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.

Angie's List provided me with the names of 4-5 companies. We had 4 come for bids and picked the bid that best matched the service needed.
The recommendations made by HomeAdvisor were useful and helped me get the job done fast and at a reasonable price.
All communication involved in our inquiry and response was very professional and prompt.
So glad to Find Angi's List! So helpful when trying to find out information for all your Home Projects!
I have used Home Advisor for 2 entirely different project needs in the past couple of years and was connected with 2 very competent professionals. I will definitely use HA again in the future.
Too much info needed. Redundant texts and reminders.
Al was terrific. Very accommodating. Floor looks beautiful.
I looked up another project and could not get it to understand what I needed. It wanted to redo my whole bathroom and then I was supposed to pay $25.
Process was simple - I chose electrician based on past reviews and was not disappointed.
Repair of seal for gas fireplace. Henry was on time and very informative about my system
Friendly but professional helped anyway he could. Went and got the paint we discussed which color worked best and he was correct. Will haveByron back for more work
Website contact. KMJ responded within 10 minutes. They came that day for an estimate. Began the job the next day.
Workman draped the floor in bathroom and completed project promptly.
Home Advisor was exceptionally helpful in helping me find the right company for my shower installation. The reviews and feedback on the website aided in my decision which worked out very well for me. I will definitely be using Home Advisor for future projects.
Heater's two gas flames were crossing over because motor was no longer working. System over 30 years old so replacement necessary said my $185 gas bill. My gas bill is now $45.
From Angi, we found a very good contractor, who did drywall/plaster work for us and also brought in a plumber to help with the project.
I did like the referral. What I don't like is having to agree to allow so many businesses to call me. I want to only choose the ones I want. Don't like to have to deal with phone calls and emails from four companies.
Also have problems logging in Every Time I log in.
Was contacted and work completed within a week. Can't ask for better than that. P
HomeAdvisor was quick to refer a couple services. This is actually the first time a follow through happened through the service. The last time I used the service communication was a bit unorganized.
Great experience! I got a great contractor with little effort.
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
