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.

If listing coverage is cancelled after service has been performed, and the contract fee has not yet been paid, contract holder will be responsible for purchase of contract, or reimbursement to LHW of service costs incurred, whichever is less. c) Cancellation may be made by Contract Holder at any time. If cancelled within 30 days of acceptance of LHW, and no service request has been made, the Contract Holder is entitled to a full refund of the contract proceeds less an administrative fee of $40.

Landmark offers two service fees. Choosing the lower price will result in a higher yearly premium. The minimum service fee is $60 (Utah, Oregon, Idaho) or $70 (Texas, Nevada, Arizona). The maximum service fee for all states is $100. Without the need for maintenance records or a waiting period, this company’s 24/7 claims department is always ready to dispatch one of its many in-network contractors. Landmark also allows for the hiring of outside operators, provided that they meet pre-specified requirements.

We've been with landmark for 4 yrs now and we have tried to have 4 different claims made older home, basically one a yr. All 4 unsuccessful. One ac, our heater, pipe busted and oven. They will usually say they don't have someone in our area to assist or send some young kid who doesn't even thoroughly look at the problem. What?!!! We are going to change companies. Super frustrated and disappointed.

I cannot recommend this home warranty!! They have gone down hill on their customer service .. pretty much in the mud. Every time I call it’s a good 15mins + on hold. And then I get dropped. Because they’re outsourced to the Philippines! (I called American Shield while standing in the same spot and had no problems ) They used to be easy to talk to someone from utah . Now it’s a good afternoon to try to resolve anything . Because every phone call (15+holding) is a different person that doesn’t know what’s going on but from notes. My ac busted when I turned it on the first time this season and say they’re only covering a coil. And my cost is $2376. Contractor said the coils can’t be... Read More

I called Landmark for an upstairs leaking toilet. The response was polite and quick with the work being performed quickly and professionally. I am pleasantly surprised. No hoops to jump through, no stress and just as important - no mess. Well done Landmark Home Warranty.

This is fake warranty is a scam. My refrigerator broke. The contract requires LHW to either repair or replace the refrigerator, up to $1,500, which is about what a new replacement refrigerator would cost. Instead, they offered me $127.00 to replace a broken part. LHW is clearly violating the contract. Don't buy this warranty. Landmark won't pay what they clearly owe.

I have been a landmark home warranty customer for over 4 years and have been very satisfied with their service. I have had to use them several times, and have been happy with the results. They are one of the best home warranty companies out there.

After a month of back and forth, Tiffany (representative from Landmark) said they would cover the cost of the parts, only if I bought an ADDITIONAL year of home warranty. In order to cover the repair costs of a previous warranty contract, I had to pay them $680 for another year. Beware of this company.

Dear John, Your service request was denied due to a pre-existing issue and would not be covered under the warranty. At this time, the warranty cannot provide any further assistance with an inactive account. I have offered to step outside of the warranty to better assist your needs in return for another opportunity to provide you service. Sincerely, Tiffany Nguyen Customer Relations Manager customerrelations@landmarkhw.com
