I don’t write many reviews. Lara Home Improvement deserves this one! Fernando was incredibly responsive at every turn, from the initial phone call to answering the phone / returning text messages. He and his crew were on time every day. They were all polite and incredibly knowledgeable. Lara Home had the guys to complete every single item on my to do list, no matter the skill. I didn’t have to go find, hire and concern myself with other “specialists”. Some of my projects were small and some were quite significant. No matter the scope everything was done perfectly. When we hit a snag, he figured out a solution and handled it. Everything he touched looks fantastic! I couldn’t give a higher recommendation to Fernando and his crew!!! Thank you!!!

I started out just doing my bathroom and ended up doing a hallway kitchen. I was in with about a week. I am very pleased with their work. They were very quick and efficient. They cleaned up every day and never left you with without any water. I live in a one bedroom a condo and I only had one bathroom so I always had facilities. Fernando is very concerned and and you can tell he cares about the people that he works for his crew is amazing. I was fortunate enough to work with his son and his son-in-law. They’re a great team. I have to show off my bathroom so here’s a picture of my bathroom. I absolutely love it. Thanks, Fernando.

Rushed the whole job. Hired painters he had never used. Destroyed my entire house knowing we still needed to live in it. Didn?t clean up after he left. Didn?t completed job. Sloppy detail work see photos. I want the work completed but I don?t want him back in my house. Please do not hire. Menards didn?t even want him in there store anymore. Quoted me an extremely low price just to get job. So many things he left out.

HomeAdvisor allows Service Professionals to post information about themselves and their business on their profile. HomeAdvisor does not review or verify the information representations set forth in those profiles as they are self-reported by the Service Professional.

What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

  1. Verify Trade License
    HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
  2. Verify Insurance
    As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
  3. Verification of State Business Filings
    For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
  4. Criminal Records Search
    HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
  5. Sex Offender Search
    We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
  6. Bankruptcy Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
  7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
  8. Liens Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
  9. Identity Verification (SSN)
    HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
  10. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup)
    We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.
