How we rate home warranty providers
At House Method, our mission is to provide readers with in-depth reviews based on research and our unique, objective ranking system. Each home warranty provider is scored on seven weighted factors:
- Plan options
- Breadth of coverage
- State availability
- Cost
- Trustworthiness
- Customer service
- Unique benefits
We spent hours on the phone speaking to representatives from market-leading brands to compare quotes, understand protection plan offerings, and evaluate customer service.
Additionally, we analyzed sample contracts from each of the brands we reviewed. This helped us break down industry jargon, identify red flags, and understand what is and is not covered so we can give that information to you.
