Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a home warranty cost?
Home warranties typically cost $300-$600 per year for basic coverage and $500-$1,000+ for comprehensive plans. Service call fees range from $50-$125 per visit. Costs vary by provider, coverage level, and home size.
What does a home warranty cover?
Home warranties typically cover major systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) and appliances (refrigerator, washer, dryer, dishwasher). They do not cover pre-existing conditions, cosmetic issues, or items outside normal wear and tear.
Is a home warranty worth it?
A home warranty is more valuable for older homes with aging systems and appliances, and for homeowners who lack repair skills or emergency funds. For newer homes with modern appliances still under manufacturer warranty, it may not be cost-effective.
