We have an older washer. Something was happening when you turn the dial and pull it out or push it in. The guy who came had to replace something in the start up and the shut off thing. He was very nice from when he came to when he left. That guy and his company were great. The dispatcher from the company that this guy was with called within about 10 minutes after I talked to AHS and set up an appointment for us. It worked out really well.
We’ve lived here for 11 years and we've had AHS for at least eight years. We went with a couple other companies somewhere along the line but came back to AHS. Our experience is sort of a catch-22. The first few years we were with them, I don’t know if they were overwhelmed or understaffed, but it was a real pain in the neck to call them up and finally get to talk to somebody live and set an appointment up for whatever you needed done. Then that changed after a few years and it got better.

I had repairs done on my dishwasher, my washing machine, and my overhead fan. The tech made some minor repairs on the dishwasher. The filter in washing machine had to be cleaned and there was stuff piled up in it. Then he had to replace the motor on the overhead fan. He ordered the parts and the work was done real promptly. I’m really a satisfied customer. I left Sears to go with American Home Shield and I’m very satisfied that I chose them.

American Home Shield's response is pretty fast and they solve your problem efficiently. I submitted a claim on Friday, and then I got someone contact me on Monday. The person scheduled the service and then he came in the same day. I got my faucet replaced on Monday, so that's higher than my expectations. He arrived with mask and performed very fast. He finished his job in 30 minutes. So far, it’s all really good. The only one tiny detail I realized yesterday is somehow, the faucet is not that well connected to my sink. There's a couple of drips if I'm washing stuff.

As far as putting in a call, that's easy. I do it online. However, I had some issues with one of American Home Shield's contractors. It was with my refrigerator. The control panel shorted out. And it’s the panel where you can control the temperature. The tech came out right away and diagnosed it. He then sent the panel off to be refurbished because there were no new parts for it. He came back and installed it, but it didn't work. He was going to get with AHS to find out what the next steps were but I never heard from him. This went on for months. I called and texted him but he would not return them. At one point, he said that he put it in with AHS. We haven't heard back from them. It went on and on. I was without a refrigerator for three months.
I found out that the contractor gets negative marks if they are not able to repair it. I suspect that was the reason why the tech never returned, because he knew he would not be able to repair it. It was going to be a mark against him. I ended up having to pay another $80 to get another contractor to come out here and do what the first guy was supposed to do, but it was not repairable. It ended up that AHS replaced my refrigerator. Other than that, everything went smooth with the majority of the contractors. When the control panel went out on my oven, Calvary Appliance Repair had to send it off to be rebuilt.

I always call and speak to someone when filing claims to American Home Shield. They're always courteous. The technicians that come out have always been great as well. There was just one that had me all up in flames because it took a month to get parts. However, I'm not mad with them. I understand that because of COVID, the processing time for them to actually receive my part was a bit long. But normally, it's not that way. I'm usually pretty much satisfied when they leave. I've been really pleased with AHS. They have done the things that needed to be done. We have upgraded the things in my home that needed to be upgraded. Sometimes I call and have them check on stuff when I feel like it's getting off. They come in and fix my things so that I'm able to keep my appliances longer. I recommend them to my friends and family members. However, they are not doing everything perfectly, but I'm not upset.
We are grateful for the time that you've taken to share you AHS experience. Please let us know if you need any assistance in regards to your warranty. Have a great week.

American Home Shield is worth the money. It was very easy to get a claim set up for someone to come out and work on something in my house. Technicians replaced the faucets in both my kitchen and my bathroom. They had to fix the pipe in the bathroom so it didn't clog the house. Now, everything is working better than before. The people were very competent and polite.

We had a faulty clothes dryer. It's working, but it makes a terrible sound and it was not drying the clothes well. I had submitted a claim to American Home Shield, and they assigned a repair person company to come out. He was efficient. He identified the problem. There was a little hiccup. He didn't have the part. It was something for the drum. They said they would give us a call back in three to five days with the part. I called, and initially, they said they had closed out the order by mistake rather than getting the parts, and then I'd have to call American Home Shield back. But then, one of the managers called and said, "The part’s been ordered. It was backordered. It's supposed to be in today. And as soon as it gets in, they'll come and put it in."
We also had two other claims. One was an air conditioning problem and the other was a garbage disposal problem. Everything was fine except the company that put in the new garbage disposal must not have put it in securely. About 40 days later, a latch came off. So, it was just hanging there. I called American Home Shield back. I called the company. They said the 30 days had passed so I have to call American Home Shield. I did, but I had to pay another $75 just for someone to come out. I didn't know what the problem was. But when somebody came out, they fixed it in five minutes. They said the people that put the new disposal in didn't install it correctly. So, I was not pleased that I had to pay an extra $75. But the company that came in for the air conditioning problem was fine. They came in, identified the problem, got a part in one or two days, and fixed it.

I love American Home Shield. My sister uses it and I got it from her. So far, so good. Whoever they choose that's come out and fix whatever's wrong, they come in, put their little things on their feet and have their mask on. They go straight to work and it doesn't take more than a couple hours. I had them come out to fix the AC the first time. They did a great job with that and then I had them come out recently to check the AC again because it started getting hot in there. There was some type of special going on and I got it. The second guy that did the AC unit was determined. He said, "I'm gonna figure this out," and he did. It didn't take him long at all. When my doorbell wasn't working, a repair guy came over and rewired it. He was very professional. He knew what to do and he was done before I could blink. Now, it's working good.
Thanks for letting us know how everything is going so far. Taking care of our members is the main goal here at AHS. I am glad that you were happy with your experience up to this point. We look forward to servicing you in the future as needed. Take Care.

The service for both our dishwasher and dryer was very good. The service guy was amazing. He was completely business-like, professional and nice. He took the whole thing apart and put it back together so I could wait for a part. When the second guy showed up, I had concerns. He looked a little casual but he was wonderful. Both guys shut up when they were supposed to and did the job. I was very pleased and in this day and age, it's hard enough to let anyone in your house.
We're very pleased with the service from American Home Shield. I read all the negative reviews and we have not had those issues. They're there when I call. I tend not to use an app or go on the computer. I’m older, so I tend to do everything by phone. They're patient sometimes when they need to be. I'm not always the easiest customer to deal with. Things happen and you panic. Every heater breaks at the same time and I never asked what it would have cost to fix it. It would have been more than the $79 and even with the cost of our warranty. I love having AHS. Years ago, I had an issue with an electrician that they sent but other than that, it's been very good.

Our thermostat on the wall was not working and we had to leave it on heat. We couldn't do anything because it wouldn't allow us to do anything. The technician installed a new thermostat on the wall. The new one is a little cheap and not as automated as the one that was there, but it's working now. I like the convenience of being able to call American Home Shield and schedule an appointment when something is out and they are able to send out technicians to check out the problem.

I had some electrical problems in the house. The porch light wasn't working and another light was flickering. So, I had an electrician come out and take a look at them. He was real friendly and knowledgeable, and he worked on my porch lights, got them working and then informed me that the reason this other light was flickering was because it's getting too hot, so I needed to change the kind of light that it is. He couldn't fix it. He just said, “You're going to have to change it to something better.”
Contractors have been out a few times. When we first bought the house, I had somebody come out and rekey the whole house. A week or so ago, I had a plumber come out and help me with a clogged drain pipe. The service is pretty good. American Home Shield pulled everybody out of Amarillo when there's a really good plumber right here in Pampa, Texas, where I live. A lot of them service the whole Panhandle but it does take a day or two to get somebody out here, especially if it's over the weekend. Overall, American Home Shield is a good company and I will continue to keep them.

I have used American Home Shield in the past when the company was first getting started and nothing has really changed. In fact, I've seen other improvements where they've had add on packages like the electronic package. There’s two claims that I have going right now. I'm going to be completing my heat pump Wednesday. For my second claim, they had my cooktop put it in, and the only cooktop that I was allowed to get online is a little bit too small for the space that I have. So I just have to put a ledge on the inside, and call American Home Shield back, and have them reschedule for the guys to come out and install it. But American Home Shield was very quick to respond and the service members have been great. They've been prompt. They call before they come. They also made sure they had their masks on when entering my home.

My husband was home and from what I heard, it was fine. The tech had a follow up phone call. He had to order a part. He left, and then he called an hour later and said, “Hey, I found the part.” He came right back, put it in, and then everything worked. He followed up the next day by phone.

American Home Shield is an expensive way to go. It's $50 a month and it's $100 every time we call someone out. I had to pay $100 upfront to get a plumber when I had a leak in one of the faucets in one of the bathrooms and I wasn't expecting to pay since I wasn't told about it. But it's security for my home and it seems to be going okay.

We called to get someone to come out here for our refrigerator, which is three years old. The little thing that you push to get your water and ice broke off. American Home Shield sent out a person who collected money upfront. The tech said there was an issue with the icemaker and that he was gonna have to order a whole new icemaker holder and the little thing to get the water and ice on the door. He said he'd put in the report right then. We didn't hear anything. I called yesterday and spoke to someone in their office and they said he never put anything in.
Also, one time, American Home Shield sent someone out because we weren't getting enough hot water. The gentleman pulled up in a truck that was not identifiable and went up in the attic over the garage. He had no tool belt. He came back down and said that the water heater was working. He said I just need to have it flushed and that my policy doesn't cover this so it's $250 if I wanted him to do it. My husband asked if he checked anything and he said yes and that there was hot water in it but that it doesn't last and it takes forever to get where it needs to get. We're looking to get another policy. American Home Shield is not sending out quality repairmen, except for Douglas Mechanical who came out for the AC. They were awesome.

American Home Shield is a good investment because if anything breaks down, you wouldn't have to put out thousands of dollars. You're already covered. I usually call them and they answer the phone right away and try to resolve the problem. I had a recent claim where the contractor was really good. The claim is not yet closed as I'm just waiting for them to order something for my bathroom. They still have to come out and they have to replace my toilet.
I had another claim that I had a problem with. It wasn't American Home Shield's fault but the contractor that came out. The guy that came out on Christmas Eve was the owner of the company. He put a washer on my faucet and said, "We did the problem. We'll put our request in for American Home Shield." Parts were going to be ordered so I waited. But they never came back. I called back in March and the claim was already closed. There was nothing the warranty company could do. But they said they were gonna report that contractor to their superiors because they didn't do what they supposed to do. I had to put out another $100 for another company to come out three months later.

The garbage disposal is fixed but two items are still outstanding. The contractor said they were going to get back to us for the water filter that was under the sink which they never did. For the ice maker, they did call and scheduled it then they changed it due to snow. It was very difficult to reschedule it again and the person who came in looked at it and said a plumber has to come in and left it at that. I don't know if they reported back to AHS and I haven't heard anything from their end what the next step is. I've been with AHS since I moved to Lancaster which is four and a half years. Prior to that, I was in Fairfax, Virginia and I was with them for another five, six years. The last few experiences were not fun and I wasn't satisfied with the service. The monthly price also went up and I was trying to look at other companies to see their pricing.

The people at American Home Shield are professional and courteous. They are timely and they send contractors out immediately. They resolve their matters efficiently. But the speed of service of the contractor is not always timely. It takes a little longer for them to complete a job. They're sending a completed item to American Home Shield when it is not completed. They are quick to get their money but not quick to fix things properly. There should be a proper initial diagnosis of things. We had a contractor that came out for a claim and their service was adequate. The employees were professional and courteous. They repaired a sand filter. After the third repair, the equipment has been operating properly.

He spoke with my wife and cleaned everything that he did which I appreciated. And they told us if we had any problems to give them a call, not to worry, and that they would work it out with American Home Shield in case this one failed. It was very encouraging. It took three days for AHS to decide that they would honor the claim and get it done. We were without hot water for two and a half days. But what can we expect?

The showerhead tripped so it wouldn't stop running. The plumber came over that same day and he took it apart. He figured out the part that needed to be changed. He changed it out and it took him 10 minutes. I also had a claim previously for an AC unit and it took at least a month to get fixed. The technician had to come and send the information about what was wrong with it to American Home Shield. Then American Home Shield had to order the part, and ship it. All that took a month and it was during the summertime. So I wished that it was a speedier thing. Plus, I found out afterward that I had to add another $200 something to pay for the Freon, which I couldn't say no to. So I had to pay $300 something but it was still better than $2,000.

The AC wasn’t cooling. Technicians came and my husband interacted with them. It was a breaker issue that my husband had checked but it didn't completely slip all the way back. He figured it out and he slipped it then it was cool. It was a quick fix. Our AC is working well. The thing with American Home Shield, however, is that they just went ahead and charged me. They didn't let me know the price I was gonna be charged or that there was gonna be 75 or 100 for a person to come out.
Another thing is I like to have options. Before, if you wanted to contact someone in your area, you could choose the options of who you would contact. Now, they choose a contractor for you and that’s who comes out. That's okay. It's just that when I looked up the company they chose for me and it didn't have great reviews, it made me nervous because they had 3 stars at the most. That was not cool. If American Home Shield has people in the area, they can strongly suggest one or they can at least tell you why they chose them like if they were the first ones available. It's something to put my mind at ease, especially if the one they chose doesn't have that great review.

American Home Shield doesn't vet their technicians very well. I keep getting information about services that they didn't perform when they were here. I had just moved into a new place recently and had all four classes of technician out. The technical services have been a mess, except for the key replacement, which was good.
The first instance a contractor came out was with electrical. I called them out for the power not coming on and they said it was the switch. They said they didn't bring any switches with them so they had to order one. But AHS only pays for one trip, which I did not know. It's in their interest to not bring everything they need or possibly could need on the first trip, even something as simple as a switch.
Then, about three days later, I got a call that my warranty claim has been denied. I called AHS and they said they don't replace dimmer switches. I don't need a dimmer switch but they said that it was what was indicated it has to be replaced with. I went back and read my contract and nowhere did it say that I did not have the option of downgrading to their base replacement option. It was an $11 dimmer switch we're talking about here, the regular switch was like $3. I ended up having to escalate it to customer service and they gave me my $100 trip fee back for the electrician.
With the plumber, my sink was stopped up and the garbage disposal wasn't working when he came. The only thing he came in with was a plunger stick and he didn't even have the rubber part. He stuck the stick around in there and it seemed like he stirred it around. There's a motor there and he sort of moved the motor around and got the garbage disposal moving. He heard some rattle in the garbage disposal and then he took some clamps to try to pull any debris out. He said AHS was not going to cover the garbage disposal because there was a foreign object in there. I have to call the plumber back and ask for a different one because he didn't fix anything.
Then, with the air conditioner, there was some older Freon-type material that wasn't in there and it wasn't allowing it to cool. I called the AC people out and they were here from 3:30 until 9:00. The reason for that was they sent an apprentice who was on FaceTime with someone else the entire time. It was clear that he wasn't trained enough to diagnose what was going on on the first try.
After that, they sent someone back a couple of days later, who was remarkably trained and recognized what was going on immediately. However, his goal was to sell me a new system. I had to spend 30 minutes with him about possible fixes versus replacement. Three days passed and I got a call from AHS that my claim had been denied. I called them back and the contractor requested all of this work that wasn't needed to be done. I called the tech back and they worked it out with AHS. They still haven't scheduled to come back yet but it's been approved for the bare minimum.

It took almost six weeks to get a part for a washing machine. I called AHS and told them how ridiculous it was. But they could only get the part at a certain place. All they said was the company they get it from wouldn't be able to get the part 'cause it's back-ordered. I said, "Can't you find somewhere else to get it? They said, "No, ma'am." I was so frustrated about that. But the tech that came was great. He was nice and very professional.

But I had a recent issue with another claim that I just cancelled. I was angry because I had a claim on my dishwasher. I waited and waited for the person to call me, because that's typically what happens. And the claim was submitted to Sears. They usually say if you don't hear from the person, to give them a call. So I called them and they didn't even acknowledge that I had a claim. And then the rep put me on hold and transferred me to American Home Shield. The hold time, especially getting to where AC seasons are coming up and stuff like that, you can really sit on them. I've done it before for 40 minutes.
American Home Shield switched my provider, which is Pro Services, under another name. They have fixed several appliances for me. I didn't realize it was the same company as the one that I had been using prior. I've had fantastic experiences with Pro Services. But the guy at Sears didn't even tell me what he was doing, he just told me to hold. And then he transferred me to AHS. I thought that was so unprofessional, and so against customer service.
So then I get to AHS, and they were like, “Oh, we were supposed to schedule that service.” And I was like, “Well, I'm three days out from when I put in my claim. So why hasn't American Home Shield done this?” And they were like, “Oh, well, we don't know.” Then I had an issue with my washer very recently. I told them I wanted Pro Services to do it and the rep fought me on it. I was like, “You're not assigning this to Sears. Because if you assign this to Sears and I have to deal with that company again, I'm literally going to cancel my policy with you guys and find another service for this. And you guys have the best reputation. But I'm not feeling that right now.”
I was mad because I couldn't pick my service person and because they wanted me to deal with an unprofessional company. I just ended up canceling that claim. I had my uncle come over here and look at my washer to see why it's leaving black marks on my clothes. He said I needed a new seal. So I thought, “Well, let me try it again.” So Sunday, I put in another request, and luckily I was assigned to Pro Services. Finally, she didn't send me to Sears, but she was like, “We'll just have to find another service provider in your area if you're not going to go with Sears.” But I'm not going with Sears. Customer feedback should be most important if they don't want to use a company. And it used to be that we could say, “I've dealt with this person before, I really liked them.” I no longer like the fact that we cannot choose our providers.
The only thing that if I could change I would is it's also problematic when they have to wait for AHS to send them the part. Because that delays how quickly we can get things done, especially if it's an AC unit. And we're sitting here and we're dying, because we have no AC or heat in the wintertime. The wintertime, we can at least do something for it with space heaters. But in the summertime, there's nothing you can do for it.
I didn't have my dishwasher for over a week, maybe more. And it was because the contractor had to wait for AHS to send them the part. Now I'm waiting for AHS to send the contractor the part from my washer. And that could lead me going to the laundromat if it doesn't come soon enough. That's the unfortunate part. Other than that, I've been super lucky in everyone AHS has assigned me except for Sears. I've put in numerous claims in the last three years and I was happy with them.

AHS is very beneficial when we do have something that does break. If you don't have to speak to customer service, you file the claim and you get a response right away. But if you have to replace something, it can be pretty tedious. If you call up their lines to join, you get somebody on the phone right away. But if you have to call in regards to a claim that you've filed, you'll sit on the phone for hours on hold. I have sat on hold for 3 hours and 59 minutes to be exact to try to get through a customer service rep. Recently, one of our outlets have gone out in the kitchen and Advance Electrical came out. We've had the tech before and he was great. We did get our stuff replaced so AHS did what it had to. It just took some more legwork. They could beef up their customer service and try to be more timely in the responses.

American Home Shield had people come out that weren't very good. Now, they've gotten better. I've had contractors come in here that say that they are no longer with American Home Shield because when people need something done badly, they'll try to fix it many times before they will actually replace it. Some people said there were people who had a 30-year-old heater that was just no good, and they said that they couldn't help them. But when I was in Morgan Hill, we put a lot of money into that and they came out. We had some good ones come out in the past, and we had some bad ones.
A lady said that they were gonna call me back to see if American Home Shield could get me a new refrigerator but no one called me back. I had to call back the next day. The refrigerator was too big. They measured it wrong. They couldn't find me a model, so I had to go on my own and find something. Then I'm gonna submit my invoice because they can't help me.

At first, we saw some water in the basement. I called the warranty company. They got me hooked up with somebody that day when we thought it was a basement issue. They said they'll be out next week. It's a little water on concrete so no big deal. Then we traced it back up to the first floor and said it must be coming from there. We thought it was the toilet and we were going to do something with that. It turns out that the hot water knob was broken and the water kept spilling all over the place. We had to cut off the water to the whole house. But we're in the middle of moving and we need access to water.
I called back the warranty company and said that we couldn't wait for next week. We need to have this addressed now. The fellow on the phone said he would find somebody else. He wanted to keep me on the phone while he canceled the old appointment with the first place and look for a new place because the first one was booked up. I was on the phone for 40 minutes trying to wait for him. Finally, I just told him to call me back and he did. He got somebody else to come and the group was perfect. They fixed it and no problem. It was unusual that we had to go to another contractor to do the plumbing work and so I know that we have to reset. I was just not expecting to sit on the phone for an hour while the fellow did that.
Other than that little thing, the process was pretty simple and I was really surprised about it. In terms of what folks need to know, we were like, "We'll take a look at it and do it ourselves 'cause it shouldn't be that big of a deal." But what ultimately made me call was that it could be something much more expensive than we initially thought and I didn't want to get caught up in that.
If you're in doubt, call to have the warranty deal with it rather than dealing with it yourself. The water issue could turn into something bigger. Then understand what's covered under that warranty as primary and secondary. We had some damage to the wall in the basement and they said it wouldn't be covered because that's a secondary issue, so it wasn't the pipe itself that needed to be fixed or the labor to fix that pipe. It was water damage that came from the pipe in another room.

I had someone to come out and he didn't stay long enough to look at everything. I tried to do a follow-up because he got it working but when he left, it seemed like something else was going on. Two weeks later, it started acting up. I tried to do another follow-up and they never got back with me.
I called a rep from American Home Shield to try to see if they could give me a call so we can set up the appointment but they never got back. Long story short, they sent another company to the house which I requested because I was not going to deal with that other company again. The second company explained everything and was on time. The technician told me one of the motors went out. He put freon in my refrigerant in the AC outside and he's going to fix the part on Wednesday. The other company said everything was all good but I knew that something was not right with that. Other than that, I've had a good experience.

It's almost like it's a breakdown on how the companies go about getting their parts, how quickly they get them, and then how quickly they can get back out here.

I called American Home Shield because I am having a leak. And it's a very bad leak under my sink. All of this was the week before Easter. And I've got water all on my floor. I thought it would be the pipe. But it turned out, the guy said I had a bad faucet. The faucet was leaking. There was water coming from the instant hot water thing and from the garbage disposal. He also said that I needed the instant hot thing and a garbage disposal. The guy that came out was extremely nice and moved at a quick pace. And when he left, I was under the impression that he would come back. He said, “We have to get the part, and I'll be back in a day or two.” That's what he said. So, that's what I expected, a day or two.
This is what I learned later. The tech said he wasn't sure whether they were would have the faucet in stock. We had to take a picture of the faucet for the other people back at his place at AZ Plumbing. And because there was no way to notice the brand name on the faucet, it wasn't on there, so he sent pictures. His weren't clear, though. They had me send pictures, so I sent pictures. And the guy had told me that was the faucet, which was the initial thing. He said, “I have to find out they can find this kind, if they can replace it.” A lot of things had to be checked out to see what. And then the other two things, I wasn't aware.
That is when I felt it was taking so long, was because he then told me that. Because the two items, the instant hot and the garbage disposal, were not on the initial request, because I said I was having a leak. The only way I knew to identify the faucet was to say the faucet is leaking because that was all I know. There was water coming out, and that's what I said. So, that's what my claim that they had to check on, the instant hot and the garbage disposal, and get approval. I only found out yesterday that that was the holdup.
I still have to have towels now and I can't run water. And on the one side of the sink, it still leaks when we have to turn the faucet on. And it's my kitchen faucet, so I have to turn it on. I wish AHS would call me with my part because I've been waiting. This is ironic because AZ has been very responsive and it's AHS that has not. I didn't hear anything anymore from anybody. I had to reach out. So, I'm just here with water leaking, so it has not been a pleasant experience. I've got more understanding, clarification, and everything from AZ. The person over the phone was extremely helpful every time. And this was the person who gave me the information on yesterday as to what really was the holdup. It has been AHS.
American Home Shield's process is pretty much automated. And then I just get a person. They assign somebody. So, the understanding of how the process would work had to be explained to me by the contractor. I didn't understand that they were the ones to explain that. They should not start out automated, especially if you're a new customer. And I needed to know how this process would work. AHS kept telling me something about if they didn't have it, I could pay for it upfront, and I would get reimbursed. There were a lot of things that were not explained to me.

I've been happy with American Home Shield. The girl came out to rekey the house. She was wonderful. She found a renegade doorknob that somebody put on. She happened to have a new one in her truck, which was great, put a new one on, rekeyed it, everything was right. I called, a plumber came out, there was a leak under the kitchen sink. And he said that, "Yes, there is a leak." It's not doing real damage right now. It's just leaking from the faucet right onto the ground. It's not getting anything wet but the ground and it's a very slow leak. He's working on the best way to fix that without having to tear up the foundation. And we don't want to do that.
At another time, I couldn't get the dishwasher door to close. I used it once and I couldn't get the latch. I couldn't get it to stay closed. The tech came out and said to make it level, someone jammed a piece of metal in there and it came down where my latch latched inside the dishwasher. He pulled that out, fixed that, leveled the dishwasher, gone. Perfect. The service is 100% beneficial. They rekeyed the house, so I feel secure now. The dishwasher works and I love that. Everything's great.

I submitted a claim for water leaking in the faucet on the kitchen. Even if you turn off the faucet, it was still leaking water. The tech was very professional and very, very knowledgeable. He was very safety-wise because of the COVID-19. So he was pretty good. He wore a mask and took off his shoes. He replaced some of the parts with the brand-new parts but the parts were not yet available for the old one. So he had to replace the whole faucet. My wife is pretty happy with it.

We've only had a couple of occasions to call American Home Shield, and they have responded well. The process works fine as long as I can talk to somebody. Because when I call them, they say, “Your warranty has expired.” “Oh, no, it hasn’t.” I get them on the phone and then it worked fine. The techs have also done what they've come to do and we've been satisfied. They fixed the washing machine the first time. One time, we had a problem with our Trane air conditioner and I told AHS that when I called them, but they sent a non-Trane company out here to fix it. It seemed like an odd thing to do, but maybe they only contract with certain providers. Other than that, everything was fine. The first guy identified the problem but didn't fix it.

I told AHS that I didn't care for the contractors that they were sending before and they sent me over to Walston. They fixed the stoppage and I like them a whole lot better. I did the claim online this time and AHS could put down more things. I had some other issues but they were not listed. I couldn’t put down exactly what was going on because it didn’t have enough for me to choose from. I also had a washer that played out on me and AHS purchased another washer for me.

The customer service was really not professional. There were multiple calls on my end to try to get some type of service done where they failed to send somebody. I had plenty of issues with that alone. But this time around, I was kind of amazed with the actual service that they provided and everything all the way around.

The issue I was having was when we turned the AC on, the cold air wasn't working for hours. Later that night after we'd already made the claim, it started working again. When the tech came and checked it out, he didn't find any evidence of anything. He did say something about the freon maybe being a little bit low and he found a charred wire on the outside unit that he replaced. He did do a thorough walkthrough of it and explained all the different components to me. He explained if it's not having a problem at the time when he comes out, it's hard for him to diagnose what the issue is. The service was great.

Also, I wished the service window was a little smaller. They gave me a four-hour service window for one day. Other than that, the technicians who came fixed everything. I had to call a restoration company that they referred me to in order to open up the wall and get to the plumbing. That was not covered under the warranty.

My HVAC with heat pump was set to A/C at 70 and 97 heat was coming out of the vents. I contacted American Home Shield (AHS) and they quickly assigned Heritage Air and Heat (4414 State Hwy. 276, Rockwall, TX). The technician (Teo) came out and diagnosed the reverse valve had to be replaced and the warranty covered it. However, the R22 (10 lbs) would be only covered at $10 an lb. The charge is $80 an lb and their company assured me that AHS is aware of the upcharge (turns out they hadn't even reached out to AHS to submit the diagnosis, work order, or get authorization for the additional homeowner charges).
Since we are draining all of the freon I asked if R407C could be used instead of R22 since it was $40 an lb and the warranty would cover $10. R22 could cost $700 and R407C would cost $300. They told me that my compressor was not compatible with R407C, therefore we would have to use R22. Then they closed out my ticket marking it complete instead of pending a follow-up.
The reverse valve came in and a different team of technicians (Taylor) came out. I watch them remove the reverse valve, install a new one, pulled out a brand new R407C, and installed the freon. The technician had forgotten his temperature infrared thermometer and said that he would use the feel of his hand to ensure the difference between the supply and return air was sufficient. Luckily I have video cameras on that side of the home, and the only freon container that was plugged into the system was R407C. I contacted Heritage to ask why R407C was used if it's not compatible with my compressor, and why I was charged R22 for R407C. They denied using R407C, and that R22 was installed even after I had shown them the pictures and video clips of R407C being installed. I asked to escalate to a supervisor so that the issue may be resolved and have been ignored since.
The integrity of this business and technicians are questionable. Either the compressor was compatible and Heritage was unethical and wanted to do an upcharge. Or the system was truly not compatible which will cause the gas in the R407C to not link up with the mineral oil in the compressor, which will cause a sludge lubricant inside the circuit. Eventually, the compressor will fail catastrophically and the entire unit will need to be replaced. I have contacted AHS and they are still waiting on the diagnosis and request for authorization.

I got a warranty with the house I bought and it was through American Home Shield. When the one year warranty was up, I extended it because it was very helpful to be able to have someone come out and not pay hundreds and hundreds of dollars to get something fixed. One time, our garage door would go up a bit and then stop then go up a little more and then stop again. I had to keep pressing it and then once I got it up, it wouldn't go back down, so I had to disconnect it. I called American Home Shield on a Saturday and said what I wanted on the automated system. It was very easy. They even took the payment automatically.
The repair person called on Monday and came out the same day. It was very effective. The guy was nice and worked very quickly too. He was done in 10 minutes. He said that something was blown on my garage door opener and that something had to be replaced. He replaced it and it worked fine. It was great. I have no complaints at all. I use the garage door opener every day three times a day and it hurt my heart to have to go and get my key out of my purse and figure out the key to the door.

It went into my son's floor and underneath his wooden floor. 4A came out and disconnected everything, and then ordered the part. They came back five days later and installed the part that we needed for that washer. They were real good. Everything's fine right now. We also filed a claim when our dryer wasn't drying very well. 4A came out again and they did the ductwork and fixed wherever they needed to. Home Shield has been pretty good. I definitely would recommend it.

My thermostat wouldn’t go over 64. The technician came out and checked the furnace. It was some sort of high limit switch that needed to be replaced. He ordered the part then came back a couple days later and fixed it. He seemed to know what he was looking for and was able to diagnose it and repair it.

The servicemen are great but it’s American Home Shield that we have a problem with. I keep having to put Freon on the refrigerator and they choose to keep sending out the repairman. They know it's not going to work but you can't get anywhere with them. The techs do as much quality work as AHS would let them. The tech's hands are tied and they even went back to AHS and said that we needed a new one. I wish there was somebody else but AHS is the best thing out there. If you have newer equipment and you need a repair, they're great.

The pool’s blower motor and the control panel were both broken. I called and the rep from American Home Shield and I selected a date. Then, she said that our man would call us before he arrives. He did and he arrived on time. He was a nice guy and very professional. He knew what to do and was very knowledgeable on the pool heater. He ordered a new blower motor and when it came in, he called us and came over and installed it. He's trying to find the control panel that will fit in to match the old one but the pool heater has been working great. We were able to use our pool when we wanted to and we used it over the weekend.

The microwave’s fan kept running and there was no way for us to turn it off. I didn’t see any smoke but it was giving us a funny smell. It was more of an electrical one. The agent from American Home Shield was professional and gave me the name of the company that was coming. She told me that they were going to get back in contact with me.

The repair guy was very professional and he explained about my overall process that he was gonna do and how he was gonna do it as well as what the next step would be if it didn't work. But I didn't like that he lied about the 10-foot rule.
First, it was a text and then, it was a phone call stating that I had to wear a mask, which I already know is required. He would be wearing a mask and gloves, which is professional on that standard. But to tell me that with the CDC, it’s a 10-foot rule, I didn't accept that because that's a lot. Also, I haven't even had a follow-up from American Home Shield as of today.

There were two claims that we used American Home Shield for and both were plumbing clogs. We thought we had a crushed pipe under the slab because we had bad contractors tell us what it was, and then following that, K & S Plumbing came and ran a cleaner the first time. That didn't get it cleaned enough. Then the second clog that happened just recently, K & S sent Jody out, and he ran a bigger, stronger cleaner. There's been a little bit of slow water running, but we've just been running degreasing materials down the sink. When they ran the camera for us, the pipes were pretty greased up. It'll be a little bit of a long road. K & S Plumbing was amazing. Even once the warranty wears off, I'm going to keep using them as my plumber.

I have an issue with my microwave and I'm kind of upset about it. I had Bay to Bay come out twice to fix it and they replaced a few capacitors or resistors. The first time, it only worked for a week. Then they came back and they replaced some more. It worked for two or three months. When I put in a request again, it wanted me to pay. AHS said after two months, I have to pay again. So, if this thing goes out every three months, I have to pay $100 every three months then. That’s too much. I will be paying more than what the microwave is worth. It just needs to be replaced. But other than that, it was great with Integrity Air who came out for our AC claim. The tech knew what he was doing. He replaced the capacitor and it's been functioning great since.

I was not too happy with AHS in the past. When I moved over here a year and a half ago, I have not been in this house for three months and I had static problems. Ao then AHS recommended after this first company came five times. And then I said, “I want a second opinion.” They then sent me another company. And then the first thing he said was, “This bathroom is wrong. The tank is larger than the base.” That was why the water always came up, because the tank is larger. So, he sent a claim to AHS, but they said no. I went back and forth and I was so frustrated with AHS that I was ready to change companies. After I don't know how many calls I made, they finally authorized the gentleman to replace the toilet. I'm back for several months now.
I have two sinks in the master bedroom, one across from the other. They have been running very slow and one was clogged in. I put vinegar, baking soda, I used the plunger, nothing happened. It was stuck. And then in my bathroom, the shower has also been running slow. We have tried to unclog it, so sometimes I had to use the plunger several times.
I called the number and told American Home Shield all these things that needed to be checked. I responded to the questions that they had. And they said, “Okay. We'll call these people.” The first one, I was not too happy with it because he suggested to put acid, and I said, “I'm not going to put acid in my house because the city told us not to put any hard chemicals released in it.” The third plumber came in, took out the metal thing underneath the sink and it was clogged with black hair. He showed me, and I said, “Oh my God, that's not my hair. My hair is gray.” He said, “Yeah, this has been over here for a long, long time.” This house is 21 years old. It has been over there who knows for how long. I moved to this house about a year plus. I know it was not mine, but he cleaned. My sink runs perfectly. I opened the water and I could hear it running. He did an excellent job. He was thorough, fast, and detailed. The best contractor that AHS has ever sent to me.

I used the previous home warranty company at my old house, and they were horrible. The difference between American Home Shield and them is night and day. It took eight days from when I filed a claim for a washer to get a replacement. With the old company, it took us nine months and we were without a washer that whole time. I cannot be happier with how it's going with American Home Shield. When we submit claims, we get a status right away. We know who's assigned. They usually get in touch with us right away, and they come right out. We don't have to wait much for anything. I've filed three claims so far, and we’re very happy.
We had a strange situation where I noticed the leaking pipes, and I was gonna call my regular plumber, but when I went to file the claim for the washer, I saw that I could also file one for the pipes. I said, “Oh, let me just put this through the warranty company before calling my regular guy.” The plumber came out, and he was great. He pointed out exactly what it was he needed to do. Because of the way that the house was set up, he pointed out that there may be some issues and that he also had another commitment that he might have to go out and deal with. He did a fantastic job. He pointed out some things too with the shower, to get some support under there, which I was able to do after he left. I was very happy with his work.
No one should buy a house without buying a home warranty. I know someone who bought a house in the last year and he didn't get a home warranty. When their water heater went, it cost them 10 grand to get it replaced. I recommend American Home Shield to everybody. A friend of mine is selling his house and buying another.

Taking care of our members is the main goal here at AHS. I am glad that you were happy with the work done. We look forward to servicing you in the future as needed. Enjoy your day.

The handle wasn't turning all the way when we went to go try it. Then right after the plumber left, we realized that there wasn't any hot water. I talked to my brother who was a plumber but lives in Chicago and he said it was probably the cartridge that they put in and something wasn't either pulled or turned. Then that was pretty much what the plumber guy said when he was here again. So, he said it was turned correctly then. Before he left, the second time, I tried it and the water was extremely hot like the way it was.
Thanks for sharing your warranty experience. Please let us know if you need if you need assistance. Have an amazing week.

I've had two service requests to American Home Shield since I've been with them. One was for my dryer because it wasn't heating. The second one was for a toilet that was low-flowing. I did those requests online. It seemed like there was a drop-down menu based on the type of problems on their website. So, it's very organized. The plumber was exceptionally nice. He let me know that I could go to Home Depot and use the same tool that he was using in the future. So, he was very helpful. The dryer guy was really kind and personable. They wore their PPE, which was nice. I'm pleased thus far with AHS.
Our main objective is to provide exceptional service and a quick resolution to all of your home warranty needs. Your feedback regarding your recent experiences with us is greatly appreciated. We look forward to servicing you in the future as needed. Take Care.

My freezer was leaking water into the refrigerator. The tech was wonderful. He wore a mask and stayed distant. I would Choose American Home Shield again.

We've had a couple different companies when it comes to plumbing but my wife liked Professional Plumbing Service. They came for the garbage disposal. The tech was quick and well so we appreciated that. My wife was on her own and they did a good job with that. AHS has been up to par with what I'd expect. But if they can make the process easy for the bigger stuff like the furnace and the AC instead of having to wait for parts and pieces and trying to mend it together, that would be nice. Those issues go down with a little tougher to swallow length of time sometimes.
Tyler,

My refrigerator was making an ungodly noise. It got progressively loud to the point that it was waking people up and we eventually unplugged the refrigerator. When the service guy got here, the contraption that keeps the coolant working builds up ice. There's a fan down there and the fan blades were hitting the ice, and then hitting the ice that long broke the fan. Since the fan was damaged, the guy first thawed all the ice and then replaced the fan in there. He thought as far as what made the whole thing happen was when the people who were here before me unplugged it, and then I plugged it back in and got things moving again, that the refrigerator had to do ice and water filter. It just went overboard and built up this ice layer and then the fan thing. At first, I noticed it, and then it kind of got better, and then it got worse, and then it got really loud. The guy fixed it and now, it's super quiet.
As far as the claim submission to American Home Shield, I went online and clicked the instructions and paid the 100 bucks. When I called there the first time, the lady said, "Oh, we don't have anything for a couple of weeks." I was like, "Oh, my gosh, I don't know if my freezer is gonna last that long. I'm not really sure what's going on." She put me on hold, promised to call me back in a few minutes, and she squeezed in a same day appointment. She said, "I happen to call one of my techs and he's going to be out in your area and he had a cancellation so we'll come out today." She went the extra mile for me and didn't have to. She made things happen for me because I was super worried about losing all of my groceries. I really appreciated what she did.

I have issues with American Home Shield, but I need the warranty because repairs are expensive. It's ** service. I can't stand it. For their online requests for service, they should add a section where people can add special instructions because people request it and then AHS automatically assigns them a contractor. It is hard to get in contact with anyone. The wait times on the phone are forever.
I've had prior plumbing problems where certain contractors that they always assign are no good. I want to be able to intercept the assignment but they always assigned to the same contractor, unless I wait 45 minutes to tell them physically and elevate to the manager to not send it to someone. Plumbing is a lot of work. It took me forever to get my money refunded because they still send me the same plumber who kept saying there was nothing wrong. When I demanded a different plumber, I still got charged a third time for the different plumber who then fixed it. The first plumber was wrong all along.
It was the same thing with the air conditioning service where I had issues with the air conditioning folks. They came out three times. They said they fixed it, and they didn't. I had to wait over an hour to get a manager on the phone to specifically request a different AC contractor who then fixed it in five minutes, just because apparently, the fan was going in reverse. The other guys couldn't figure that out. I lose $106 every time someone comes out, so I hate American Home Shield. On the flip side, when they pay for stuff, it saves me money, so I can't complain too much.
Are you still in need of assistance?

American Home Shield has been responsive. Scheduling has been quick and all of our problems so far have been resolved without too much of a fight. We recently had a plumbing issue and it went well. Valley Plumbing and Heating was the contractor. They were out here twice and they seemed to do a good job.

We bought a house that came with Home Shield warranty. My experience has been easy from start to finish. Getting the claim submitted and getting people out to schedule with me for a time to come out and do the repairs were really easy. We had a leaking toilet. I wanted to check the water pressure of the house too, to make sure it wasn't something wrong with the pump system because we have a well. The guy who came was fantastic. He gave me an education on a lot of things down there. We had never had a home with a well, and he was describing potential problems that I need to look for. He was also telling me how parts of the system worked. Because we had water softener, we've never had one of those. There were a lot of things he went over with me. He showed me a lot of things with that system that I didn't have any knowledge of. Then he also repaired the toilet, which was quick.
Thank you for sharing your recent experiences with us. We are working diligently to improve the overall member experience and we look forward to our continued business together. Have a great day.
