What Is A Home Warranty?

A warranty for your home is an annual renewable service contract that provides
protection and peace of mind should a covered breakdown occur. Home warranties
help cut the cost to repair or replace many of the systems and appliances in
your home. It complements your homeowners insurance by protecting things that
your insurance doesn’t.


An American Home Shield home service plan is like a traditional home warranty,
but it goes beyond that with exclusive member perks. In addition to helping with
the cost and hassle to repair or replace parts of home appliances and systems
that break down over time, a home service plan provides American Home Shield
members with exclusive pricing on home maintenance services, new appliances, and
a variety of home services — from tech installation and setup to pre-season HVAC
tune-ups, and more.

Why Do I Need One?

The short answer is that it's a proactive way to cover the home systems and
appliances you rely on every day. So, when a covered item breaks down due to
normal wear and tear, we will help with the cost to repair it, and if it can't
be repaired, we will replace the item for you subject to the limitations and
exclusions of your plan. In addition, a home service plan helps protect your
budget and saves you time searching for a qualified contractor.

What's Covered?

American Home Shield home warranties, which we refer to as home service plans,
cover the home systems and appliances that you use everyday—no matter their age.
You can cover the items that keep your home running smoothly and choose a plan
that’s right for you. Our home service plans cover the major components of
heating and cooling systems, electrical systems, plumbing systems, kitchen
appliances, and laundry appliances, as well as roof leak repair, and more. Feel
empowered to ditch that single appliance extended warranty, because with
American Home Shield, you receive more coverage and protection.

Are They Worth It?

The cost to repair or replace an A/C unit without a warranty can be up to
$3,800*. Because A/C units are covered in all three of our home service plans,
if a covered breakdown occurs, you would simply pay the Trade Service Call Fee
you selected ($75, $100 or $150) when you purchased your plan, to have it
repaired or replaced subject to the coverage limitations and exclusions in your
plan. The cost to repair or replace a refrigerator without a warranty can be up
to $1,500*. Refrigerators are covered in our ShieldGold and ShieldPlatinum
plans. When you think about all of the home systems and appliances you use every
day, repair and replacement costs can add up quickly. An American Home Shield
home service plan is a great way to protect your budget and keep your home
running smoothly.


*Repair/replacement costs are the eightieth percentile of U.S. costs according
to a nationwide survey of homeowners conducted in 2019 by ClearVantage for
American Home Shield.

PEOPLE LIKE US, OFFICIALLY.

People across the country love the protection that an American Home Shield home
warranty provides. And our reviews prove it.


 * LINDA R.
   
   
   
   
   It was 100 degrees and my AC went out. Called AHS but the contractor couldn't
   come until the next day. I rented a motel room for the night and as I was
   getting ready to leave, the contractor called and said he could be there that
   night if I still wanted him to!!! I was soooo happy. He fixed my AC and my
   house was back to normal that night. I would have gladly paid more than the
   $100 service call fee for this. Thank you AHS!
   
   
   
   
   BRITNI T.
   
   
   
   
   I have never had a bad experience with the service that AHS provides. When
   appliances failed, the speedy replacement options were superb with a no-fuss
   process. You will NOT go wrong with the prices, plans, and services offered
   by American Home Shield!
   
   
   
   
   CHRISTINE D.
   
   
   
   
   As part of our home warranty we were allowed to have several locks rekeyed.
   Since the previous owner left us one key to the front door and a bag of
   miscellaneous keys (that went with nothing) it was a huge help to have this
   done!
   
   


 * CLINT P.
   
   
   
   
   I have had American Home Shield for almost 10 years now and it is the best
   service as a homeowner I have! Highly recommended!
   
   
   
   
   WILLIAM S.
   
   
   
   
   Great service for homeowners! If you have a ton of cash ready for any home
   system that may fail at any moment then you are good. If you are like the
   other 90% of homeowners who don't, then do yourself a favor and protect your
   investment with an AHS home warranty. Seriously, a new HVAC in California
   costs over $4K. I paid $100. A new stove last year was $400, but I paid $75.
   It's in my budget and I don't think twice. AHS always takes great care of me.
   
   
   
   
   ZELLA A.
   
   
   
   
   I just used AHS for the first time in February because my AC wasn’t working.
   It was the easiest process!!! The tech came out and had the AC up and running
   in under 45 minutes. My unit is not new and I’m amazed he was able to bring
   it back from the dead. But the best part? The ZERO dollar due invoice I
   received from the AC company!!!! Thank you AHS - I’ve got peace of mind
   regarding my home.
   
   


 * SCOTT S.
   
   
   
   
   Great service. We've had four service requests completed for $400 total and
   it saved us over $2,400.
   
   
   
   
   ERIC A.
   
   
   
   
   I wasn't sure if a home warranty would be a good investment. My next door
   neighbor has AHS and had their AC unit repaired without any issues and little
   out of pocket cost. With that I was sold. Since then, I've had 2 AC units
   repaired, an ice maker replaced, a garbage disposal replaced, and most
   recently a dryer repaired. All with no issues. Doing the math, having AHS is
   a great investment.
   
   
   
   
   MARIE H.
   
   
   
   
   As a long time customer of AHS it is a pleasure to be a member. As a single
   homeowner I always worry about breakdowns and how I would pay for them. With
   AHS I don't have that anxiety. Thank you.
   
   


 * LEIA S.
   
   
   
   
   I used AHS for the first time and what an easy process. I booked a service
   appointment online, paid the $100 service fee, and the repairman fixed the
   problem in less than 10 minutes. Our "trusted" AC tune up guys told us our
   unit was leaking refrigerant and needed a new coil unit. The AHS contractor
   saw that a bolt was loose and after he tightened it, his meter no longer
   detected a leak. Thank you for sending out honest repairmen!! I'm already a
   huge fan.
   
   
   
   
   NICOLE C.
   
   
   
   
   It's a great home protection plan that helps assist with the cost when things
   break down. The send reliable contractors who are masters in their field of
   work. You can customize any plan to fit your needs.
   
   
   
   
   BETTY M.
   
   
   
   
   Placed my fourth service call in last 7 years and their service people are
   very reputable. The contractor explained to me what caused the microwave door
   to break and provided lots of good tips about safety, which is very important
   to this 80-year-old homeowner.
