Homestars has made navigation much more difficult. Now I can't look up an individual company without having a specific job in process. It used to be more user-friendly.

Elite Appliance Service did a great job repairing my washing machine. Although the issue couldn’t be fixed on the first visit because a part was needed, the team kept me updated and quickly arranged a follow-up appointment.

The technician arrived on time, was professional and friendly, and completed the repair efficiently. The washer is now working perfectly.

Excellent communication and customer service throughout the process. Highly recommended!

Easy peasy

The provider I eventually found was great. No complaints. A dedicated category more specific to pool heat pumps would have made connecting with the right provider a little easier.

I hired a landscaping company based on HomeStars reviews however I contacted the company privately and not thru HomeStars. I wish to leave a review for the company I hired to warn others about the landscaping company which took on a job they could NOT handle. HomeStars will not allow me to leave a review even if I produce an invoice from the company. Companies are falsely advertising on HomeStars and claiming they are able to competently do the work when they can’t.

We’ve used JJ Windows Covering before

We’ve used JJ Windows Covering before, so we were happy to work with them again. This time, we chose Zebra blinds for our office, and they turned out great. They look modern, work beautifully for light control, and the whole process was easy from start to finish. From helping us choose the right product to measuring and installation, everything was handled smoothly and professionally. We’re really happy with the result!
