    I worked with this company and the call that I received were either fake or it was renters not even homeowners. I would tell the customers that I was calling through Porch. They didn’t even know who this company was. They just scammed me for my money and I never got any calls. That were actually good leads. Anytime that I will try to get my money back, they would come up with some excuse I wouldn’t get reimbursed. Bad company all the way around.

    I signed up with Porch hoping to get real construction leads, but it’s been a complete waste of time and money. Most of the “leads” I received were either fake, had wrong contact info, or the homeowner never even requested service in the first place. Out of all the leads I paid for, almost none turned into actual jobs. Don’t waste your time and money!

I never received the policy so I found out the there are limits to how much they pay and don’t cover multiple unit buildings when both boilers died. They didn’t even return my unearned premium when they canceled the policy after filing the claim. Get a copy of and read the policy BEFORE you buy.

    Don't waste your time or money. I have been paying $62 a month for a year. Called because my AC went out on Wednesday. They told me they need 72 business hours and the following Thursday and Friday were considered a holiday. Waited a whole week in 90 degrees for a technician. The technician came and made things worse, the AC came on but now it leaked. Called the technician back and they said they would come back that Friday. Never heard from them.

    Called all day Monday and Tuesday and they never answered. Called the warranty company back and told them the issue. They said they also couldn't reach the technician and if they couldn't reach him they would assign someone else. Called back 2 days later they state the leak is a NEW issue and they will have to assign someone else and they filed a claim that day. It is July 3rd. So 72 business hours is July 9th. I called 2 days ago. Why wasn't the new claim made then? Why did I have to call back and follow up for the claim to be filed? I called June 16th to begin with so over 3 weeks no AC in 90 degrees. And the person I spoke to on the phone was just mellow and didn't see the issue with them waiting 2 days to file my claim right before a holiday. Just put the $62 in an account for when something breaks because you will expire from heat stroke dealing with this company.

    Hired Brother T Contractor to work on my deck and unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing. Mr. ** failed to install screws in the composite decking board, making the structure, unsafe. I reach out to him multiple times via text and calls. He initially said he would fix the issues, but repeatedly made excuses and blamed someone else for his poor workmanship.

    I requested to have some curtain rods and curtains installed on 7 windows. I had all of the necessary supplies and a ladder for them to use. Two guys came and reassured me that everything would be put up and all was well, etc. Well, I don't think either one had any experience in hanging rods or curtains. The measurements they took were not consistent and they did not use a stud finder. They had to re-do a rod which left holes in the walls. They said that my ceiling was "uneven" which it is not. They even tried to tell me at one point that I purchased the wrong rod. This turned out to be another error in measurement. They told me that a different team would have to come back to fill and paint, etc.

    There is still a rod that looks off but I didn't want them adding holes. After further inspection, I found one spot without a dry wall anchor and a visible hole from where they tried to install a middle bracket in a larger window. I should have researched this company more and read the reviews but here we are. I have attached some pictures of the freshly painted wall that will now need fixing. These guys were not professional and smelled like they had just hot boxed in the car before coming into my house. I like to give people a chance to prove themselves but I will not be contacting the company ever again. Use them at your own risk.

    I’m leaving this review specifically for the home warranty service offered through Porch.com (Porch Warranty), not the general contractor referral service. I submitted a warranty claim in December 2024 for a malfunctioning stove and dishwasher. A technician—Quentin from Parker Appliance Repair—was sent out multiple times but was unable to repair either appliance. After repeated attempts to reach the technician for follow-up (with no response), I emailed Porch on 1/29/25 and received no reply.

    When I finally got someone on the phone, I was told the dishwasher claim had been closed, even though it wasn’t fixed. Eventually, I spoke with an analyst (possibly named Pam) who said they’d issue me a refund check for both appliances, since the stove also couldn’t be repaired. I was told on 2/24/25 that the check would arrive in 2–3 weeks. Since then, I’ve made multiple follow-up calls. On 3/24/25, I was told the check hadn’t even been printed. On 3/25, I was told the claim was being expedited, but again, no call back. On 3/26, I spoke with Fernando, who told me the check was with the finance department and might take another 30 days. When I asked to speak with a supervisor or the finance department, I was denied both times. Fernando was also incredibly dismissive and talked over me the entire call.

    This experience has been exhausting, unprofessional, and unacceptable. Porch Warranty has made verbal commitments they haven’t kept, and the customer service has been consistently poor. If you’re considering Porch’s home warranty service—I strongly advise against it. I’ve spent over 3 months just trying to get a refund for appliances their techs couldn’t fix. Total waste of time and energy.

I pushed and got My Buddy Vic and Lia to call and Call and Call until I was SUCKERED INTO THE V.I.P. and sent in a large sum of money into a VIP account for leads. 1st in line etc.

    4 years later my $1500 plus account is now at its remaining $350 balance and I just got a email stating it will expire tomorrow and they will keep my remaining balance. Mind you. I have emailed and called in and off for years on top of numerous times ironically the last few weeks... 4 years absolutely positively zero projects... Zero zero zero... When I was expecting/opening/leads from Day 1 I did immediately... I was on the ball! What a bunch of no-good cowardly crooks... This is disgusting! This is wrong! This is criminal!!

    I have used Porch when they were newer back about 6 yrs ago. And they were pretty good about being reasonable. However, as they grew they became less reasonable and more legalistic. So I stopped using them for a while. I give them another try after leaving for 2-3 yrs this season. I started with their pay as you go lead opportunities. Sadly the quality was not great, so testing the waters was not good. NO ROI. Porch has a auto refund policy which is good. However life doesn't go according to policies, does it. I left them over a lead denial. Policy is 2 calls 2 text within 72 hrs. That's fine. I called 3 times and was within 10 mins over the 72hrs to send the next text. Now mind you this was either way a unresponsive lead. Porch knew this. I asked that they be reasonable about their intention of the policy. They want their contractors to make an effort, no problem! I agree.

    However this is where the Integrity of a company (or the tires met the road so to speak) shows in their actions. They're unwilling to be reasonable which shows me they're more concerned about their bottom line than our relationship as a customer. I left them due to their lack of Integrity they showed me today. This is the very issue when Porch becomes so large and so corporate, like the Home Advisors out there. I don't have time to chase supervisors or go up the chain of command over something that should be simple for them to take care of. I wouldn't recommend at this time.

    We are in the Green Pond Area of West Anderson, S.C. We hired Brad and his team from Outdoor Living through Porch.com to resolve a serious water management issue. Brad came out the same day, made a recommendation, quoted a price, built a retaining wall, and tied in four roof downspouts, moving all water to the road drainage. Others were called but did not even show up. There was no cost overrun, and the end product was far better than I had anticipated. Not having them bid on your project would be a mistake. His crew was reliable, friendly, efficient, and attentive to detail. Every single block was installed using a level, so the wall is not only effective but also visually and aesthetically pleasing. The lake that appeared in our backyard every rainfall has disappeared.

    The lower part of the hill was leveled and followed by a two-foot layer of white stone. Special 75# interlinked blocks followed and were leveled one by one using a level. Behind the wall were placed, a plastic moisture barrier, irrigation tubing, and backfill. The openings in the blocks were hand-filled with additional stone to add weight and further stability. This was followed by concrete caps along the top of the wall, creating a beautiful finished product. The areas above and below the wall were planted with over 750 juniper ground cover plants, again laid one by one using a level to measure a consistent distance between plants. The entire project, when completed, was a work of art. Grass seed and fertilizer were spread to cover adjacent work areas, and sod was laid in an area that previously had no grass due to the constant flooding. Anyone wishing to take a look at this project with before and after photos is welcome.
