I got Landmark Home Warranty when we moved. The people we deal from them have been pretty good, but the vendors that they send out are not. We've had a couple that came and I could tell they're not very experienced at what they're doing. They're either really slow to call or follow up to make the appointment. One of them was here literally for 10 minutes. He walked in, and said that I need an air conditioning company and to call somebody else but I think they will send a bill. If they do, I won't pay for it because he came at the end of the day and was two hours late. But the customer service from Landmark has been calling to follow up so that's good. I'm somewhat satisfied with them but sometimes, I choose to use somebody else because we thought it would be faster.

One of my Door springs was broke. The other worn out. They replaced one but refused to replace the second... HUGE Safety Issue! This door could come down on me or one of my family members at any time. They only fixed half of the problem -- with their Half-Assed Warranty. This company is notorious for fixing and re-fixing Home Warranty items that should have been replaced, and charging service calls time and time again, then denying replacement claims. I have had 2 contracts with this company, NO MORE! Fool me once "Shame on You"... "Fool me twice shame on me". Read the other reviews, my experience with these guys has been well chronicled in the other complaints. Steer clear of this shady company!
Thank you for providing Landmark this opportunity to address your concerns. I apologize that Landmark has not met your expectation of service on this claim. I do understand the frustration you are having with this garage door spring issue. I have pulled your complaint and will research what occurred during this situation right away. If you could please reach out to myself directly at enye@landmarkhw.com I would like the opportunity to acquire more information and provide an appropriate resolution.

Bought a house this year and was pleased to know it came with a home warranty good for one year. On November 15th 2016 I called for service on my oven. Landmark sent out a service man the very next day, we were responsible to pay the $60 service fee. The service man told us our oven was not to be turned on for safety reasons. It has now been over a month and still we have no oven.
We have called Landmark several times just to be told the part is on order and will be here this week. That's every week for 4 weeks. After calling last night to find out the status again my husband asked them what a reasonable amount of time was to wait to receive the part and was told indefinitely. This is unacceptable seeing as how it has already been over a month and still no estimated time on part delivery. We have gone through Thanksgiving and now Christmas with no oven and no definite answer as to when it will be fixed. This company is terrible.
Hello Traci,
I apologize for the poor service experience thus far. I understand the frustration with your oven repair. I am uncertain why it is taking so long to receive the part. I assure you that I will reach out to the parts department today and see how I can expedite this service request. Should you have additional concerns with your service experience, please don't hesitate to contact me directly. I am happy to help.Thank you,

Landmark Home Warranty came with the house that I bought. So far, I have submitted three claims with them. A couple of them was all right. One was a problem and they were never able to resolve it. One of their contractors was not totally honest and charged me extra that he shouldn’t have. The claim was for my air conditioning system and the tech came out and fixed the leak. He came back to put Freon in and told me that he had to add extra, which was more than he was authorized to do. And then, he said I have to pay more, so I wrote him the check. A month later, the system started acting up again and they sent out another technician from a different company, and the guy had to take Freon out because the other guy put too much in. Because it was over a month, I had to pay another service fee. And then, I was told they were going to try to get the money that the first technician charged me, and they never did.
I appreciate you sharing your experience with your A/C repair. That is definitely not the type of service you should have as a valued homeowner. I would like to look into this and see what I can do to help. Please contact me directly if you have any questions or additional information.

I was initially so excited to hear that my new home came with a wonderful one year warranty. That excitement quickly turned to irritation after their website wouldn't allow me to register my new account. This was followed by 30 minutes on hold and a transfer to some random salesperson's voicemail. Never received a call back from him. My request to have their automated system return my call never worked, either. Just to verify my account exists, then to possibly arrange for the rekey service on my locks was a complete failure. The following week, we had some electrical issues and problems with the oven. I miraculously reached a live person this time. Again, my excitement became irritation as the rep proceeded to tell me my issues did not qualify for coverage. Will I renew this "comprehensive" coverage once my year is up? Hahaha! NOPE.
I am sorry to hear about your poor experience so far. You are a valued homeowner and I apologize that you were not made to feel that way. I would like to look into your contract and see what I can do to assist you. Please contact me directly for any additional questions.

I submitted a claim for our AC unit in June of 2016. This was a follow-up of an original claim where they came and checked everything to make sure it was working. When the technician came he said that the unit was 25+ years old, was not up to government standards and had years of animal urine on it. We purchased the house in August of 2015, so all of that was out of our control. The original technician told Landmark HW that the unit needed to be replaced. They sent out another technician from a different company roughly a month later. This 2nd technician told Landmark HW the same thing.
After many follow-up calls and emails from me to find out the status of the claim, the ball finally gets rolling. Then today, 6 months after my original claim I receive a phone call saying that my claim can't be completed because it's a pre-existing condition and the unit was not maintained. Why would a home buyer purchase a home warranty unless it's for those reasons? I can assure you that I will never purchase a Landmark HW contract again.
I am sorry to hear about this clearly frustrating situation. It is not fun to be stuck without an A/C in the summer. I apologize that we were not able to service your claim within the warranty. I understand that it is upsetting to find out something is not covered under your warranty. It is always frustrating to have expenses that you did not plan for.

We contacted Landmark regarding an installed microwave with an error message on the digital read out, that beeped every 30 seconds unless unplugged. They sent a repair person, who upon inspection - said it had a bad board, and would have to be ordered. Landmark then contacted us saying they wanted our inspection report and it might not be covered since it's a pre-existing problem. We purchased this policy to cover just those types of possible issues. This is a new home for us, and though their Customer Service person is nice on the phone - this falls below our expectations of coverage.

After paying above standard pricing for several years, I have had nothing but bad communication with this company. This particular instance is not the first time I have had this issue. Most recently, I have called billing and a very kind woman in billing returned my call but referred me to renewals so I can review all of the current changes to the warranty as well as the price increase. After leaving several messages in renewals, I finally called and let them know how upset I was. STILL no call back!
Finally I got a call back from Allen in renews who left me a message, but still has not returned my call back to him. After literally 6-8 messages and 1 response from the renewal department, I am done with this company. Even when I was on hold with a customer service representative, after nearly 30 minutes we were disconnected and she never bothered to call me back! HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! I just switched to American Home Shield. They fall into the top 3 on every website I visit for consumer reviews!

Pool motor went out and Landmark sent their pool vendor; vendor sent pics and alleged a pool service tech turned on the backwash system and flooded the motor thus denied the claim. Two independent pool firms that I requested as other opinions (without mentioning the specifics - just tell me why the motor is not operable) strongly disagreed with the vendors assessment; one submitted in writing why this could not have happened based on the description of what the Landmark vendor stated.
It was clear the vendor did not even know the pool was a salt water vs fresh water pool based on what would happen if the backwash system actually was incorrectly turned on. Initially the Landmark Claims Mgr stated I would be entitled to a second opinion and I would be responsible for the additional service charge which I agreed to pay. Two days later I received a call from someone else stating they refused my request for a second opinion based on the write up and pics provided.
I was denied my right to have a second opinion as I suspect fraudulent activity to protect Landmark so they would not have to replace the pool motor which could have cost them $600+. Both of the pool companies that looked at the system and the Landmark vendor write up stated they believe the vendor purposely flooded the motor because inspection of the system less than 24 hours later revealed a bone dry motor and ground all around the area dry and the temp was in the 50's.
There simply was no other explanation because a backwash would not have flooded the motor compartment. Landmark stood behind their vendor, refused my right to have a second opinion and closed the case. This is a great example of how to screw a loyal customer with more than one warranty. I will never do business with this company again as they have demonstrated unethical practices and do not stand behind their policies. Buyers beware!!

I submitted a claim back in August to LM because my salt Cell was not working and not converting the salt to Chlorine. LM sent one of their contractors who came, checked the cell and advised that there was a problem with the cell but he fixed it and everything is working now. 3 months later I noticed that the same issue is happening again and there is no chlorine in the pool, so I called LM again and filed a new claim for the very same issue. This time LM sent a different contractor, whose diagnosis this time was that there is a broken blade inside the cell due to Calcium Build-up and that happened because the cell was not cleaned/maintained and in this case the warranty is voided.
Since this doesn’t make any sense because: A- I have a pool company that maintain my pool on a weekly basis and they clean the cell every 4 to 6 months as recommended by the manufacture. B- The first contractor they sent in August did not mention anything about calcium build-up preventing the cell from functioning (if this was the issue either he would have mentioned that or he would have removed it to make the cell works again). I called LM to dispute this denial. First they asked me for invoices to confirm that the pool is being maintained and I did send them these invoices (attached). Secondly, they requested to speak to the pool company to discuss this issue with them, and they did speak to Mr. Roy Urban from Urban pools. The guy explained to them that he cleaned the pool weekly and cleaning the cell every 4 months and that there is no way that the Calcium build-up would cause the blade inside the cell to break.
To me it looks like, the first contractor they sent back in August didn’t really fix anything but he got the cell to work somehow for few more weeks. Then the second contractor, who came in October, was not able to do the same quick fix so he blamed it on the lack of maintenance which is definitely not true. I am very disappointed at Landmark. I have been with them for several years and I pay almost a thousand dollar every year so I don’t deal with these issues. Yet they are trying to get away from paying this claim by using the very famous excuse of lack of maintenance. But the fact that I had 2 claims in 3 months for the same problem and that the first claim did not mention any maintenance concerns, confirms to me that LM is just trying to save themselves the cost of replacing my salt cell.
Thank you for giving me this opportunity to assist you. I appreciate your willingness to let me work on this issue for you. Thank you for the direct contact, I look forward to finding a resolution for you shortly.

The seller of my house provided Landmark Home warranty. Part of the agreement was that they were to pay for the first year of a home warranty, and they went with Landmark. I used it until recently to see what was going on with one of my furnaces. I called to set up a tune-up for my heating unit, and then the rep said it needed to be in working order to happen. They worked when I bought the house, and I haven't used them. Someone told me to test them, and when I did fire them up about a week and a half ago, the fan in one of them wasn't kicking on like it should. At first, I was just curious of what was going on because I know a little bit about AC and heating. The fan kicked on with the AC but not with the heater, so I knew something was wrong, possibly with the capacitor.
I called to change the tune-up to an actual service visit, so the rep just did it right over the phone. I didn't have to file a claim. It was just a simple, "The guy is going to come out. You pay the service fee. If they can fix it, they fix it. If it's not covered, then we'll talk about it." The guy got on site and troubleshot it. It was the capacitor, and he had one in his truck. He replaced it on the spot, and it was a done deal. It was very easy. The technician was super welcoming. I would definitely use that company again if I have to, unlike the first company that was supposed to reach out to me but never did. However, it was about five days before someone contacted me from Landmark to see if I had been contacted by that company. Landmark could have more follow-ups or a shorter follow-up time. Other than that, I am coming up on having to renew for next year, and I'm going to be taking a look at Landmark again to see if it's going to be a good fit for me.

We had a problem with the heater here in our home. It seemed as though it was not working so I pulled up the file that we had for Landmark Home Warranty then I called the number. A person answered the phone and said the company would help us and get right on it. Then they kept me on the phone and were able to make contact with a contractor that would come and look at the heater.
Then before we got off of the phone she asked if I'd call and confirm the appointment with the contractor. She said she had made an appointment for me but didn't know what time I was available and that the contractors are prepared to set up an appointed time. She gave me the number of the contractor and then as we finished, she asked if there was anything else she can do and I said no and that that was what we needed.
I then called the contractor. An interesting lady answered and said that the technician would be here at a certain time of day and he came almost within 60 seconds of the time they said they would be here! Then he resolved the problem within less than an hour, asked if there was anything else then went through a couple of cycles with the heater. He was really happy after I gave him $100. He was friendly, professional and trusting. The heater has worked perfectly since. We've been fairly satisfied with Landmark for quickly resolving the problem and have been happy with the contractor who solved the problem, and we haven't had any problems since.

I recently purchased a home and my realtor chose landmark as my home warranty. UPON moving in I used them to have the locks re-keyed and exterminated. After being in the home for less than 30 days my heats stopped working so I called landmark and asked if I could choose someone local and was told no, that I only had 1 company that they chose for me to come out and make repairs. After tech came out, he stated that the repairs were over $1000 and that landmark staTed they would pay for parts and labor but I had to pay for freon.
It also stated on the estimate that the $65 dollars I gave for the deductible was credited to Landmark, not me. AND it states in landmark's warranty book that they will be responsible for ALL repairs and up to $20 per pound for freon, which then totaled that I pay for 1/2 of the cost ($565) even though the warranty states they'll pay the $20 per pound.
So I called the regional manager (Amanda **) and he stated he was heading back to AZ and asked that I send him copies of the estimate and what I was needing as an outcome to resolve issue, then he would call me the next day. So I emailed the info. THAT was December 1st and as of today December 9th I have not heard from a single person from Landmark, not Amado nor anyone from Landmark to check and see if the issue has been resolved or what they could so. SO for 9 days I have had no heat and now I am having to stop arranging my son's funeral and send this letter which a grieving mother shouldn't have to do. I would strongly recommend that NO person wanting to have the basic fundamental needs of air or heat EVER use Landmark Home Warranty.

Whenever I closed my home, my realtor would recommend Landmark Home Warranty. It was part of the deal. Their claims process is a little confusing because there are several paths, either by phone or by email so I don't know which one is best or works best for me, but the customer service reps are always very attentive. With the first ones I submitted, my claims bounced around between a few different reps. I contacted them at different hours and there were different people so a mobile app or something would make it very easy for me to manage and see which would have been more helpful.
Managing my claims through email was also difficult for me. There's got to be some way to either simplify the emails that go out to us even if they don't have an app. There's so much going on on the headers of the emails and in the body of it it's kind of hard to quickly spot at a glance what's the status of my ticket and what are the next steps that I should take. That kind of stuff would be helpful and the steps of the process shouldn't be that complicated. But their reps gave me excellent customer service. They're obviously well-trained and want to help so I really appreciated that.
However, the first technician who came out took five trips before they finally determined that they need to replace the furnace. They replace it then it broke again shortly thereafter. They never got down to the root cause of the problem and were sometimes hard to get a hold of so I had to ask Landmark not to ever have them come out again. The contractor who came out after them, Reynolds Heating & Air, got down to the bottom of the issue in one day. So whenever I ask Landmark for a specific contractor, I ask for the one that I know that's local and does wonderful work. They were willing to take my recommendation on a contractor and I'm very happy about that. I'll also tweet about my experience. It's obvious that the Landmark frontline support wants to help me as their customer. I know they understand the importance of a home so they make sure that we have contractors along with that vision and that's the important thing.
I appreciate you taking the time to provide your honest feedback on your experience. It did not go as smooth as we seek to provide. I would like to let you know that we have a new website that will roll out this weekend. We also have a live chat option. We are finalizing an App as well. Your feedback is never taken lightly.

I liked Landmark Home Warranty's service. It’s affordable and they're very easy to submit a claim to, as I can just call or do it online. I never had a problem with them until recently. The day after Thanksgiving, my water heater crashed, burned, and busted open. Immediately, I called Landmark and told them what happened. They gave me a name of a plumber and I tried calling the day after Thanksgiving, so it wasn't a holiday, but I kept getting a voicemail saying that they're open from Monday to Friday, 8:00 to 6:00. It didn't say that they were closed for the holiday weekend, so I thought that they were working. I tried to call their emergency number, and there was no answer too.
The problem was discovered in my house about 9 o' clock in the morning, but we did not get a hold of a plumber until 11:15 in the morning, and even though I was leaving voicemail after voicemail, I was not being called back. Finally, I called Landmark and they were like, "Well, we gave you a number of the plumber." But that's not acceptable. Everybody that I got was giving me the runaround. A manager I spoke to said that they already gave me the name of a plumber, it's the holiday weekend, and unfortunately, there's nothing they can do. That's not correct. If they have a hundred plumbers and none of them are available, I should be able to call a plumber and they pay for it.
At this point, I’ve got water running out of my garage, flooding it. But the backroom managers kept saying no. After being hung up on by one of them, it was another 20 minutes trying to get reconnected. Finally, I got Brian, who was incredible. I told him Landmark can't just give me names of plumbers and say to me they've fulfilled their obligation. I told Brian, “I want you to pull up my contract now. I want to see in that contract where it states that as long as you’ve given me a number, that’s where it stops for you.” He goes, “Well, we really want to help you.” I said, “Here’s the deal. I pay you every month. I don’t say to you when something happens, 'Well, I don’t pay you and then I call you when something happens and say I really wanted to pay you.’”
So Brian did not stop. He was unbelievable. He called plumbers and sent emails, until finally, a plumber responded back. They came out that day at about 1 o’ clock in the morning. Brian took it upon himself to walk me through how to turn my water off when no one else there cared. He did not rest until he got somebody out to my house. We would have been in five feet of water if it wasn’t for him. I could’ve cancelled my contract with Landmark immediately after this drama, but I didn’t because of Brian.
The tech that arrived was extremely personable and immediately informative. After he checked the problem out, he explained to me what had happened and told me not to worry. He walked me through the process, did a bypass so that we would have water, and stayed there until the entire thing was drained. He was very good. He was also very apologetic because I ripped into him as it was his company that was not answering originally.
That was the first and only time I’ve ever had a problem with Landmark. Everything else went smoothly. There’s been only one time when I called and they said they didn’t cover something--like a vent I have where no air came out. But they’ll cover everything like AC and heating. Now they just need to have meetings on how to be more compassionate to the customers and expand on what they cover. But overall, Landmark is very good at what they do. They’re very pleasant and efficient. I like them, would definitely renew with them, and refer them to friends.
Wow! I am so sorry to hear about your initial experience with your water heater repair. I can completely understand the frustration. I want to assure you that your feedback is not taken lightly and will be shared with the appropriate departments. I am so glad to hear that Brian was able to help solve the problem.

I purchased my home in May of 2015 and have extended my home warranty even after the initial year. I have 2 units in my house, one downstairs and one upstairs. My AC unit in the attic started leaking through the ceiling and I felt the downstairs unit was not cooling properly. So on October 19, I called Landmark to come take a look at both units. They sent a repairman who reported that he couldn't possibly do anything to repair it, and that it needed to be replaced.
On October 25, Landmark sent their denial email stating "The evaporator coil was installed slanted, which is not how it should have been installed, so the water is not draining properly, water is going into secondary emergency drain pan, drain pan is rusted out. There was an attempted repair to reroute the water from the emergency drain pan because it had been rusted. They cut the primary plumbing, attached a pump, and attached to that a drain line to send the water somewhere else. This repair would not have been done by a licensed HVAC technician and would have been seen by visual inspection when home inspection was done. Because the failure above was caused by improper install and attempted repair, Landmark will not be able to provide coverage at this point in time"
I quickly responded the same day to ask for photos as evidence to show what was "improper stall" and asked for more details on which unit was being referred. I did not receive a response. I called again 6 days later, on October 31, and was told by the representative they will send an email to the claims manager in charge of my case. No response. On November 13, I emailed the same claims manager and CC'd customercare@landmarkhw.com explaining what I need and that I am trying to dispute their denial. Again, no answer.
I decided to email customer care (same email I just mentioned) from a different email address asking about a new policy. Amazingly, I received a response the very next day. I have been very patient with waiting for a response while reaching out to your company multiple times, via email and phone calls. I am asking once again that Landmark contact me with my request for more detailed information instead of a few vague reasons that I was given without proper evidence.
I apologize that this service request did not meet your expectations. We always follow the warranty contract so we may be equitable to every valued homeowner. I want to assure you that the denial was reviewed by several managers.
I would like to clarify the stipulations of the warranty, and why the repair was not covered.
Per the warranty:
A. SERVICE OVERVIEW
#2 - LHW will provide service on listed covered systems or appliances that:
a) are installed and located within the perimeter of the Main Foundation and Garage (attached or detached). Additional living space in garages or separate from main home are not covered unless additional Option chosen. Systems or appliances located on the exterior or the outside of the home (including porch and patio) are not covered (with exception of items marked with an “*”). Any additional detached structures are not covered unless specified as an Option.
b) were properly installed and in good and safe working order on the Effective Date of this Contract.
c) have become inoperable due to normal usage after the Effective Date of this Contract.
d) are reported during the term of this Contract.
#3 - This Contract does not cover defects known prior to the Effective Date of coverage. Known defects are excluded from coverage until proof of repair(s) is received by us. We provide coverage for unknown conditions if the condition would not have been detectable by the Buyer, Seller, or Agent through visual inspection and simple mechanical test. For example, a simple test would be visual inspection of a heat exchanger for cracks or a carbon monoxide test.
D. THIS CONTRACT DOES NOT COVER:#1 - Repairs or replacement required as a result of Fire, Freeze, Flood or other Acts of God, Accidents, Vandalism, Improper Installation, Cosmetic Defects, Design Flaws, Manufacturers’ Defects, Structural Defects, Power Failure, Shortage, Surge or Overload, and Inadequate Capacity.
#2 - Failure to Clean or Maintain, Improper Previous or Attempted Repair, Routine Maintenance, Odors, Noises, Damage due to Pests or Pets, Neglect, Misuse, Abuse, Missing Parts, or Adjustments.
#5 - You are responsible for providing Maintenance and cleaning on covered items as specified by the manufacturer to ensure continued coverage on such items. For Example: heating and air conditioning systems require periodic cleaning and/or replacement filters and cleaning of evaporator and condensercoils.
I do understand your frustration with this issue. For several reasons, Landmark denied you claim as I noted above. I will attach pictures to support this denial. If you would like to submit your home inspection report, we can review the relevant section.
I am sorry that I could not provide a better resolution to your complaint.

I chose Landmark as my home warranty provider as part of the closing process on my new house. I have completed my first claim with them and am beyond happy. I submitted the claim on a Sunday afternoon and received a response within 30 minutes (this was not marked as an emergency claim) with the next steps in the process, the repairman's contact information, and the service fee amount. I set up the appointment on Monday for service on Tuesday. The service company was very easy to work with, timely, and friendly. I couldn't be more happy with Landmark!

We got a house in March and we signed up for a year-long warranty. Our real estate agent takes care of the first year and she gave us a couple of options. We looked at several and picked Landmark. It covered everything and cost-wise, it was somewhere in the middle and was very reasonable for first-time buyers. It was very easy filing a claim and everything was online. We had plumbing problems and after we submitted the claim, we got a call immediately from the plumber. The people were class acts, were easy to work with and they fixed everything we needed quickly. Based on that experience, we’ll look at renewing Landmark year to year.
It's great to hear about you positive experience with Landmark and the contractor. Thank you for taking a minute to share online.

Our realtor was the one that got us set up with Landmark and it was all taken care of when we purchased the house. And so far, I've done two different claims with them. The first time was for a minor issue and it wasn't a big deal. The second time, we have a couple issues with miscommunication between what Landmark had on file and what we actually had going on.
When our dishwasher broke, we called in and had the appliance guy come out. We paid him then he came back and said that our dishwasher's whole computer panel needed to be replaced. We then went about the process of finding out what we had to do. We got offered 370 bucks, less than half of what our dishwasher cost to get, so it ended up being a big pain in the butt. They wanted to give us a dishwasher that wasn't even remotely close in color and didn't have any of the features that ours had. Then they tried to tell us it wasn't gonna be covered because of the model of our dishwasher.
When we got all of our paperwork upon signing up, we were told that it was all covered 100%. But now we're not even gonna get half the dishwasher's replacement cost and we also had to pay the guy $60 to come out. By the time it was all set and done, I could've bought a new dishwasher. It would cost me $100 more to buy a new dishwasher without paying from the warranty to begin with. Landmark saved me $100, which is nice, but I'm really disappointed with it this time. It's better than not getting any help at all. I think part of the problem was that Landmark didn't realize our dishwasher had all these features to it. I don't know if they just assumed we had a plain dishwasher that didn't have anything but ours is worth $800 dishwasher with all the stuff my wife wanted on it.
When I called to have our AC and heater service however, it was great. They had guys out there and we got the service right away. So Landmark is good when asked for service done on an appliance but not so great when it comes to replacing an appliance. But I do understand that with any insurance company, it'd cost them more money to replace an expensive product and they're trying to make money too.
I am sorry to hear that you did not have a 5 star experience with Landmark. I can understand the frustration on the dishwasher issue. I am sorry the service request did not meet your expectation. We always strive to provide the best possible experience for our valued homeowners. I do appreciate your feedback. Hearing your experience is the greatest catalyst for change here at LHW.

We had a preseason check-up for our furnace and during the process the Tech found a part was failing less than 50% capacity remaining. He advised me to contact Landmark to get auth to replace. When contacted the rep Brandy declined because the part had not completely stopped working, even though it was less than 50 % capacity. I called back and request a supervisor, while on hold for 30 minutes I auth the rep to repair and paid for the service.
When finally getting a supervisor on the phone she agreed that if less than 50% they should replace it under the warranty, and asked to speak with rep. I explained due to long hold time I auth the work he had done it and left due to other scheduled appointments. At this time I wanted them to reimburse for the part and call charge difference between my deductible of 70 and the 135 for the repair and to send me a check for 65 dollars. No, she could not do that since I've already paid. What kind of company is that? Certainly not service coordinated.

When I purchased my house, my real estate agent supplied the home warranty from Landmark at no cost to me. The first year I had the house, I had no claims. So when it came to renewal, everything in the house was covered and then I had to use the home warranty twice this year since I've renewed it. Submission of the claim was just a phone call and it was very easy. Landmark took my information and they contacted a subcontractor in the area to do the work. The subcontractor called me, made an appointment, came out and did the work. In my first experience, I found the problem on a Friday afternoon but couldn't get it fixed till Tuesday. It wasn't the fault of the warranty people - it was just a long holiday weekend. The second time I needed the home warranty, I called that morning, had a service representative came up and repaired the problem that same afternoon.
Landmark is very valuable, responsive, always follows up on email, and makes sure that the subcontractors calls me and set up the appointment. Then, they do a follow up that everything is done and that I am happy with the work. I have a very good experience - the prices are very competitive and the services are excellent.

Landmark Home Warranty was recommended when we bought our house about two years ago, but it was quite difficult to submit a claim to them. Earlier in the year when it was summertime, we tried to get our AC unit fixed and it was recommended by Landmark to get the coils fixed first, which was about a $100, just to find out that the whole unit needed to be replaced. So, the $60 new unit cost is worse than $1,100 coils that didn't do anything for the system. It's been difficult dealing with them. They recommend something that cost us a lot more money, and it's just been problematic.
We're currently going through an issue with our toilet, and had a tech evaluate it a month ago to see exactly what the issue is because the toilet is a lot older than what we were told the house was. The tech told us that it was submitted in 1998, and we thought the house was built in 2007. That was also a problem that I have with the warranty company. It's a lot of pulling teeth to get resolutions in a timely manner. They got it fixed around September 29th. We tried to report it within the 30 days, but we hit the 31st day, so we had to resubmit $60.

Do not use! Landmark did not cover the heater replacement that was outlined and should have been coverable on their contract. The company they used was a long ways away and consequently didn't get around to even taking a look at the heater for a month. We had to live in a cold house (October) for a month for their company to tell us they wouldn't pay to replace it. Now we have to pay around 4k for something Landmark should have covered.

That's it. $60 no matter how long or how many visits it takes to correct the problem.

We have opened several tickets with this company since purchasing our home in Dec 2015. Plumbing, cooktop, fridge, swamp cooler, furnace tune-up and water heater. Every single time our experience with them has been a hassle and a headache. Last week we called for a pre-season tune up. We got the technician scheduled and the next day asked if we could also have them check on the water heater (of course paying the add'l $60 "because it's a separate system") because it was doing this popcorn popping sound. So we opened the 2nd ticket to have them service the water heater also. The technician comes out, checks and cleans the furnace and finds that the control board needs to be replaced. Then looks at the water heater, tells us it's over 13 years old, they are not built to run longer than 10 years, that it's not pressurized correctly, it's a huge safety hazard that could explode and should be replaced ASAP.
Well surprise, surprise... it's going to cost us another $60 to repair the furnace, the technician has the part in stock but Landmark said "No, we can order it cheaper someplace else, you'll have to wait" and they denied our claim for the water heater because "it still functions, it still heats the water". Are you kidding me? In one day I'm going to be out $180 and my children sleep in the room above a ticking time bomb!! When did a family's safety get put below a company's balance sheet?!! Don't buy a warranty from this company, don't sell a warranty from this company, don't do business with this company!!!

BUYERS BEWARE! I am a Realtor and have been using American home Shield warranty for all of my clients since before I can remember. I wanted to give Landmark a try but didn't want to referred a company that I have never used before. I waited until I purchased my own home to try a new home warranty company out. Three days after I purchased my home and went with Landmark, my A/C motor completely broke. My air condition shut down!! The temperature outside was pushing 104.
I try to get in contact with Landmark for hours upon hours (emailed, called and left voicemails for the hotline number and the local sales rep here in Fort Worth TX. Texts as well) with no luck. I had no choice but to hire a air condition company to come out and replace my motor. I paid $500 for a new motor and was never reimbursed as PROMISED by Landmark. They refused to refund me. I went back-and-forth with landmark for 3.5-4 months with no resolution. I would highly recommend going with another home warranty company that will actually do their job, take care of you and your new home that you purchased. I'm glad I tried them out before referring them to any of my clients.

I will just copy and paste what I sent to the company as my complaint. In short, they brought a contractor out to look at a problem on the fridge from an issue they later tell us is not covered when we told them on the phone the exact issue with the fridge. They then send us an approval email to send someone out to do the work. They do not answer the voicemails and dodge our calls until they know we are not giving up, then finally tell us the work is not approved. When we try to cancel, they want to charge us a cancellation fee (after only two weeks of coverage), as well as charge us for two months of service (again, after only two weeks of coverage). Please use Old Home Republic. They were a great company to work with. We bought this coverage because it had an Advantage Plan to cover Refrigerators. At least, we were told it did...
Why oh why did I leave Old Home Republic. What a surprise, so much more to cancel than should even be considered reasonable. First off, 2 months of coverage used? My service started when I moved in to the house. I haven't even been here for a month. Is this just a math error, or is Landmark trying to grab even more money from me? I have already given up enough money to have a home warranty program, I shouldn't have to give more money back just to leave a company that refuses to do the work THEY HAVE BEEN PAID TO DO.
Your company sent out a contractor for a service fee we paid to come fix our fridge. When we called it in, we clearly stated we needed to have the fridge repaired because the ice maker was leaking from the water line. So of course your company says, "No problem, we will gladly take your money and send someone out." The service technician comes out, clearly finds the issue, lets us know it is covered by the home warranty program, then leaves. We then get an APPROVAL TO DO THE WORK on the fridge from your company (Which I still have), and do not hear back from your company until we have to call at least 3 times through 4 days.
Finally after hearing back, your company decides they don't want to do the work anymore. Your company wants to tell us water lines are not a part of the program and are not covered. If we told you this was the issue in the first place, WHY WOULD YOU STEAL OUR MONEY AND SEND SOMEONE OUT HERE? In the Landmark Home Warranty Contract, read Section 2, then read Section 3. This was all done and deemed successful. Even improper repairs are supposedly covered in our plan, as we paid extra for the Advantage Plan. I will be sending the Better Business Bureau the copy of the Approval that your company so easily decided to ignore and not want to do.
I apologize for your frustrating claim experience. I understand that it is upsetting to find out something is not covered under your warranty. It is always frustrating to have expenses that you did not plan for. I apologize that Landmark has not met your expectation of service on this claim.

My realtor purchased a home warranty for me when I recently purchased a home. The air conditioner fan motor went out during record temperatures in Southern AZ. They gave me the name of a company that could come out and look at the problem... The problem was the company couldn't come out for 3 WEEKS!!! With daily temperatures above 110 DEGREES. Unacceptable!!!
Then the REFRIGERATOR STOPPED WORKING PROPERLY. HAD TO TURN THE TEMP CONTROL TO THE MAX COOLING AND IT STILL WASN'% keeping food COLD. Then it started leaking water from inside the unit. I called them and once again NO REPAIRMAN FOR OVER 2 WEEKS!! When he finally came out said there were way TOO MANY PROBLEMS WITH THE REFRIGERATOR TO FIX!! He called Landmark and told them exactly that. I got a call an hour later saying that my refrigerator was not covered under my policy and it was supposed to be under the policy statement. This company is terrible. You sit on hold on the phone for hours trying to get a hold of someone. When you do they don't speak proper English.

I opened a claim due to a leaking under my sink every time I turn on the food disposal. The contractor came here and in 2 minutes said the seal was broke, charged me $60 fee and promised to come back after with the parts. Later the same day Landmark denied my claim saying it was caused by improper use. I immediately talked with the contractor and he told he NEVER told them it was improper use. He confirmed there is NO way to say it was improper use or not. Then I am assuming Landmark made that up just not to cover the fixing. I am out of $60 and still have the leaking.
This was not the first time they deny a claim. They will EVER find a reason to not cover the service! If you are considering buy their warranty, think again! You will NOT save any money because every time you open claim you will be out of $60 and most likely your claim will be denied. I opened a claim with BBB (Better Business Bureau) against them because I feel like this business is a scam. Not to mention every time you need to call them be prepared to stay in line for 30-40 minutes.
I am so sorry to hear that Landmark has not met your expectation of service. I see that our Claims Department has been reviewing the denial on your unit.

I have had a great experience with Landmark Home Warranty. We have purchased our home in April and chose Landmark. We live out in the country and the things they had to offer were exactly what we needed. We have used Landmark for pest control, refrigerator repairs and garbage disposal replacement. Seems to be because of how far out we live (middle of nowhere) they have a difficult time finding contractors who are willing to come and service us. But they find someone quickly and they have been the nicest, going above and beyond, contractors I have ever experienced.
We had a little hiccup one day with a contractor (some miscommunication between contractor and Landmark) and Landmark was on it to make sure everything was corrected and that we were taken care of. I have been very thankful for our home warranty and the experience we have had with Landmark will make me want to continue my service with them for several more years to come!

After filing a claim because our ceiling fan/light fixture spontaneously fell from the ceiling. Landmark sent out a contractor (I paid the service fee). They now refuse to replace the ceiling fan/light fixture with one in accordance with the contract which states it will be comparable in features, capacity and efficiency. The exact one is avail at Home Depot with the extension pole avail also. They want to replace it with a fan of different color WITHOUT lights or give us $120 that should cover a fan/light and the labor. The fan/light and extension pole totals $263.98, and then I would be responsible for labor. Then they offered we could use their contractor and us pay for a "2nd man" since it will be a 2 person job - at a rate of $125/hour.
This is also not in accordance with the contract as it does not state we will be partially responsible for labor - just the 1 time service fee per claim, which we have paid. I have called numerous times, emailed them pictures of our fan/light and pole, and pictures of the exact replacement at Home Depot, they refuse to pay the correct amount for replacement and simply provide the required labor (as outlined in the contract). I am VERY dissatisfied with them and will tell everyone I know NOT to buy a warranty from Landmark!

Horrible customer service, lack of concern for a working family, waste of time and lack of acknowledging what is actually listed in the contract! We renewed our contract in June 2016 as we were just about to come up on our first year of being in the home. The AC was inspected July 2015 and serviced before closing on the house. We renewed our contract in hopes that when a big unknown fix arose, we could handle it by making sure we were covered. WRONG! First problem appliance (premium package purchased) and here is what happened.
Beginning August 16th, we called Landmark to submit a claim for our A/C unit that was freezing over on the outside unit. Each time the unit froze (outside upstairs unit covered in layers of ice, fan still running), it would continue to run blowing hot air throughout the house, running up my electric bill, and causing my home to be 90+degrees inside with 110 outside in Texas heat. After 5 different visits from the AC Company, 2 recalled reports, and on the 5th time being passed a bill for $625 to get the unit fixed, my patience is thin. Below is what happened.
8/16/2016 - Initial claim submitted to Landmark for freezing AC Unit (left outside unit). 8/19/2016 - Optimum Air scheduled to come diagnose issue. Tech found that it was the 2nd unit that was the issue and compressor was bad causing the unit that was freezing to overwork thus causing ice and not working. Requested new AC compressor from Landmark Warranty Company.
8/22/2016 - Landmark approve the parts and ordered. Scheduled follow-up appointment to install for August 24 for a window between 12pm-4pm. 8/24 - Day of install. Took day off work to ensure I would be home for technician to arrive in designated window of time (missing a full day of work). No tech call or appearance by 4:30PM.
Called Optimum Air (contractor given by Landmark). Owner of Optimum who said the tech was finishing the job before me and would be to my house shortly. 6:00PM still no tech. Called Landmark to see if they could get in touch with their contractor or give me to someone else absolutely no help and told me to be patient. 7:00 PM tech calls to tell me he is finishing the house before me and is close in my area and will be there shortly. 7:50 PM tech calls to tell me he got lost and went to the wrong place and will be there shortly. Tech arrives are 8:30 PM. Let me remind you my window of appointment was 12 PM-4 PM. Tech was at my home until after 11:00 PM due to issues and a leaking hose and left in the middle to get food. Install complete at 11 PM (work order to prove).
8/29/2016 - A/C completely frozen again. Recalled work order as incomplete. 9/7/2016 - Optimum air scheduled to come out again to diagnosis the issue. Finds coolant levels right at the mark and adjusts to fix it. 9/18/2016 - A/C completely frozen. Recalled again. 9/20/2016- Appointment scheduled between 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM. Optimum air arrives at 7:50 PM to find that my Evaporator Coils are bad in the upstairs inside unit. Says he will submit to warranty and they should call me.
After a month of a nonworking A/C in Texas heat, 4 days of missed work due to numerous appointments with Landmark contractor I receive an email from Landmark Kyla **, a claims manager, who states the following are mods not covered under warranty to repair the issues and I will need to pay out of pocket $625 to get the ORIGINAL issue fixed telling me to approve to move forward. The following is what the email lists are not covered:
Plenum mod - $150, Copper Mod - $150, Drain Mod- $75, Drain Pan - $125, Float Switch - $75, Pipe Installation - $50, Total - $625. I have read over my contract over and over and nowhere does it list these items an exclusion except the drain pan. All other items are nowhere to be found in the contract as homeowners expense or maintenance. Following the email, I called the company to get a better explanation. I asked to speak to a manager. Immediately was placed on hold for 10 minutes while Stephanie came on the line to tell me the manager was busy. I then told her to still get someone.
22 minutes into the call I get someone who doesn't introduce themselves, tell me who they were, doesn't ask my concerns, doesn't inquire or try to resolved my frustration. I received silence and a uh yes. Hi... How unprofessional! Jesse (the manager I had to squeeze a name out of) began to explain that these are modifications that my contract doesn't cover and at a homeowners expense for safety, etc.
I asked where they are listed. He couldn't tell me. Just that they have to stick to the binding agreement in the contract and either I could pay the $625 and get the unit fixed in hopes that this actually will be the final appointment and additional wasted day or I just wasted the last month, 4 days of work I had to take off to accommodate these appointments and live with a broken unit. He couldn't have cared less about my experience, or validate the reasons why they aren't covered - the pieces needed to replace the diagnosed repair needed that is listed clear as day in the contract as covered.
If you want a timely, accurate, contract abiding, customer focused company DO NOT GO WITH Landmark Home Warranty. I will be sure to pass this along to every new homeowner I come across and the realtor that assured us of how a great a company they were to either fix it or replace it. One giant lie and a very disappointed customer.

My experience with this company is described below in this word-for-word copy of what I wrote to Landmark Home Warranty in their internal survey to me. That was almost 3 weeks ago (9/1/16), and I have heard absolutely nothing from them about it, which indicates what the company truly stands for. Sadly, I would never recommend this company to anyone.
"This has been an absolutely horrible experience that is not at all in line with what Landmark advertises. We've made 1 claim so far, and after this experience I would never refer Landmark to anyone. LHW answers the phone by asking what they can do to make your day better and the website advertises how much value there is in a Landmark Home Warranty. But when it comes down to it, the company only cares about getting your business and then minimizing their own spend.
Here's the story that has formed my opinion of the company. Shortly after our home warranty became active, we had a power outage in our home. We called Rocky Mountain Power, who came out and removed the meter on the exterior panel, then told us that the electrical panel with the meter on it needed to be replaced. After calling Landmark and being told no one would be out to look at it for 4 days, and after several subsequent hours on the phone, the preferred service company of choice did eventually come out the next day. They diagnosed the problem and were told by LHW that LHW would not cover the panel replacement because "we had one of these yesterday, and we talked about it, so I know the meter is not covered" (yes, I actually heard that with my own ears).
After speaking myself with the person administering the claim, I received no legitimate justification as to why the repair is not covered. Given the temperatures in the house (over 100 degrees inside, as this was the last week of July) and the fact that we had our 7-month old baby and house guests that had already gone through one 100+ degree night without AC, I opted to have the service company do the work. I have since spent the last month working with LHW, either directly or through the realtor who referred us to LHW, trying to get the payment of the contractor resolved. LHW has completely lost my confidence through this experience. I have been told that "the meter is not covered," but no one at LHW has shown me anything in the policy that is provided when the warranty is purchased that justifies this statement.
The policy Contract (UT-ID-OR-RE-3.16) states the following under ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: "COVERED: Wiring; panels and subpanels*; plugs; switches and fuses; junction boxes; circuit breakers; conduit; exhaust fans; ceiling fans. EXCLUSIONS: Light fixtures, wireless remotes, ballasts, telephone wiring; heat lamps, intercoms, alarms, electronic or computerized energy management or lighting and appliance management systems, doorbell and related wiring chimes; saunas or steam rooms, smoke detectors"
Clearly, panels are covered. Nowhere in this description of coverage or exclusions (or the asterisk on sub-panels) does it state the my exterior electrical panel is not covered simply because it has the meter on it. The panel itself was not installed by Rocky Mountain Power - it was installed by the home builder as a part of the home. The only thing Rocky Mountain does is install a meter on the panel. I did not have the meter replaced - I had the panel replaced.
I was recently sent an e-mail from LHW "reminding" me that, per the same contract in the Service Overview section, anything outside the perimeter of the main foundation is not covered. If this is the reason my claim has been denied, this is nothing but a shameless attempt to avoid expense. The panel is attached right to the outside of my home at the time of construction and is part of the house, just like my window frames, siding, eaves, or bay windows, all of which technically extend out past the foundation of the home. Surely LHW wouldn't exclude coverage of those items, and if not, my panel should be included in the coverage under these criteria.
I have worked with Celeste, Ada, and Sophia, among others, and I know my realtor has contacted several managers as well with the same answer. Through my realtor I have learned that LHW believes we tampered with the panel, and this may be why the claim is being denied. I haven't ever tampered with the panel or the meter. I'm not an electrician, and I'm not stupid - I would never open up the main panel or remove the meter myself. If this is the reason the claim is being denied, I am even more disappointed in LHW than ever for punishing me for something I didn't do, and for denying the claim without justification.
I work in real estate and have the potential to steer customers towards or away from LHW. Unless someone at LHW who reads this survey actually cares about doing the right thing, believes what the company purports to stand for, and decides to call me, come look at my house, and take appropriate action, I will ensure that no one I work with will ever give business to LHW. Additionally, I'll be posting this exact survey response to consumeraffairs.com and BBB.org. I'm extremely disappointed in my purchase and this experience. I'm wishing someone there believed in doing the right thing and delivering on what is advertised." So there you have it. Take it from me - this company is not about providing you with a warranty.
I apologize for your frustrating claim experience. I understand that it is upsetting to find out something is not covered under your warranty. It is always frustrating to have expenses that you did not plan for. I apologize that Landmark has not met your expectation of service on this claim. We honestly do our best to provide every valued homeowner with a positive claim experience in a timely manner.

I have been pleased with my home warranty purchased as a 1st time home owner with existing appliances in the sale. Landmark has been good about most everything. There was one claim that was denied because of "wear and tear" but all others have been serviced. I would recommend them.

On 6/10/16 I placed a claim for the water heater as my home no longer had hot water. When the claim representative notified me that MBP Heating was the contractor I immediately requested a new contractor because I had a bad experience with this company before. The claims representative stated that she would have to submit a request to get contractor switched. On 6/12/16 I received a call from MBP Heating advising me that they would servicing my repair concern. So I called Landmark HW and the claims representative advised me that they have to choose the contractor that appears on the screen. So I made the appointment with MBP Heating to come to my home on 6/13/16. The arrival window was 12PM-4PM. The technician arrived late at 4:45PM. The technician made a diagnosis that my water heater needed to be replaced. The technician stated he would notify Landmark Home warranty so they could order a replacement.
On 6/14/16, Landmark Home Warranty and I called MBP Heating to follow up on the technician's diagnosis and we were told by the receptionist that the diagnosis would be sent by close of business. Unfortunately, for me the diagnosis was not sent. On 6/15/16, Landmark Home Warranty and I called MBP Heating three times to follow up on the technician's diagnosis and we were told by the receptionist that MBP was waiting for the technician to send the diagnosis in. The receptionist also stated that the diagnosis would be sent by close of business. Unfortunately, for me the diagnosis was not sent. On 6/15/16 at 5:54PM I called the technician directly on his cell and he advised me that he was just the technician and that he submitted the paperwork to his boss on 6/13/16. He stated that he was not sure why the diagnosis had not been sent.
So as of 6/15/16 my family and I still have no HOT water and I now have to submit a new claim and wait until 6/19/16 for another vendor to come and diagnose the problem. This has been the WORSE experience ever. I thought American Home Shield was bad but even their service wasn't this awful. At this point I don't see the value in having a Home Warranty service if this is what I have to go through. Home Depot has water heaters on sale and for the 10+ phone calls I had to make to get NO RESULTS I would have rather bought my own water heater so I could relax and take a bath in my own home after a hard day at work. I am very disappointed with the service by Landmark and the MBP Heating!

I have been using Landmark for approximately 3 months and have filed 2 claims. The first experience was for a tankless hot water heater that is going out. They sent out plumbers several times, none of whom had exactly zero experience working on a system like ours (one guy actually asked me if I had the manual). Finally, they decided that they need to flush the system. This of course was an expensive, non-covered, and potentially harmful diagnosis (validated by two other experts I hired) and was totally unrelated to the problem and the error code that was being presented. It felt like I had a flat tire and they were telling me I need to spend $250 to clean out my glove box before they would provide additional assistance. This hot water heater issue is still not resolved, my children still have to take cold showers and Landmark takes a long time to respond to any inquiry unless it is to deny a claim. Which brings me to my second issue with them.
The booster pump on my pool is going out. I paid extra to ensure that I had warranty coverage for my pool equipment on my policy... Their website says pool pump is covered, it even says pool sweeper pump is covered. When they denied my claim they said only the main pump is covered. So I'm left with a ton of expensive repairs that they refuse to cover and every time they sent out an incompetent repair person I had to pay them $70. So now I feel like I'm throwing good money after bad even trying to use Landmark at all. Their service, in my opinion, is to take people's money and work really hard to ensure that they never have to pay for any claims. I would love for someone at Landmark to call me and make this right, but I'm not holding my breath. And until that happens, I wish I could give them zero stars.

Landmark Home Warranty was our realtor's recommendation and it came purchased through our mortgage. The technician we had for our air conditioner was superb. He came sooner than I thought, and he did a very good job. We didn't even have to wait a week, which was amazing.

I own my home and my kids own their homes too and I have a few rental properties also. When we purchased one of our properties over 2 years ago, we purchased a home warranty from Landmark Home Warranty company. I never had any claims in the 2 years I was with this company but a few months before it was time to renew the policy the A/C unit stopped working while I was out of town and my daughter called to let me know. I told her to call someone to fix it and keep the receipt and I will send it to the warranty company.
When I called the company they said that they will not reimburse me because they wanted to send somebody of their choice to work on the A/C. But that was not what I was told when I purchased the warranty. I was going to put all our houses including the rentals under one warranty company but with this bad experience and lies from landmark company, not only I will not switch to them, I will let all my friends know about this dishonest company. This company in my opinion is running by bunch of dishonest and liars and crook people. Everybody watch out for this very dishonest company.
I am very sorry to hear of your frustration with Landmark. We always seek to provide a positive claim experience in a timely manner.

Our A/C condenser and coil failed, so we called Landmark Home Warranty. They covered the claim and sent out a contract company they chose to do the work. We discussed the repairs and the out of pocket cost and agreed to the terms. We thought we had found a trustable contractor thanks to Landmark Home Warranty. Coming up on winter we had our annual furnace inspection through the same contractor. We receive a call from Landmark Home Warranty that the contractor submitted pictures off of the internet they found and not actual photos of our furnace stating the furnace had cracks in it. Landmark Home Warranty removed the contractor and sent me a new one to deal with our furnace.
Come to find out the furnace was cracked and we needed a new one, and the second contractor Landmark Home Warranty sent did the installation. 8 months later we are coming to the end of summer and in our kitchen we notice a water leak in the kitchen ceiling where there are no pipes. Looking into the ceiling, you could see water draining out of the A/C duct work. We called Landmark Home Warranty to submit a claim and ask for help.
Landmark Home Warranty sends out our 3rd A/C contractor. He goes into the attic and immediately starts documenting the issues: The A/C unit has no transition from the fan to the coil (1st contractor). The main drain line is clogged after 8 months and the condensation is flowing down the A/C duct, and leaking out into my kitchen ceiling. (1st contractor). There is no second drain line (I'm lucky for this) and the drain pan for the coil is too small for the coil. If it had a second drain line it would have just dumped into my upstairs ceiling (1st contractor). On the furnace we had replaced there are exposed electrical wire, a fire hazard as stated by the Landmark Home Warranty claims rep (2nd contractor).
We have spent a week trying to get Landmark Home Warranty to provide us a solution. We call and get first level support and ask to speak to a manager. They transfer us to a team rep and promise calls back that day that never come. Continuously call and ask to speak with a manager and none are available. Begging the question are they that busy because of the lack of service Landmark Home Warranty provides?
I called Landmark Home Warranty today, after almost 2 weeks, and they decided to send out the first contractor that did the improper installation, and the one they removed because of using fraudulent photos from the internet on a claim. When asked about the faulty wiring on the furnace from the 2nd contractor they had not decided what to do on the potential fire hazard.
I know sometimes there are issues with any work that is being done. Landmark Home Warranty handle several home repairs that made me believe they were someone my family and I could trust. Then the one time we really needed them, Landmark Home Warranty has shown a complete lack of care or concern in handling their customers. When speaking with them they say it is not Landmark Home Warranty's fault, it is the contractors that they sent out.
They are sending out the first contractor that did the improper installation and was removed for sending fraudulent photographs. When Landmark Home Warranty was asked how I was supposed to trust the contractor that was removed by them, they replied that they had spoken with the contractor and they trust them now. Updates to follow.

We purchased a warranty almost 1 year ago. We have had a couple of items that needed to be repaired. We had a bathtub that leaked, and a hot tub that leaked. In both cases the company sent out a 'technician' that was armed with a camera instead of tools. The 'technician' was there to take pictures in order to prove that Landmark Home Warranty should not have to fix the leaks. In the entire year, nothing has been fixed, although we have put a lot of time and energy into getting the items fixed by Landmark Home Warranty. I have been receiving emails to encourage me to sign up for another year of warranty. They have put more effort into trying to weasel another year of warranty money out of me than they ever put into fixing anything that was broken. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY.

When my son bought his first house, my realtor suggested Landmark - they offered more options. Originally, I haven't had any problems, but lately, some of their service contractors are not well qualified. In particular, one of their air conditioning people that came out did poor service and I had to keep calling them back and then they would lie about doing things. I said, "Excuse me, did you not put this on the furnace unit?" One of their air conditioning people said that they did. And, they cracked my drain pan and denied it. There was nothing wrong until a contractor came in and opened up the unit to fix another problem. And then immediately, after they closed that up, I feel air coming out of the unit and it was dripping water.
I contacted Landmark and said that I want somebody else sent back out here. They will not take care of it. They said they don't do that and I have to go through this company and have them come out and fix it. I said my contract is with Landmark and they sent somebody out that did this work. They said, "Well, their insurance will pay for it." I said I don't want them coming out and touching anything in my house anymore. What I'm very frustrated about is that somebody that they sent out to my home to make a repair damaged something, but Landmark is not standing behind it. It's been a nightmare.
But Landmark did send somebody else out and he was wonderful. However, I paid a new fee rather than a recall. He said what the previous service people did and how poor the workmanship was. And without us letting him know what transpired, he could tell that they cracked the drain pipe. He said, "We'll see if Landmark will take care of it." In which Landmark said, "No."

So far, our experience when submitting a claim with Landmark has been tremendous. We once took advantage of their re-key service and that went very well. And then we had them come out to take care of an air conditioning issue, and that went very well, too. I just called them and told them what the problem was. They made sure it was covered, and then they told me who was gonna call me to schedule the appointment. They tried to schedule it first but they couldn't reach them. So they told me exactly who was gonna be calling me instead and they sent me the contact information in case the contractors did not.

My service with this company has been so atrocious that I cannot believe they get good ratings from anyone.

I have gotten the runaround beyond all belief... no fewer than 5 people have been involved in a claim, and I need to start at 0 with each of them. They let a lot of time pass between communications, then threaten to close the claim if you do not respond on their timetable.
Indeed, the only person... the only one at Landmark who EVER got back to me in a timely manner was a salesman who was unfortunate enough to ask me to continue my service in the middle of a claim that Landmark never had any intention of making right.

When I moved into my home, my dishwasher would start and run. It no longer starts and runs, yet Landmark refuses to repair it. To add insult to injury, I have been charged a non-refundable $70 for a diagnosis that would lead to a denial of the claim. Their reasoning: the previous homeowner had issues with the dishwasher, which were revealed AFTER the purchase of the home, which were easily resolved by unplugging the unit and plugging it back in -- a workaround that was no longer effective at the time I filed the claim.
In short, Landmark has a very narrowly focused definition of problems with which they look for any and every reason to deny a claim. That's good for their pocketbooks, but not so good for yours. At the very least, a simple, "Yes, we realize that our denial is unreasonable and misses the big picture, but we're a tunnel-vision kind of company, so we apologize" would have been nice. Look elsewhere for coverage. You can do better.
I can see that you are clearly frustrated with your claim experience. I am sorry that we were not able to complete your service. I think I would be frustrated with us too.

I've had two experiences with Landmark. I had one guy fix a cooktop in the kitchen and he never called back. I kept calling him but his mailbox was full and it couldn't take any more messages. So, I had to call Landmark and tell them about that company. A couple of days later, the service guy called me back. Then, I had a plumbing company come recently, and the plumber did the work, but I knew what he did wouldn't last. It was cheaper for the company to repair it the way he did but it didn't work and it leaked. So I had to call the company back and told them to put in new parts. The plumber came back quickly and fixed it the next day. He was just probably following company policy, and even said that he should've replaced it the first time. So, that wasn't Landmark's fault.
Additionally, I submit my claims by email because it gets attention ten times quicker than calling in a claim. I email them in the morning and then I have a service contractor assigned to me by the end of the day. If I call in, it can take two to three days to get a service contractor assigned and he has to call me back. All in all, I'm very happy with my experience with Landmark.

We used other providers in the past and as a realtor, my husband would purchase home warranties for his clients. We were always disappointed because our clients would call and say their dishwasher or washing machine broke and their warranty wouldn't fix it. So, we stopped giving them out. We gave a credit to the homeowner instead rather than pay for a home warranty. That went on a few years and then my husband came home with Landmark and I said we should try it. We'd buy if it worked out and we wouldn't if it didn't, but we've been pleasantly surprised.
We can submit claims online and then we get notifications from Landmark. We'd be sure to get a call from the contractor within 24 hours. We had a recent claim for the sink disposal system that jammed up. I called and I figured we'd have to buy the unit and we’d have to pay for the service call. It was the $60 service call, and they came in, boom, changed it. The guy was so clean and quick. He even raised the the drain line for my dishwasher. He went above and beyond so we're very happy. Then one of our clients who we purchased for also had a small claim and the contractors came right out, fixed it, boom, done. So we are now gonna start buying home warranties again for clients. It's been a great, easy-from-start-to-finish experience.

I have been a Landmark Home Warranty customer for nearly three years and have had satisfactory experiences when engaging them to request repairs to my rental property. Recently, the air conditioner stopped working and my tenants contacted Landmark to provide assistance. The company that was dispatched delayed their response for three days and only provided a phone number and email address as contact information. The tenants called the number that went directly to voicemail with a full inbox and the email address did not provoke any response by the company. After contacting Landmark, which is nearly impossible by the amount of hold time that is required to speak with someone, I was assured that the company dispatched would take care of the issue.
The company dispatched identified the issue as a defective blower and said a part would have to be ordered leaving the tenants with more time without AC in South Texas with 100+ degree heat. The company never provided a timeline or came back to resolve the issue. One week later the tenants threatened to leave after having to stay in a hotel during this whole time. Running the risk of losing the tenant and also having sympathy for their situation, I decided to call a separate repairman who fixed the AC that night. After contacting Landmark about the issue I was assured that they would review and provide a response, even possibly reimburse me for the cost of the AC repair. I have yet to hear anything from the manager I contacted and trying to reach anyone within Landmark has been a challenge.
I was thankful to have the day off from work, but I have now spent it trying to reach out to Landmark who has continuously put me on hold where eventually the call ends. Air Conditioning issues should be the utmost priority for any Home Warranty company and in this case tenants were left to their own resources without a way to contact the service company. I am very displeased by Landmark and I would caution anyone in Texas to use them as their Home Warranty solution. My property manager also stated that it is nearly impossible to contact anyone at Landmark and that they do not have any state representation that could bring up issues to them directly.
I hope that others consider my story when paying for Landmark. The company will gladly take your money but seems unreliable when their services are needed the most. I believe their efforts could be geared towards ensuring customers receive quality service from contractors and following up until the job is completed. I fear that they hire the lowest quality service and expect renters and homeowners will live with the sub-par service that is received because they do not have an option for another company.

We were Landmark Home Warranty customers and our AC broke down in April 2016. When the Landmark hired contractor came to my home, he claimed that the 5 ton unit was an improper install due to the unit not being the correct size for my home. In his report which I've obtained from their customer service, he claimed that my home was only 1300 sq ft, which was completely FALSE. My home was remodeled by the previous owner and now is 1700 sq ft., which according to multiple other licensed contractors I hired for a second opinion was fine for the house. The standard for a hot place like Phoenix (according to every local contractor I've called) is 400 sq feet per ton, and after looking at the layout, number of large windows, insulation, and other factors of my home a 5 ton is easily determined by the contractors as a proper install.
Even after I had the second opinion contractor write a letter stating the above and commented that the machine was properly installed in every way possible. Landmark refused to acknowledge their contractor's mistake and made things very difficult for me because they did not want to honor their contract due to the cost associated.
I can see that your are very frustrated with your claim experience. I apologize that this has been so troubling. We always try to provide a positive claims experience in a timely manner. I researched your complaint and found that a Claims Manager requested a copy of the load test on the unit. We have not received it yet.

I have been a Landmark Home Warranty customer for almost three years now and my experience this month was an eye opener. For one of my rental properties the AC unit stopped working and when I tried to escalate my claim after submitting it online the phones weren't working and it took me over an hour and a half to finally get through. Once I reported the situation I was told the soonest a technician could come out would be 72 hours later. I emphasized that the temperatures were extremely high (in the 90's) and that my tenant was pregnant and had a toddler and they could not stay in the home under those conditions. I said I understood from the contract that the AC unit issue should be an emergency.
I was put on hold then told the best they could do was 48 hours. I asked to speak with a manager and was told the same thing and when I asked about the contract that specifically stated an emergency would be taken care of within 24 hours, I was told that for AC an emergency was considered 100 degrees for 24 hours inside the home!! I responded that my tenants would be DEAD if that was the case and asked exactly where in the contract that was stated. She replied that it was not stated and that was their guidelines. Well no wonder they never printed that! When I asked for assistance to pay for hotel accommodations until it could be repaired since I could not allow my tenants to stay under those conditions I was told I could not. Despite the fact that I have five properties under warranty they could not assist me. Because of this negative experience I am currently seeking alternatives for my properties.

Delay is common in repairing air conditioning in Texas in summer. I opened the ticket on Saturday and then no one called me until I called them back on Monday and left a voicemail. The contractor called me back in the afternoon and told me the earliest time is Friday, which is five days after that so I called and rescheduled. I always get inexperienced technicians and most of them drive an open, bad truck with no uniform on sometimes. There was some Freon-charge equipment and they are expecting re-charge of Freon will take care of this when it’s not the case. That’s the vendors’ processing.
Landmark's plan has changed this year and I realized that only when the serviceman wanted to charge me for Freon re-charge. It surprised me. When I renewed this year’s policy from the main page, it didn’t tell me anything about them covering only $20 per pound of Freon. It only says Freon is covered and so I picked that one. I wish Landmark can bring this one on the front page of the Internet and let user understand in the front that the plan has been changed. Other than that, I have been using them for five years and have no problem.

Landmark Home is a bit cheaper than others and they offer more warranty coverage. Most of the time, claim submission is fine. The reps are very friendly and fast, and everything gets answered. Most of the technicians are well too and they know what to do. However, when it comes to HVACs, some of them lacks knowledge and I have to wait at least four days. I also had three incidents where they were never able to fix it from the first time and they had to bring another company to find out what's wrong with it. But overall, it's great and I recommend it for everyone. They do their job fast and well.

If I could give 0 stars I would. I own a real estate team and property management company in Phoenix, AZ. I have a client who purchased a $975 home warranty from Landmark Home Warranty in January 2016. The first claim they ever filed was in June. It took over 24 hours to even get a call from Landmark. 4 days to schedule with the vendor. After hours on the phone Landmark allowed us to have our own vendor visit the property and gave them a laundry list of items that were needing to be corrected. They then wanted their own person to go back out which was another few days. The vendor Landmark sent to the property told me that he would never make the repairs to his own unit, given the age, as the unit will likely break again very soon and needed to be replaced.
My owner has a tenant living in the property. Leaving the tenant without AC for 4 days before you can even get out there is unacceptable. Having it take another couple of day to get "approval" is unacceptable. A 5-7 business day ordering time when its 120 degrees outside is unacceptable. He elected to replace the unit instead of letting his tenant be without air for 2 weeks. Now I have been fighting with Landmark ever since to do the right thing and reimburse him for this replacement. I have never been more disappointed in an interaction with a home warranty company. I have spent more hours on hold with Landmark and talking to various people up their chain than I have spent on any other claim in 11 years. If you are looking for a company to make good on their policies, resolve claims efficiently and do the right thing, Landmark Home Warranty is not the company.

I've been a Landmark Home Warranty policy holder since May. We filed a claim online for two items, a leaky sink and the water softener, but the contractor said the leaky sink was not covered, which I think it should. The technician contacted me the next day after I filed the claim but he couldn’t come out for a week’s time, which was okay because it wasn’t an emergency. The first time he came out, he looked to see what was wrong, and said he'd get the part and call me. He told me that the sink was not under warranty. He repaired it but not through the warranty, so we paid him almost $200. I called the Landmark rep and he said it should've been covered. He wants me to send him a copy of what I have which I will get to it in the next day or two. They repaired the water softener but did not explain how to it works. We were not home then so we don’t really think it's still working.

I am a property manager, one of the largest in the Southern Utah area. For years I have referred Landmark, not only to new owners with rental properties, but friends and family -- NO MORE. This summer we have learned the hard way, that Landmark does not offer the service my owners and renters deserve. We had a air conditioner go out on a home and was dispatched to Landmark on the 13th of July. Today is the 27th, and we are told the part for the air conditioner will still be another 5-7 day, making it three weeks that my tenants have had no AC with temperatures reaching over 110 degrees. Not acceptable!
Of course when you call they will take no responsibility only stating they have no control how long the contractor takes for parts to be delivered. And every time I asked to speak to a manager, was told they were not available and I would get a call back and never did. I found out from the contractor they hired that the warehouse contractor they ordered a part from was out on vacation for week, causing the delay, and still Landmark will take no responsibility. Landmark just does not care, otherwise they would hire contractors that were reliable and make sure things got done.
This happened on two other properties this summer -- same service. I will continue to let everyone I know not to use them and to cancel with them when the contract expire! I have used Old Republic Home Warranty on one of our rentals where the AC went out and the next day the AC was fixed. I will now refer my owners to them!

Our real estate broker listed Landmark for our home warranty because we were buying a house. I used to be with another company but I gave up on it because it really wasn't paying off and they weren't very reliable. Landmark was a lot different than my previous home warranty provider. They've made me a believer in home warranties again. We just renewed last month our policy with them which we had for about over a year now. The staff were very professional and they follow up. We're in the middle of a pretty big problem right now trying to get an HVAC part for an older unit and it's been a heck of a deal trying to get the darn thing, but Landmark staff have really jumped through hoops trying to make things happen.
The HVAC guy has a much smaller shop than I expected. He's just one man starting out his company. I'm an engineer in a business, so I'm particular about who does our air conditioning work at our house. I grilled him pretty good and he seemed pretty knowledgeable and conscientious. I'm satisfied with all the people who have done home warranty with our house. Although we've been without air conditioning for a week, I'm still happy with their service. No complaints. It would be nice if they could follow up on things like whether something has been delivered or not. I had to spend time trying to trace down where the parts have been delivered. Once I called them, they were happy to get involved and find out where it is and make something happen. But, I had to be one that generally finds out whether something has been delivered or not.

The AC went out one night and Landmark found a company as local as possible to be able to come out look at the unit the next day.. The issue was a contactor that got fried. Easy replacement but the fact the contractors was able to come out that day was extremely great. Good thing as we are in mid summer and 100 degree days right now.

We recently had an infestation of bees and their home warranty doesn't cover any flying insects. They only cover insects like chinch bugs and fire ants - things in the yard - which are easy to get rid of. I can go to the hardware store and buy stuff myself to exterminate these which negates the need for the home warranty. In the end, I hired an exterminator and paid for it myself. But I'm fairly happy with Landmark's service overall.
I am glad to hear that Landmark has been able to conclude service in a positive manner. I would like to know what I can do to provide a more positive service experience for you. Would you please contact me directly and I will look into you claims.

Request repair to cover leaking in showerhead. Landmark sent their contractor to work on the leak, replacing the shower cartridge. But contractor broke the pipe and demanded additional $485 to repair the pipe or else the whole house no water at 7:30pm. Landmark authorized the shower cartridge repair, but when the tech broke the pipe at 7:30pm, we were unable to get authorization as claim manager's hours were from 8am to 6pm. Could not afford whole house no water cooking or flushing toilets. Had to pay out of pocket. Plus l have the NO FAULT policy. Contractor said he had to get paid first before proceed and said I could get reimbursement from Landmark. While contacting the claim manager today, was told that Landmark would not reimburse the $485. Very disappointed with the company.

We purchased our home warranty almost a year ago, now (July 2015). We started having issues with our A/C on April 27, 2016. We opened a ticket using Landmark's website, and it took a few days, but the contractor came out to determine what was wrong. We were told there was a leak. The contractor added some Freon, a "hard start kit", and some "leak fix" on April 30.
On May 5, I had to open another ticket because the unit was not cooling, again. The contractor was re-called; on May 10, I had to ask where we were with the fix. On May 11, the parts to fix the A/C unit was finally approved - the unit needed a new coil. Took several more days (rain was always the stated issue) for the contractor to come back out and install. A few days later, the unit was back to not cooling. May 22, I opened another ticket. The same contractor was re-called. He came out fairly quickly, claimed some opening was stuck closed - so cool air was being created, but not circulated well. Didn't have the parts, so had to come back. That ticket was finally closed on June 13. Remember, we started this in late April.
June 20, the unit stopped cooling, again. At this point, I insisted that the previous contractor not be sent out as I was tired of doing the same thing over and over again but expecting a different result. There's an SLA that these people will call, once assigned, within 4-5 business hours. 2 days, no call. Finally, Landmark calls to let me know that while the contractor is currently over capacity, he could come by that day if I was available. I let them know they could send the person on.
This new contractor advised us, upon reviewing the work the first contractor had completed, the new one said that the original one had not installed the coil correctly. There was some vacuum something that needed to be done that wasn't, and therefore cool air was being created, but not well-circulated. Didn't have the force to move it through the system. He said he would go log the information with Landmark, but they would likely want the original contractor to come back and fix it.
On June 23, I received notice that something from Landmark was approved, and thought oh, miracle upon miracle, the new contractor is coming back to fix it!No. After waiting for 2 weeks and not being contacted by anyone, I went back through my emails and found where Landmark had closed the ticket. I sent a note to Landmark on July 12, asking why nothing was being done - that the (new) contractor had promised to submit the information that the coil needed to be reinstalled.
The next day, Landmark advised me that the (new) contractor had indeed logged a ticket that stated the first contractor had "Improperly Installed" the coil. And, Landmark was "so sorry" as to inform me that "Improperly installed" is not covered under my warranty. But, I could contact the first contractor to see if they'd come out and fix it.
My only response at that point was: YOUR contractor improperly installed the coil and YOU don't COVER THAT? It's not like I had the base package, I have the Deluxe home warranty that's supposed to cover everything but the pool we don't own - appliances, everything. Their contractor installs a coil that a second contractor determined: "there is air in the line, needs pool vacuum recapture and add new Freon and start over, and Landmark says they don't COVER. FIXING. THEIR. MISTAKE.
And all the while, I'm getting marketing emails letting me know my coverage is expiring at the end of July, I should renew now. Really? Give you more money so you can effectively ruin my stuff? This isn't a dishwasher or a minor inconvenience, this is our upstairs A/C unit; where our master bedroom is. I'm in my third trimester of pregnancy. Our baby will sleep upstairs. It's July in TEXAS, and a temperature 95 degrees outside. After I complained, Landmark called the first contractor and they claim they'll come out and fix it. Gee, here's me, holding my breath. (And the definition of "insanity" is...?)

In April 2016, I reported an issue with the home's AC system to Landmark Home Warranty. The repair company took about 3 days to get to the house but they eventually made it. The repair company said that there was a Freon leak and that they needed to call the warranty company to get an additional authorization and that they would be in contact with me. I waited about a week, nothing. I called Landmark and they apologized and said they would look into the situation and call me back. A week passes, nothing.
I call Landmark again. They act like nothing happened, make the same promise to call me back, and then nothing. This goes on and on. Finally, around May or early June (I live in Houston mind you, so, AC is not a luxury), I get the repair company back out there. They show up, look around, and say, "Yeah, we have to fix {whatever}." But they needed additional authorization from the warranty company and they would get back with me. Then Landmark says that they want to pay cash in lieu of the repairs. We turn that offer down and ask them to go ahead with the repairs. It takes an additional two weeks for them to notify me that there would be additional costs for the AC repair, which I consent to.
I even get a request for status on the repairs to the A/C in late June. I answered it, informed Landmark that no repairs had been done, no contact from the repair company had been made. And then one day, with no warning or anything, Landmark suddenly claims that the repairs are done! Yes, fantastic, except now the AC system has completely conked out and it's July! We're supposed to hit 100 degrees in a couple of days and they're claiming that the repairs were done. The repairs have never been done. This is outright fraud. I would stay away from this company if you have any sense in you.
I apologize for your very frustrating issue. We are working with your Landlord, the warranty holder, to get you taken care of right away. I appreciate your patience in this matter.

When we bought a home, the sellers had Landmark Home Warranty. It was very smooth and very easy when we filed a claim because of a crack in one of our furnaces. However, we were only given one name to go through and I thought that was our option. We weren’t really happy with the way things were done. They sent two workers and one of them was a boy. They were nice enough, and they looked at the pipes going up the roof, on top of the shingles coming down the other side of the house and said it was not good and that they were going to have to end up covering those pipes.
We decided to get our air conditioner replaced at the same time, so we paid over $6,000. We got a tech from Landmark for $600, but one of them said they could have just set the furnace in. So there was a big discrepancy there. When we called for our air conditioner check, I asked if there were other people and there were, so we went with somebody else. For our second claim with the AC, the guy was very professional. He found the problem and I was really pleased with him. That’s the company I would go with.

I have had 2 claims with Landmark Home Warranty. One was for my dishwasher that had rusted and broken racks, and the other for a blown a/c in the middle of summer in AZ. For the dishwasher, the contract company that came out to inspect the dishwasher. Then about 1 1/2-2 weeks later they installed the replacement racks. But, one of the replacement racks already had rusted prongs. Once we called the company, they advised they only do the install, Landmark does all the ordering. In this case, Landmark ordered one rack from Whirlpool and the other from some warehouse. Possibly a refurbishing company. Then another week or so goes by and they come back out with a new rack and it's perfect. The problem got solved, but I didn't get any response from my "claims advisor". I had to keep calling Landmark who would relay the messages to my claims advisor, who did send back confirmation emails with the service approvals.
As for my a/c, it got fixed without any issues or "coverage gaps". It did take about 4 days for the company to have a worker to my house, but it was due to the volume of service calls which was understandable. The company that came out said they would be there between 9-12, but didn't show up until close to 5. I never got a call saying they were running behind, until after I called asking for an ETA. The tech was apologetic, and friendly, fixed the a/c without any issues. I am completely satisfied only because everything was repaired and that's all I wanted!!

Landmark Home Warranty uses substandard contractors who lie to customers. In March 2016 I called Landmark when our 1/2 hp food disposal stopped working. Landmark sent Precision Plumbing to my house to fix/repair. When the "plumber" (owner's son) came to my house the second time to replace, he had a 1/3 hp food disposal. I told him I did not want a 1/3 hp but a 1/2 hp - simply replace what I had. The "plumber" told me it would take another 1-2 weeks to order the replacement. He continued to tell me he had NEVER had an issue with the 1/3 hp and told me if there were any problems he would come out and replace with a 1/2 hp food disposal himself.
After 4 months the cheap 1/3 hp piece of junk broke. I called Landmark who refused to refund my money. I also called Precision Plumbing who refused to refund my money. You add insult to injury, Precision Plumbing basically called me a liar. Good job Landmark - you lost a customer over $60. If I can, I will add photos of my original 1/2 hp food disposal and the piece of junk 1/3 hp food processor Precision Plumbing installed. I will now buy my own food disposal and install myself. I wish I had gone this route the first time. Stay away from Landmark Home Warranty and their substandard contractors!

I bought a new home 2 years ago and each time something needs to be replaced they offer to replace it with a like for like unit. Meaning your 20-year-old furnace will be replaced with a new but equal performing efficiency unit. This unfortunate replacement policy ends up with owners having to seek the cashout policy to purchase a more energy efficient unit. The risk here is now that if there are problems with your repair they are not responsible for related subsequent repairs affiliated with the new unit. Buyer beware! In addition service requests often take 1-2 weeks before someone gets back to you and this is after repeated calls to them to remind the contractors have still not contacted the owner.

I was reading prior reviews and one of the consumer's complaint is almost same as mine. I have multiple properties under warranty with Landmark Home Warranty (LMHW). My property manager had good opinion of them and recommended them over others. Now he thinks their warranty is a "joke". I am giving three stars instead of 1 or 0 because their warranty and service is fine with other service requests previous times.
Coming to my recent experience, my property manager opened a service request at 09:27 AM and from that time to afternoon they re-assigned the service request to 3 different contractors as none of their contractors responded to them or us. After my property manager called me, exhausted trying to make this work, around 5:00 PM I called LMHW and after another failed attempt by agent to reach the contractor he advised that I wait till next day morning and if I don't hear from the last assigned contractor I should call the 4th contractor whose number he provided, schedule a time with the 4th contractor and call back LMHW to re-assign to the 4th contractor. So I am essentially doing some of their job, which I was willing to do to get the issue resolved.
Next day as expected I could not connect with the 3rd contractor so called the 4th contractor's number provided by the LMHW agent. The contractor had slots available for the day but needed LMHW work order to put me on schedule. But to my shock I had to wait several minutes and attempt multiple times to connect to LMHW agent and in meantime two hours passed and the 4th contractor filled up his slots. After I finally connected with LMHW they scheduled me for tomorrow, third day from the day we opened service request, while it is about 100 degree temperatures here (Dallas). So keep these factors in mind, hopefully they will correct their service levels and be better again. Hopefully you are not in hot states in this summer and counting on warranty to take care of A/C issues.
I appreciate you taking the time to provide your honest feedback. I am glad that we have previously been able to provide a positive service experience for you.

I had a Landmark Home Warranty that expired almost a year ago. Prior to expiration we called on our water heater that smelled of gas when we turned it on. The plumber came out and said everything was good, "$60 please." So we turned it off because there obviously was a problem. Finally I got around to looking at it. There were two obvious problems. First, there was a leak on the inside of the flue that runs up the center of the tank. This caused a constant drip on the burner.
The second, and probably more pressing issue was that the gas valve was leaking when it was turned on. Both of these problems were easily diagnosed. I can't believe that a plumber could have missed them. I guess he just didn't feel like going through the effort to change out a water heater. Needless to say, I will not be using Landmark again.
Updated 8/2/2016 - To follow up on my experience with Landmark: When I contacted them directly to deal with a dangerous misdiagnosis their response was basically "tough luck, you should have had us send out another plumber", who would charge us another $60. So, I posted a review on this site and got a prompt response and apology. They also sent me a check for $60 to pay us back for the plumber's visit fee. The problem is that I should have had a new water heater and valve installed at Landmark's expense (if you have not seen my prior review, the plumber missed diagnosing a leaky water heater and a gas valve that was leaking natural gas into the mechanical room).
So the $60 does not come close to paying for the cost of a new water heater and valve that SHOULD have been installed after the first visit. Sending the $60 is a misleading and sneaky trick on Landmark's behalf. If I cash the $60 check then it will be difficult to sue Landmark for the cost of the repairs because they will point to the $60 as an agreed to settlement. It seems that the only way to get Landmark to respond is to state the problem publicly.
Mr. Mathis,
Wow! That was clearly a poor experience. I apologize for you having to deal with that. I would be very frustrated as well. I appreciate you providing your honest feedback as that is the best catalyst for change in a company. I read that you are no longer a Landmark Warranty owner. I would like to look into the issue and see if I can provide some type of resolution anyway. You can contact me directly and I will be happy to work with you.

I have had the Landmark Home warranty since purchasing my home in 2014. I should not have renewed after the first year but made the poor decision to renew. I have had 3 significant claims since being covers and each was a difficult transaction. The first claim was for an AC unit. The Landmark service company told us officially through landmark that he needed to replace the coil, however he told us in person that would only fix the unit for 2 weeks or so and the unit needed to be replaced. I contacted another AC company who said there was no way to fix or extend the life of the AC and it needed to be replaced. After many discussions with Landmark I was given $1000 toward a $7000 repair.
The second claim was for a bad blower motor for a hottub. Landmark tried to tell me that is was not covered. I spoke with them on numerous occasions and even sent them the contract from them that clearly stated it was covered, after about 2 weeks of back and forth they finally agreed to fix it. The latest claim was for a broken flange on a toilet, I called Landmark and stated that I was replacing a toilet and when I removed the old toilet noticed a broken flange and I wanted it repaired. They sent a plumber out, he waled in and said that because I removed the toilet it was believed that I tried to fix it and it would not have been covered.
Had Landmark told me that on the phone when I called them I could have avoided missing a day of work and a useless $60 callout fee for no service. My perception of them is that they initially decline all or most claims and hope that you do not push the issue. I would not do business with this company in the future and will recommend to my friends they do not either.
I am sorry that you have had such a frustrating experience with Landmark and your claims. I would like the opportunity to research the issue and try to find an appropriate resolution. Please contact me directly so that I can gather more information and move forward toward a resolution.

Upon calling Landmark while at work (9 am), I explained my problem during a 30-minute conversation with the representative. In that conversation as well as the notation on my contract, I thoroughly explained the problem with my "TANKLESS" water heater. Well I finally get someone to call me back & schedule service after 4 pm that same day. The plumber explained he could not come out until the next day. Ok, so I can deal with NO water for 1 more day. Well the next day, after taking more time off work, the plumber comes and clearly states: "I will not be able to fix this. My company does not work on tankless systems. The parts cost too much & landmark requires we pay for them. You will have to call Landmark & schedule service with another plumber who works on your system." What could I do? I'm stuck & I was forced to pay him the service fee as well. I then call Landmark and hold for 30 minutes (still taking time off from work).
The representative comes on the line, puts me on hold for another 20 minutes & says she found a repairman but he can't come until Friday. I asked her why would they send someone who doesn't work on tankless systems. Her reply was: "I really do apologize but the best I can do is waive the service fee for the next tech but I can't get anyone sooner than Friday." I then ask to speak to a manager. She puts me on hold for another 5 whole minutes. The manager comes to the phone and says: 1. She won't give me the number to the corporate office; 2. She suggest I warm up water on the stove to bathe my family with; 3. There will be no reimbursement for me being without water or the representative making the error of sending out a tech which doesn't work on tankless water systems. She said he would be coached. I then call the company who is said to be coming in 2 days and this company advised they haven't even recorded paperwork from Landmark.
She advised the representative whom she talked to: the paperwork needed to be in no later than 2 pm or my appointment would be canceled. So now I'm stuck without water for another 2 days and NO ONE at Landmark is willing to help me. When I advised I would consider not renewing my contract, their reply was: "That's fine. That's your option to choose another company once your contract expires." THIS COMPANY DOESN'T HAVE A CARE IN THE WORLD!
I apologize for your service request experience with Landmark. I can understand you frustration. Nobody wants to go without hot water. I will do everything to expedite your service. I know that your tankless system should have been addressed as part of hiring the contractor. Our mistake cost you days of cold water. I would like to work directly with you towards a positive resolution.

We moved into a new house in November. By thanksgiving the central vac no longer worked. We called Landmark and they sent someone out to look at it, who said there was a part broken on it that is not easy to get hold of. Then the fun began. Since then, over the last 9 months, my wife and I have called 15-20 times. We have an account rep but she has never actually answered the phone. General employees tell us they will "get back to us" but never ever do. (We must have heard that 5-6 times now.) I've sent 6 emails, none of which have been returned. Over the last nine months we have been able to reach a person 4 times. They have closed the case twice, even though they haven't done anything. The electrician they sent took the broken part with him, so we don't have that any more.
On the most recent time we were actually able to get hold of someone (about three weeks ago), they said they'd give us $200 to replace the unit, which is a $700 unit. We just wanted them to repair it. They have also asked on multiple occasions for a copy of our home inspection. This would be fine, but 1. they are not entitled to it by law or any other consideration. 2. No home inspection covers appliances such as central vacuums (so why do they want it). 3. I'm extremely reluctant to provide an inspection that I paid for myself to them when they don't talk to me and I have a strong suspicion they only want to use it against me (either now or in the future). This is the second worst customer service experience I have ever had. I'm pretty patient. But nine months and repeated games is really just insulting.

I will start by saying JUST DON'T DO IT. I purchased a foreclosure, so I knew there would be some problems. However, it was a home in a neighborhood I could only dream of. As a first time home buyer and a single parent of a 9 year old, I knew I should get a home warranty. I simply wouldn't have time or funds to fix whatever happened to come my way. So I read coverage agreements for multiple companies, and listened to the reviews of people I actually knew. Landmark seemed to be the way to go. However, I had a question or two. I will get to that later.
The home I purchased had a pool, and a third of the three car garage had been converted to function as a pool house. Prior to getting coverage I did my due diligence, and I contacted Landmark to ask if I needed pool house coverage. The rep asked if the pool house was attached to my home. I said yes. There is a walk way from the house to the garage covered by the same roof. The rep proceeded to say if it is covered by the same roof, then I would not need additional coverage. Great. I purchased the appropriate coverage for the home, and kept going.
Fast forward approximately four months, and we needed a plumber inside the main house, so I checked the toilet in the "pool house" since a plumber was coming. Sure enough I needed some help out there as well. Landmark then says that the conversion isn't covered. I was upset, because there is nothing worse than liars. They claimed that they would pull up the phone call, but wouldn't agree to honor their rep's words. The person with authorization to listen to phone calls was never in the office. Meanwhile the plumbing inside wasn't completely resolved. The plumber used something that scratched the surface of the inside of the toilet. (anyone care to guess what that looks like now) It was terrible. I gave up. STRIKE ONE.
Then a couple of weeks later, I have to travel out of town for a funeral. I come back Sunday, and pass out. I will forever regret not taking a shower before I got into bed. Monday morning, there is water coming from the ceiling. The hot water tank is leaking. I submit a claim. I have no water. Does Landmark expedite this? No. It takes over a week for someone to come in and fix the hot water tank. No showers, no baths, no washing dishes. It was a nightmare. Meanwhile I am constantly on the phone with reps who have been taught to say "I understand". I asked them to please stop saying that they understand. It was immensely irritating. STRIKE TWO.
Now it is pool season. Pool was fine, but the heater wasn't working. Pool isn't fine now. I call. They send out a company that honestly seems like they don't want to do the work. Normally that would my cue to find someone else. However, I have to work in the confines of Landmark. The guy comes out, says that the pool plumbing is completely wrong going to the heater, and he will have to fix it before he can even turn on the pool heater to see what is going on. Fine. He fixes the plumbing (although I can't see what he did differently), and he puts in a new timer (this I can see), and then he says (drum roll please) The heater is rusted. Landmark says "we don't fix rusted heaters". (Seriously??)
I asked the rep..."show me that in my contract. Where you won't repair an OUTDOOR appliance that does nothing but HEAT WATER, and it has rust on it. Not to mention, the rust is visible. If the repair man couldn't fix it because of rust, then why did he do all the plumbing to the heater. Something doesn't sound right." The rep then says "I need more information, can you send me pictures." I say "sure, but show me where it is in my contract about rust." She says she can't give me that information right now. I sent the pictures, but also let her know that I feel like Landmark is searching for a reason to deny the claim, because NONE of it makes sense.
I wait for a response... no response. I email, and ask for a response... no response. I call, and leave a voicemail... no response. I call the main number, and at the seven minute mark on hold, all of a sudden the looped music starts cracking like I am losing service. I wait. It cracks worse. I call back, and again at the seven minute mark on hold the looped music starts cracking again. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. I wait. I hear someone come on the line. I let him know that I can't hear what he is saying, and the line disconnects. I am angry. Thank goodness he calls back. He informs me that they are having telephone issues, so if I can't hear him again let him know, and he will call me back again.
Something is seriously wrong with this place. He has to call back a second time to say he is going to "research this" (haven't I heard that before?) Here we are an hour later, and no one has called me back. My guess, they get you off the phone to take other phone calls, and the cycle continues. Remember what I said? I've been sent to spread the message. Just. Don't. Do. It.

Landmark has been a great company. The AC has not been working and we called them up. Within a couple of days they had a repairman who identified the problem and fixed it. Unfortunately, the day he came it was really cold out so the AC wasn't actually doing anything and as soon as it got hot we found that while he got the fan working, the AC is still not working. I called them back and they were very apologetic and immediately got someone on it. The people at Landmark are incredibly friendly and sympathetic when you call in and it's not the usual experience. I trust them too when I deal with the fact they were an insurance company. Landmark is delightful.

Phoenix, AZ: It has taken 2 weeks to fix my fridge. I placed a fan condenser service order 2 weeks ago. Turns out the subcontractor (Appliance Wizards) missed diagnosing and replacing a condenser seal (water coming out from the bottom of the fridge on and off). Subcontractor also left the fan blades hitting the fridge wires.
When I complained to Landon at Landmark Home Warranty extension ** he said that there was no emergency in having fan blades hitting wires... and that this was not a fire hazard. He also said "You can unplug your fridge if you think this is a fire hazard". He refused giving me a full refund of my warranty and was not able to dispatch another subcontractor to check the fridge and fix it immediately at NO COST. It seems that clients are paying Landmark's learning curve to contract the right technicians. Whenever I contacted Appliance Wizards, they did not call back or email back. Think twice before buying Landmark Home Warranty. I am requesting a full refund and taking my business somewhere else.

We've used another home warranty for 21 years but they started sending in terrible contractors that did shoddy works. The contractors also charged us something but when I called the home warranty company, they told us different prices. We went with Landmark instead and we're having a better experience with them. Submitting a claim with them is easy. But I feel like the first thing that their rep should ask is if one has an emergency or a repair that needs to be taken care of, not a sales pitch or "can we get your new contract?", which is ridiculous.
My last claim was a little difficult because they brought me through so much stuff before they can get for a repair. Then when they sent out a contractor on Saturday and he called in for authorization, there was nobody there that could authorize it because they're all out over the weekend. When we spoke to the claim manager however, she said there's normally somebody there. Nevertheless, after that, everything else was taken care of immediately.
The people that come when we submit a claim to Landmark are polite and well-dressed. They're very professional, know what they're doing, and do the best thing on the parts or whatever is necessary. They're excellent like the air conditioner guy. He always calls and let us know that he got the information and he also set up an appointment. He calls a half an hour or an hour before telling me he's on his way. He also did what he was supposed to do and fixed whatever needed to be fixed.

Landmark Home Warranty provided an adequate resolution to the problem.
Original Review: May 20, 2016
I have two homes that are supposedly covered by Landmark Home Warranty. The price of a warranty through Landmark Home Warranty is much higher than alternative companies, but I thought the high price would equate to a superior company. I was wrong. Be sure to read the fine print in the contract. My toilets are broken, and the plumber sent by Landmark Home Warranty used his professional judgement to deem them unrepairable and determined they needed to be replaced.
Landmark would not allow the plumber to replace them at his estimated price of $515 (by the way, Landmark does not replace like for like; they offer you the builder's budget model). Instead they offered me a cash-in-lieu amount of only $300 or $75 per toilet installed! That amount doesn't even cover the cost of one hour of labor for a plumber. It has been 12 days since the problem was brought to their attention, and I still have no resolution. I am very dissatisfied with Landmark Home Warranty and DO NOT recommend their service. Plenty of alternative companies are available that provide a much better service.
My contracts with Landmark Home warranty expire next month and I will NOT renew with them. Furthermore, I am notifying my real estate agent to not recommend Landmark Home Warranty anymore due to their unreasonable resolutions to repairs. The service they provide is marginal at best. Do yourself a favor and GO WITH ANOTHER COMPANY. This is the first time I have taken the time to say something negative about a company, but my experiences with Landmark Home Warranty have been so disappointing I decided I must bring it to the attention of other people.
Thank you for giving Landmark this opportunity to address your concerns. I have received your complaint and will research what occurred during this situation right away.

Update: Since posting this review and another one on Consumer reviews, there was an Elise ** in public relations reached out to me. I also got in contact with Jay ** who is the highest you can talk to in the customer service department, He was extremely helpful in communicating and giving me more options. They ended up replacing the outdoor unit with the new 410 units, I had to replace the air handler because it wasn't "broken" but the new units are the different freon which the old air handlers don't work with. I was fine with this arrangement. I hired my own HVAC contractor and he ended up converting the old air handler to the work with the new freon instead of having me pay for a whole new air handler.
As far as Landmark goes, I feel like they're normal customer service reps don't know what's going on, I was told conflicting things from different reps, I was put on hold a lot, and given answers that were, "I don't know" It wasn't until I talked to the higher ups that I got good service and got my issues taken care of.
Original Review: May 19, 2016
We've had this new house for 8 months now, since then we've opened a claim with landmark 4 times for the same AC Unit. The contractors have replaced the fan blade 3 times, the motor twice, a circuit board once, and fuse once. Every time they left, the unit was working however it was very loud and rattled a lot. 2 contractors recommended that it be replaced but landmark denied that request. I understand they just want to get it working until I'm out of warranty.
4th time it went out was 8 days ago. All the Freon leaked out and the unit has a leak in the coil of the outdoor unit. The first contractor came out and found the leak (which I had to pay for the inspection part) next he recommend replacement. Landmark approved replacement then after 3 days decided to send out a 2nd opinion, that contractor couldn't come out for 3 days, (not landmark's fault). However the 2nd contractor also recommended replacement. Landmark approved it, However I've called them multiple times trying to find out the status, time frame, etc. Nobody has any answers. I feel like I'm talking to $8 an hour employees that aren't trained very well.
I had one rep tell me they would only cover up to $1500 and they've already done $700 in repairs for the last 8 months so I only have $800 left for the new unit and I'll have to come up with the rest. (Why have a home warranty? I've already paid over $240 in the $60 a visit service fees alone and would have replaced it back the 1st time). The next rep I talked to said that rep didn't know what they were talking about (I hope that's true). Now it's been over 8 days, and my wife and kids have been stuck in a hot house while I'm at work. Wife is preparing meals in a hot kitchen while 3 kids under 5 years old are hot and whiny. I'm very frustrated that as the family provider I can't get this thing fixed quickly because Landmark is taking so much time making decisions.
I would think that if there is something that is broken on a house that is a necessity that they should have more of a higher priority or different protocols to help the customer get it fixed sooner. I'm very frustrated with Landmark and their customer service. I still think I'll get some value out of having a warranty, but at the cost of extreme uncomfortableness of my family, which is extremely frustrating because I put my family above everything else. I tried calling again twice today. One person said they would look into what was going on and call me back. Nobody did. Now I called them again and they said that they're "trying" to locate a unit and it could be 24-48 hours before they do... how ridiculous!! I'm in St. George Utah. It's been 95 degrees a couple of times this week. Thank goodness it cooled off the last 2 days. If I could get some answers from the reps, and if I could get this figured out quicker, my reviews would be 5 stars.
I appreciate you providing your feedback on your experience with Landmark. I apologize that your claim completion has taken some time. I am happy to review the issue and address any concerns you have.

When I purchased the house, I said I wanted a warranty and Landmark Home Warranty was negotiated in. I've had three claims in two weeks. The first and third ones were perfect. The middle one was a nightmare and it still is. The contractor did not show up the first time, changed his time to when he said he'd get here and still did not make that time either. He came in saying he couldn't do the job and then he left. He said someone would call me right back. Three days later, I had to call them because no one had called me right back. They still couldn't get anybody to call me back and then they dropped the claim. They said they wouldn't fix the oven, then they said they would.
Every time, I've had to make the contact to the company to get things going because it goes into never-never land. A week ago, I called and I spent a couple of hours on the phone trying to get things reinstigated. It sounded like the ball's moving now. We're waiting for some kind of circuit board to get it rebuilt which is supposed to be done today. Then they're supposed to call me and schedule to have it installed tomorrow. But I still haven't gotten a call to tell me that it's done and it's gonna get rescheduled. To this date, we're still waiting for the oven to get fixed. I need it to be done. I don't wanna keep calling. Instead, I want someone to call me to make sure that they're doing something 'cause it seems like I have to keep prodding to get things going, which is odd because the other two experiences were great.

We had a choice of Home Warranty companies when we bought our new home. After researching, we chose Landmark. I have to say that we are very happy with our decision so far. Our realtor purchased a re-key service for us. I called Landmark and a contractor contacted me within a couple of hours to set up an appointment. They would have had someone out to my house that very day, but I needed a weekend appointment. It was taken care of that weekend. The service only covered 6 keyholes, and we had 7, but it only cost about $13 to do the extra one. We also had two toilets that were slow to flush and fill, so I called Landmark. A contractor was back in touch with me within an hour of the call, and set up an appointment for the next day. For the cost of a service call, he took care of the issues quickly and professionally.

I got Landmark from Nextdoor which is an app for different neighborhoods. I looked down the list and compared reviews. Landmark had the best reviews and it was recommended by someone else who was asking about home warranties so I went with them. We submitted a claim two weeks ago and the guy on the phone was friendly. At first, I was a little upset because it was going to be possibly four hours before I heard from someone and didn’t even know if they could do it that day.
Then, the contractor called within two hours and he was great. He showed up on time and notified me of where he was. He replaced our hot water heater on the same day. He met the time window that we came up with perfectly so I knew what to expect. He left and got the part, came back and did their thing. He showed me how it worked at the end and went on his way. I had a lot going on so it was amazing and I was very happy. Overall, it was an efficient experience. They were knowledgeable and very caring when it came to trying to help me resolve the problem.

I've had Landmark Home Warranty for a year and just paid to renew my contract. I've called them a few times for plumbing issues and for pest control once. With pest control I was immediately offered outside authorization because they don't have companies that service my area. With plumbing I've always been assigned one company until this last claim. I've been assigned 4 different companies in the last 5 days. Meanwhile, my family of 6 has no running water due to a major leak that floods our house when the water is on.
The first 3 companies called don't service my area. I've had to repeatedly call Landmark and tell them the companies never called in the time frame I was told, only to be told they are looking for someone else. The last company called was the one assigned previous times. Just as recent as 2 months ago, I had a faucet issue. After several days of trying to call the plumbing company and get a response, I was called and set an appointment. They came out, took our faucet and said they'd get with Landmark and get a replacement.
I waited a week before I called Landmark and informed them the company wouldn't return my phone calls again and I wanted my broken part back at least if they weren't going to return. Landmark tried to reach out to the company for 3 days and never got a call back or an answer themselves. Finally the plumbing company reached out to me and Landmark and decided to return and fix the issue. I waited to hear something yesterday until after 4 PM from this same company once again. They could come out and look at it 'sometime' and then I'd have to wait no telling how long before actually getting it fixed and having running water again.
On day 3, I was able to find a plumbing company on my own that could come and fix the problem that day. I asked for outside authorization and was denied while they tried to find companies number 3 and 4 over the next day and a half. Landmark does not treat this as a priority and neither does the contractor they hired. Because I refuse for my family to be without water longer than the 5 days I've already waited on Landmark and they refuse to authorize an outside contractor who has been on standby to make the repairs a priority, I'm having to pay hundreds out of pocket and will be cancelling my policy. At least I won't have to wait a month before I have water. This is not the first issue we've had with them, just the most current.

My neighbor and I discussed having a home warranty insurance. I had First American and I was not that happy with them, so my friend researched on the internet and told me what he had found out. He then joined Landmark and I followed when my contract with First American expired. Overall, my experience has been good except with one contractor. I requested a service call for my AC unit. The contractor came over and stated that the attic unit was slightly dirty but it was nothing to be concerned about. Then he said he was gonna report to Landmark what he had found and recommend to replace a capacitor. He did that, but in turn, he told the Landmark people that if the unit wasn't cleaned it was liable to have problems.
I got a call from Landmark the following day and they said if I did not have the unit cleaned they would not cover the unit. I told them I don't believe the man told the truth and I thought he was just trying to generate work for himself. But I told them I'll take it under advisement. I got another contractor to check the unit, they took pictures of the inside and said the unit was not dirty; therefore, it doesn't need to be cleaned.
Other than that, placing a claim was easy. I get to talk to a person on the other end rather than a recording. I got prompt response to whatever my problem was and within hours, a contractor contacted me, they arrived and fixed it. Their service has been outstanding and I'm extremely satisfied with it. I'm sure it will continue. They're great and they got a happy customer in me.

My husband and I have Landmark Home Warranty purchased as part of the closing of our home about two years ago. We renewed. We followed all requirements for preseason AC tuneup. This year, 3 weeks after Landmark contractor completed preseason tune up and said our AC is fine, the temperature spiked. AC was not cooling so we filed claim. After waiting more than 48 hours for Landmark to assign contractor, and another 24 hours for contractor to come to property, Landmark refused to cover, to pay for test, to detect location of freon leak in evaporative coil.
The contract clearly states "coverage includes evaporative coil, condenser, leak in accessible freon line." Atlantic Air contractor said R22 AC units are being phased out and so many issues with evaporative coil and condenser that the whole unit needs to be replaced. But Atlantic Air told us that Landmark will not allow him to replace the whole unit.
Landmark then requested a second opinion and scheduled appointment for two weeks later. When I explained about the weather and that my asthma and eczema and kids eczema and allergies had flared up because of the heat, Landmark rep told us to "just leave the window open." I explained this is Texas and that we have 90 degree heat an hour after a rain storm. I told her that I cannot wait.
In the meantime, I requested two contractors not related to Landmark to come for an independent opinion. Both contractors told me AC unit needs to be replaced but because of the way the unit is connected to the house, the furnace needs to be replaced as well and the house needs to be brought up to code. I understand that Landmark is not responsible for the access issues, the furnace problems, and the code problems. But Landmark's contract says that R22 units will be replaced by units complying with all regulations. Also Landmark's second opinion contractor also told us that the R22 unit needs to be replaced and not just the evaporative coil. Unfortunately, Landmark is still refusing to comply with its own contract. Very, very disappointing.
All I am asking is for a cash payout for us to pay a contractor to replace the AC unit. I am ready to pay out of my own pocket for all the access, furnace and the code issues. But the AC unit costs about $6500 for a low-end model (for all the work it's about $10,000). The evaporative coil R22 which has been phased out is about $1400 including labor, and Landmark wants us to go back to Atlantic Air company whose own contractor admitted to us that he cannot request a replacement AC unit from Landmark even though that is what is required. Atlantic Air was more concerned about getting service requests from Landmark and Landmark is more concerned about preventing legitimate payouts instead of providing truthful, honest service, in violation of its contract.

After recent purchase of a Landmark home warranty and subsequent experience with their claims process, I am writing this review to urge others to look to another home warranty company for coverage. Below is an attempt to share my experience.
Upon recent home purchase, I purchased a home warranty policy through Landmark on 2/26/2016. Seeing that this house is my first with a pool, I wanted to maximize coverage and thus purchased a “Premier Plus No Fault, Swimming Pool/ Hot Tub/Portable Spa Equipment” policy. Specifically, this policy was a $750 policy due to home size premium as well as pool policy rider. Upon move into new home, I recognized debris recirculating in pool. I immediately contacted Landmark to gain additional knowledge on the process and discuss next steps. Below is a summary of the documented correspondence and dates.
3/29/16 - During the claims call I was connected with claims manager, Michael **. I informed him of my pool symptoms and we discussed the process for contacting a third party service company. In our conversation it was referenced, and I now recognize was the first sign of evasion of contractual terms, that wear and tear is not a covered item on the contract. Note, this commentary was disclosed prior to notification of the problem from the service company. I found it odd that there were already discussions of exclusions and even made note of that on the call. 3/31/16 - Customer service representative (Nasha?) leaves a voicemail informing me that the pool is not covered due to it being a “crack in the grid” and that this is an exclusion on the contract.
3/31/16 - I received a detailed email from Michael on 3/31 stating that the failure was caused by “grid cracks” and that below ground items were not covered. This was the second red flag and most telling. It was quite obvious that it was assumed this would be an easy way to exclude because the system was below ground. Instead, the part in reference is part of the filtration system. The entire area affected is above ground. This was my second sign of evasion of contractual terms as noted in the “Premier Plus No Fault, Swimming Pool/ Equipment” policy details. 3/31/16 - I called Michael ** back and explained that the part is above ground and the grid is absolutely not an excluded item on the policy. He explains that he will have to go back and consult with others in the company.
4/01/16 - I call and have a discussion with Michael **. He says, after discussion with others, this is not covered because it is a “disposable system”. Now this is the third time I am getting a different reason on why this is not covered, and, again, based on the types of products defined as “disposables” in the “Premier Plus No Fault, Swimming Pool” policy, it remains clear this is not accurate.
Prior to writing this review, I also wrote a letter on April 2nd to the CEO of Landmark. It was my intent that surely this was just not getting to the appropriate parties within the company to address appropriately. Instead, I have not received any response as of April 17th regarding the concern. Based on my experience, the intent of their process was quite obvious from the first call. I would urge you to look to other companies for coverage, especially if it is pool related.
Mr. Zahn,
Thank you for your patience while I investigate this frustrating issue for you. I have been able to review the notes in our system. I appreciated your email and I hope this reply will address all of you concerns.
Let me make sure that I understand your issue. Your concern is that the pool filter grids need replacement. You have reviewed the contract and believe this should be a covered issue. Your concern is that the filter grids are an above-ground, accessible, working part and/or component of the filtration system and should be covered by the contract.I have pasted the contract information below so that we may both refer to it as needed.
SWIMMING POOL - SPA - HOT TUB - PORTABLE SPA EQUIPMENT*....$150COVERED: Above ground and accessible working parts and components of heating and filtration system, as follows: Heater, Pump, *Motor Filter, *Filter Timer, Gaskets, Blower, Timer, Back Flush Valve, Pool Sweep Motor and Pump, Above ground Plumbing Pipes and Wiring.
*Motor Filter
*Filter Timer
EXCLUSIONS: Pool Sweep, Jets, Ornamental Fountains, Lights, Skimmers, Pool Liner, Pool Cover and Related Equipment, Fill Line, Fill Valve, Control Panel, Control Switches, Computerized Control Boards and Related Equipment, Cleaning or Maintenance of equipment such as, but not limited to, Chlorinators, Ionizers, and the like, Fuel Storage Tanks, Built-in or Detachable Cleaning Equipment including Pop-up Heads, Turbo Valves, Creepy Crawlers and the like, Disposable Filtration Mediums, Heat Pump, Solar Plumbing or Heating Equipment, Valve Actuator Motor salt cell and salt water chlorinator.
I understand that it may have not been clear to you what is considered a disposable filtration medium. The contractor did explain why is was considered a disposable medium. You indicated that you believed it was listed as specifically as covered.
At the bottom of the contract page there is a section that states:
*If the part or service required does not affect the functioning of the working unit, it is not covered. This contract covers only the items mentioned as covered and excludes all others.I understand that you are feeling frustrated because your experience so far has been that your service requests are not covered items, and have been stated as exclusions.
In reviewing the issue of the filter grids issue, I see a claims manager denied your service. The issue is whether the grids are considered "disposable filtration mediums" which are an exclusion in the contract. It looks like the original service request stated that “water filter debris coming back into pool. Homeowner thinks the filters are cracked.”
I apologize that Landmark has not met your expectation of the contract. Landmark always follows the contract for all services so that we may be equitable to all of our homeowners. It is always our intention to create a positive claim service in a timely manner. Our homeowner’s opinions matter. We appreciate you feedback in regards to our claims department and the services that our contractors provide.
We were able to send out **********. They are one of our top pool repair contractors. I show that they were able to come on 3/30/2016. The contractors are the eyes and ears of Landmark. Because we cannot be in the field with them we use their expertise in the field to complete claims. *********** called in the diagnosis on 3/31/2016 and the claim was denied per the contract exclusions. The contractor knew from experience that Landmark does not replace the filter grids as they are considered a part of the disposable filtration medium.
I do understand why you were frustrated at this point. You had an expectation of coverage that was not met by the warranty contract. I apologize that this situation was confusing.In referring back to the contract:
SERVICE OVERVIEW – Part A
#2 - c. have become inoperable due to normal usage after the Effective Date of this Contract.
THIS CONTRACT DOES NOT COVER – Part D
#2 Failure to Clean or Maintain, Improper Previous or Attempted Repair, Routine Maintenance, Odors, Noises, Damage due to Pests or Pets, Neglect, Misuse, Abuse, Missing Parts, or Adjustments.#5 You are responsible for providing Maintenance and cleaning on covered items as specified by the manufacturer to ensure continued coverage on such items. (For Example: heating and air conditioning systems require periodic cleaning and/or replacement filters and cleaning of evaporator and condenser coils.)
Mr. Zahn, I am sure it feels like Landmark is looking for a way to not cover your issue. It is not the case. We have to follow the contract in every case. It is the only way to be fair to every homeowner, every time.
I looked into the grid filtration information on the internet. I found 2 video’s that show how to replace the grid filters yourself. Here are the links:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3CleipKc5A&ebc=ANyPxKrtiLytJ3qGoSgGlkBiyQGoH-Ml9sMWOdmQJ4pZXck1E_AylpCtLR-_RbA8w3n38L63cHgAk1ca-T8yq7gc99OyPicjwAhttp://www.inyopools.com/HowToPage/how_to_replace_de_filter_grids.aspx
I checked into pricing the grids as well.
*The average filter purchase price is $133.00 on the site for POOL SUPPLY WORLD: http://www.poolsupplyworld.com/filter-grids.htm*The average filter purchase price is $187.00 on the site for LESLIE’S SWIMMING POOL SUPPLIES. http://www.lesliespool.com/filter-grids.htm
Please understand these are general prices and it would depend on your unit Brand and type for a specific price.
I know this situation has been stressful. I hope my explanation has been of use to you. I always seek to resolve homeowner issues the very best that I can.Please feel free to contact me should you have any additional questions.
Best Wishes,

My nephew who's a real estate agent told me that Landmark is a good service. I also liked their price so we got them about 2 years ago. Filing a claim with them is very easy. I just submit them online and they call me within 24 hours and tell me who is coming out to work on the issue. They give me all the information that I need and they get the contractors working as soon as they can. The technicians have been great, too. They don't let stuff lie around. We're probably going to renew with Landmark.

I've been with Landmark for a couple of years. I got a home warranty from them because I heard they were good. But it's hard now and it takes a lot of time getting a claim through and getting somebody out that's local. The last time I filed a claim, they processed it after I was on the phone with them for an hour or two. Then my claim had to be reassigned and I had to wait another five hours. It took longer than it should.
I had good interactions with the claims rep. But it's getting the claim started and getting through their computer system that's the hard part because they now have the claim assignment automated and that's been a problem lately. They used to give you a list of contractors and then you could pick out of that list which one you wanted to come out to your home. But they don't want you to pick now. They just go by whichever contractor the computer selects. But I don't like not being able to choose who comes out to my house. After we got past getting the claim processed and getting somebody out, though, then things went smoothly. It was good with the technician who came out to our home and the experience was great.

I have been more than happy with Landmark Home Warranty. We had a dishwasher that went south and the service tech was timely and professional. He came out three times as parts arrived and did everything he could to repair the dishwasher. When it was becoming clear, that further repairs were more costly than a replacement, he made the recommendation to Landmark. Landmark customer service has been extremely responsive, friendly, and great listeners. I also appreciate that their responses are not the typical canned response, but rather helpful suggestions based on information gathered while listening to the issue. In other words, listening to ME, which is very refreshing. Keep up the great work Landmark, and I will continue to recommend your service!

My realtor gave me a brochure and we compared services and price, and thought that Landmark Home Warranty was a better option, so we picked them. They have good service. I had a claim and called them in the morning about my shower, and a technician came to fix the issue that afternoon. It was quick. I also received follow-up emails on who the contractor was, who was going to be contacting me and when it was reported, as well as if the issue was fixed. It was a good experience.

Landmark was very professional and took care of everything exactly the way I needed it to. They took care of my claim faster than I expected. It was extremely easy. I talked to someone on Easter Sunday at 2:00 am and the reps were completely understanding and sympathetic to my needs, and took care of it the next morning - it was perfect. This is my first time ever needing them, but I’ll use them again if I need them. Plus, the technician gave me some great advice that I ended up being in the situation where I am now. I was very happy with his advice. I will definitely renew if I'm up and as soon as I can.

I tried getting a quote for the best service through internet and comparing the options, Landmark Home Warranty was the best. Customer satisfaction is good, the rate of claims approved is high and they were beating the other ones in pricing and coverage. We had two services done - a problem with the dishwasher and the sink. The contractor quickly checked if the sink was having no pressure to see if we required the plumbing or not. Based on the check that he did he solved the problem of the sink. The pressure of the water was obstructed by some residuals in the sink. Then something needs to be done with the dishwasher because the pressure of the water was fine in the area. The service was fast but sometimes it requires two appointments to solve the problem. I would love that the dishwasher be fixed the same day but we understand that that's the process. At the end of the day, the dishwasher problem was solved, so we're happy.
