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.

Home advisor has always been my go to place. Any project I was needing that's who I called.
Great, easy and very satisfying very highly recommended
Very helpful. Organized and easy to navigate. Would definitely use the service again.
Great but the price could of been more reasonable customer service was great
I never go wrong with home advisor. Every time I hire a contractor from here I am never disappointed.
The pro messaged me within two minutes of searching home advisor. He was local and highly qualified.
As soon as I contacted Home Advisor, I was being guided into the service I needed, then an immediate quote. Then a personal phone call for feedback, I like that. I used them before & was satisfied. Takes away the doubt wondering if the pro is professional & the job done is guaranteed. Thanks again Home Advisor!
I wrote for a service company and within 1/2 hour I had a response..
Ozi and his crew did a great job painting the exterior of our house. He was careful to address all the requirements that we had, and he exeeded all our expectations. He was open to discussing any concerns that we had about the work. He was careful to protect the work areas from any paint spillage, and he had a very good attention to detail. We were very satisfied with the final product. He finished the work actually by the date that he had quoted to start the work. Price was very reasonable and was the same as originally quoted. We highly recommend Life in Colors for your painting project.
I submitted my project, received messages from a couple of interested businesses, then hired someone to complete the project. Pretty simple process.
Excellent response to my request for help with weeding on a one time project and an ongoing monthly basis.
After finding HomeAdvisor online, we were connected with Affinity Appliance Service. John of Affinity scheduled our work quickly, solved our problem easily, and charged a reasonable price. We'll definitely call again.
Newscape Forestry did me a wonderful job. Very professional and courteous employees
My wife and I were very very satisfied with the work they done for us
Great company to work with
Could not have been a better service. Chris is a real professional.
Provide lots of professionals to chose from and make an informed choice.
I received the information about different companies. GNB Construction. Was the only one to contact us. We were very satisfied with this company.
Owner was extremely professional and the cleaning and repair services were excellent
It was a good exoerience. I was pleasantly surprised how many companies responded back to me so quickly.
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
