Common home repairs covered in Wisconsin
Congratulations on becoming a Wisconsin homeowner! Whether you’ve built your home from the ground up or just purchased your dream house, homeownership is an achievement worth celebrating. However, it also comes with its share of responsibilities. Appliances or home systems inevitably wear down over time.
HVAC repairs: Your heating and cooling systems are essential when it comes to being comfortable in your home. With a home warranty plan, you can make sure your furnace and/or air conditioning gets fixed quickly if failure is due to normal wear and tear.
Electrical system repairs: Electrical systems are another common source of trouble. Complicated and potentially hazardous, these systems often require professional repairs for issues like faulty wiring, circuit breakers or fuses.
Home warranty coverage in Wisconsin: What your plan should include
Given Wisconsin’s extreme seasonal climates, ensure your home warranty includes HVAC coverage. This will protect against costly heating or cooling issues when you need these systems the most. Additionally, consider a plan that covers the household appliances essential to your daily life, such as:
- Refrigerators
- Dishwashers
- Washers and dryers
- Microwaves

Frequently asked questions
When can you buy a home warranty in Wisconsin?
In Wisconsin, you can buy a home warranty at any time, regardles of the age of your home or how long you've lived there.
What is a home warranty?

How long does a home warranty last in Wisconsin?

Which Wisconsin home warranty covers the most?

Is there a difference between homeowners insurance and a home warranty in Wisconsin?
Yes, there’s an easy way to explain the difference between homeowners insurance and a home warranty. Homeowners insurance covers catastrophic, unforeseen events such as accidents and fires. Home warranty protection, on the other hand, covers the appliances and systems in your home that fail due to normal wear and tear.

Essentially, the home warranty helps protect the seller from unexpected repair costs if a covered item breaks down while the house is on the market.
How can you renew your home warranty in Wisconsin?
With most home warranty companies in Wisconsin, you'll be notified in advance whether you need to renew, or if you're already on an automatically renewing plan, you'll also be notified of any rate and/or coverage changes, no less than 30 days before your current agreement expires.

I am very happy with Cinch. Submitting a claim with Cinch was straightforward; they sent someone out quickly. The service was much faster compared to other home warranties I've previously used. Their quick and efficient service stands out. My granddaughter submitted the claim online, and they called me soon after to set up an appointment. The tech arrived the next day, which was very convenient.
I haven't had many claims, but the one experience I had was handled swiftly and met my expectations. I rate my experience with Cinch as fabulous. Their customer service is excellent, as are the services they provide.
Cinch takes care of the customer when there's a problem. The person they decide to use follows up and texts you every step. They have good customer service and always present themselves well. Whenever you have a question, they're always there to answer it. Recently, my water heater was leaking. It couldn't be fixed so it had to be replaced. If I know somebody's looking for a home warranty, I always tell them about Cinch Home Services. They're wonderful. You don't have to go out there and look for anyone to fix anything for you ‘cause they got your back.
My experience when submitting a claim was very seamless and effortless. The tech who came knew what the issue was with the heater immediately and he ordered the fan motor. They had it the next morning and he came and put it in the next morning. It was during the winter when I didn't have heat because of it and they were really fast and on the ball.
