Owning a home in Florida means dealing with humidity, heat, and the potential for tropical storms—all of which can put extra stress on your home’s major system parts. HVAC units may run almost year-round, while moisture and salt air can accelerate wear on plumbing and electrical components. To stay ahead of surprise covered repairs, make sure your Florida homeowners warranty provides coverage for the parts of the systems and appliances you rely on most.

Air conditioning systems 

It’s important to keep your house cool throughout Florida’s long summers. As a Florida homeowner, you’ll want to ensure that any home warranty plan you consider includes coverage for your air conditioner in the event of a covered breakdown.

Kitchen appliances

Florida features high humidity and salty, coastal air which can affect your kitchen appliances due to moisture build-up. A home warranty can help by protecting the parts and components of the appliances you rely on most.

Pool and Spa

Many houses in Florida feature swimming pools to help homeowners cool down from the heat and humidity. If your FL home comes with a pool, it’s a good idea to opt for pool & built-in spa equipment to protect your budget from costly covered breakdowns.

Roof leak repairs

Florida averages more than 50 inches of rain per year1. AHS roof leak repair coverage will repair roof leaks as a result of normal wear and tear, broken or missing shingles, and dry rot.

about AHS Florida

It's worth everything that we pay for it. I purchased another house which came with 2-10 and I let that go and signed up with American Home Shield because the service is so good. We had to do a little bit of update on the breaker box first. We did our part, they did theirs, and we're very satisfied. Whoever American Home Shield is contracted with are good folks.

Georgette Jacksonville, FL

American Home Shield is a good deal. I like that I can do my claims online. They usually get back to me on the same day. They send me an email and tell me they've contacted a contractor to come out.

Betty Orlando, FL

I had electrical issues and the electrician who came out was one of the better ones I've ever had. He addressed the problems right away, and he was very friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and prompt. He was outstanding. American Home Shield offers good value for the money and I like having the extra peace of mind.

Deanna Jacksonville, FL

I have AHS for six years and they are doing a very good job so far. My premium to have the technician come out there, I have to pay a little bit more, which is okay. Recently, I had some techs come out for my garbage disposal and they fixed it. They were very knowledgeable in the field.

Frequently Asked Questions

The home warranty costs depend on a couple of things: the size, type, and location of your home, the level of coverage you need for your home, any additional coverage options you opt to add to your base plan, and the amount you choose for your service fee. With three plans to choose from, you can easily pick the one that’s right for you and your home’s needs. 

While many home warranty companies claim to be the best in Florida, American Home Shield is the original home warranty company, operating since 1971. We are trusted by 2 million members.

Our best home warranty plan is the one that’s right for you and your home. The ShieldSilver™ plan covers the parts and components of your must-have systems like your heating and cooling, plumbing, and electrical systems. ShieldGold™ covers all of the above plus your laundry and kitchen appliances. And with ShieldPlatinum™, you get coverage for just about everything: home systems and appliances, plus premium features like roof leak repair coverage and one free HVAC Tune-up per agreement term. No two homes are the same, and that’s why we have options – so you can find the plan that fits your needs. Whether you live in Miami, West Palm Beach, the Keys, or anywhere in between, we’re here to help you find the right home warranty plan.

A home warranty is an annual, renewable service contract that provides peace of mind and protection. When a covered home system or appliance breaks down, your home warranty plan covers the repair costs. It complements your homeowners insurance by protecting things your insurance doesn’t. In addition to helping with the cost and hassle to repair or replace parts of covered home systems and appliance that break down over time due to normal wear and tear, our home warranty plans also offer American Home Shield members exclusive pricing on home maintenance services, new appliances and HVAC systems, and more – from tech and smart home installation services to pre-season HVAC tune-ups, and more.

In some situations, a seller will purchase a real estate home warranty plan for the buyer of their home or in some cases, real estate professionals will gift a year of home warranty plan coverage to their clients. However, most homeowners typically purchase their own home warranty plan in order to ensure the systems and appliances they use every day are covered and their budgets are protected from expensive repair costs.

If you like to save time and money, a home warranty is for you. When a covered system or appliance breaks down, you could pay thousands* for a single repair or replacement, or you could get a home warranty plan starting at less than $1 a day with American Home Shield. Plus, there’s only one company to contact when you have a breakdown, and we find the right repair Pro for the job. American Home Shield gives you peace of mind.
