I get a call from Aimee ** asking to speak with me. And I say "yes this is me". She asked if I was looking to build a garage. I said yes. But I noticed this woman has got some kind of attitude problem. She acted as if we were dating or we were married or something. What I noticed was Aimee wanted me to answer her questions the way she expected me to answer her. I was not allowed to ask any questions to Aimee. And you could tell her getting upset just seconds after the conversation started. The phone call lasted somewhere around 20 seconds and she sighed and then rudely hung up on me for no reason other than the fact that she was impatient and had no respect to who the paying customer is.
I would recommend that HomeAdvisor replace Aimee ** with someone who has the patience and mental fortitude to speak to a customer with integrity and respect. I am very disappointed with Aimee ** and the fact that HomeAdvisor allow this kind of character roam the Project Advisor department. I would like her supervisor to call me. So that I can speak with someone who realizes that some of us work graveyard shift and don't like to wake up only to be rudely hung up on 20 seconds later.

HomeAdvisor is a referral service; therefore, I cannot provide photos with this review. We needed referrals for a master bath remodel and for adding another bathroom in our basement. We contacted HomeAdvisor for some leads. We did hire one of those leads, but unfortunately, the experience did not go well at all. We have repeatedly attempted to leave a review on HomeAdvisor's site, but because the review is not a glowing one, HomeAdvisor is refusing to post it (despite the fact that we have physical proof of our claims in the form of inspection red tags). We have been in communication with HomeAdvisor about this matter, and we get the runaround every time.
At first, they said the contractor had ten days to respond and disprove. A month later, the review is still not posted because they haven't heard from the contractor, and they will not say when - or even if - the review will ever be posted. Apparently contractors have an unlimited amount of time to respond, which means the negative reviews never make the cut. Their website clearly states that all honest reviews - both positive and negative - are allowed, but this simply is not true. It's obvious they are siding with the contractor because that's where HomeAdvisor makes its money.
The consumer is helpless to warn others about the business practices of some of their "vetted" referrals. So far, this referral's mistakes and code violations have cost us close to $5000.00, and the meter is still running. To add insult to injury, HomeAdvisor is preventing us from helping our neighbors avoid a similar disaster. I will *never* use HomeAdvisor again.

Both contractors recommended by HomeAdvisor seemed reputable and honest. The contractor I chose completed the job and provided excellent customer service.
Reviewed March 8, 2016
I have used HomeAdvisor for a couple contractors and have had a great experience but when I came across a contractor who gave me very poor customer service I did not rate that contractor very well but accurate. HomeAdvisor would not post the rating because they said I did not hire the contractor when in fact I did. The company was a maid service and over the phone we agreed upon a price for the first visit, and a price and day for weekly visits thereafter, and set a date and time for service.
On the date of service the maid service never showed up or called. I called and left a message and got no return call. Giving the maid service the benefit of the doubt I called later that evening to see if an emergency occurred that prevented service and was told that "oh I forgot. I was suppose to work for you but I will call you first thing in the morning". Dare I say they never called in the morning as promised. I then placed a rating that identified poor scheduling and customer service which homeadvisor would not post. This seems to be the way a lot of maid companies hire work by phone and then they come out. When I ask homeadvisor were there any other complaints about them not showing up or not being prompt, they said they could not answer that question.

The contractors I've found on Home Advisor have all been very professional. I would recommend this site to anyone I know doing a home repair or upgrade. I went outside this site for one part of the project and was completely unsatisfied with the company, and had a bad experience with them. I am glad this site exists and does the hard work for me, so I know when I get a contractor on this site I will be getting a professional contractor doing work worth the value.

They contacted my husband because he has a painting business. They told him if he set up a website he would get job leads to enhance his business. Here's his own words: This company "HomeAdvisor" has high case sales people who will lie to Contractors, feeding on them, their goals and sales approach is all B.S. Don't trust what they tell you about leads that they send you on because they're all fake. I believe these leads they send you somehow work for the company because I recalled a voice from another call from the same day. When you figure them out and call back you can never get back in touch and they will send you in circles and charge you for a service you never got. Very unprofessional. I was suppose to be charged $250 per month, my first invoice was over a grand and that's within only two weeks, they should be reported to the Attorney General.

At that point my schedule also changed so I let him know that I would not be available for a Friday appointment but that the next week would work for me. His reply was that he was "confused" because I had initially mentioned a Friday appointment. At that point instinct told me that this "handyman" was not the type of person I would want in my home so I contacted him via email and explained that I would not be requiring his services. I politely thanked him for his time.
Today I received an email that stated, it was fine with him "because I didn't have my ** together anyways". This person is rude, crude and I'm shocked that HomeAdvisor would not vet their so called professionals more closely before referring them to the public. I will never again use the HomeAdvisor website and plan to warn everyone I know about this unsavory individual and terrible experience using HomeAdvisor. This situation transpired in the City of Kyle, TX. This complaint is being filed in regard to my HomeAdvisor request for a handyman in Kyle, Tx.

Yesterday, my wife was just looking at the possibility of doing duct cleaning in our home, as well as hiring someone to do some house cleaning. She was very clear that she was JUST PLANNING. However, in the last 24 hours our phone has been ringing off the hook. HomeAdvisor is a scam if all they do is shoot out phone numbers to a variety of vendors in order to circumvent both the TCPA and no call lists with both KS and the Federal Government. I will be filing no call violations against every one of the companies that have called, as we have never done business with them and they do not have written permission to use autodialer technology to call us.

I made a request online and never heard from anyone about the job when they claim will at least 3 responses. I contacted HomeAdvisor and a rep called me. She promised I would get 3 responses the next day - No one responded. Customer Service called and told me they would get me 3 the next day and an email from HomeAdvisor as to who to contact if I did not. I got no responses from contractors and no email from HomeAdvisor. HomeAdvisor cannot be depended on and you can't believe a word they say.

When I decided to remodel instead of sell, I wasn't sure where to begin. Since I was the GC when we built this house, I knew I would want at least 3 estimates on each phase of the work. I was not about to pay ANY website for contractor recommendations, so I started with HomeAdvisor. Each time I used Home Advisor, I got several contractors; some called immediately, some not at all. Of course the ones who called me got first crack at the estimate. I have not been disappointed by any of the contractors I hired, and in this day of poor customer service, each have been awesome to work with.

HomeAdvisor may be good for consumer since they get a free service, but for contractors who pay for those customer's leads, it is absolutely disgraceful!!! They charge you per lead in order for you to get a phone number and email address for the customer, which is fine. But when the customer changes their mind or purposely puts in the incorrect contact information because they get gun shy about giving out their contact info, HomeAdvisor does not stand behind their professionals and instead just takes their money any way. Even after putting in a credit request because a phone number and email address is incorrect, they make one attempt to contact the consumer. If they don't get ahold of them, they deny the request. You can never resubmit the request for credit and you end up paying $70 for a lead that didn't go to anyone. Customer service agents can't even relay calls and have hung up on us several times. The only way to get someone partially competent is to speak with a supervisor and even then it is hit or miss. Contractors, spend your money elsewhere!!!

The work was done fine - but it unbalanced the symmetry of the home. I don't have to specify the work detail to a contractor.

HomeAdvisor is one of the worst companies you can buy leads from! We have been using Angie's List and Thumbtack for years, and HomeAdvisor (AKA ServiceMagic) is not with the time to even consider! We have tried them when they still were "ServiceMagic". On average out of 10 leads we would actually speak with 3 and close 1-2 if we are lucky. They kept calling us for years to sign us up for HomeAdvisor, and we finally gave it a try 3 months ago. Lots of promises. Now, after we spent over $1000 in setup fees ($350) and leads too many "Dead" leads, and too many very expensive leads, that not worth what they say it worth. For example we just got charged today $112 for Siding lead, that was a $150 repair.
We called many times in the last three months and ask for money back. You get charged "immediately" after they send you a lead (and three more contractors, you do the math). But if you can't contact homeowner for any reason, they don't issue "Refunds", they issue "Credits". Be prepared for your new full time job, because unlike Thumbtack for example they don't refund you credits when you didn't get in touch with customer. You will have to call and ask for it, and good luck getting it! We asked for cancellation, and asked for money back. They said they can only give us credit back. Are you kidding me? Last week we had $350 worth of dead leads and ask for refunds. This week they charging us again. We spent $1000 and generated $1100 on jobs it's generated.
Angie's List and Thumbtack is the place to go if you looking for good leads. We have contacted company and asked to talk to Supervisor, recorded several conversation, have been promised that someone will call back today, already disputed charges with our bank, BBB is the next step! Homeowners please realize: when you submit request it is free to you, but Contractor already getting charged for it, and will have to build it in his price! If they getting charged $120 per "exact match" how do you think it will affect $500 repair?
You will pay extra $120! And Angie's List by the way only $15 per year. It doesn't cost contractors to be there! I added cost of leads that generated $1000 in sales. If I would spend $1000 on Google, Angie's List or Thumbtack my return would be $10,000 in gross sales. Our closing rate always has been 50-70% and our prices are good, but services like HomeAdvisor screwing both homeowners and contractors, wasting a lot of time, and I think have to removed from the market for the better world. I want all my money back! Stay away if you can!
