consumer testimonials
HomeAdvisor takes the guess work out of finding a contractor. Not only can I narrow in on the exact job I need, HomeAdvisor also chooses the contractor for me based on those needs. - Ashley T.
The pros on HomeAdvisor have already been screened — and they can't be in the network without being screened. That gives you peace of mind knowing that you're going to get a good company, they are going to be professional, and they'll do the job right.
We really like that HomeAdvisor shows us how the contractor is rated by others. You get a sense of how well the contractor has performed, so you have confidence hiring someone.
With HomeAdvisor, you're getting contractors that are available in your neighborhood who actually want your business. HomeAdvisor contractors, are eager to talk to me. They call me within mere minutes to set up an appointment. They're punctual, they're excited, and they're efficient.
service professional testimonials
Instant leads. The day I joined, I started getting leads, and I was able to talk to potential customers that very same day. That is a game-changer.
HomeAdvisor’s rating system is a great tool for not only me, but for the customer as well. It’s important because the customers are able to kind of pre-screen someone by seeing their reviews, and they can make the choice based on the reviews.
The screening process that HomeAdvisor has is a really good thing. It means my customers don’t have to worry. They can relax and breathe easy because they know the pros have already been pre-screened.
HomeAdvisor leads are kind of like the throttle on your car. You can generate what you need to generate, or you can back it off and say, whoa; we can’t handle any more jobs. Because you don’t want to get more work than you can do handle and do a good job with.
