EZ-HE Customer
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes EZ-HE "So Different" from ALL the other Home Improvement services?
Some services/websites provide Customer Ratings/Reviews from only their company/website, along with a Contractors information. Other services/websites ask customers to take their own measurements, pics, details, etc. While these services may be helpful in providing a contractor(s) contact info..... Customers still have to go through the time consuming process of making multiple calls, set multiple appointments, make schedule changes to rush home and meet with multiple contractors.
​
The EZ-HE process includes the personal service of having our EZ-Reps. meet with customers to discuss their project, view project area, while documenting all project details. After the one meeting with an EZ-Rep., customers receive an email from EZ-HE with up to five (5) estimates, typically within 3 - 7 business days.... It's that simple!

Why doesn't EZ-HE offer their own Ratings & Reviews?
​
With so many Rating & Review websites already in existence, many Contractors have posted Rating/Reviews on multiple websites, making searching these sites time consuming & frustrating.
Unlike our competitors, who only provide customer "Ratings/Reviews" posted on their own website. EZ-HE's unbiased approach requires Contractor who submit estimates, include the following:
​
-
Multiple links to Rating/Review pages (Not just one)
-
Link to Contractor's Website
-
Link to Social media pages, and the best part...?
All info is easily accessible from ONE LOCATION..!

Does an EZ-HE rep need to survey my project area(s) every time I need work performed?
No, that is the beauty of what EZ-HE does. For example, if a customer submits a request for a bathroom remodel but also knows they plan to replace their windows in the next 3-5 years, the EZ-HE rep can document all of those specifications when on site and safely store it in the EZ-HE database. When the time comes to move forward with the window replacement project, the customer can simply request a quote. There is no need to make another appointment for an EZ-HE rep to come to your home and you can have quotes from multiple contractors within days.
Can I choose more than one Contractor to meet with before making my final decision?
Yes. There are times when a customer finds it difficult to choose between two or more contractors/estimates, therefore meeting with each individual contractor becomes the deciding factor.
How do I become an EZ-HE customer/member?

THIS SEEMS LIKE IT IS FOR A CUSTOMER CANCELLING ON A PRO. I THINK WE SHOULD ELIMINATE THIS ONE OR REWORD IT SO IT APPLIES TO A CUSTOMER CANCELLING AN APPOINTMENT WITH AN EZ REP. WHAT DO YOU THINK?
My pro never showed up, now what?
We have a very serious “No-Show” policy, should something like this occur with a pro we subtract a penalty from their account and refund your money. See our Cancellation Policy page for more information.
SIMILAR SCENARIO HERE. I THINK THIS APPLIES TO THE CUSTOMER AND CONTRACTOR AND WE SHOULD NOT BE INVOLVED. IF WE DON'T SIMPLY ELIMINATE THIS QUESTION THEN MAYBE WE REWORD THIS TO APPLY TO A SCENARIO WHERE A CUSTOMER CANCELS WITH A PRO BECAUSE THEY CHANGED THEIR MIND AFTER MEETING THEM AND WOULD LIKE TO SELECT THEIR 2ND CHOICE OR RESUBMIT THE JOB FOR ADDITIONAL QUOTES FROM MORE PROS.
