You can choose from three different plans including a package that covers appliances, a package that covers built-in systems, or a package that covers both giving you total home protection.

Not to worry if your services break down, as Cinch’s network of service pros is located nationwide. They can make sure your home systems and appliances function again quickly.

Word on the Street

The majority of people have nothing but great things to say about Cinch! Let’s take a look at what others are saying:

Heather, Trustpilot

My garage door wouldn't open the morning that we were set to leave for vacation. Such a bad way to start a vacation!! I knew that I had a home warranty so I didn't worry too much, on the way back, I submitted the claim via my phone (from the airport) and the technician reached out quickly to confirm the appointment. I thought it would just be something small, maybe the door needed an adjustment or something but no, the motor needed to be replaced! The tech told me that it normally costs about $900 parts and labor to fix, I only had to pay my $135 deductible. They had the part in stock, sent a guy out the next day to fix it, took him about 45 minutes and we are back in business.

Beth, Better Business Bureau

Excellent customer service! The Company is really concerned that you are satisfied with your service work!

Cathy, Consumer Affairs

I've been with Cinch for 15 years. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. When I get things broken down in my house, it gets fixed as soon as they do. They have met all my expectations. My air conditioning went out. My refrigerator also went out about five times. It’s just been amazing for me. When I make a call, the service is fast. They get people here and so far, they've been reliable and professional companies. Their price is also decent. I would definitely recommend Cinch to people.

The Bottom Line

Cinch Home Services offers affordable home warranty plans with a 180-day workmanship guarantee.
