Angi Contractor & Reviews Scraper
Scrape contractor profiles and reviews from Angi, formerly Angie's List, for any US city and service category. Each record includes business name, phone, address, rating, review count, and badges. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
Angi's directory of home service professionals holds verified reviews and contact details, but manually copying hundreds of listings is slow and error-prone. This scraper reads the public search pages directly, so you can pull plumbers, electricians, roofers, and more from any metro area without writing a line of code. It handles the site's bot protection with residential proxies, returning clean, structured data every run.
| Who uses it | What they scrape Angi for |
|---|---|
| Marketing agencies | Build lead lists of local service businesses for outreach campaigns. |
| Home service franchisors | Monitor competitor density and ratings across target expansion cities. |
| Data analysts | Aggregate regional pricing signals and service availability trends. |
| Recruiters | Identify highly-rated independent contractors for acquisition or hiring. |
What it does
This Actor collects Angi contractor listings from city and service URLs and returns each business as a flat row with optional full profile details.
- 🏙️ City and service targeting: feed it one or more Angi search URLs, each combining a US city and a service category like plumbing, HVAC, or landscaping.
- 📋 Profile enrichment: enable the profile detail fetch to pull full descriptions, street addresses, phone numbers, badges, and review highlights for every contractor.
- ⚡ Listing-only speed run: disable profile details to scrape the search results page alone, collecting name, rating, and review count at high throughput.
- 🛡️ Bot protection bypass: pre-configured with US residential proxies to reliably avoid Cloudflare and DataDome blocks during large runs.
Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting zero results?
Check that your search URLs are correctly formatted and point to live Angi directory pages. Try opening the URL in a regular browser first. If the page loads but the scraper returns nothing, the site may have changed its layout; contact support with a sample URL.
The run fails with a proxy or timeout error.
Angi blocks datacenter IPs aggressively. Ensure your proxy configuration is set to Apify residential proxies with the US region selected. If you are using your own proxies, switch to Apify's residential group.
I only got 10 results but I set maxItems higher.
Free Apify accounts are limited to 10 items per run as a preview. Upgrade to a paid plan to remove this cap and collect up to the full maxItems value you configured.
Profile details are missing for some contractors.
Some Angi profiles may have incomplete data or the detail page may have loaded slowly. Try re-running with a lower maxItems count or ensure your proxy connection is stable. The Actor skips a profile detail fetch if the page fails to load after retries.
The run is very slow.
Full profile mode adds approximately 3 seconds per contractor because it visits each detail page. For faster runs, disable the fetchProfileDetails checkbox to scrape listing-only data at higher speed.
FAQ
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Can I scrape multiple cities and services in one run? | Yes. Add as many Angi search URLs as you need to the searchUrls input field. The Actor processes them sequentially and aggregates all results into a single dataset. |
| What is the difference between listing-only and full profile mode? | Listing-only mode scrapes the search results page and returns name, rating, and review count. Full profile mode visits each contractor's detail page to add description, address, phone number, badges, and review highlights. Profile mode adds roughly 3 seconds per record. |
| Does this scraper work for any US city? | Yes. Any city and service combination that has a live Angi directory page can be scraped. The prefill includes dozens of major metros, but you can construct your own URLs for any location. |
| Why do I need a residential proxy? | Angi uses Cloudflare and DataDome bot protection that blocks datacenter IPs. The Actor is pre-configured with Apify's US residential proxies, which route requests through real ISP addresses to avoid detection. |
| Can I limit how many businesses the scraper collects? | Yes. Set the maxItems field to cap the total number of contractor records returned. Free users are limited to 10 items for preview; paid users can request up to 1,000,000. |
| What export formats are supported? | You can export your results to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML directly from the Apify dataset tab after the run completes. |
| Does this scraper require an Angi login? | No. The Actor reads publicly accessible directory pages and does not need an Angi account, API key, or login credentials. |
| How do I construct an Angi search URL? | Use the pattern https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/{state-abbreviation}/{city-slug}/{service-slug}.htm. For example, /us/tx/austin/plumbing.htm targets plumbers in Austin, Texas. |
| Can I scrape contractor reviews in full? | The Actor collects review highlights and total review counts from profile pages. It does not paginate through every individual review text. |
| Is this the same as the old Angie's List? | Yes. Angie's List rebranded to Angi in 2021. The directory structure and data are the same, and this scraper works on the current angi.com domain. |
