Your step-by-step guide to filing a claim
1. Identify the Issue
When you notice a problem with a covered item, refer to your Cinch Home Services plan documents to confirm coverage. Understanding what’s included in your plan helps set clear expectations for the service process. Try to be proactive with this. The longer you wait to file a claim, the more frustrated you’ll be with waiting to get it fixed. There’s a reason you have a home warranty plan, so don’t feel guilty for reaching out.
2. Submit a service request
After identifying the issue, it’s time to submit a service request. This is the part of the process where you contact your home warranty company. There are a few ways you can do this. You can request service 24/7 through our convenient online portal or by phone:
• Online: Log in to your My Account dashboard.
• Phone: Call us at (844) 324-5688.
You can also submit a service request as a guest without logging in for faster access.
3. Pay the service fee
Don't let this part scare you. A service fee is part of the deal and is perfectly normal. A deductible (service fee) is due at the time of your service request. This fee covers the cost of sending a qualified technician to diagnose and address the issue. It's essential to remember that this amount can vary from company to company.
4. The technician dispatch and repairs
After you pay a service fee, someone will visit your home and diagnose the issue. At Cinch Home Services, we will assign a vetted, licensed service professional from our network to your case. The technician will contact you to schedule an appointment, assess the problem and perform the necessary repair or replacement. Once you reach this stage in your claim process, you can rest assured that you're closer to getting your covered item repaired/replaced.
5. Enjoy our workmanship guarantee
Guess what? All repairs performed under your Cinch Home Services plan come with a 180-day workmanship guarantee, giving you added peace of mind. This is an excellent perk!
