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.

Knew his job, went right to work and was finished in less than 1 hour
The company recommended by HomeAdvisor, performed the painting job, very well I would use them again. Thank You for having them contact me.
Found a great insulation contractor with very little effort. I was really dreading the whole process and am delighted with how easy it was. I trusted the very positive reviews for the contractor that I'd selected and he was awesome. Will definitely use the site again.
Outstanding knowledge on our propane fireplace. Very nice and polite guy!
Excellent and will call back in the spring to do more painting. Very good detail painters
Friendly people listened to my needs and paying and they agreed
My experience with C $ S Fence Co. Was a very pleasant one. They do quality work at an affordable price. They were on time and did not rush the job. We have received multiple compliments on the fence. The entire team is vey personable: office staff, Larry and the installers.
Luis Fuentes of Horizon Solar Electric did a great job at a very reasonable price. As it stands, we look forward to using his services again.
I contacted Angie's List. How I ended up getting connected to HomeAdvisor, I don't know. I feel lucky that I got connected to Adam, the handyman professional. That aside, it was never explained to me why HomeAdvisor got involved. I looked at 3 candidates and then kept hearing from others that the site contacted. I did not appreciate that.
Came quickly did a very good job well satisfied will call again thank you very much
Thought I was reaching out to one company, well about 12 calls, repeated calls later, was to much to deal with, my fault for not realizing it was a service sent out to many companies. It worked out, got a good company and job already completed, hated the ongoing calls
Needed a roofer and ASAP. Home advisor immediately provided contacts
I had a leak caused by a fallen tree from a wind storm. The day before the appointment, the repairman called to confirm. He asked me if I HAD A LADDER. He found two holes in the roof in which he temporarily patched. He took pictures of the damage on his cell phone. I asked him to forward them to me for my insurance claim. Never heard from him again. Calls and texts go unanswered. Home Advisor emails claim they will "contact the repairman," but he doesn't respond to them, either, yet I keep getting emails from Home Advisor asking how my experience went and how is their customer service. Just typical automated customer service lip service with no intention of helping or resolving the matter. Angie should be ashamed of herself.

Good, but would be better if I could review all contractors before they contact me and choose the one I want.
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
