Back in 1971, there was no protection for homeowners from the inconvenience or cost of household breakdowns. We decided to do something about it – and founded the home warranty industry by creating American Home Shield®.
Each of our more than 2M members gets peace of mind and budget protection, access to a nationwide network of thousands of local, qualified contractors, comprehensive coverage for key home systems and appliances – plus additional protection available for electronics and select maintenance services.
Our goal is to empower homeowners to feel confident and in control of their home. We want to help you keep your home running smoothly, all the time. We aren’t insurance. We provide plans for people with home systems and appliances they’d like to keep in working order, regardless of their age or condition. Whether you’ve lived in your home for years, or are buying or selling a home, we’ve got a plan that will meet your specific needs.
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.
