What is Home Warranty?
HOME WARRANTY is a service contract or agreement that covers the costly repairs and replacements of many major home appliances and / or home system components that typically breakdown over time due to normal wear and tear, usually for a period of one year.
How does home warranty works? In general, most home warranties are similar. You may need to check and read your warranty guidelines and what it covers. Highlight the things that are unclear and have a representative explain it for you.
