Any recommendations for a Home Warranty company?
« on: May 31, 2022, 03:46:48 PM »
Looking something that covers everything (i.e. heating/cooling, appliances etc) and does not charge service calls. Preferably something that you have used and had a good experience with.

Might be hard to find one that does not charge a service call.  I had a plan that I did not renew and its service call fee at the time was $50.  A friend of mine has a plan through Select Home Warranty and he says his service fee is $75.

Homeserve doesnt have a service fee, but its not an entire home warranty. You pick what you want covered

Looking for a home warranty that will cover major house expenses (ac, heating, boiler, hot water...).
Anyone with American Home Shield (AHS) experience or something similar? Will they cover in full?

If you have separate ovens for milk and meat for kosher they may not cover both.

Your gas company may offer a contract on HVAC and more.

i use sears whole home warranty for past couple of years, but they recently increased their monthly premium for 79 to 99 so not sure im keeping them. in addition to the 100 deductible per service call

My advice from experience. That are all trash, a nightmare to deal with and not worthwhile. The only one that I heard directly from users that is somewhat decent is NJR Home service (in NJ) but they won’t replace items.
