Powellandsons

The free quote form on their website is incredibly misleading and you never actually hear from someone at Powell & Sons, your information goes through Angie's List and you then get spammed by hundreds of non-local contractors who get your information as a result. If you want to keep your information private and you don't want to get harassed for weeks, skip this site and spread the word.

Mike Cordell "talked only" of "Easy Appliance Repair" subcontracted under the 'Powell & Sons" name. This is a total scam $250 for an hours worth of looking at my washer. I put a stop payment on my check, which he claimed he already cashed. My bank said no check had come thru yet... Total scam like the other reviews commented...
I was never emailed a receipt, only the stop payment check with my bank...

Don't bother. I did a Google search for a dryer vent cleaner in my area. Powell and Sons came up first with my town listed right next to their name and even a map that included my location. After they had me request an estimate which included my phone number and email address, they replied the service is not available in my area. It's a scam to get your contact info so they can sell it to other companies. Now I have to worry about getting bombarded with unwanted solicitations.

Assisted me with preventing a real yard calamity in the middle of winter. Previous owner of the house didn't winterize lines and I had no idea where the secondary water valve was. Thank you!

Seriously, how are they allowed to get away with this crap? It's just like all the other reviews have claimed, this is NOT A COMPANY! They source out your info to whoever so you don't know who will be contacting you. If I call a company, I expect to be dealing with that particular company and their employees and not someone I would otherwise not want to hire. We need to go back to using the good old Yellow Pages to find local businesses because this online crap doesn't work anymore...

Powell and Sons is a complete scam. I searched for gutter repair in my town in Utah and they came up parading as a local business. They even have a map showing my town in Utah in their "service area". They don't even exist in Utah - it's a Texas company. I fell for it and filled out their form, but never heard from Powell and Sons. Instead they sold my information to multiple companies, like Leafguard and Leaf Filter, and I've been harassed ever since by reps who think they're going to sell me gutter covers. The worst of it is that these gutter cover companies persist after I repeatedly tell them I'm not in the market for their product. Just don't give Powell and Sons your information.

Used search to get estimate for install of house gutters. Powell and Sons came up and they have a contact us to get a free estimate. Put in name, address and phone. Leaf Filter called me. Angie's List somehow has Powel nd Sons linked to its website for referrals and Leaf Filter is who calls. No such work is done by Powell and sons. Leaf Filter knew this as well. Guess they all just like to disregard people's privacy by using fake companies. Bogus. Misleading.

On Google an ad mentioned that this company was servicing about a 10 mile radius in my area along with a whole bunch of fake five star reviews. As soon as I filled out the contact form, my phone immediately rang. I knew something was up. In in the last 24 hours I receive phone calls from Belgium, China and now I'm getting Chinese spam calls and text messages. I have already unsubscribed myself from home advisor and Angie's list (who apparently is running this spam show) and I am still getting the calls. Everybody who has called me, I told him that they have the wrong number and then I never requested anything which has helped, but I'm livid that Angi and home advisor would pull this stunt.

This is a marketing site that sends your email, phone number and home address to local companies as well as sales people out of California for gutter guards. I have heard from 32 companies in 3 days, via texts, calls, and an inbox full of spam. Not one of them is Powell and Sons either. I don't believe that this is even an actual company. Do not give them your information.

This fake company sells leads that we have to run and I feel so bad for the people that they've lied to! Typically it's jobs that no contractor wants either so they lie to the customer and then lie to the business that they sold the lead to!

Companies need to stop buying their leads!

8 Powell and sons leads this week. Only 1 was home. And it was for a service that we don't provide. Got rear ended on way to one of them. Thanks Powell!

They take all your information & then forward it (sell it?) to Angi's List and HomeAdvisor. Their website is misleading -- Even though it says they themselves perform certain jobs, after you fill in your information it will say something similar to "Oh, we can't help you, but we've sent all your information to all of these people who can." Prepare to get flooded with calls.

Powell and Sons is a website that pass your info on to other spam sites like Angie's List, Porch.com, etc. I requested a quote on a simple floor repair from what I thought was a local trusted contractor. Instead, with in minutes my phone was bombarded by sales calls to install new flooring. Two days now my phone is still ringing at all hours! Avoid this site!

Deceptive/misleading! Stay away from this website. I filled out my contact information to get a roofing estimate. Within minutes, I was bombarded with emails and phone calls from tons of contractors and unrelated companies. They will say that got your information from Angie's list, but they actually got it from a referral service called Angi, AKA Home Advisor. I had to call Home Advisor to get the harassment to stop. Powell & Sons needs to be shut down!

Scam scam scam scam Scam scam scam scam Scam scam scam scam Scam scam scam scam Scam scam scam scam Scam scam scam scam Scam scam scam scam Scam scam scam scam Scam scam scam scam Scam scam scam scam. Oh and it's a scam.

Powell and sons is NOT an actual company providing services mentioned on their website. They will only pass your information along to tons of other businesses so that they can contact you in order to try to sell YOU their services.

As soon as you enter your information, you will be bombarded by calls, texts, and emails soliciting services to you. If you don't want this to happen, DON'T enter your info into their website. You can read their privacy policy, which will explain that they will collect your information and give it to other businesses.

They are most likely profiting from selling your information to these third parties, and making money from affiliate marketing. They are not in the business to provide services, but to market the services of others.

I personally feel that what they're doing is dishonest and a bad business practice, which is why I'm rating them only one star. However, what they are doing is technically legal. This is why it is always best to research a company and read their Terms of Service and Privacy Policy before taking any action.

This site pretends to be a service website, but actually forwards the lead to Angie's List. Dishonest

Some random guy shows up in a beat out car. I still have no idea who they are and quotes 6400 to replace a 5 ft chiminy. Looking over his shoulder I see labor is 3500. I guess the 2900 is for permit and 180 bricks? Seems like a scam

Requested free quote for gutters and downspouts for needed repairs on newly purchased home. Online submission resulted in auto-reply like: "sorry we can't help you but have referred your request to another trusted contractor". 30 seconds later received a call from a sales representative from LEAF FILTER! Don't waste your time with this company as is more of a front-end referral service.

If you fill out their request an estimate you will immediately receive calls and texts from tons of other gutter companies! It has been non-stop!

What a scam! Requested quote...instantly received "unable to help" and all my information was sent out to multiple places. Still getting calls 6 months later for unrelated jobs. Their site states they can do what you're requesting...but they can't and they lie about it. Don't waste your time with this "legit sounding" company...they are not!

I submitted an online quote form to them as they came up in my google search as a local company in my area that specializes in what I needed. Information was then sent to HomeAdvisors, Angi, and who knows who else. My phone, email, and text have been going non-stop from every vendor imaginable, many that don't even do what I was looking for. Don't bother unless you are willing to deal with the bombardment of calls and texts.

I continue to get incorrect referral job leads from this website. They are sending me all kinds of random job leads for services that I don't offer like for example sprinkler systems. Angi (aka: Angie's List/Home Advisor) continues to charge me for incorrect job leads from Powell and Sons. I know that numerous job leads come from them because the customers tell me when I ask how they got forwarded to Angi.

Right after you hit the enter button a message comes back that says they can't do the work and post your information to Angies List or Home Advisor. Almost immediately you start getting phone calls from companies that don't even do the kind of work we needed. If I had read the reviews here first I would never have filled out their contact form.
