Reviews about value and pricing

What is HomeSafe?

HomeSafe is a home warranty company with customizable coverage, flexible payment options and 24/7 customer service. Depending on your policy, HomeSafe can cover expenses when a system or appliance breaks down due to normal wear and tear. The company offers home warranty plans in all states except California.

How does HomeSafe work?

To get a home warranty from HomeSafe, you have to work directly with one of the company’s specialists. They’ll help tailor a plan to your needs, providing instant pricing and coverage options.

Once you sign up for a HomeSafe warranty, you have to wait 25 days before making your first service request. To book service for an appliance or system issue, you’ll file a claim online or call the company directly. Once the claim is submitted and accepted, HomeSafe assigns a vetted repair professional — or it can work with you to verify your preferred technician, as long as they’re licensed.

For each repair, a service fee of $65 is required. If a repair or replacement fails within 60 days, you don’t have to pay an additional fee for a technician to return.

On the other hand, if you purchase a plan and decide you don’t need or can’t afford the coverage, you can cancel within 30 days and get your money back.

HomeSafe coverage

HomeSafe offers an appliances plan, a systems plan and a combination plan (for both appliances and systems) called Best Home. You can also customize a plan to cover only the systems and appliances you want.

Add-on coverage is available for a wine chiller, in-ground pool or spa, well pump, water softener, septic system, and guest unit or guesthouse.

HomeSafe cost

HomeSafe’s monthly costs for a home in Texas range from $69 to $79. HomeSafe doesn’t advertise starting costs for its plans, but it does specify a $65 service call fee, which is on the lower end of the industry range. It also locks in your initial price — as long as you keep your plan active, your costs won’t increase with each contract year. Home warranty costs depend on the location and the level of coverage.

When we inquired about coverage for a home in Austin, Texas, we received the following quotes:

To get an idea of what you might pay, you can fill out a free quote form on HomeSafe’s website. The company will then contact you directly to discuss your coverage and cost options.

HomeSafe offers flexible month-to-month plans for those who don’t want to be locked into a contract.

HomeSafe FAQ

Do I need a home inspection with HomeSafe?

No, an inspection isn’t required when you sign up for a HomeSafe plan.

What is HomeSafe’s waiting period?

HomeSafe's waiting period is 25 days, which is shorter than what many home warranty companies require. The industry standard is 30 days.

Can I transfer a HomeSafe warranty if I sell my home?

Yes, you can transfer a HomeSafe warranty if you sell your home. To transfer coverage to the new owner, just call HomeSafe’s customer service department.

Can I choose my own service technician with HomeSafe?

Yes, you can choose your own technician with HomeSafe as long as they’re licensed. HomeSafe can also recommend a technician from its network.

What are HomeSafe’s plan limits?

If HomeSafe isn’t able to fix your covered appliance or system, the plan limits for replacement are as follows:

  • $3,000 on systems
  • $2,000 on appliances
  • Up to $10,000, annually
Can I cancel my HomeSafe warranty?

Yes, you can cancel your warranty with HomeSafe. If you cancel within 30 days, you’ll receive a full refund. If you cancel after 30 days, you’ll receive a prorated refund and be charged a $75 cancellation fee.

Still have questions?

Is HomeSafe legit?

Yes, HomeSafe is a legitimate home warranty company. It has been in business for over six years, serves 49 states and won a ConsumerAffairs Buyer’s Choice Award in 2026.

HomeSafe is a great option if you’re interested in coverage for your household appliances and systems. The company offers several benefits, including locked-in rates and the option to choose your own licensed technician.

    I own my own home now, and I wanna make sure that everything in it is okay. HomeSafe’s price was good, which was one reason I went with them. I've called in and asked a couple of questions, and the customer service has been good. My sister has just gotten her home paid for, and she's asking me about it so I’m gonna tell her about HomeSafe and see if she wants to go with them. I’ve been with them for about a year, and I've never had any problems. I did it just in case something breaks down. I wanna make sure I have someone I can go to.

      HomeSafe's customer service has been nice. However, I had one claim they denied. The man that they sent out there wanted to crawl in the crawlspace under the house. There was a leak on a pipe; water was just coming out. I called back and talked to one representative, and she put me on hold, and she talked to her supervisor. But they said they couldn't fix it because he was charging too much. I called my old plumber before I got the insurance, and he came out and fixed it. The other guy wouldn't tell me how much charge these were gonna cost- a couple 1,000. But the other guy fixed it for me for $445. I'm also not satisfied with the $150 deductible. But that was the only time I had problems with HomeSafe. They did fix some, and that was the only one they didn’t.

      Christine, thank you for sharing your experience. We appreciate your kind words about our customer service and are glad HomeSafe has been there for you on previous repairs.

If you have questions about how your claim was handled or how your contract applied to the repair, please contact our Customer Service team at 1-800-332-4177. They'll be happy to walk through your contract with you and answer any questions you may have.

      The very nice people at HomeSafe care about the consumer. They try their best to help. The repair person is also very, very kind. pleasant and reassuring. My pool motor stopped working in the summer in Arizona and I was very worried about the pool turning green. The pool man from HomeSafe came out to look at my pool promptly. What consumers need to realize is that your claim needs to be assigned to a claims rep from the administrator, Armis. Then the repair person can do the repair. So don't fret as I did.

      We’re so glad to hear our team and the repair professional provided kind, reassuring service during a stressful situation. A pool issue in the Arizona summer can definitely feel urgent, and we’re happy someone was able to come out promptly to assess the problem.

      We also appreciate you sharing helpful insight about the claims process. Armis is our claims administrator, so their adjusters are the ones that evaluate all claim details. Thank you for your patience, your kind words, and for choosing HomeSafe.

      I like HomeSafe. I had them come out at one time for my septic system in my garage. It was backing up. They put some stuff in it and yield it out. They couldn't find any other problems. HomeSafe is good as long as you got $100 for when they come out. When I first started, it was 65. I call them when I send in a work order. I speak to a person. They ask questions about what I need done, and they look for somebody to do that particular thing as fast as they can. As far as the contractors, I had one that I really wasn't happy with. He kept coming back, and he had excuses. He was a private contractor. He couldn't get a part. He couldn't do this or that. He had different excuses. I finally did get my hot water tank replaced. It took about two months by the time I got it all done. I was trying to help him by not saying anything to anybody because I knew that he was a private contractor and that he needed the job.

      HomeSafe has been nice and the service was good. They were polite and some of them helped me. They explained exactly what was covered. However, an incident happened where I had a lot of clean-up to do. The threads on top of the water heater where the water comes up and goes out of the pipes were leaking, and I had water all over my bathroom. I had it in the front room, in the kitchen, and on the walls. I asked HomeSafe for a contractor to come and repair it. They told me that they couldn't because I don't have the water heater in my plan. I just canceled all of it and I'm not going back to it.

      To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally express my frustration regarding my HomeSafe warranty account. Approximately four months ago, I contacted your company and spoke with one of your customer service representatives to cancel my home warranty. During that conversation, I clearly explained that I wanted to cancel because I was repeatedly unable to find service technicians who would accept your warranty coverage. After multiple unsuccessful attempts to use the service I was paying for, I decided to cancel my policy. I recently discovered through my bank statements that I have continued to be charged $54.99 per month for the past four months. I also sold my home, and the closing took place two days ago, making these continued charges even more unacceptable.

      When I called today to resolve this issue, I was told there is no documentation showing that I canceled my warranty. While the representative I spoke with was courteous and professional, the lack of documentation is not my responsibility. I did everything required by calling your company and requesting cancellation. With today's technology, I expect HomeSafe to review the recorded phone calls from approximately four months ago to verify that I requested cancellation. Those recordings should confirm exactly what was discussed.

      I am requesting the following:

      An immediate investigation into my original cancellation request.
      A full refund of the four monthly payments totaling $219.96 that were taken after I canceled.

      Written confirmation that my warranty has been canceled and that no future charges will occur.

      I was also informed that no managers were available because they were in a meeting. I left my phone number and expect a return call as soon as possible. If I do not receive a satisfactory response, I will file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and will also share my experience publicly on social media. I would much rather resolve this matter directly with HomeSafe, but I expect your company to honor my original cancellation request. Please contact me at your earliest convenience. William B Thank you.

      This place is horrible when it comes to finally claim. Just got off the representative which was very professional and polite although he said, "Sorry. Dropped the bomb." Not acceptable. I asked for a discount or some kind of credit back and he said, "Nope. Not going to happen." All they care about is their money. I want to discontinue using their service. I wouldn't even give him a one-star if that's too much credit. Run. Do not use this company. They are worthless.
