When I bought the house, the previous homeowners provided a Cinch warranty, and I just renewed it after the first year. My experience has been good. Submitting a claim is straightforward. I just called, and they got me in contact with who I needed to talk to and followed up. So, that was good. The contractors have been great. Overall, Cinch is easy to deal with. What could be improved is for us to know ahead of time the caps for everything that's covered.
Jeffrey, Thank you for the 5‑star review! We’re glad to hear your experience has been smooth and that getting support has been hassle‑free. Your feedback about making coverage limits clearer is truly appreciated and helps us continue improving. We’re grateful to have you with Cinch! Sincerely, Angela

What a complete run-around. Freezer wasn't working correctly, Technician came out stated a part was bad and couldn't be replaced. Sears/Cinch would have to give me a new fridge. He closed out the ticket, saying he replaced a part, which is not the case. Should have said a part needs to be replaced and that part cannot be sourced. Because the call center is in another country, there's a communication problem. Anyways, I called in to find out why the ticket was closed. They said they would need to reopen it and send another person to my house. I have wasted 3 days waiting for technicians or on the phone with Cinch. Cinch customer service promised a supervisor call at 930am, I even got an email appointment reminder. At 1030am I called in and asked what's up, I then get promised the supervisor will call me within a matter of minutes....no call. After hours of waiting, I call back and finally get a supervisor.....completely helpless. Once the replace this refridgerator, I will be shopping around for a new home warranty. You get this for peace of mind....what I got was frustration and insanely bad customer service.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re truly sorry for the frustration you’ve encountered and the inconvenience caused by multiple appointments, delays, and communication issues. This is not the experience we want for our customers.

It has been 12 days since I placed a claim for a water heater. It took several calls and close to a week to get a service company to come to my home. After they sent in a request for a replacement, it still has not been done. They initially supplied the service company with the incorrect replacement unit from Fergeson Plumbing supply and after the service company returned it to get a correct one, they are still waiting on Cincy to locate one. After calls to customer service, they cannot communicate within their own company to determine when a replacement will be provided and scheduled to be installed. Customer service is only equipped to provide a standard reply like "your return appointment has not yet been scheduled."
Frank - We're very sorry for the inconvenience and frustration you're experiencing with your water heater claim. This isn't the level of service we aim to provide. We acknowledge that the delays and miscommunications you've described regarding the replacement process are unacceptable and hinder timely resolution. Our team is committed to resolving your issue efficiently and ensuring you receive the correct replacement unit as soon as possible. A dedicated representative will be reaching out to you directly to update you on the status of your claim and the steps we are taking to expedite a resolution. Your feedback is invaluable, and we appreciate the opportunity to address this situation. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Cinch paid to replace my oven. However, it took three weeks before I finally got the check. It got off to a horrendous start but once I was finally hooked to Amber, things started smoothing out and going correctly. Up to that point, I was about to lose my mind because their customer service was horrible. The range was 31 years old and the initial guy that came out couldn't get parts for it. Cinch then sent another repairman from another repair place and when he got out here, he didn't know what he was getting into. Once I raised a bunch of heck, then things moved towards Amber, and Amber started getting things straightened out.
The previous homeowners that bought this Gold plan bought a really good plan, but I'm having to pay $635 to have the cabinets modified for the new range to fit in. It's a 27-inch range which is very uncommon. There's only one that makes them. It's a drop-in. However, when the company called me up to deliver the new range, they said that all they would do is put it in my garage. They would not bring it in the house. They would not install it, and they would not take the old one away. Amber said that she would attempt to recover some of that money for me. If they recover, I'll forget all the trespasses.
I have talked the two different appliance repair people who come out here, and I asked them what they thought about Cinch. One of them said who he would go with. That gave me an indication that Cinch might not be the best home warranty there is. When it comes at the end of the year to renew it, I don't know if I will renew or not. I don't even know what the plan costs.
Eugene, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re glad the replacement was ultimately approved, and we appreciate you acknowledging Amber’s efforts to turn things around. We’re truly sorry for the delays, communication issues, and frustrations you faced along the way—your situation should have been handled far more smoothly from the start. Your feedback about delivery, installation, and clarity around additional costs is extremely valuable, and we’ve shared it with the appropriate teams. We hope the continued support you receive helps restore your confidence in us, and we appreciate the opportunity to make this right. Sincerely, Angela

Cinch Home has been great and I’ve had them for almost two years now. I heard of them through the realtor when I purchased the house I have now. It was the same company that the previous owners were using for their home warranty and it was part of the closing cost that the previous owners had agreed to supply me with a year of home warranty. I submit my claims through the Cinch Home website and it is stellar. The process of submitting a service request is quite simple. I did my last claim through my phone and their online app was very user-friendly. Then they sent an email and a text message letting me know the name of the contractor who would come, and the day and time they would come. The contractor who came was good and I've had no issues so far. The same problem happened twice now with the washing machine. But it’s been resolved.
Having Cinch Home gives me peace of mind, knowing that if something will happen, it's more than likely always going to happen at the most inappropriate time - and if that were the case, I would not worry because I can use the warranty. Overall, I would recommend Cinch Home to others. They have excellent customer service and the coverage is very good. The price is great, too.
Yamirla, Thank you so much for your 5‑star review! We’re thrilled to hear that your experience has been smooth and reliable.

My real estate agent recommended Cinch. She said that they were the best out of the ones that she's worked with. When I submitted a claim, the experience was fairly easy. Cinch didn't have the provider that I wanted to use, but they were able to help me find a provider that I was happy with. I wish they had more providers, but I was eventually able to find one to be able to do the work that had good reviews and that I trusted. They were able to get everything done quickly.
Thank you so much for your 5‑star review! We’re happy to hear that your real estate agent recommended us and that your claim experience went smoothly.

Cinch's home warranty was offered as a part of my real estate deal, and I've lived in this house for about six weeks. It was easy to submit a claim by phone and they did everything they said they were going to do. Everything was fine. I'd tell people to get the home warranty when they can.

We bought a home, and the Realtor gave us, as a gift, a year's coverage through HMS. They changed to Cinch Home Services and we've had the home warranty for three years. I do claims over the phone, which has been easier than it used to be. It usually takes one or two days for someone to come out and we've had some good contractors. The last few times we've called someone out, we've been very pleased.
I had someone out last week because the furnace wasn't working and I was bit cross with them because it was cold. I wished I could have had same day service, but I know that wasn't possible. It ended up taking four days because they had to order parts. Overall, Cinch Home Services is good. Go ahead and get a home warranty.

I have been with Cinch since I purchased the home and I don’t remember signing up as being difficult. The customer service is great but it takes a while to get to someone. Over the years, there may have been one or two situations where the first technician didn’t complete the job and it had to be reassigned to someone else. But overall, they’ve been professional and good. 95% of the time, they get here within a day or two of being assigned. I had to call the representative a couple of times, but mostly, they call me to figure out the time.

Cinch came with the house when I bought it eight years ago. I've used the service and I love the quick turnaround. However this latest claim, it was for the heat and I thought it would be more urgent. The heat went out right after the snow storm. So, my house dropped to 30 degrees, and I had to wait two days in the cold for somebody to come. I wish they had gotten here sooner. This was the first time I've really had to wait, and it really impacted me. When the service guy came out, he replaced something and everything has been working like it's supposed to.

To submit a claim with Cinch, you go online, log into your account, and you specify what you need to have them come look at. You need to pay your deductible, and then they will set up an appointment. They will contact whoever they are contracted with, and that company will then contact you to have an appointment time to come out and look at whatever things you need fixed.
So far, all the the contractors that I've had to deal with have been okay. It's just I didn't like the company that I had to deal with for my washing machine very much. I had them come out and look at my washing machine because it wasn't working. They replaced the parts that were broken to make it work. But in the process of doing so, the whole thing went down. I went to go use it again, and it ended up flooding out my basement. They said that they fixed what they were supposed to fix so it wasn't their fault. They weren't out there for that reason. They were out to fix something else, and then something else happened. So, I just left it at that. I’ve had Cinch for 20 some odd years, and I've only had one bad experience. Overall, it's an investment worth having.

This is the first time I used Cinch Home Services and it wasn't hard. I had additionally called in, but everything else was through the web portal which was good.

I'm a property manager. I have about 20 properties, and I'm a real estate agent as well, and for 10-15 years, I've had Cinch. I recommended their warranty for new buyers that were buying a house. Then when I started property management, there were some of my clients that are recommended to Cinch. The properties were older or the utility appliances were older, and I would recommend that they buy the warranty to control their repair costs.
I've had lots of claims filed recently. We just had a thing for HVAC on a property. It was easy doing the claim online. The challenge is getting a service person out in a timely fashion. I just filed another claim for that same property for somebody to come back because the HVAC has problems. Being the 5th, the appointment that Sears got back to me about would be they would be there on the 18th, which is almost two weeks out, so I have to call Cinch and say that's not acceptable and see what they can do to get there faster.
Most of the time, over the years, if I've had to call in and try and get something adjusted or change a service date because it's just too far out, they've been very good at handling that. Also, I can't remember any technician that I butted heads with. All of them have been knowledgeable and have handled things in a timely manner once they're there. The only thing that is costing Cinch some business is they've raised their prices and some of my clients have decided not to renew them. I’ve noticed in the last few times I've been on the website that for new customers, they're offering a 30% discount. I've never seen that before.

My house came with an automatic two-year warranty and I’ve owned my house for quite a while, so I’ve been with Cinch for a long time. I've had good luck with them and they’re responsive too. Just recently, my furnace would light up and then go out. I didn't realize it until the middle of the night, but the following day, a tech showed up and fixed the problem. You can do your service request by phone or online but it's easier to do it online. It works better and I prefer to use the web page because I can put more information in there. You write what your issue is, and a lot of times, Cinch will call you back and look for more information, like a model number, in case you didn’t provide it. It helped me because they've worked on it before and they could see from the previous calls what it was from their technicians.
I used to have two houses and I had Cinch on both of them. In my other house, the drain was plugged and the people who showed up wanted to pull out my bathtub. I said no and called Roto Rooter. The techs came and cleaned it out. Then, I called Cinch and told them what was going on, and they reimbursed me for what Roto Rooter cost me. I’ve had a good experience with Cinch. When I first got the warranty, it was cheaper, and now it's more expensive monthly, but I understand. The price is high but it comes with the convenience of when I have a problem in the middle of the night, I can get a hold of someone.

Called for Dryer repair in January. Technician wasn't able to come until early February. When the technician finally came, he said something about the glass needing to be replaced. Since I wasn't hearing anything about what was going on, I finally decided to call the Service Provider first (who said they were waiting for approval from Cinch), then Cinch (who said that it wasn't covered!). How was anyone even supposed to know that, if nobody told them?! The plan documents say that ALL components and parts are Covered, except those shown in the Not Covered section ... which is the Temperature Booster & Steam Nozzle. I've been paying almost $60/month for at least a couple of years ... for what looks like nothing! I'm very disappointed with this home warranty repair company. Probably better off saving your $60/month to buy a new appliance when it breaks.

What I love about it is that I know how much it's going to cost me out of pocket, with some exceptions. If there are other things associated with the repair that're outside the scope of the work, then I know I'm responsible for paying for that. But I know upfront how much the deductible is going to be.

Submitting a claim to Cinch has been reasonably easy. The big claim that I had was the washing machine, and that one ended up being kind of a problem. Cinch couldn't find a technician because I had an LG and there wasn't anybody that would work on it, so I had to find my own technician. Then it ended up having to get referred up to several levels, because the technician I found wouldn't put in the parts. So Cinch ended up getting me a new washing machine, but it took close to a month to get the claim resolved. The most recent claim I had was when our furnace wasn't working. The tech came in and found that it was a dirty flame sensor. It was quick and easy and not a problem.

The contractors seemed fine. However, I've had a frustrating experience. It's hard to talk to anyone from Cinch Home Services who you can understand. And when trying to escalate a situation, it can be very difficult when it's an emergency. Recently, my furnace went out. We are still in the middle of it. It has been going on for 36 days. We're waiting on a furnace.
Cinch will replace the entire furnace, but we had to go through the process of them ordering the part to fix it, but the furnace is so old and they don't make that part anymore. They tried to get a used part and tried to have the contractor put a used part in there, but I denied it because it was for our gas valves, and I don't trust it. After I told them and fought them for the past 30 days, they finally decided to replace the entire furnace. All home warranties suck. You get what you pay for. I've never heard anything good about home warranties, but they are replacing the furnace now. That's the positive about it.

My husband had been repeatedly trying to reach out to the guy that did the work and it's kind of disappointing 'cause we're stuck in limbo right now.

Our Realtor chose Cinch Home Services for us and signed us up. We've had the home warranty for about three months and we've done a couple claims online.

Cinch hasn't been the best but it's been okay. I had a couple surprises. I had the latest claim to see if I can get my water heater replaced. They say they're gonna replace it, but then it's gonna cost me $1,688. So, I wasn't expecting that. I guess they don't cover parts when they replace the unit. So, I'm a little disappointed. They’ve been waiting for my acceptance response so that the service company come in and make the replacement and get the particular permits he needs to replace the water heater. So, other than that, I've been with them for a lot of years.
Victor, Thank you for sharing your feedback and for being with us for so many years — we truly appreciate your loyalty. We understand that finding unexpected charges during your water heater replacement can be frustrating, and we apologize for any inconvenience this caused.
In many cases, costs related to code upgrades, permit requirements, and certain modifications are not covered under the home warranty. These items can vary based on local building codes and the age or condition of the existing system, which may explain the additional $1,688 you were quoted. We know these types of expenses can feel surprising, and we’re here to help clarify what is and isn’t covered so you can move forward with confidence.
We’re glad to hear that the replacement has already been approved and that the service company is ready to proceed once you provide your acceptance. If you'd like help reviewing your coverage or understanding the charges in more detail, we’d be more than happy to assist.

I have been with Cinch now for four years, and I just renewed my warranty with them. What I love most about the service is that I have a representative that will call me when it's at least 30 to 60 days prior to having to renew. That is really good. Anytime I've had a problem with the components that's under warranty, it has always been handled in a fast way, within that week. I don't have much of time wait with them and I have no worries when I know I have to contact Cinch for any product in my home that's under the warranty. The contractors are excellent as well.
The most recent claim that I experienced did not go all the way through. The problem that I had was with my Samsung microwave, but it was suggested that I go through the vendor because my warranty on that was for one year. But when I called Samsung, it took them a week to set up something for me, and they charged me 100 and something dollars for them to come out so I didn't see the benefit in that. It's a built-in microwave. The guy from Samsung thought it was a regular microwave that you buy and set up on the counter. I need to contact Cinch to find out which way do I need to go in this matter.

My home warranty got swapped to Cinch somehow, and I just continued with whom I had because I didn't want to deal with getting somebody else who’ll probably ask me a bunch of questions. Originally, it was offered to me by my mortgage company, and I don't have a mortgage company anymore. When I first used Cinch, things were a lot better than it did with other people. My washing machine started leaking and I called Cinch. They got my information, the information on the washing machine, and sent somebody out here to work on it.
The tech was nice. I talked to him a little bit and he looked at the washer. He said it was too old to get parts, and I was gonna have to get a new one. I chose not to get one that was offered to me and took the money because I didn't like the brand that was offered to me. It was a pleasant experience, and it didn't take long to get everything done. I got the check faster than when they said I'd get it. They said it's gonna be 10 and I got the check in 3 days. Everything went the way it was supposed to.

Submitting a claim is an easy process. You can do it online or you can call Cinch up and give them the issue. They pretty much take care of that pretty quick with assigning someone to come out and fix the issues that you have. The reps have always been pleasant and very helpful. There's only one vendor that they need to take off their list, though. I dealt with that heating and air vendor before but Cinch took care of that pretty quickly and sent us out a new vendor. But this was after that vendor had already collected some funds from me. He was very unprofessional and didn't do anything that he said he was gonna do. Everything else has been good.
The last vendor I had that came out did the job like it was supposed to, and everything was working fine.

Cinch Home took over the company I was with and I've been with that company for almost 28 to 30 years. Whenever I have a claim, I call Cinch it’s difficult now to reach them.

The door contractor I had was very good and I didn't have a problem with him. It was a matter of getting in contact with somebody.
At that particular time, me and my wife's car, were both in the garage and the door wouldn’t open. I needed my car. So, a couple of my friends came over and we lifted the garage open to get the cars out. Then the tech came two days later. Also, Cinch said they didn't cover it, so I'm not really a Cinch lover. They tried telling me a few things that they said were covered, but it didn't make sense to me, because everything on the garage door should be covered if you're going to pay the kind of money you pay. But they said that was the policy. My neighbor told me he could have fixed it though, because I got a lot of friends that do a lot of things. So I'm thinking about getting another policy with somebody else. I would also tell a friend or family member to better check with somebody else and see which one is the best before they take Cinch.
James, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We truly understand how stressful and urgent the situation must have felt when your garage door spring broke and both vehicles were unable to exit. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and delays you encountered.
We also want to clarify how coverage works for garage door systems under your warranty. Your plan covers the garage door opener, including all components and parts located inside the ceiling‑mounted electric motor. However, as stated in the warranty, items such as door track assemblies, cables, and springs are specifically listed as not covered. We apologize for any misunderstanding or disappointment this may have caused, as we know unexpected expenses can be frustrating.
We’re glad to hear the service technician you worked with provided a positive experience, but we regret that our communication and response times did not meet your expectations. We appreciate your many years of loyalty and are committed to improving the service experience for all of our customers.
If you would like to discuss your claim in more detail or review your coverage further, we are here and happy to help. Sincerely, Brooklyn

I called Cinch and asked for somebody to come out and help with the stove. The contractor came and fixed it, as far as we could tell. It was fine for the first week, but I need to call them back after the snowstorm now. I'm still smelling gas when I use my oven. So, it's scary. It's doing the same nonsense it was doing before. But the technician that came out before was wonderful. He made it fast because he knew I was having company that week. It was before Christmas, and I needed to use my oven. He finagled it around till he could get here as fast as possible. He was very gracious. He came back two times, one to check it out, and then went and ordered parts and then came back again. So, it was fine.
We've only been back in Maryland for two years and Cinch fixed my garage the first year that I was here. The guy who came out for that was wonderful, too. But I didn't like that the prices went up. It used to be $100 when you called and they asked somebody to come out. But now it's up to 150. The people that need the help are usually old people like me. I lost my husband in September. Getting Social Security straightened out takes about three months if you're lucky. So, it makes it tight for people of my age bracket.

Cinch Home Services was recommended to us by our agent who sold us the house. Filing claims online has been easy. However, the contractors that Cinch ends up using are sometimes hit or miss. It depends on the situation. It varies from problem to problem. It's usually some kind of appliance that's malfunctioning. It's an easy fix. Sometimes it's a replacement of the appliance. But the Cinch side of things has always been positive.
We recently replaced the stovetop. Cinch gave us a specific type, but I wanted a different one so they gave me a cash payment for the one that I chose. They're easy to deal with. That amount was fair. They're not gonna pay for the high-end one. I'd recommend Cinch as long as you have an expectation that you're gonna use it a fair amount, because the deductibles and monthly payments can rack up. If you don't have any calls to use it, it can get expensive. But as long as you need to use it at least once a year on a significant home repair, it's worth it.
Jimmy - Thank you for your thoughtful feedback about your experience with Cinch Home Services. We’re glad to hear that filing claims online has been easy for you and that the opportunity to receive a cash option for your stovetop met your expectations.

I have had Sears home warranty for many years, and now it is Cinch home warranty. The service has gone down hill. The AI can only handle simple requests. If you need to talk to a live person, you have to call to cancel your contract. If you have a cheap appliance they are happy to fix it no problem, if you have a high end brand they can't ever seem to find a tech to work on it. I have an open ticket for the last 5 months, with many techs showing up and saying they can't fix it, or if they could they wanted me to pay out of pocket.
Don't use this company unless your have really cheap appliances and you don't ever want to talk to a human.

Until last month I liked cinch home services. However, two months ago our furnace stopped working. In the middle of winter. We have kids and temperatures have been below freezing. They finally approved a replacement last month, but it has taken several weeks after the approval and we are still waiting for it to be replaced. In the meantime our water heater also died. They couldn't find a plumber who was willing to come out to fix it, so approved me to find my own. He was fast, but they no longer make the parts to repair the heater, so my plumber said we had to replace it. We submitted all necessary paperwork, and they came back with approval to fix the part. Now I can't find anyone who knows what is going on and can help us. I am beyond frustrated.

This is my complaint:
In November 2025 a week before Thanksgiving, I requested a claim about my electric range which is not working and I can't cook anything. With Cinch they asked us to pay our co-pay before they send technicians over so I paid my 150 dollars co pay. They assigned the job to some providers who refused to come in as if they asked me on the phone what's going on with the range and if I tell them what's going on as it happens a year earlier and they replaced all the parts but the range is still having problems, they didn't want to come in and only saying that there's nothing they can do and cinch needs to replace it. And Cinch didn't want to replace it until they sent alpha appliance repair service name David. And when David came in he checked the range and said the same thing that if all the parts were changed and the stove is not working so they need to replace it and he will send them his report. So I have waiting for them for about another week and never heard from them again and I decided to call Cinch and Cinch was telling me that David ordered the parts and he will receive the part in 4 days and he will schedule service with me. So I was confused about the whole situation. I waited after 4 days but nothing so I called David and David was telling me that he told Cinch that they need to replace the range but they don't want to and asking me to order the parts to try to fix it and he order the parts and the parts will come after the 1st of January (new year day). So from December 9th 2025 David came in to check the range and I spoke with him around December 18 and I never heard from him until last Friday January 23 rd. Cinch never get back to me to see or tell me what's going on. I called on January 21st I very mad because they are charging my account every single month of 70.87 dollars and I have problems with my range and they don't care, it's really bad and unfair and abusive and discriminate because they will not do that to any narrative Americans. On the 21st of January they told me David received the parts and will come on January 23 at 3:30pm. I have been waiting for until 4:30 no show up and no answer my phone call until I started texting him and he called back and started fighting with me saying that he traveled and he was not town and right now he is busy and can't come. And why? David is working with 3 other people and why doesn't he transfer the job request to his colleague before travel ? And when he came back why he didn't call me to schedule an appointment? And what's Cinch responsibility in this situation? Why treating me like this? The broken range is emergency situation. Who does not eat? From November untill now January 28 I can't cook in my house but I'm still paying for appliances home warranty. I called cinch on that Friday and they sent the service request to another company called Absolute appliance repair LLC saying that they will come to my house on January 27 to check the range. They never told me what time. And in the morning around 7 I received a text message from them that the service provider is on his way. I was not home, I was stuck at work since Saturday and my home they didn't clean and there is no way to get there and there's no way to park so I called them right away and told them the situation. And the guy asked me when I will be home and what time is good for me and I told him today January 28 between 7 to 9 am. So he said it's ok for him and he will be in my house. So this morning early in the morning I got up to clean little bit the snow which became ice for him to be able to park behind my car and have been waiting for him until 9:30 and the guy never showed up. I have been texting him from 7 to 9 but never responded and when I called him at 9:30 he seems like he never talked to me or know anything about anything and saying let me call me call you back and never called back until now it's 1:30pm. And because of this I went to work late.
Please please I need your help in this situation. I wanted my range to be replaced right away because this is too much. Cinch kept increasing my premium for no reason and there is no way to be treated like this as animals. Even animals we take a good care of them.

I purchased my house about three years ago and Cinch Home Services was one of the companies that contacted me. I went with another company but I didn't like them.

When I call for service, they always respond back to me and give me the time and date when someone's gonna be over, which could take as many as three days. It's usually no longer than a few days. One time, it was right after the next day. I've been happy with service providers so far. I've been satisfied with Cinch as well.

I’m not one to complain, but this particular experience was a negative one. My Maytag dishwasher’s touchpad quit working. It has a stainless steel exterior. I called Cinch, who sent a tech within a couple of days. The tech said he had to order a replacement touch pad that could take about 2 weeks. I said ok, no problem. The tech returned with the replacement touchpad about a week later. He replaced with a white replacement touchpad that didn’t match the machine and it started separating from the machine 2 weeks later. Even though I’ve had conversations with Cinch and the tech, the tech has never come back to fix it. I’m canceling Cinch. I’m done with shoddy workmanship and no accountability.
We’re glad to hear that your claim is now moving toward a proper resolution, including the deductible reimbursement and the follow‑up appointment to address the touchpad. It’s wonderful to know that Sheila provided the attentive support you needed and helped restore confidence in your service.

I wanted to like Cinch, but after several years I can tell you that they just aren't able to back up their promises. Our HVAC system has a leak. We had several repairmen tell them the system needed to be replaced. We are on year 3 of just refilling the Freon and not fixing the problem.
I have had my dryer "fixed" twice, but the sensors still don't work after two different service calls. I need to manually adjust it so that it is timed with specified heat, otherwise it stops after 15 minutes.
My microwave died so they said they would replace it! It is too small, they didn't install it, and they didn't include the extension pieces since they didn't get me one large enough for the space. After several calls, they sent me a check for the extension piece but still said I was on my own to install it all. So definitely keep in mind that their idea of a replacement is very fluid. It also took 5 weeks.
Then we have the range. The range stopped working right before Thanksgiving. We have had a service person come out 5 times and it is still not fixed. In fact, before the range/oven was not working but the stovetop was. Now that doesn't work either. In case you are counting, we are at 8 weeks with no oven and no resolution.
The customer service professionals are very nice, but have no power. All I get are confirmation calls where they recite exactly what the service person already told me. When I ask for more information, more details, express my frustration at how long it is taking...they just very nicely restate what they already said.
I think one of these instances could be overlooked, but after several years I can say with confidence that they do not match the claims their advertisements make.

I would have given 0 stars but that was not an option. The companies that Cinch use are not good. Cinch assigned a plumber to me who had been assigned to me before. I had a terrible experience with this provider the first time and had complained to the company. However, they obviously ignore customer input and continue to use them. Second experience was not any better. The technician spent 30 seconds looking at the toilet before saying it was broken and would probably not be covered and left. This is the second time this provider has come to my house and very quickly assessed that the problem was either not covered or not a plumbing issue and left. The first time this happened I had to chase him down in my driveway to say they were wrong as water pooled in my shower. In fact it was clogged and indeed a plumbing issue. I’ll end there but don’t be fooled into thinking you are getting quality technicians with Cinch. This company has really fallen off.

Had washer & dryer "issues". Set up appointment for repairs (YES---I paid the deductible for each when setting up the appointment.). First visit the technician diagnosed the "issues" with both appliances but had to order parts. Parts for washer went straight to Sears Home Warranty (except for a bolt---that was sent to our house, along with the part for the dryer). Appointment was made to get BOTH the washer and the dryer fixed on the same day---technician showed up to fix the dryer but did NOT have an order to fix the washer!? Waited all day since the appointment(s) were confirmed for BOTH. No one showed up to fix the washer. Rescheduled for a second appointment for washer repairs another day---appointment was confirmed. No one showed up AGAIN!!! Set up a third appointment---once again the appointment was confirmed. NO ONE showed up yet AGAIN!!! I called after each "missed" appointment, but the representative just kept saying they were sorry---NO EXPLANATIONS at all. Plus, I did NOT receive any phone, text or emails about the fact that no one would show up. That meant a total of three whole days of missed work---for what? SORRY??? Now, because of my prior other appointments, I have to wait another whole week for someone to fix the washer (well, at least I have an appointment---again---for the repairs to get done). This has been the WORST customer service I have EVER received from anyone---and it ALL comes from one place!!! *IF the first appointment would have combined both the washer and dryer repairs, all of this could have been avoided.

So far, my experience with Cinch has been good. However, the communication between the service people and them, could be a little more streamlined. It seems like they don't communicate very well on what's going on with the customer. With our recent contractor, the tech came out and said that our parts for our washer were not longer available. The Cinch people didn't even know what was going on. But they would try hard to find a solution to the customer's problem. It wasn't really them, it was whoever's in charge of getting the information, like if the customer needs a replacement, and that takes a little bit longer than it should.
Sometimes the techs aren't that great, as well. It's been hit or miss because different appliances, we've had different people sometimes. For our dishwasher last year, they had to come out several times to diagnose the problem. They got the parts in, someone put in the parts wrong, then they short-circuited the motor. Then the other person came out and said, "That person did it wrong." Then, when we had them come out for our fridge, the guy broke something after the part was installed. We never called about it because it takes so long to get parts and people.
Nowadays, it's so hard to get anything accomplished with anything in life, but at least a couple of times, they've replaced our appliances. For the most part, they always answer when we call. Also, they should put the actual status online versus just saying that I have a service repair. But the reps generally try to help me when I call, and they've always been extremely nice.

The technicians have always been pleasant and well-informed.

I've used Cinch Home Services for my home here in Maryland as well as the one in Atlanta. I have them to protect myself. But I'm very disappointed in some of the aspects. Last year, I had a problem where my outside faucet was leaking and I called Cinch. They sent out a plumber from All Star Plumber, who looked at it and saw that the water was leaking from the spigot. The guy started jiggling it and broke it. He then informed me that to fix it, they were gonna have to go inside my wall and replace the pipe. He called Cinch and they said that wasn’t covered. They were going to give it to a higher-up, but they never approved it. I explained everything to Cinch but they said I was gonna have to come out of my pocket $1,300. So, it’s a bad experience. It's still broke to this day and I'm disappointed.
The only reason why I got Cinch is that they do the small stuff, and I don't wanna take the chance of not having them and something major happens, and then I'm not covered. I wish I had the paperwork, but they have it. I pay them monthly, so when something happens, I pay the deductible and then stuff gets fixed. But in this situation, I could have just gone to a regular plumber and asked them to fix it.
Jeramy, We're truly sorry to hear about the challenges you've faced with your policy, especially regarding the faucet repair that went unresolved. We aim for our customers to have confidence in our service coverage and case handling—but we fell short in your situation. Your experience does not reflect the high standards we set for our service.
We appreciate you taking the time to share these details with us, and we would like to assist you further. Sharing your feedback with our case managers allows us the opportunity to define better service paths. Please allow us to review your account thoroughly. A Specialist will contact you soon to provide further assistance directly.

The service cost with Cinch went from $50 to $125 to $150. Before they’ll even accept the call for a service request, they want $150. It's not a deductible or a copay. It is upfront. But other than that, Cinch is good. I’ve had them for about five to six years and the techs are top-notch and know what they’re doing. The guy who came for my refrigerator freezer gave me a call twice to let me know that he was 30 minutes out and would be here in a little bit. He called me about 45 minutes later and said he got lost. But it wasn't a problem. The guy gave me an alert to what was going on.
I don’t like going on the computer though to submit claims because the problem options that Cinch list don’t always match what’s wrong. For example, with my refrigerator and freezer, which has an icemaker and filtered water, one time a specific piece broke and that wasn’t even an option to select. I ended up choosing that it wasn’t working, even though that wasn’t exactly the issue. They said they would have to look at it differently because the option I needed wasn’t there.

We got Cinch's coverage because they knocked on our door and told a great story, and now, we're going on a year with them this month. Our experience submitting claims has been great, which is surprising. We try to submit our claims by phone, but then the reps tell us to submit them online. I did it one time, then my brother did it as well. It was relatively easy and Cinch covered both issues. We didn't expect our experience to be as smooth as it has been.
One claim was for a microwave replacement and there was no contractor. Cinch Home Services just gave us a choice of three microwaves and we got the problem solved. The other claim was when we had a problem with the HVAC. The first time they sent somebody out wasn't the best situation, but they followed up right away the second time and it worked out fine. Cinch's home warranty is a product or service that people should consider, because so far, it's worked fine for us. We needed them twice and both times they came through. They've kept their word and they did everything that they promised they would do. They would replace or repair, and they did that.

Submitting a claim is easy but sometimes, it's hard to get a provider to come out in my area. Initially, it would take a week to get someone to come out. But for the issue we’re having now, it has taken a couple of weeks. The people are good. It's just it's still not fixed. Our heat pump system is outdated and the whole system keeps breaking. The air does not work, but we don't need it right now, so Cinch is not fixing it. So next year, we'll have to open up a claim again to get it fixed. We had a new company this last time, but the guy before was from Sears. He was very nice but very frustrated because he was having issues with Cinch. He was saying our whole system needed to be replaced, and it has become a back-and-forth, and he wasn't happy.

We are satisfied because Cinch is online. It will be easy to log in and get things moving. Also, we had a good experience with the customer service. I had to call the first time I placed a claim, and she guided me. But after that, I started doing it on my own without any help. Everything was good with Cinch up to the past few months. But I need somebody to come and look at my HVAC and fix the issue. My temperature is consistently at 66 and not going above it, so it is cold in our upper bedrooms. I have to call Cinch again and again, even today, to place a new claim for the same equipment. My problem has not been resolved but I have no complaint about Cinch. They did a good job previously, so I'm confident that if I call them today, they will send somebody by tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
When you move from one company to another, they usually give you a good rate at first, but over time, they gradually increase it once you stay with them. That’s what happened to us, and sometimes I feel that. But because the service is good, I get everything when I need it and as quickly as possible. Cinch even follows up to check if the technician came and what the situation is. They ask for updates, and not many companies do that. So service-wise, I have no complaints. Prices are increasing and as a common person, I would also prefer something less. But there is no other option, so I am paying the price to have the warranty with Cinch. We had a good experience, so people should consider it.

I bought my house two years ago with a warranty from Cinch but it was only recently that I’ve had to use them. The gentleman came out in a timely fashion. I submitted the claim, paid the deductible, and the company contracted by Cinch contacted me the next business day to schedule an appointment. He came and resolved the issue in the garage. The deductible was too steep though for the minor procedure that he did. I might have saved some money by hiring someone else for the job. And of I knew how to do what he did, I could have done it myself. But I haven’t had any problems with Cinch. If I use it, then I must like it because I'm not just gonna throw away my money.

The last experience I had with Cinch was kind of lengthy. About three years ago, I called them and someone came and replaced a water heater for me. This was just before Christmas and the water tank was leaking. It's less than three years old. They did the job but it wasn't a great experience. The claims process was smooth but I ended up still paying $1,300 for extras on the thing that needed to be done. I was told that labor wasn't covered and it would lose warranty. I was being presented with a bill that could go $2,700. I got very upset because this was costing more than the original.
It didn't seem right that all of a sudden, everything was pushed back on me to fix something that they had someone fix. We escalated the problem, and I actually had to pull a little muscle. My friend has been using them for a long time and knowing that my friend has clout, they decided to cover the whole thing. They took care of everything, and they gave me contact with a nice plumber in Florida who was very helpful. They were really competent. They pointed out all the things that the original installation person did and why it led to the tank going bad.

I've had Cinch since I moved into our house 12 years ago and I have no complaints whatsoever. Having them is painless and excellent. Their claims representatives are extremely professional, they're great. But of all the times I've had people come out, I had one technician that I didn't like. He was cursing while he was doing the plumbing. It was a bad experience, but I wouldn't blame that on Cinch. I'll be renewing them again when renewal time comes.

I will recommend Cinch for people who want them. Filing claims was smooth and I didn't have any problems doing that. The system was pretty much electronic, so you send the request to pay your deductible, and it starts moving from there.
They replaced my microwave and it was wonderful. Someone also came and repaired the clothes dryer, but it's still not drying. I tried to reach out to them, but I'm seeing that they're still waiting for an update on the diagnosis report. They couldn't do anything. That's something else I need to look into with them. That's the only bad thing but beyond that, everything else was good.

I’ve been with Cinch since 2020. However, the price goes up every year. The worst part about it is when you call in to make a claim, they're foreigners and they're very hard to understand. My mom joined them two years ago ‘cause that's what I had and she has the same problem. She has a hard time understanding them and they have a hard time understanding you.
When I submitted a plumbing claim, they would tell me to wait 24 hours or so long and they would let me know. When I would call them, they would never answer the calls. They never answer you out of Cleveland. They called a plumber from my county and then I've asked for them ever since. I've never had any problems with them.
When my refrigerator leaked all over my floor and they were supposed to send somebody out, it took a few days to get them out here. It was the weekend. Then it was the following week and it warped my floor. I was really mad. But with my furnace claim, a couple of months ago, I didn't have any problem.

I had two claims with Cinch. For my water heater, it was fixed very well, professionally, and very quickly. That was a good experience. They got a better company who worked on that. The claims representatives are always good. However, the second claim is still in the process. It is for my cooktop and it has been a long time. They could not find anybody good.
They have sent three companies. The first company came and they could not do it because there was a recall. They sent another and they were not able to do it as well. People came, they checked, they went and said they would order the parts. But after ten days of waiting, I received a call from Cinch saying the contractor couldn't do it and they would send another person. I explained it's not easy for customers to accommodate for someone to come again. It was very difficult to do that.
I asked the representative if they asked the other two contractors what the reason was. It was their job to ask for the reason. It was a recall so they should tell the next person before they send them. But I don't really blame her because her job was just to dispatch. The third contractor came today and asked what was the problem, so he did not know anything. To me, if it is already the third time, I will definitely let the technician know that this is the problem.
But overall, Cinch as well as the people they send are very professional and polite.

Updated on 12/23/2025: This is an update to the original review I posted below this post.
We received a phone call from Cinch after the review went "live". They pointed out that they sent a check but it had never been cashed. We never received it in the mail, and this was not in line with what we were told on the phone.
There was obviously a miscommunication. The company doesn't deserve the original review that I posted. However, there is still a huge language gap here. A US-based company should be using real US-based employees who speak real English. I am still deducting points for this, but I am only upgrading them to a "3" for this reason and for how difficult they made the whole process, which seemed to be deliberately obstructive. If a company is going to offer coverage for a particular category of problem, they should contract with someone in the affected area rather than making the customer do all of the legwork.
Original Review: Zero stars. Negative stars, if that were possible...
So we got a Cinch policy when we bought a house. We paid about 800 extra to have some plumbing and other extra coverage.We ended up having a clogged plumbing line. We called Cinch and they said they didn't have anyone in network in our area. However, if we paid the 200 dollar deductible, they would be happy to let us call around and find one ourselves. We paid the deductible and found a contractor to fix the problem, after jumping through a series of Cinch-devised hoops.
We never did speak to anyone who didn't have such a heavy ** accent that we could a treally understand everything they said...
The contractor charged 300 which was the limit that Cinch would cover without more hoops to jump through, involving possibly days without the use of our water. Cinch approved the repair and stated a 100 dollar check would be approved to cover the difference between our deductible and the price of the service.
The next day, the "fix" that the contractor deliverd was no longer a fix. It required more work. We paid for that service and submitted the claim. Cinch stewed over this for some time and then denied the claim altogether. We had to pick a fight with them to even get our deductible back, which they were going to keep.
I can't say enough bad things about this company. Their warranty isn't worth the paper it is written on. Their customer service is terrible. It is automated to the point of frustration, and then when you finally do talk to someone, it will be in a language that only resembles English. Choose another company.

I am writing this review to share my recent and extremely frustrating experience with Cinch Home Warranty. I would strongly recommend that homeowners do not use this company.
Two weeks ago, my home lost heat completely. This was during winter, with outside temperatures dropping as low as 17 degrees, and I have roommates and animals in the home. I immediately contacted Cinch to file a claim.
Cinch sent a contractor (Sensorable Home Warranty) out two days later. The technician attempted a repair, but it did not fix the problem. He told me clearly that multiple components were broken and that Cinch should be able to cover them. He said I should hear back from Cinch about the next steps.
Instead, the very next day, I received a message from Cinch stating that the repair was complete, which was absolutely not true. I had no heat, and no further work had been done. Cinch apparently had no idea the repair failed, and no follow-up had been scheduled. I had to call them myself to explain that the issue was unresolved.
I made it very clear that this needed to be fixed before Sunday, because of the dangerously low temperatures. Cinch assured me they would send someone out.No one came Friday.
No one came Saturday.
No one came Sunday.
No one came Monday.
My household had to live without heat for nearly two weeks.
When I called again — understandably upset — Cinch apologized and said they would send a different, local company because the first one was “bad.” That new company finally came out the next day. The technician did a better temporary fix that partially worked, but confirmed several parts were still broken. He submitted everything immediately.
The next day, I received an email stating that none of the needed parts would be covered. All of them. The total cost would be over $350 out of pocket, on top of my service fee, higher electric bills from running alternatives, and two weeks without heat.
What makes this worse is that their own contract does not clearly state these parts are excluded, and their basic warranty language suggests they should be covered. When I asked Cinch why they refused coverage, I was told that the parts were supposedly under manufacturer warranty, and that I would have to call the manufacturer myself and deal with it on my own.
At that point, I asked a simple question:What exactly am I paying Cinch Home Warranty for?
Their response was essentially: We’re sorry for your experience, but we won’t help you.
No solution.No escalation.
No assistance coordinating the manufacturer warranty.
No reimbursement.
No concern for the fact that we were without heat in freezing weather.
Just apologies and excuses.
This experience showed me that Cinch Home Warranty does not stand behind their customers when it matters most. When you actually need coverage, they delay, miscommunicate, deny claims, and shift the responsibility back onto you.
Marcus, We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and understand how distressing it can be to be without heat during winter conditions. This is not the level of service we aim to provide, and we recognize the frustration caused by the delays, communication issues, and coverage concerns you described.

The experience with Cinch was average but I was happy with it once everything was done. I called in for my furnace, and I was a little skeptical when I spoke to the person on the phone because it sounded like a call center, and they wanted $100 upfront to schedule somebody to come out. But it ended up working out just fine. It took some time because the company they used was an hour away from us, and the guy rescheduled my service to coincide with another service call up in our area a few days later. He wanted to do both in one day so he didn’t have to make two trips. But he was great. I liked him. He was very personable and he did the job very quickly. The furnace works right and it doesn't make terrible noises anymore, so he did a good job.

Michael, Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear that your heater repair was handled quickly and efficiently, especially during the cold winter months. It’s great to know that submitting a claim and getting a technician dispatched was straightforward and hassle-free. We’re also glad you’ve extended your warranty and that our service continues to give you peace of mind. Your feedback means a lot, and we appreciate you trusting us as your home warranty provider!

When I had an issue with my heating unit, Cinch had Sears to do the work. I had a young boy coming in trying to tell me what my problem was, and I'm trying to tell him what I was experiencing. I had a couple of holes in the vents, and he was gonna write it up as I had a rodent problem and not a heat problem.
Within a week, I noticed I was having the same problem so I know he didn't solve it. And I had to call and pay another deductible for him to come back out again. After he came back out, he's still telling me what my problem was. And so, he finally took the unit apart. Then my son went out there and pointed out the problem to him, that the burners weren't catching up all the way across. The technician did fix it.
I did speak to the rep about that second time. He was a foreigner and it was hard for him to understand what I was saying. I had to argue with them to get my money back because the problem should have been resolved the first time he came out, and they finally refunded me.
I also don’t like the fact that Cinch has gone automated when submitting your claim and you have to pay before they find out what you want. But I haven't had any problem with them not fixing something, it's just the people that they send out there. If the technicians listen to you, they'll fix the problem.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We sincerely apologize for the frustration you faced with the claim process and the initial misdiagnosis. We’re glad that the issue was eventually resolved and that you were reimbursed for the unnecessary charges, but we understand that the process fell short of expectations. Your feedback about communication and the automated system is important, and we’ll use it to improve the experience for our customers. We appreciate your patience and hope future interactions are much smoother. Sincerely, Angela

I got Cinch from the seller when I purchased my new home because there are older mechanicals and utilities in the house. I didn’t want to have a large bill within the first year or two. They have been helpful so far.
I submitted two claims, one for the upstairs furnace and another for the washer. The pilot light wouldn’t relight on the furnace, and the circuit board needed to be replaced. They sent a gentleman out, but that didn’t go so well. I had to get an electrician. A different HVAC guy was able to resolve the issue.
Another thing was my basement washer leaked. The tech that came out a couple of times replaced two parts on it. I got to run another load to see if it’s still leaking. If it is, I’ll have him come back out. It’s fine if he wants to replace a bunch of parts on it. I just wonder if it’s more beneficial for Cinch to replace it with a new washer.
The escalation officer who handled my case was very responsive and professional. I was reimbursed very quickly for the electrician that I paid out of pocket. I was really happy with how simple that went. I've only had to pay $100 for a technician to come out because I didn't have to pay the premium. That was paid for by the seller. With two issues fixed for 100 bucks each, I'm pretty happy with the relatively low cost to fix my appliances.
Elliot, Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad to hear that our team handled your first claim professionally and that you found our customer service responsive and helpful. We appreciate your patience with the ongoing washing machine repair, and we’ll continue working to ensure the most effective solution for you.

I was researching and reviewing, and after a while, I started to see similar patterns. It was an analysis of customer service and actual use, and feedback from others that maybe have used Cinch. Our mortgage person has worked with several others, and they recommended that we look at a handful. Cinch was one that we looked at and seemed to be better in terms of the coverage.
We just purchased our home here and have been availing ourselves of their services within the first weekend. Cinch provided services for us for plumbing. Their claims process was amazing. I don't think I've ever in my life had anything as easy as that. The technicians were top shelf both in terms of being personable, professional, and cleaning up after themselves. That's one of my pet peeves, especially dealing with plumbing. I didn't want to end up with a mess on our hands.
Michael, Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear that your first claim went smoothly and that our technicians provided professional, thorough, and courteous service. Plumbing issues can be stressful, so it’s wonderful to know we could make the process hassle-free and leave your home in great condition.

I got Cinch some time ago when it was still TotalProtect. I filed several claims with them. Both companies did what they were supposed to do. The response time is a little better since Cinch took over, but it seems they cut back on the coverage a little bit. I remember before if we have like-appliances, it was covered on the same deductible. Now it seems you get charged for every appliance, even if they’re the same kind of appliance. So far, I’ve not had to call back for issues, which means that the work was done right. The guys who worked on my issues were professional.
Everett, Thank you so much for sharing your detailed experience! We’re glad to hear that both our service and the professionals we send have met your expectations and completed the work efficiently. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the changes in coverage and deductibles—this helps us understand what matters most to our customers. It’s great to know that overall, you’d recommend Cinch based on our service and responsiveness. Your input means a lot, and we’ll continue working to make your experience even better!

Months because of this person not fixing the true issue. Now we have a denial letter that they won’t no longer help us because it is not a maintenance issue. I have wasted thousands and thousands of dollars paying for this insurance that did nothing for us, to be denied to not be helped is pathetic! This is a scam! We have paid so much money for this to finally actually need the help and not be helped is disgusting!
Emily, We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating and upsetting this situation has been, especially given the length of time involved and the impact on your household expenses.

Our real estate agent signed us up with Cinch when we first bought our house. It's a nice perk. I didn't look into any other ones because my agent is also a friend and she uses Cinch. I figured she's a good resource, so we just kept with them.
It's pretty easy to submit claims online on the website. The text response is good and usually service providers come out fairly quickly. Technicians are very nice people. However, I’m always a little weary of who's coming in because you want a reputable service provider. When you Google the name, there’s no information, so it makes you wonder where these people are coming from. But their quality of work performed is good.
Kathleen - Thank you for sharing your experience with Cinch Home Services. We are delighted to hear that the convenience of our online claim submission process has been a positive aspect for you. Your appreciation of the swift coordination of services is truly valued. However, we also realize the importance of working with carefully selected service providers.

I filed a claim for my oven door issue. The technician that Cinch Home assigned for it was horrible. All he did was take a picture of my oven door and said he’ll get another oven door and be back. It could have been faster if he just told me to take a picture over the phone and send it to him. After a week, he came back and asked for my oven manual and told me, “This is how you fix your oven.” I told him I paid $150 for him to fix my oven, not for me to fix it. He was rude He would never speak to a man the way he spoke to me.
I didn't hear from him for two weeks, so I called back and told the lady about it. The next day he finally called me, and I found out he had my oven door for two weeks. He couldn’t answer my questions. The only reason he reached out to me was because the home warranty company called him. I was stressed out because I was gonna have Thanksgiving dinner at my house with no oven. It was horrible. I would never use him again, and I give him zero stars.
So far, the oven door has been fixed and I’ve had no issues with it. My previous claims with Cinch worked out fine. Their customer service is good, except you have to wait so long for them to get you somebody.
Kimberly - Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We regret that the service did not meet your expectations and apologize for the inconvenience you faced, especially during Thanksgiving preparations. This should not have been the situation, and we are sorry for any stress caused by the technician's unprofessional conduct and the delay in the service.
