Went from 3 reviews to 20 on Thumbtack. Earned 'Top Pro' badge and my lead volume tripled. Customers specifically choose me because of the reviews.

When Thumbtack Reviews Matter Most

🏆

Earning 'Top Pro' Status

Thumbtack awards 'Top Pro' badges based on reviews, response rate, and hiring rate. More reviews directly qualify you.

💼

Multiple pros bid on every project. Customers choose the one with the most and best reviews. Stand out.

📈

Boosting Hire Rate

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get more reviews on Thumbtack?+
Send a thank-you message immediately after completing a job and ask the customer to leave a Thumbtack review, including a direct link. Prompt, friendly requests while the work is fresh in the customer's mind produce the most reviews.
Can past customers from outside Thumbtack leave reviews?+
Yes. Thumbtack lets you request reviews from past customers you served outside the platform, which is a great way to build credibility quickly when you're starting out. They'll receive an invitation to review your work on your Thumbtack profile.
Do Thumbtack reviews affect my ranking and leads?+
Yes. A strong review profile improves how often your services are shown and chosen by customers comparing pros. More positive, recent reviews build trust and directly influence whether a customer contacts you over a competitor.
Should I respond to Thumbtack reviews?+
Yes — reply professionally to both positive and negative reviews. Thanking happy customers and calmly addressing concerns shows prospective clients you're communicative and reliable, which matters a lot in home and local services.
Can I remove a negative Thumbtack review?+
Honest reviews can't be removed, but you can report reviews that violate Thumbtack's guidelines. For genuine criticism, a professional response and a steady stream of new positive reviews are the most effective way to protect your reputation.
How important are reviews for winning Thumbtack jobs?+
Very. Customers on Thumbtack compare pros largely on ratings and reviews. A well-reviewed profile signals trust and professionalism, often making the difference in getting hired — especially for higher-value projects.
What's the best way to ask for a Thumbtack review?+
Ask right after finishing the job, in person or with a quick follow-up message, and send the direct review link so it's effortless. A brief, genuine request — "It would really help my small business" — tends to get the best response.
Can I offer incentives for reviews?+
Avoid it. Conditioning rewards on positive reviews violates FTC guidance and most platform rules. The compliant, sustainable approach is simply asking every customer for honest feedback at the right moment — no discounts or gifts attached.
How many reviews do I need to stand out?+
It depends on the pros you compete with locally. Aim to match or exceed the review count of the top-rated pros in your category and area, and keep new reviews coming, since recency reinforces that you're active and in demand.
How long does it take to build up reviews?+
By requesting reviews from both new jobs and past customers, many pros build a credible base within a few weeks. Consistent requests after every job keep your profile growing and your ranking strong over time.
