HomeAdvisor website was easy to navigate and presented several options. My sump pump died on a Saturday when rain was expected, so my needs were immediate. I was most impressed that my phone rang within seconds of submitting my plumbing needs request. Kudos!

This work was done at my office. We have six ballasts replaced. The only small delay was that electrician did not have the parts with him but it did not take too much time to get them from his shop or an electrical supply company. He offered other services but we did not have any repairs extra to be done.

This was the first time I used HomeAdvisor. I had a great experience overall. I would use the service again. I especially like the online scheduling feature to set specific face to face meeting times with contractors. I also appreciated the fact that the HA team followed up with me to make sure all of the contractors reached out to me.

Do you understand how the Law of Attraction manages our world? If you do, then you will understand that this is truly a remarkable, timely service to be able to organize a simple request for a work project on a dime! One sincere request for a quality, affordable cleaning service was sent; and very quickly I received three phone calls from three highly qualified companies! You get what you give... and HomeAdvisor is certainly well aligned with their customers' desires and requests! Thank you!

They did an initial lawn mowing & grooming as well as trimming. I have a large lot & there was a lot of debris & rough areas that were in need of tending due to the winter overlap; due to large majestic oaks as well as scrub oaks & ground cover debris. There are also areas of rocks & walkways that needed grooming because they were covered in dead leaves. They addressed all of those areas.

This was my first time using HomeAdvisor. I learned of this service from a television ad. I contacted three service providers. One was out of area, the next was very flaky, unprofessional, unprepared for work I needed done, the third was perfect! Very professional, did a great job, and I will hire him again for other cleaning jobs. So, as with all contracting work, it takes some time and effort, but I would say HomeAdvisor put me in touch, eventually, with the right service provider for the job (Window Washing).

As a contractor, we have a different spin on HomeAdvisor. While the service is free to consumers, they make their money using dishonest tactics and by hosing the business owners who are trying to make an honest living. We've owned our landscaping company for over 16 years. We were contacted by HomeAdvisor to become one of their "exclusive" contractors, telling us that they do extensive background checks and only accept a small number of businesses who meet their standards. Once we agreed to join, then they told us about the $1,200 "administrative fee" they charge to help cover their costs. We later found out there's no background check - they never had us sign releases (required for legitimate background checks), they never asked for references or customer contacts, and they never called anyone or made inquiries of any kind. The $1,200 fee was bogus.
We were then required to participate in an online "training session" that was supposed to help us learn how to use the service. We quickly realized it's a canned, pre-recorded session made to sound like you're in an online conference, when really it's a sales gimmick to buy their "support program." We never asked or signed up for this service, but later discovered they were charging us $60 a month for "support" we never received. We asked numerous times for it to be cancelled, which took 8 months with no refund of the charges. There is no actual training offered, or even online tutorials, that ever showed us how to use the service.
As far as the bids for customer service, I do have to give HomeAdvisor credit. They have a service that could potentially work for contractors if there was a fair and equitable way to earn bids. Instead, their current business practices are a disgrace and serve only them. First, there is no background check. Consumers not be given a false sense of security that their contractor has met any special requirements. Anyone who pays the $1,200 gets accepted. Second, we were not part of a small "exclusive" group of contractors, but were competing against a huge pool of other contractors. We were grossly misled about the pool of contractors being selected, and there was certainly no indication of any quality control.
This is the kicker, and how HomeAdvisor truly makes their money: Every consumer request for work gets sent to every HomeAdvisor contractor who offers the service requested. Consider the number of contractors that are given the consumer's personal information, including a home address and phone number. Not a small, exclusive group of verified contractors - but thousands of contractors who pay to get on the list. Next, HomeAdvisor charges each contractor for that one bid. We were charged anywhere from $24 up to $65 FOR EACH BID. They required a checking debit card to be added to our account, and they automatically charged us for every bid they sent.
Understand that hundreds, if not thousands, of contractors are being sent the same bid, and each one pays - whether you get the bid or not. Do the math: one bid sent to say 100 contractors with each one charged $40 = HomeAdvisor just made $4,000 by pushing a button. Do that ten times a day, that's $40,000. In reality they send thousands of birds every day and they're making billions.
To exemplify their greed, HomeAdvisor sends a ridiculous number of bids in the beginning, with several of them hundreds of miles away from our service area, and some were in other states. They said we set up our account wrong and were not going to refund the charges, when they are the ones who actually set up the account with inaccurate information that just happened to line their pockets.
The pool of contractors was so big that we rarely ever had a chance to win a bid. There's a number of contractors out there who have someone in the office who will immediately answer every bid that comes in, forcing out any of the competition. In 12 months, we were charged thousands of dollars for the four bids we actually won.
The worst tactic is how difficult it is for a contractor to close their account. When you call, you're told by the agent that they aren't authorized to close accounts. They can only submit the request, put our account on hold, and someone will call us within 48 hours to complete the cancellation process. They wouldn't tell us when they're calling, so unless we answered our phone 24/7 we could easily miss the call. Or they would call in the middle of the night. Or they wouldn't call at all. After 48 hours they would reactivate our account and start sending us bids again. It took us over 6 months to finally get our account closed, which only happened after our debit card expired and they could no longer charge us.
Consumers need to know that this "free" service is being paid for off the backs of honest, hard working contractors. HomeAdvisor's business practices are deplorable, and for a fully automated system, they're making billions using sneaky and dishonest tactics. If you want to find a good contractor, take the time to look locally, ask your friends and neighbors who they use, or stop and ask when you see someone doing a good job. Good, old fashioned word of mouth - a truly "free" method for all involved.
Hi Lisa, We're sorry you feel this way about our business. We're concerned you may be confusing aspects of our service with another one, as many of the statements you have made are incorrect.
The membership fee you paid was $347.98, there is no 'administrative fee' of $1,200. We absolutely background check our pros, you may find more information about that process here: http://www.homeadvisor.com/screening/. Leads are not sent to all pros who offer the service, they are sent to a maximum of four, while many are sent to fewer. As we are a nation-wide company, it would not be a sound strategy to send a lead to every eligible business on our network. While your coverage area is completely up to you, leads that come in from outside of this desired area are eligible for credit.
When you request to cancel our service, your account is placed on hold, and will not be taken off this hold, until you speak with an account specialist. Account specialists do not work 24 hours a day and will make multiple attempts to contact you during our normal business hours. You are also more than welcome to call Customer Care and be transferred to the next available specialist in real time.
We hope this provides some clarification about our business and your experience. If you would like to speak with a rep, please reach out to emailus@homeadvisor.com and we will follow up. -HASupport

Contractors, be careful when signing up for HomeAdvisor services. HomeAdvisor does not vet the customer referral. They collect because they don't charge the consumer. They rely totally on the customer filling out the applications correctly and that they are not truly looking for a contractor to do the work. Many customers that use the service are fishing and picking the contractors brain, knowing darn well that they're not going to do the work through a contractor. In many cases they plan to do the work themselves. I have over 40 examples of wasted money being spent this way with homeadvisor.
One of my first examples is a gentleman requested a bid for a new custom home. I asked him four questions. Number one "Do you own the property?" Answer was no, not yet. Question two "Do you have an architect?" Answer was no. Question three "Do you have a budget or financing?" Answer no. Question four, "Do you have an idea of the square footage you're interested in building?" and the same answer a customer says no.
Hi Tony, We're sorry to hear about your experience, we do our best to provide you with the tools and opportunities to land more work.

I feel that HomeAdvisor has picked the cream of the crop and I am happy so far with the service from the provider I have picked.

I received a call about lawn aeration within 36 hours. Contractor gave a fair estimate and the final bill was the same. They did a good job. We talked about possible other tasks but I've not heard back from them about that.

I used Angie's List for several years. The individual I found on HomeAdvisor was much more professional than I was able to find on Angie's List. The online interface got me to the list of possibilities quickly and accurately. Well done!

This is not my first time using Homeadvisor.com. Each time it has been very helpful. This recent experience was by far the best when we were put in contact with Air Quality Insights. Excellent experience. I highly recommend Air Quality Insights and of course Homeadvisor.com. I will be using both again.

My new ceiling fan was making a loud humming sound, so I called Sunbelt electric to evaluate the problem and the technician Steven determined that the fan noise was because of the hookup to a dimmer switch instead of a toggle switch. As soon as he replaced the dimmer switch the humming problem was solved! In less than 15 minutes.

Last fall, my deck needed a repair job, I was looking for trustworthy contractor online. HomeAdvisor the online advertisement company impressed me that they had selected and screened the contractors they advertised for. Through their recommendation, I engaged with Dynamic General Contracting Inc in my local area for this project. It turned out that this contractor was a dishonored one who would not fulfill his quote and written contract. Because of this, we had to cancel the contract in last Nov. However, this contractor has refused to return my $700.00 deposit.
As I thought that HomeAdvisor claimed that they have screened these contractors, so I complained to HomeAdvisor about this contractor. However, they said there was nothing they could do about it as this contractor had no longer advertised with HomeAdvisor. However, that is not true, as this contractor has always been on their website until today. All HomeAdvisor cares about is helping contractors find a job and get referral fee from the contractors and don't care about what these contractors do! I wrote a bad review on the contractor on their website, but it has never been shown up!!! Home owners are just their prey! No one should trust this online referral company. It is a scam!!

Needed an electrician. Used HomeAdvisor to locate Pros that serviced my area. I got a call the very next day and set up an appointment for later in the week. Tech was able to come out on time, quote the job and complete the work in about 2 hours time.

Using HomeAdvisor was a definite simplification of searching for the right pro for the job. The reviews were very helpful and within an hour I already had contractors contacting me to start the job. I will definitely use HomeAdvisor again for any of my home improvement needs.

I looked online for a local heater repair/replace company for a heater that died in our rental property, while we live in AZ. It can be difficult to find a local company to offer good service in a timely manner when living in another state and managing the rental ourselves. With HomeAdvisor not only did a find a great company within less than 10 minutes, they hooked us up with a phone call right through the website!
I didn't have to make additional calls, remember numbers, or wait on hold for a time span! Instead, within the less than 10 minutes I was talking with a repair man, who followed up by calling my renter to confirm what the issue was, then I received a call from the owner of the company to talk about pricing packages for what needed to be done, then I received a call from the company to set up financing. It was wonderful to NOT have to be anymore stressed than possible by using Home Advisor to find a GREAT company. This was my very first time ever trying Home Advisor and if I have further needs for my rental property or my home in AZ, I will DEFINITELY contact Home Advisor FIRST!!

Both companies they suggested called promptly. I used one of them (clean gutters and downspouts) with good results. However, I asked for a company to spray for insects; I was given the name of only one company, and a week later am still waiting to hear from them.

Very happy with the recommendations I have received from HomeAdvisor so far. I have used them to find professionals to do a flat roof replacement; remove asbestos pipe and to learn approximate cost of projects. Very happy that their guidance has been there; not sure what I would of have done if HomeAdvisor had not been there.

Repair pipe leak - With water turned off, it was critical to have this work done quickly. HomeAdvisor responded quickly (when two other plumbing companies never called back). Serviceone was the referred service provider and they were excellent. Immediate call back to set up the visit and a first class technician (Felix) who arrived early and was a true professional. Price was more than reasonable and the workmanship was excellent.
