My Experience with Home Advisor

7/26/2018

Deceptive sales

Covert Cleaning is a Screened & Approved HomeAdvisor Pro
Be very careful about advertising on Home Advisor!  You only have 30 days to cancel so I am stuck with a bill!

The sales guy knew I only wanted commercial bids for my town of Spartanburg SC and I wanted regular weekly cleaning jobs. My first opportunity came in for a bid. It was for Greenville 30 miles away and it was a one time clean!  Not good.   I only need one commercial job. 

I called them to cancel and the guy talked me out of doing it right then, he said he could just turn the bids off.  I figured I could think about the things he said for a few days. Well I missed the 30 day cancellation window and now I owe more money even though my credit card gave me a credit!! 

I am not happy!  You cannot get a customized setting on your bids. You get whatever they want to send you at $35 or $40 a pop beside the $280 sign up fee. 

I believe you do better building your good reputation by word-of-mouth advertising or just listing your business on Google My Business for free.  Facebook advertising can work too or by advertising on Google with ads.  Offer your customers a credit or a free cleaning if they find you another regular account. 

Save your money unless you are a large company.  Home Advisor is not for the small cleaning business.
