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.

Valencia and her Team are excellent! They are fast, professional and efficient. As the General Manager of a large auto dealership in San Diego I know quality workmanship and appreciate great customer service. That is the way Valencia does it in our home-at very reasonable rates!
I went on line and contacted a specific contractor. I did not go on Home Advisor. Apparently Home Advisor saw my contact to this specific contractor and contacted Henry Arguetas and forwarded my information to him. He immediately contacted me. The contractor who I contacted directly did not get back to me. I met with Henry Arguetas and was very impressed. I have worked with contractors for 40 years and Henry Arguetas is by far the best. The work he did for me was excellent. I feel very lucky.
Superior from customer service work would recommend to all
Afer contacting home advisor I quickly received a call from a company that I ended up hiring and having excellent experience.
Always have several options to choose from. Good source of finding people for whatever job needed
Received a call almost immediately from one of the two potential garage door companies I saw on HomeAdvisor. R&T Garage Doors. He came out the next morning, gave me a quote, ordered my doors, kept me up to date on delivery until they arrived one week later. Doors were installed. My husband and I are very happy.
It was easy to enter my request. I was given 4 choices for a flooring repair issue. One of them called within minutes. A second contacted me later that day. Very professional people. I will use Angie's list again.
Home Advisor gave a good variety of businesses to contact for estimates. Easy to find qualified business.
Home advisor helps you find pros that do a great job at affordable prices
Easy to use, prompt response with pros in my area. Will keep this site in mind for future projects. Home Advisor stays on top of the pro request to make sure the customer was satisfied. The vetting of pros on their site is thorough and reassuring.
Excellent. Quick response, in within two days. Quick, clean professional. Works perfectly.
I scheduled work based on estimate (which I verified with an email, documenting job). They showed up, said job was bid too low. Called the owner, before I could request a counter estimate, he went into a "Yelling Rant" why it was too low. Left multiple messages with the "Rep" who gave me the estimate, could not get a word in with his "rambling", call ended with him screaming F bombs at me, ended call, told him to have a nice day.
I did end up hiring good one and got the job done. The "Mark Hawley Tree Service" experience was "so horrible" that I could not give a higher rating.
I've picked a professional in the site, however, HA insisted in offering me their "fixed price" service. Looks like it's fashionable nowadays, but HA should not be a platform and a vendor competing in this platform at the same time.
Easy to choose from the great list of qualified companies. Nice to know each company had ratings that were based on actual customers.
Excellent experience would use again! We got professional service.
I was sent ample contractors to choose from, they all were different in their own way, after time passed home advisor checked in to see if i needed more. This gave me the opportunity to make an inform decision on the personality i wanted to work with.
From navigation to choosing the business, everything went well.
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
