Why does HomeAdvisor charge a fee?
Service professionals specify the type of work they do and the geography they serve. HomeAdvisor provides new customer leads that match these requests and service professionals pay a fee for each lead they receive. These fees do not affect your estimate.
Is HomeAdvisor worth using?
HomeAdvisor is effective for contractors who are just starting out and need to establish a loyal client base. It's also a helpful resource for contractors who hit a slow season and need to pick up some additional business. The obvious downside to using HomeAdvisor as a contractor is the high cost tied to leads.
What is the cost of HomeAdvisor?
The HomeAdvisor membership costs around $300 annually, plus the cost of each project lead averaging anywhere between $15 to $60 per lead.
