      Customers in Wyoming appreciate American Home Shield’s fast and easy service, whether it's through phone or online communication. Many customers are impressed with how quickly and smoothly their claims are processed, with contractors contacting them promptly and resolving issues efficiently.

      Kevin in Gillette had an issue with his heater: “There was a noise in our heater and I was concerned that there was something wrong with the heat exchanger. I went on the website of American Home Shield and checked the box on what I wanted to submit a claim about. It was really easy to do. Then they sent out Air-Tech Heating & Air Conditioning, LLC. Initially, we were told to expect the contractor out in 24 to 48 hours but it happened quicker than that.”

      Daryl in Evansville was impressed with how easy it was to submit a claim: “Submitting a claim to American Home Shield was easy and I could do it on my phone. Air Comfort Complete was a contractor I had and they were good. They basically had to rebuild my washing machine. They tried a couple things and those didn't work. They then decided to put in a whole new motor and now, it's working like a trooper. Overall, my experience was nice.”

      Some Wyoming customers report delayed responses and poor communication from American Home Shield.

      William in Sundance expressed frustration with how few technicians are available in his area: “I live out in rural Wyoming and apparently, AHS doesn't have a whole lot of vendors here. I've had two instances where I had a water leak that they couldn't get a plumber.”

      Customers in Wyoming praise the helpfulness and professionalism of the Choice Home Warranty representatives, as well as the prompt resolution of their issues. They appreciate the coverage and peace of mind provided by the warranty.

      Joe in Laramie reported a good experience filing a claim: “I reached out to Choice Home Warranty when my refrigerator was not functioning correctly, and within 48 hours, they sent a maintenance technician to fix the problem. The issue was resolved. I am grateful for their prompt and high-quality service.”

      Ron in Casper had to file a claim for plumbing work: “Our problem was fixed. Customer service got us a Tech that could do the work. Time was about two hours.”

      Some customers express frustration over denied claims and unsatisfactory payments for replacement appliances.

      Jim in Thermopolis said: “Refrigerator went out. Estimate to repair deemed higher than replacement. Value given for replacement cost was too low. Actual cost was twice the amount awarded for virtually same appliance. The claim process was fast and easy, just the value of replacement turned out far too low.”

      Andrea in Cody said: “Cinch has been great. My microwave broke and they replaced it. I live in a very remote area, so they did not send a tech out, but they sent me a check so I could buy the microwave of my choice.”

      Stephanie in Casper had good experiences with customer service and technicians: “All the technicians that [Cinch] sent out have been wonderful. It's been good except that they couldn't find a garage door technician. Everyone I have dealt with have been wonderful.”

      Some Wyoming customers have expressed dissatisfaction with Cinch Home Services’s ability to quickly process claims.

      Garth in Casper had trouble finding a technician quickly: “It took two months to get a technician out here. Sears kept putting it off for whatever reasons. And when they showed up to do the repair, it took five minutes and it cost me 100 bucks.”

      Do you need a home warranty company in Wyoming?

      Wyoming experiences all four seasons, with long winters ranging from October to May and hot summers with temperatures between 85 and 95 degrees. Consistently using your heating system during freezing temperatures and your air conditioner during a heat wave can cause it to break down more frequently.

      Because of this, it’s important to have a comprehensive home warranty plan that covers all of your essential appliances and systems.

      Home warranty companies typically offer multiple plans that cover normal wear and tear on various systems and appliances. These plans can help protect your wallet from costly, unexpected repair bills down the road.

      However, it’s important to remember that many home warranty contracts have coverage caps and exclusions. This means that the company won’t cover certain things and will only pay up to a specific amount for repairs and replacements.

      Additionally, because winters in Wyoming can be dangerous without a heating unit, you should look at reviews and the company’s reputation for support and service before you purchase a plan.

      How are home warranties regulated in Wyoming?

      In Wyoming, the state's Department of Insurance regulates policies and service contracts for home warranties. On the department's website, you can file a complaint, report fraudulence or check a company's legitimacy.

      While vehicle service contracts and medical insurance are widely covered, there's little regulation for home warranties in Wyoming. However, Wyoming does have a few regulations in place to protect consumers, which are pretty in line with nationwide norms. The state's Department of Insurance requires that all home warranty companies comply with state laws and be properly licensed. The department also requires that all home warranty providers must:

      • Ensure that home warranty contracts are clear and easy to understand
      • Clearly state any hidden fees
      • Show proof that they are financially stable enough to be able to pay for potential claims
      • Include information about pricing and the cancellation policy
      • State the conditions, exclusions and limitations in plain language

      Wyoming's Department of Insurance also performs regular audits and financial reviews to ensure home warranty companies operate lawfully and can fulfill their promises. If they are found to violate the regulations, they can receive fines or even be shut down. This protects consumers from the risk of a home warranty company going bankrupt and leaving them without coverage.

      FAQ

      How much does a home warranty cost?

      While the national average for a home warranty ranges from $450 to $600 per year as of publishing, these costs can vary. Factors like your location in Wyoming, the specific company and plan you choose and the availability of discounts (like for bundling or purchasing multiple years of coverage) all play a role in the final cost.

      Is a home warranty worth it in Wyoming?

      A home warranty can give you peace of mind, especially if the cost of unexpected repairs or replacements of major appliances and systems would strain your budget. The decision to purchase this type of coverage depends on factors like your financial situation, the age and condition of your home's appliances and systems and your personal risk tolerance.

      » MORE: Is a home warranty worth it?

      What’s the difference between a home warranty and homeowners insurance?

      Home warranties and home insurance policies are two distinct forms of protection. Homeowners insurance is required by mortgage lenders and covers damage to your home and belongings due to events like fires, storms or theft.

      A home warranty, on the other hand, is optional and covers repairs or replacements for appliances and systems that break down due to normal wear and tear.
