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.

They always connect me with excellent service from local business.
Very pleased... They recommended several companies for us to choose... I will use them again...
Very good. I've used Home Advisor in the past and I have been pleased each time. I will continue to use Home Advisor for upcoming projects.
Home Advisor took the pain out of looking for contractors on our home remodel project. The contractors we ended up hiring through this website did outstanding work.
Ryan arrived at our home on time and found the problem right away. I place a call to Ryan yesterday and he responded the same afternoon and made the appointment the next day at 1300. He fixed the leak today and it has a pleasant experience dealing with a stressful situation that has caused worry because the rainy season is coming. Ryan will be at the top of my list next time a need roofing assistance.
I made the request for services and response was within minutes. It was quick, professional response and follow up.
Easy to find the professional services to submit quote for the job!

I only started a request through HomeAdvisor, but didn't finish it because I changed my mind. Still, I was inundated daily with calls from HomeAdvisor following up and trying to get me to purchase a service. While the response was immediate, I didn't want it as I declined to complete my request. Nevertheless, a lovely man got my number somehow, called and we scheduled the job for the very next day. It was worth the hassle to have received that contact, but the aggressive follow-up is a bit of a turn off. I will definitely think twice before I put a request through HomeAdvisor again.
Home Advisors category selection for painting does not adequately list full basement wall and ceiling painting as an option for selection of your specific application in their selection process. Home Advisor gave a minimal amount (2) contractors to contact with minimal reference data to review.
Have received numerous referrals, reached out to all. Contractors are slow to respond. Have used 2 and the results were great, pricing, end product, timing and customer service.
Professional job and knowledgeable, work was done in timely manner, clean after completing of the job. Overall great work.
We found these best handyman by searching on this site.
HomeAdvisor gave me leads for getting my project done via email. I had the opportunity to check out reviews prior to selecting a company to get an estimate from. HomeAdvisor called me a few days after this to check on the status of my project and to see if I had any problems and or questions.
This is the forth time I've used Home Advisor. Each service company I chose proved to be the right choice.
Well pleased with contractor and price! They were on time and cleaned up after. Will be recommending to all friends and family!
Very quick response to initial phone call and the company was able to come to the house the following day. Would definitely use this service again.
Found a high quality vendor among a good selection of quality companies.
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
