Hi,
This is James W. in Member Care. I'm happy to help!
We are indeed a subscription based service. Angie's List helps you find the best home and health care providers to fit your specific needs. The List is organized by project type (home improvement, personal services, health services, etc.) You can check out the full list of services by visiting:

We'd love to have you be a part of the Angie's List community! I'm happy to offer a 20% discount on an annual subscription. Just enter the promo code ANSWERS during the sign-up process online. Annual memberships are fully refundable if you're not satisfied, so there is no risk to try it out! A live specialist would also be happy to help over the phone at 1.866.783.2980. We're open 8:00 am-9:00 pm weekdays and 8:00 am- 5:00 pm ET on Saturdays.
Please let me know if you have any other questions and good luck with your project!
