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.

We monitor reviews for authenticity
I have to echo all of the other reviews. Liram was so fast (came today because he had an opening instead of five days from now,) SO polite, kind, thorough (without mansplaining,) went way above and beyond (installed new hardware on my security screen door,) and did it all for a very reasonable and fair price. I kept his card, and plan on sharing!
Literally 3 mins after making the enquiry I had the work booked for 2 days out. Amazing and the company that did the work was excellent too.
I needed help a single woman homeowner. I called them and someone was here within minutes
Easy experience - got 3 calls with bids - mover was best I have ever worked with
I had a great experience. I was able to find a contractor. The contractor was excellent. I recommend him and the service. I will use again if I need another contractor.
I did have a couple companys in the beginning that did not work out, they should be removed from your accounts, finally got the job done.
I entered "tree removal" in my area and Google sent me to Home Advisor. J&A Tree and Landscape called me within a few minutes and we set up an estimate. Marly came over on time and gave me a quote I accepted on the spot. He emailed a proposal and I agreed. He came out the next day and made my ole Silver Maple disappear like magic.
Happy with the services... cleaned ceiling fans, 3 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms, kitchen, dinette and dining room
Recently, HomeAdvisor has given me better leafs than the two other similar services that I regularly use. As both a homeowner and landlord, having access to these kinds of services is definitely a benefit when my neighbors are not able to recommend repair services.
Great experience finding a contractor for my project
Russell & Ashanti, Stroudsburg Overhead Doors, promptly responded to my call. They were extremely professional, knowledgeable and pleasant. The problem was diagnosed in minutes and promptly fixed. I highly recommend this company and it will be my "go to" company in the future for any garage door/opener issues. Thank you Home Advisor for sending me the best!
Hired Company to move and install refrigerator. Very professional and honest.
Glenn was honest and great to work with. He was on time and sent the document promptly. We highly recommend him. Call him now.
Home Advisor was excellent, the follow up was helpful. However, ever since, I have been receiving emails about all kinds of projects. I have a new home, I don't need to fix anything at this point in time. Your service was excellent and the follow up was right on time. But I will let you know when I need help with a different project. I am done with projects at this point in time. Hence give me a break with regard to all of the emails flooding my box daily. Thank you
Good choices to pick from. We got a great company and were very happy with them!
I recently bought a new build home and needed a fence installed. I chose a coated black chain-link fence with one single gate and one double gate. I chose black to match accents on my home and I was the first in my cul-de-sac to install a fence. I have received many compliments on the fence so far and have set the bar for fences to follow. I am very happy with how everything turned out and the attention to details
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
