I did not have any heat on the first floor of the house. Found a plumber issue fixed
Contacted Lynn's Home Improvements LLC. Their representative came to assess the damage. They dispatched their roofers the next morning. They were done in 3-4 hours total (est).
I was pleased with the contractor that I hired. However, I was spamed by home advisor. I detest repetitive emails... one is all that is necessary!
The service did supply handyman however their site does not have a place to state the project had been completed and I received numerous phone calls and texts from various handymen and form the service itself long after the project was completed. I will never use them again.
Communication: I was able to contact them when I needed and was treated politely.
After looking on home advisor I got a phone call withing an hour from a great company for my project.
Last month my 60" Led flat screen tv broke down. I googled tv repair services near me and I landed in the Home Advisor website. I spoke to a representative who assured me that they would send a repairman out for a fixed price of around $130 if the tv could be repaired. She then explained that I could save even more if I did a trial membership for only $19.99 which I could cancel anytime. When the repairman arrived, he had been told it was to set up a home theater system and not a repair, so he was not equipped to fix my tv. He left and I immediately cancelled my trial membership. When I received my credit card statement this month, The trial membership had been cancelled as requested, however, on 12/31 there was a charge for a full years membership. When I called about the error, I was transferred to different departments. When I finally landed in the right area, I began to explain my problem and she promptly hung up on me! I would not recommend this service at all. You would do better finding home repairs on your own.

Was very with pleased with my Home Advisor experience as well as the professionalism and quality craftsmanship of the home improvement company that I was contacted by.
I went online to find a yard care person for lawn aeration. I was immediately contacted by a company for service. I have used HomeAdvisor several times for different projects and have always received timely information and help.
Home advisor referred me to 2 plumbers with high recommendations. I had talked to 2 other plumbers, but was so impressed with their first recommendation that we hired him immediately.
The contractor communicated well and I got exactly what I wanted in a timely manner.
Our pool builder was defrauding customers and had filed bankruptcy, yet Homebuilder gave them great ratings.
The builder stole over $50k from us and Homebuilder has done nothing.

Needed a repair to a chimney stucco project. Fast response and service. First time user and satisfied.
HomeAdvisor gave me list of business I might never have known about.
Provided all i needed to know and made it easy to contact service
I would use this service again
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
