!
Clean, punctual, very pleased, the technician came in on a cold and drafted wet day and still got the job done in good time.
Excellent work. Arrived on time and stayed until job finished
They provided a number of applicants for me to make a comparison
Just overwhelmed the service they did for me was over the top they did such a wonderful job I didn't even recognize my house lol I was very pleased
It was fantastic! Very easy to use your service by email, phone, text. Would use your service, again!
Home advisor gave me a list of people that could do the job. E&J Construction was the best. Edward did an amazing job installing my bedroom door for a good price. He was very professional and nice and extremely talented at his job. Thank You so much thr door looks fantastic and I give him 5 stars and recommend him to everyone.
In the end. It all came out OK, a kitchen drain issue that was fixed promptly. I was a bit concerned in the process, however. I requested an emergency repair, but was given a list of appointment dates on the Homeadvisor website beginning four days hence. That wouldn't do, so I went to a Homeadvisor competitor. Fortunately, I was contacted in 15 minutes by a HA associate (plumber) and the rest is history.
My furnace was not working properly. Blower was functioning, but, without any warm air.
I typed in help with security camera's and I received a phone call from Zach within minutes. We set up an appointment for that afternoon and he came and fixed what I needed.
Needed a fencing contractor to move 1 fence and install new fencing on an adjoining property. Home Advisor found a suitable contractor who contacted me within 24hrs set up a consultation, estimated the costs and completed the job all within 36 hours. Worked out perfectly
I have had a few things around here that needed to be done and with home advisor I was able to find and hire the right, trusted handyman and get things completed.
Very professional fair price and throughly checked everything great job
The electrician listened to our concerns and made the proper judgement in resolving our issues with our circuit panel
Brought them up on my computer n within a day I got results. Fast n easy.
Good communication and kind to help me find a local company and it went very well. Thank you.
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
