Download the Angi app

~15s

Search for "Angi" in the App Store or Google Play and install the free app. You can also use the website at angi.com on your computer. Create a free account with your email address and home address.

Search for a service

~20s

In the app, tap the search bar and type what you need — for example, "plumber," "roof repair," or "lawn mowing." You can also browse categories. Angi will show you local professionals with star ratings, number of reviews, and how many years they've been in business.

Quick Tip

Sort results by "Highest Rated" to see the most trusted local pros first.

Read reviews carefully

~21s

Tap on a pro's profile to read customer reviews. Look at both the overall star rating and the number of reviews — a 4.8 star rating with 200 reviews is more trustworthy than a 5.0 star rating with 3 reviews. Check if they have verified licenses for your state.

Quick Tip

Angi shows which reviews are from verified, confirmed jobs — these are the most trustworthy.

Request a quote

~22s

Tap "Request a Quote" on a pro's profile. Describe your project in as much detail as possible — include the size of the job, what materials might be needed, and any urgency. Request quotes from 2-3 different pros to compare prices.

Warning

Never pay the full project cost upfront. A standard deposit of 25-33% is normal; the rest should be paid when the work is complete and you're satisfied.

Book and confirm

~15s

Once you've chosen a pro, book the appointment through the app. Angi sends a confirmation with the pro's contact information. Save this confirmation. After the job is done, leave a review — it helps other homeowners in your community find trustworthy help.

Angi (formerly Angie's List) is an app and website that connects homeowners with local, background-checked home service professionals. You can find plumbers, electricians, HVAC technicians, handymen, roofers, painters, landscapers, and hundreds of other home service providers in your area.

Every pro on Angi has been vetted, has reviews from previous customers, and carries licensing and insurance information on their profile. This is one of the safest ways to find someone to work in your home — much safer than hiring a stranger who leaves a flyer on your door.

To use Angi, you describe what you need (for example, "fix a leaky faucet"), enter your zip code, and Angi shows you local professionals with their ratings, number of reviews, and typical pricing ranges. You can request quotes from multiple pros at once and compare them before deciding.

Angi is free to use as a homeowner — the professionals pay to be listed. You'll never have to pay Angi to get quotes or book a service.

The app also has an "Angi Services" feature where you can book pre-priced jobs like furniture assembly, TV mounting, gutter cleaning, and appliance installation directly without waiting for quotes.
