Originally, my home warranty company sent out Comfort Star to find and fix a Freon leak on a Wednesday. To my amazement, the Comfort Star offices called me within an hour of the home warranty order being put out and said they had an opening that afternoon. Awesome! Oscar came out and was very nice, helpful, and thorough, and took the time to help me understand what he was doing.
In addition to identifying the Freon leak issue, due to our conversation about how wacky the A/C had been since we moved into the house, unlike the other two A/C repairmen that had been out over the past 6 months, he started poking around to see what else wasn't working and might be causing the A/C problems. After a lot of testing, up and down the stairs, etc. he realized that the zoning wasn't working how it should be and we were getting air in zone 1 even if it was off. Once it was identified that the damper was not closing all the way, he left and reported back to the home warranty that the coil needed to be replaced due to the leak (I'd end up having to pay $260 out of pocket) and the damper wasn't working properly.
Unfortunately the damper wasn't covered by my home warranty, but Habib the owner of Comfort Star got me a quote within 24 hours. Due to the needing to come in to the distributor, I didn't think the work would get done that week, but this seems normal. On Friday, to my delight, the Comfort Star offices called to say they had the coil in and had an opening to come that afternoon. Awesome! - but what about the add-on damper project that we had agreed upon the night before. Would those parts be ready, could it really be done 2 1/2 days after finding the original problem? Yes - they came that afternoon and did both the home warranty and add-on project.
For the first time in 8 months of living in our home, the A/C system is actually working how it is supposed to! Comfort Star was easy to work with, very responsive, and had availability to get the job done fast. Let's just say when the home warranty company sends someone out, the expectation bar is low but my husband and I were wow-ed all the way through. Comfort Star really delivered and I'd definitely recommend!

Reliable and transparent First Premier Home Warranty is the best investment we made for our home's well being.
Plumber quickly diagnosed the problem but said he did not know the make and model to replace the part that was broken. I got the make and model information for him but he then said they would not order any parts and that I needed to find them online or buy them from a plumbing store myself....

FAQs for home warranty projects in Houston, TX
Many benefits come with buying a home warranty when selling your home, but there are drawbacks to consider, too.
Pros
Peace of mind of home repair coverage
Incentive for buyers
Transferability to new owners
Prevent post-sale issues
Cons
Expensive cost
Exclusions of certain features or appliances
Coverage limits
Often difficult to understand
Potential wait for claim service
On average, a home warranty costs about $1,100, ranging from $80 to $8,300, depending on your home size and its features, type of home warranty plan, and the coverage included. Your home’s location also factors into the cost of a home warranty, with areas with a higher cost of living experiencing increased warranty costs.
Additional cost to consider include:
Deductibles: $75–$125 per call
Add-ons: $2–$35 per month
Premiums: $200–$1,200 per year
Several factors make a home warranty worth it or not, especially the age of your home and the condition and age of the appliances in it. If you buy an older home with most or all original appliances, a warranty may be worth the investment as these home features are more likely to need repairs or replacements. However, if you’re buying a new-construction home, a warranty may already be included, and you may not need to use it for several years. In this case, purchasing add-ons may not be worth the cost until a few years later.
Offering a home warranty when selling can make your property more appealing to potential buyers. The warranty gives them peace of mind that many systems or appliances will be covered if they need to be repaired or replaced in the near future. Additionally, the home warranty may cover problems that arise during the home sale, such as a leaky roof or water in the basement.
The main types of home warranties cover the basic essentials, but additional plan types focus on specific areas such as:
Appliance plan: This plan covers typical household appliances like refrigerators, stoves, washer and dryer, built-in microwaves, and dishwashers. It costs $360 and $540 per year.
System plan: Costing between $360 and $540 per year, this plan covers central home systems like HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and water heaters.
Combination plan: This plan type covers both systems and appliances, costing between $545 and $1,500.
