I am also a screened & approved professional by Home Advisor. Home Advisor uses a rigorous screening process to screen businesses and business owners/principals. They perform a thorough screening when a business applies to join their network, requiring state-level trade licensing when applicable, require that pros maintain an average rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars, and when customers have concerns that a pro in their network doesn't meet these standards, you can contact them to start an investigation. They're committed to maintaining a network of trusted home service businesses, and those who don't meet their criteria will be rejected or promptly removed from our network.
