How does a home warranty help me?
Your home is most likely one of your biggest investments. Unexpected repair or replacement costs can easily strain your budget. Plus, finding an approved and insured contractor to solve your problem can be stressful and inconvenient. A home warranty cannot prevent systems or appliances from breaking down, but it can help make covered repairs or replacement easier and less cost.
Do home warranty plans cover appliance or system replacement?
Yes. You may already have warranties on individual items in your home, check these warranties carefully, since they may only cover parts and/or labor. With our Home Warranty, parts, labor, and system replacement are all covered. Please review our Plan for complete coverage terms & conditions.
What is the difference between my homeowner insurance policy and a home warranty plan?
East Coast Home Warranty's one-year home warranty covers items not covered under your standard homeowner policy - filling a critical gap in the protection of your home. For example, if your dishwasher leaks and water damages the floor, your homeowner's insurance policy may cover the damage to the floor, but not the repair or replacement of the dishwasher. With an East Coast Home Warranty, your dishwasher is covered
