"The person performing the service had to make several trips because one of the "new" parts turned out to be faulty. I found both Complete Protection and their local repair contractor to be both very responsive and totally professional at every stage of the repair process."

Sunrun is leading the charge to create a planet run by the sun. We are building a more sustainable world, by making solar simple for over 200,000 customer's in 23 different states!

"Sunrun installed a bad roof on my house. After many months of emails and phone calls, they never sent out a repair man. Finally, under duress, I signed a form from Sunrun to use my own contractor. I signed under duress because they said they couldn't get a repair man and that this was the only way I could get my roof repaired, and there were driving rains. I told I didn't want to be personally responsible, and that's only thing I asked. But after the contractor fixed the leaks, there was more hidden damage that emerged and more leaks. They told me they won't fix the roof. The bad roof they installed was so bad that one company wanted to charge me $23,000 to fix it. He said the roof was so bad that really it should be replaced. And boy, when he looked at it, he sneered in disgust. Why did they not simply repair the roof after the first phone call. Eventually, they sent me an email with lies, such as "since the roof no longer has a running leak, Sunrun is not responsible for a repair." A blatant lie. I assumed this was an underhanded tactic written by a lawyer to fool the court in the event of a lawsuit. I thought Sunrun was a legitimate company. Even the Sunrun claims manager apologized to me for my treatment, and she said the higher ups were orchestrating everything. She seemed to be trapped in an immoral circumstance because the bosses simply wanted to get out of paying for that roof at all costs. Even from the beginning, they continually tried to get me to "work " with their contractor. They said they couldn't find the contractor and only that particular contractor could fix the roof. Why were they telling me all this. I told Sunrun, that I purchased the roof from them and to leave me out of such conversations. I truly feel this matter is about greed and avoiding the cost of their damage. They have a lot excuses, but I felt from the beginning, everything was a dodge or a put off. It's been two years and my roof still leaks. This is so cruel. I'm a senior citizen. The stress has been affecting my health and making me I'll."

At BPG, we believe home inspections shouldn't end at the driveway. Our inspectors and engineers undergo thorough background checks and must meet ongoing training and performance standards -- they are a selective group of professionals.With so many inspection companies to choose from, how do you select one that fits your needs? We've earned a solid reputation for standing behind our work and providing distinct value advantages that help protect our clients.

"BPG Inspections Failed to Honor Their Guarantee or Take Accountability Summary: In my experience, BPG Inspections failed to uphold their guarantee, and I encountered poor follow-up and vague, shifting justifications for denying my claim. Details: I hired BPG Inspections in Pensacola, FL, to inspect a home I purchased in April. The inspection occurred in March, and I moved in during May. Within a few days of moving in – well within the 90-day warranty period – I discovered two issues that the inspection report had explicitly marked as functional: 1. The garbage disposal unit did not work (it made a soft noise but did not function). 2. The HVAC system failed to deliver air to the kitchen and adjacent bedroom, though the inspection report had indicated the air handling was operational and in good condition. I promptly emailed BPG about these problems, and while the inspector initially responded, I was then passed to their claims department. After repeated follow-ups, I finally received a call on June 23rd – nearly a month after reporting the issue – only to be told that neither issue was covered under their warranty. I raised the following concerns: 1. For the HVAC, the inspector had confirmed it was functional in an email, contradicting the claims department's later justification that it could not be tested. If no air reaches two rooms, it should have been evident during either heating or cooling tests – this was missed. 2. For the garbage disposal, I was told it was a "kitchen appliance" and therefore not covered, despite it being a fixture included in inspections. When I asked where the warranty excluded it, I received inconsistent explanations. At no point did the company offer to re-inspect or further investigate these issues. I expected more accountability from a professional inspection service – especially one offering a guarantee."

FAQs for home warranty projects in Santa Barbara, CA

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.
