Thumbtack Reviews

Shout out to, Erickson Electric, The Best!! This company is own by Joseph Erickson. This gentleman communicates very well is very polite, friendly, honest, and very fair with his prices. He has many years of experience under his belt. I have hired him the past to him to do small jobs at my house with no issues whatsoever. Then I offered him a big job, which consisted him rewiring a house and upgrading the electrical. He proved himself. Joe is the best, he enjoys what he does and pays attention to detail and works well with others. He disconnected the electric panel, solar and removed all the old wires. Safety is priority for him. If you need any kind of electrical work done, don’t hesitate to call him. Joe is the man for the job.

A request for a piano tuner was very quickly answered by Miguel McKenzie of McKenzie Piano Tuning. My initial questions were answered on the phone, and an appointment was made Miguel was prompt, professional and friendly. I peppered him with questions about the piano itself and the process of tuning it. He patiently answered and is obviously conscientious and thoroughly knowledgeable about his craft. Additionally, I felt perfectly comfortable leaving him alone in the house. A totally positive experience.

Needed real estate photos for a new listing and checked Thumbtack and found "Frame and Fable Photo LLC." Within minute received a response from Tim the owner. Answered a few questions and he quoted me a workable fee and scheduled him all within 24 hours. The photos were excellent, more than needed and all well taken. I'd certainly use Tim once again when needed.

I recently hired Old North Fencing and Construction to build my fence on my property. Paul ** came out and with the help of his brother, Lionel did a GREAT job on my fence. They were prompt and professional. I would recommend them to anyone looking for both fencing and construction. Thanks Guys!

I was in need of someone trustworthy to clean a relative's apartment that is located 2 hours away from where I live (and within a private home). I've never used an app to find a professional before and I was super nervous about filling out the request form. Once I did, I got an immediate response from Delma from Souza Cleanings. She couldn't have been more wonderful! She was willing to start the job as soon as I was ready, she took her own time to go and look at the space prior to the quote, and let me tell you.. This was not an easy job. I'm still amazed by how she managed to get the entire job done in one day and it was beyond perfect! She even folded the towels in a decorative pattern! I can't recommend Delma highly enough. I plan to share her contact information with relatives who live in the area. Thank you Thumbtack for helping to put me in touch with this lovely woman!

I have been with Thumbtack for over 6 years now. They are a rip-off, they provide you with fake leads so they can charge you. Denied refunds for jobs you do not offer. Disconnect your call when calling asking about the misleads and charges. I offer BBQ. Please see attachment for an example of a charge.

So happy with 5 Star Shower. They were very professional and I would recommend them to anyone looking to change a bathtub into a shower.

Thumbtack is not a reputable "third-party" platform as they do not examine their advertised contractors, nor verify their competency, experience or professionalism. I feel prey to one of their advertised so-called professional "household goods" movers. 2 Son's Transport, 1178 S. Shadow Drive, Mount Pleasant, South Carolina 29464 advertised on their platform, and, in short, they were inexperienced, damaged my furniture, rental home and denied culpability when my family witnessed their incompetence. Their customer service complaint department is laughable. They want your documentation and photographs but in the end they will sidestep any responsibility although they claim to understand a customer's dissatisfaction and financial loss. Avoid using the "Thumbtack" App at all costs.

I used Thumbtack to find contractors for over 2 dozens of projects in 3 years. It was a good way to pick contractors quickly. However, often time, some of the contractors were not licensed and would show up the first day briefly and leave his non-English speaking workers behind for me to take care. Thumbtack responded well by resolving an issue caused by a contractor who left without finishing jobs but demanding full payment. When I asked for license of on contractor I hired, Thumbtack prevented me from leaving reviews for any future contractors. That means that Thumbtack wants to keep sloppy contractors so that they keep on making profits at the expense of customers' time and money.

RAM KC Remodeling Services LLC- Erick **…..STAY AWAY. Here is my experience. I wanted to prepare my house to sell. I hired RAM KC Remodeling Services LLC- Erick ** to paint the interior of my home for $22,500.00. That included all of the trim, walls, cabinets, sheetrock repairs, etc. The quality of the work was 7-8 out of 10. The big problem: At the end of the job Erick handed me a bill for almost $8000.00 MORE than his estimate. (During the job Erick was constantly trying to sell me on what he called “extras”: the included items included on the bid….trim, cabinets, etc. It became very annoying).
