We called Mike's Plumbing but they didn't have any appointments available until Monday the 14th. They scheduled a service call in case we couldn't find another plumber to fix the hot water heater before the weekend. On Wednesday the 9th we called All Valley Plumbing and AC Co. and spoke to Yoli. She scheduled Saul for the next day to diagnose and possibly fix the problem. Yoli called on Thursday morning to let us know Saul was on his way. Saul should up within the 30-minute time Yoli said he would. He determined the electronic part that controls the power and heating elements was out and called Rheem to order the part and have it sent to us at home. Saul gave us an invoice for $0.00 since this was covered under Rheem's warranty. Today, Friday the 11th, the part arrived before 1 pm. We called Yoli and she scheduled Saul to come back to our house within an hour. Saul showed up within an hour of our call and replaced the bad part, flipped on the breaker and hot water heaters power LED came on. Saul gave us a second invoice, again for $0.00 since this was also covered under Rheem's warranty. Yoli and Saul were both friendly and professional. We would definitely call All Valley Plumbing and AC Co. again if needed.

"Landmark Uses Disreputable Contractors ? AZA Repair & Brenovations HVAC Are the Worst
Landmark sent AZA Repair for my refrigerator, and they left it worse than before?still not working, scorch marks from a blowtorch, copper lines sticking out, tools and oil left behind, and no receipt. Then Landmark sent Brenovations HVAC for an AC motor replacement, and that turned into exposed wires, bolts hitting fan blades, missing parts, and complete disregard for safety near my kids? play area. Both companies were unprofessional, negligent, and refused accountability. Landmark?s use of these contractors makes me seriously question the value of having a home warranty at all."

FAQs for home warranty projects in Brownsville, 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.
