• Is it worth getting water and sewer line insurance together?

  No one can predict when a water service line or sewer line may fail. With 42% of the homes in the U.S. built 50 or more years ago, these service lines are working on borrowed time. There are numerous factors that can cause water and sewer service lines to fail. The type of piping material, age of the service pipe, soil conditions and installation quality can all be factors. A study published in the September 2017 Journal of the AWWA found that failures in water pipes occur most often in homes between the age of 30 and 60 years old. With the median age of homes in the U.S. being 44 years, the threat of water service line and sewer line failure is a major concern for many homeowners. So, it can be a smart decision to be prepared by having both water line and sewer line repair plans in place before a breakdown happens.

• What plans from HomeServe cover plumbing?

  Depending on the plumbing plan you choose, a plan from HomeServe can cover major components and parts of your plumbing and drainage system, including:

  • Sewer or septic line repair
  • Exterior water service line repair
  • Clogged toilets, sinks and drains
  • Leaking supply pipe to hot water heater
  • Repair or replace burst interior water pipe
  • Pipe replacement or repair

  There’s no need to DIY a covered water leak or clogged drain when you have a plan from HomeServe. HomeServe will send a local, licensed and insured technician right to your doorstep to handle your covered repair.

  HomeServe’s emergency repair hotline is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays. In the event of a home emergency, the homeowner calls the toll-free hotline 1-855-336-2465 and a local, licensed and insured technician is dispatched to make the covered repair or replacement. HomeServe pays the technician directly.
