How To use your home warranty
For members who purchased a home warranty for their current home, there is a 30-day activation period before you can start using your plan. If you purchased your warranty through a real estate transaction, your warranty is active at closing.*

30-Day Workmanship Guarantee
See the plan agreement for coverage details, including service fees, limitations and exclusions. Coverage limits and charges for non-covered items may apply.
You could pay THOUSANDS for a single repair or replacement — or a fraction of that cost for an entire year of coverage with American Home Shield.
What Is a Home Warranty?
A home warranty is a one-year service contract that helps pay the repair and replacement costs when parts of covered systems and appliances stop working. A home warranty complements homeowner’s insurance by protecting things insurance doesn’t, like normal wear-and-tear and improper maintenance.
An American Home Shield® home service plan goes beyond traditional home warranties by providing exclusive member perks, like discounts on new appliances and services, including tech installation and setup, pre-season HVAC tune-ups and more.
Why do I need a home warranty?
All home systems and appliances will break. American Home Shield is one of the best plans for this inevitability. We help pay for covered repairs, and if your item can’t be fixed, we’ll replace it. It’s a smart way to control costs and save time searching for help.
What does a home warranty cover?
We cover major parts of your heating and air conditioning systems, electrical and plumbing systems, kitchen and laundry appliances, and more — giving you more value and protection than multiple single-appliance warranties.
Is a Home Warranty Worth It?
Consider this real-world example: the out-of-pocket cost to repair or replace an A/C unit without a home warranty can be up to $3,800. But, with a covered A/C repair from American Home Shield, you’d only pay your pre-selected Service Fee ($100 or $125).And if it couldn't be fixed, we'll replace it based on the coverage you opted for in your home service plan.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Since 1971 we have provided comprehensive home warranty plans for American consumers, being the first of the many home warranty companies that have imitated us ever since. Our promise is simple: the peace of mind and convenience that homeowners expect the market leader. A fixed service fee, a single number to call when things go wrong, expert customer service representatives, a comprehensive yearly service contract, and a reasonable home warranty cost.
Both ends of a real estate transaction can benefit from being home warranty customers: for the seller, a home warranty can increase the confidence of prospective buyers and increase the price of the property or make the sale easier. For the buyer, it ensures that the repair or replacement of appliances and potentially expensive repairs of home systems are covered by a service provider.
We use licensed, independent, trusted Pros from our nationwide network, and they're regularly evaluated by customers like you to make sure they're meeting our standards and providing excellent service.
