First off, they could care less about you. (The provider)

Second, it's nothing but fake customers and the tack won't give me the customers contact info so I have to use there site to contact my "customers".

Third, there website disign is awful. After I pay there stupid qoute fee, I have the right to every bit of their contact info.

Fourth, because I need thumbtack to reach out to my customers it almost always ends in disaster because there servers work less than half the time.

I am an experienced writing professional and thought I would try to generate some side business via Thumbtack. If you don't respond to requests within a minute, you are blocked from submitting a quote. This is not personalized service, but simply who can respond the fastest. I just read other comments on the internet that suggest Thumbtack generates fake requests to defraud service providers. I have never received a response to any request I was able to respond to, nor have I received a quote for any request I posted. I think Thumbtack is a waste of time and money.

A&J Painting replaced my cabinets in the kitchen, installed tile (very nice), faucet, and painted, very polite gentlemen, neat and clean. Looks great! Would definitely recommend.

Molly Silva is an excellent, multi-talented, individual. From her impressive versatility, as an accomplished wedding singer, to her conducting solemn funeral proceedings -- Ms Silva is a person to count on for your truly special occasions. I, personally, witnessed her conducting a large funeral in Claremont. In addition to her sensitive consoling of the grieving family and friends, she sang several songs that clearly had a soothing effect and was appreciated by everyone in attendance. I asked her how long she had known the deceased? To my amazement, she had never met the woman -- she and the family did a great job to prepare her for this responsibility. Always punctual and prepared.

Hired Pedro Alvarez(New Braunfels, Tx) in November, he insisted on large down payment "for supplies". Never worked more than 4 hours for a couple of days, then disappeared. I threatened to call the police and he came back, again worked an hour or two, then disappeared permanently. Hired him on Nov 11 to paint my house, was to take no more than 2 weeks. It is now January 4, haven't seen him in weeks. He took $5,250 from me and did not do the job. I am a senior whose husband died last year. I guess he figured I was an easy mark. I guess he was right.

BalanceLife360 and Pauline Baylock have given me the confidence to manage my weight and maintain a healthy eating lifestyle. My new lifestyle and eating healthy is now who I am.
Pauline Baylock has encouraged me to become stronger both mentally and physically, providing support, advice, and motivation. Most importantly she believes in me. She challenges me to try new and the unfamiliar.
Together with BalanceLife360 and Pauline Baylock, I believe, stay strong, and become my own empowering inspiration.

Thumbtack is 100 times better than Angie's list. We through Thumbtack found a lot of good handyman and contractors. We use them frequently. We're Angie's list member too. We have to search handyman by ourselves in Angie's website. Ton of names and companies come out and we have to send questions or make phone call. Almost of them on the list they're so rude to respond me message or total ignore my inquire message. But Thumbtack always let us fill out an form to detail what we're looking for. Then in 24 hours will have some handyman or contractors contact us. They're very nice and polite. I'm going to cancel the membership at angies's list even thought they only cost me $9.99

Today, December 23,2015, Reggie Green, a Mounting Specialist, installed my flat screen TV to my wall. His service was excellent! He consulted with me and explained everything he was during while he mounted my TV to the wall. I was so impressed with his work, that I asked for cards so I could post them on the information board where I reside so other may contact him for service. I also asked for cards to give to my family and friends. I highly recommend Reggie Green! I was so impressed!.

I used Thumbtack to find a contractor who builds patio decks. They ended up giving my information to a convicted felon who built a patio for me and has now collapsed. I am trying to file a small claims action against this man but Thumbtack will not provide me the information so I can contact him. The contact information I have is no longer valid. I have currently reached out to action 9 for help. My main point is Thumbtack does not VET out their contractors so everyone please be careful.
