Overall Rating: 3.9 / 5 (Very good)

First Premier Home Warranty is a relative newcomer to the home warranty industry, but enjoys an overall favorable reputation on consumer review sites. The company offers coverage in 27 states. Customers have a choice of two plans and may also elect coverage upgrades for unique home features.

First Premier Home Warranty does not provide specific pricing information on its website, but they make it fairly easy to request a quote online. Monthly premiums and per-service-call prices may vary by location and by the deductible a customer selects.

First Premier Home Warranty policies are highly customizable. Customers can select coverage very specific to their needs. Some homeowners might really appreciate this level of flexibility, while others might prefer to purchase an all-in-one plan to keep things simple.

Coverage Options - 4 / 5

First Premier Home Warranty offers a choice of two plans. Its lower price plan, the Premier Plan, does not cover some of the items might expect it to and which are included in competitive plans, including refrigerator, washer, and dryer coverage. You must step up to the Premier Platinum plan and/or to specialty coverage options to get coverage for these items. The company's specialty options include coverage for pools, spas, sump pumps, and duplicate appliances.

Specialty Items and Additional Coverage

First Premier Home Warranty offers quite a few options for covering unique home items. We found their coverage for second appliances in the home—like that extra fridge in the basement—a particularly practical option.

Annual Premium

Contract & Price - 3.5 / 5

You can purchase a First Premier Home Warranty by the month or annually. The company's two stand-alone plan prices are a little higher than average. However, customers may find that if they add specialized coverage for such items you might be expected to be included in a non-custom plan—such as a refrigerator ice maker, washer, or dryer—the cost of your policy can really creep up.

Cancellation Policy

First Premier Home Warranty allows customers to cancel their policies for a full refund within 30 days of purchase, provided no claims are made during that period.

Since i signed up with FIRST PEMIER HOME WARRANTY company in October 2022, i have been very disappointed. On December 30th i filed a claim to have a plumber clean out drain that was flooding my basement. When i submitted the invoice , the claim was approved on January 9th, Then it wasn't until February 16th that i received a very small amount in compensation for repair. After repeated phone calls, i was finally informed that because the invoice didn't have "PAID" written on it, that they only approved this claim out of "Good will".? What the ? So, to complicate matters, i came home from work in early January and my heater wasn't working. I immediately called my service heating cooling... Read More

DO NOT GET THIS WARRANTY COMPANY! They are Scamming us to get money but not provide service. Amazing sales guys but will not cover your claim. I paid for 6 years and after a year when I finally had a claim they made up things to not approve my claim and Todd Pearson - Operations Manager was extremely rude and accusatory although i provided all the supporting documentation. You will do more work with 0 outcome. They just want your money. I paid for a specialist to come diagnose my HVAC system and they gave their recommendation to First Premier Home Warranty, I had to call and reach out over 6 times to get a status and next steps then they asked for 3 years of maintenance report which...

Best experience getting a 5 year home warranty, this gives me a great peace of mind! compared to many other plans and this was by far the best coverage and price. Michael was a pleasure to work with and I could tell he really did care about what was best for us. Thank you for the excellent customer service!

Bought a house in June and bought a warranty with them the same month paid in full for 5 years. In January the water softener was making noise so we put in a request to have it repaired. The technician came out and said that the softener needed rebuilt, and submitted the paperwork. FPHW said they wouldn't repair it because I didn't have 36 months of maintenance receipts done on the house. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! They're going to fight you on every single claim you put in. Not worth it.

The worst possible company ever several customer complaints at least 80 just this year I canceled in January within 30 days they have threatened me if I didn't remove this bad review I gave them they would not give me my refund now they are dragging this out so they can say that a form wasn't filled out asked for it still waiting so they can try to prorate it and this way it's not a total loss no they say that they dont have my money 90% of the complaints are exactly the same story please do research before you even get a quote getting a quote gives them permission to keep your digital signature just a reminder
