I would like to know if anyone is St. Louis area has used Angie's List.
What do think of it.

Thank you


Dunno about St Louis. Have used in Twin Cities for a bunch of years.
Have had a lot of work done on our house, and have only gone to those
contractors that people liked on Angie's List. Every job (siding,
roof, driveway, painting, tree service, a few others) was done on
time, to my expectations and within stated cost. I have no complaints;
it is useful to see/read what others think about contractors for
various services. Otherwise, in many cases, you just pick one from the
yellow pages and hope for the best...

In terms of email spam, well, haven't gotten any. I get a request from
Angie's List to fill in an evaluation on work done on my property, but
certainly no spam.

Overall I veiw it as a very useful service, and well worth the nominal
cost to join. I am not employed by and have no links to Angie's except
as a satisfied user.
