What's New in HomeStars for Homeowners

12.0.1

April 8, 2026

We've fixed a few bugs and improved performance so you can focus on finding the right pro for your job.

User reviews

Trash

This is just trash, not an app

Constant issues with notifications, very few contractors, and responses take several days......

Response from developer

We hear your feedback and sincerely apologize. Our team is actively working on resolving technical bugs and expanding our professional network to improve response times and reliability. We are committed to delivering the experience you expect and deserve.

Mains Contracting Company

Very professional.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback, we're glad you're happy with the company you found through our platform!

Scammer central

Probably one of the worst apps for contractors and “homeowners” because the app is full of scammers and the way that HomeStars “refunds” you after you have been scammed when a “homeowner” shares their contact information is only credited which means that the app gets your money from the card provided and the refund can only be credited. Therefore the job isn’t real, you don’t get a refund and the contractor or business gets taken advantage of. I wouldn’t recommend this app at all. Most of the homeowners aren’t even owners they are just scammers

Response from developer

We sincerely apologize for this experience. We are actively strengthening our homeowner vetting to eliminate fraudulent leads and are reviewing our credit policies to ensure they are fair for our pros. Please contact us directly so we can investigate these specific leads and work to resolve this for you.

Terrible app

HomeStars needs to completely overhaul this app. We need to be able to also search for Pros and see there reviews without putting a requisition request through.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback and we're sorry you didn't have a positive experience. We do have a directory feature on our platform where you can browse the professional profiles based on category and location before posting a service request. Visit the link below and scroll to All Services, then choose the relevant category. https://www.homestars.com/find-professionals

Its a scam

They will connect you with people overseas that will take your deposit with no intention of ever doing the job.

Response from developer

We're sorry to hear about your experience with a company you connected with on HomeStars and the subsequent issues you encountered. It's not what we expect of pros using our platform. At HomeStars, we strive to ensure quality and reliability in our network of pros. Despite our extensive vetting process, issues may still arise as seen in your case.  If you haven't already, please feel free to reach out to us to provide further details, and a member from our team we'll be happy to support you! https://support.homestars.com/s/contactsupport
