Home Emergency Insurance Relaunches Protection Plans in California

HomeServe USA’s subsidiary Home Emergency Insurance Solutions is relaunching its optional Water Service Line Insurance plans as home protection plans to more than 425,000 households across the state of California. A mailing outlining the new benefits of the Plans has been delivered to homeowners throughout the state.

HomeServe is relaunching in California in light of changes approved in a recent filing with the California Department of Insurance that allow it to offer California homeowners more simplified plans with less exclusions, and also transition from insurance coverage to home protection plans.

The plans will be offered to new customers, as well as to current insurance holders upon renewal.

HEIS is already an insurance provider to more than 213,000 homeowners in California. Those plans, such as Water Line Service, Sewer Line Service, Interior Plumbing and Drainage, help residents manage repairs that are not typically covered by homeowners insurance. When a repair is needed, HomeServe works with a network of local, licensed and insured California-based technicians, and covers the costs under the plans.

HomeServe’s new Water Service Line Plan for California homeowners provides guaranteed repairs up to $12,000 in coverage annually for $4.95 per month, and allows for unlimited service calls.
