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.

Definitely using them for every single thing we need in the future
Within one hour of putting my request online with HomeAdviser I was contacted by two companies. Both came to my home/yard and gave me estimates the same day. I selected one and the work was completed by the following day. Very fast and efficient solution to my tree challenges.
Pleasant, timely, well done. Opened up back driveway to access septic and removed overburden on front driveway.
It was a great experience everything went smoothly and they did an excellent job, and I am very pleased.
In one year 2 services. The first one the contractor shows up to mount 2 TVs. He said that he needs more time, he was upset because he said needing another person to do job, very bad attitude. He avoid to install one of the retractable arms to save time. When I called back HomeAdvisor to complete the job, they didn't help. The second time, I tried to got a wall fixed. HomeAdvisor sales setup the price and the conditions. The contractor called me to ask upfront for more money and more time. HomeAdvisor wanted to have me paying for the materials after all the service was set up with one of their agents. I can see a bad common pattern ongoing. Don't waste your time and energy with this company, not professional, very unethical practices.
I have not use home advisor before. I was concerned there would be a fee involved and usually use word of mouth to find contractors. I was called promptly by the contractor, he came out and gave me a quote within a few days and got the job done quickly and professionally.
Very good experience! Company called, set up appointment and was prompt, professional and courteous.
Fine experience fine knowledge prompt service helpful suggestions
This summer we were desperately looking for people to hire for 2 projects. When I couldn't find any one I decided to try Home Advisors. I quickly found contractors for both projects. I have been very happy with the work done by the stone mason and the carpenter we hired. The process was so easy. I will definitely use this service again.
Stan M. Was my service technician, he was knowledgeable and informative.
I am very pleased.
They demanded that I give them a charge card number before they booked the appointment and they said that they didn't accept cash. No one showed up to look at what I wanted done and give me a quote. I like see the person who is doing the job before I accept them to do the job. I didn't get multiple quotes to pick from as they promised. I feel like they and Angie's list is just a scam.
Bath Planet gave me exactly what I wanted, and they did it in 6 hours. The shower experience was fantastic. After Byron and Josh finish installing my shower replacement and tube removal they cleaned the entire bathroom and vacuumed the living room rug. Plus they cleaned all the refuse from the job site and took it all away. Didn't even know I had any thing done.
Our home sold quicker than we anticipated and our entire family needed to be out of the home in 11 days. While searching the internet for Bulk & Junk movers, found "sitejabber". Received responses within 15 minutes. Great service.
Very pleasant experience. I would hire him for future projects. Very reasonable priced!
Give my experience a 3 of 5. Some companies don't want a smaller job. They hear or see the job and they don't call back with an estimate.
They seem to pick the jobs they want and discard less $$$$ makers. Too many jobs to pick from I guess.
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
