Many people do not know that a manufacturer’s warranty typically only covers defects in materials and workmanship and lasts for a limited time only. That's why being prepared with a Tech Protection Premier plan from HomeServe is a smart idea. The plan also covers accidental damage from handling (for example, it covers cracked screens, drops or liquid damage on mobile phones, laptops, and tablets), normal wear and tear, and power surges.

Frequently asked questions
-
Local, licensed and insured technicians perform covered repairs, which are guaranteed against defects in materials and workmanship for one year.
-
Many homeowners believe their utility companies or homeowners insurance is responsible for emergency repairs to the water, sewer, plumbing, electrical, heating and cooling systems, but the reality is that in many cases you, the homeowner, are responsible. Most basic homeowners insurance policies and local utility companies or municipalities do not cover repairs to or replacement of the major systems in and around your home.
-
HomeServe is the leading provider of home repair solutions nationwide with nearly 20 years’ experience making home ownership easier by keeping home systems running smoothly. We do this through a nationwide network of licensed contractors and a U.S.-based call center available 24/7/365. As an accredited business with the Better Business Bureau and a 4.8 out of 5-star post-job satisfaction scores, HomeServe is the best tool a homeowner can have to protect themselves from costly home repairs. Our repair plans protect you from the expense of an emergency home repair caused by normal wear and tear that is not typically covered by your homeowners insurance, local utility or municipality.
-
You may cancel within 30 days of your start date for a full refund; cancellations after the first 30 days will result in a pro rata refund less any claims paid (where applicable). Most basic homeowners insurance policies do not cover repair or replacement due to normal wear and tear of these components. If you find you have similar protection, you can cancel and receive a refund of your service agreement fee, less any claims paid (where applicable).
