Top Ohio Home Warranty Companies 2025
Protect yourself from unexpected repair costs

Choice Home Warranty stands out with its two straightforward plans and uniform $100 service fee. Its Basic Plan covers essential home systems and appliances, while the Total Plan covers air conditioning, refrigerators, and washers. It’s also our top home warranty for plumbing since it covers your entire plumbing system, including your water heater and garbage disposals. It also covers parts of your electrical system that regulate water pressure.  

As Jake Hill, CEO of DebtHammer, notes, Choice Home Warranty is "especially helpful for owners of older homes" since it doesn't "deny coverage based on the age of your home's systems or appliances." 

Choice Home Warranty offers substantial protection, covering up to $3,000 per successful claim. Plus, you get your first month free if you purchase any single-payment home warranty plan. 

Why we chose Choice Home Warranty: Choice Home Warranty's straightforward plan structure and single $100 service fee make it our top option. In addition to its homeowner plans, CHW provides professional coverage for buyers and sellers. It also offers a 30-day trial, so you can try its services risk-free before fully committing.
