Coverage Options - 3.5 / 5

Landmark’s coverage varies by state. Furthermore, there are two plan categories depending on the customer's situation. The Homeowner Plan is for those who have already owned their house for 30 days. The Real Estate Plan is for new home purchase. The following details regarding coverage and pricing will be examples of the Homeowner Plan. For details on plans associated with new home purchase, which are more comprehensive and varied, we suggest you visit Landmark's website and see what they will provide that is specific to the state you live. Landmark's Homeowner coverage is divided into two different plans, the Home Systems Plan, and the Total Protection Plan. The Systems covers services like A/C and Heating Pre-Season Tune-up and pest control, comprehensive AC and heater coverage, electrical systems, and plumbing. Total Protection includes all of these plus appliances.

Contract & Price - 3 / 5

Like the service fee, Landmark's yearly premium for its Homeowner Plans varies by state. In Utah, Oregon, and Idaho, choosing the $100 service fee will produce a $350 premium for the Home System Plan, and a $600 premium for the Total Protection Plan. If you were to opt for the $60 service fee, this would increase the Home System Plan premium to $400, and the Total Protection Plan to $650. In Texas, Nevada, and Arizona, the $100 service fee will yield a $360 premium for the Home Systems Plan, and a $610 premium for the Total Protection Plan. Finally, in these states, choosing the $70 service fee will cost $425 for the Home Systems Plan and $675 for Total Protection. Landmark has an online quote calculator available on their website, for customers who'd like more specifics. If the policyholder chooses to cancel, Landmark offers a 30-day, full money-back guarantee, with the exception of a $40 administration fee.

I had a terrible experience with Landmark. I called because I was having issues with my faucet, I asked if the service fee ($70) covered the FULL replacement of my faucet and the labor. They responded yes. When the plumber came out, he took one look at the faucet and said it needs to be replaced. He said there is nothing he could do that day, he would have to submit a report to get the warranty company to authorize the replacement. He said we had two options the warranty company would either give the plumber $20 to buy a cheap faucet or we could get the warranty company to cash out the faucet and we could take that money to put towards a better faucet. When I talk to the Landmark... Read More

Literally have been lied to the second I purchased Landmark's "warranty." It covers next to nothing, saddles the customer with the cost, and is a quick cash grab to see how long it takes for a customer to realize they've been duped. If you're a consumer. Don't listen to what your agent says. Avoid this company like the plague.

Only reason I did half a star is it would not let me rate Landmark as no stars. For over a year we have been working with Landmark after one of their contractors did a poor job on our air conoditing unit (which was new) and our furnace. Our furnace was so damaged by their contractors that we got a new one which again was not installed correctly. We went all last summer having to run window air contioning units that we had to purchase to make our house bearable to live it for our young child. We went without heat in the winter. We were lucky we had a pallet stove to fall back on. Sorry is no longer enough from this warranty company and the low quality contractors they use in Idaho.... Read More

If Landmark Home Warranty is "premiere" this must be a sucky industry! This service is a rip off. The only reason I have it is that my real estate agent wrote it into the contact for the seller to pay for. The warranty covers NOTHING. Their special services are rip offs! Pay Landmark another $60, and their contractor will come rekey your house. It costs $60 or less from any reputable key smith. Pay Landmark $60 and they'll have your furnace cleaned and inspected ($60 more for the AC). Reputable local contractors offer the same service for $49. All I can figure is that the real estate agents are getting kick backs from Landmark.

Kirk, Thank you for taking the time to rate and review us. We appreciate your feedback and take it very seriously. I am sorry to hear of your experience. If you wish to have the warranty assist you on coverage, a service request would need to be opened. The service call fee is due for every service request needed. It is ultimately your decision on how you would like to move forward on repairs for your home. You are more than welcome to use your own contractor at your own expense. However, the warranty will not reimburse for work that is done outside of the guidelines. I would be more than happy to assist you and address your concerns more appropriately. You can reach me directly at customerrelations@landmarkhw.com. Respectfully, Tiffany Nguyen Customer Relations Manager

I filled my Garage Claim online, was contacted within the hour, appointment from the Contractor was made for the following day. The Tech was running behind, but when he showed up, had it fixed within less than 30 minutes. Excellent Service.

I have extremely positive experiences with Landmark Home Warranty, on multiple occasions. When a service is required, they make it clear on the eligibility and once eligible, the process is a breeze. They follow up multiple times, both on emails and over emails, till the service company has responded to the service dispatch and has completed the work to our satisfaction. Cannot ask for anything more.
