First American Home Warranty

First American Home Warranty is a home service contract provider that helps cover the cost of repairing or replacing covered major systems and appliances when they break down from normal use. It is designed to reduce surprise repair bills for homeowners.

How it works

Choose a plan and optional add-ons during sign-up. When a covered item fails, request service online or by phone, pay a flat service fee, and First American dispatches a pre-screened contractor. Covered repairs or replacements are handled through the provider network.
