Common home repairs in The Sunflower State that can be covered

Breakdowns of home systems and appliances are a part of home ownership. Here are some of the systems and appliances most commonly needing repair in the Sunflower State.

HVAC failures

With high summer temperatures and below-freezing winters, your HVAC system works hard year-round. Constant use can lead to a breakdown, which can mean expensive repairs if you don’t have coverage.

Household appliances

Appliances like refrigerators, washing machines and dishwashers are essential for daily life. The average cost of repairs for these items can reach hundreds of dollars. A home warranty provides peace of mind by helping shield you from these unexpected costs.

With coverage, you can avoid the hassle of finding reliable local technicians. Instead, your home warranty provider will send qualified professionals to handle any breakdowns, saving you time and money.

Home warranty coverage: What should your plan include in Kansas? 

Flexibility

When it comes time to review your plans, make sure you choose a plan that gives you the flexibility to add coverage as needed. For instance, if your plan doesn't include coverage for pools and you decide to add one, you should be able to supplement your plan to get coverage. Make sure you ask as many questions as needed until you’re comfortable with the plan you choose.

Affordability

While a home warranty plan is an excellent way to save money on unexpected repairs, it’s also smart to choose an affordable company. Not all monthly payments are created equally. Do yourself a favor and shop around until you find a reputable home warranty company that fits your budget.

The coverage you need

While flexibility and affordability are great in any home warranty plan, it always comes down to coverage. If you only have a plan that covers your dishwasher, washer, dryer and other household appliances, what will you do when your A/C or furnace stops working? Invest in a plan that gives you the coverage you need — especially if you have an older home with old appliances and systems.

Frequently asked questions

 

When can you buy a home warranty in Kansas?

In Kansas, you can buy a home warranty at any time, regardless of the age of your home or how long you've lived there.

What is a home warranty?

A home warranty is a service agreement between a homeowner and a company that states the terms under which the company will help cover the repair costs of home systems and appliances for a given period.

How long does a home warranty last in Kansas?

The typical length of a home warranty agreement in Kansas is one year.

Which Kansas home warranty covers the most?

This depends on your specific plan with the home warranty company you select.

Is there a difference between homeowners insurance and a home warranty in Kansas?

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. When things such as your HVAC or refrigerator stop working due to normal wear and tear, a home warranty plan may make it easier (and cheaper) to repair or replace them.

Is a home warranty required in Kansas?

No, home warranties are not required in Kansas.

Who pays for the home warranty at closing?

In real estate, a home warranty can be paid for by the buyer or the seller at closing. For the seller, paying for a home warranty can make the property seem more appealing and help reduce the cost of repairs while the home is on the market. From the buyer's perspective, having a home warranty can provide peace of mind when moving in — especially if they purchase an older home.

How does a home warranty work for Kansas real estate sellers?

Kansas real estate sellers can acquire a home warranty plan for coverage for repairs or replacements of major appliances and home systems when they experience mechanical failure due to normal wear and tear during the listing period. 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.

What happens when a home warranty lapses?

A home warranty lapse happens if you cancel your agreement or if your agreement isn’t set to auto-renew and you forget to renew it. If this happens, you’ll typically have to wait 30 days before your appliances and systems are covered again. During this lapsed period, you'll be financially responsible for any repairs you may need to your household appliances or systems.

How can you renew your home warranty in Kansas?

With most home warranty companies in Kansas, 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.

What customers say about our home warranties:
quotes
Cinch Home Services has been pretty prompt in their response. To have a response within 72 hours is pretty amazing. They had to wait for a part but they've taken care of it satisfactorily. They covered their feet, they were very professional and seemed to be knowledgeable.
quotes
My washing machine broke down and Cinch ordered the repair to be set up. A part kept being on backorder so they sent me a new washing machine. It was a great experience. They were very good about everything. I also had a claim for the refrigerator and it ended up being a lot more expensive and extensive repair than we originally thought it was going to be. So, that again, was a very good service I’m very happy.
quotes
When I call Cinch, they've been all informational, excellent and knowledgeable. Ordered the parts and came right out. So far, they're on time, very easy to contact, schedule and very knowledgeable on what they do. I'm very happy with my experience with Cinch.
quotes
Cinch has been very good. They come out right away. Generally, they schedule a service when it's convenient for us, and the technicians we've had have been very nice. Having the home warranty program gives us peace of mind. We got it when we bought a new refrigerator. And in the first year, the compressor went out.
