Your to-do list can put a strain on your time and wallet. When it comes to maintaining your home, it can often feel like there’s always something that needs attention. From plumbing problems to HVAC issues, electrical failures to appliance malfunctions — keeping up with all the repairs and maintenance can be time-consuming, expensive, and sometimes overwhelming.
But what if you could streamline this process and save both time and money? That’s where a whole-home service plan comes in.
What is a Whole-Home Service Plan?
A whole-home service plan (also known as a home warranty or home service agreement) is a contract with a service provider that offers a series of scheduled home care checkups, savings on repairs, and other membership perks such as priority scheduling and waived consultation fees.
1. Predictable Costs
One of the biggest advantages of a whole-home service plan is the ability to budget for its upfront pricing. The maintenance plan helps avoid unexpected costs that can arise from plumbing, heating, air conditioning, and electrical systems that haven’t been maintained.
2. Faster Service & Reduced Downtime
When something breaks in your home, it’s not just about the cost — it’s about the time it takes to get it fixed. Whether it’s a clogged drain or a malfunctioning water heater, the disruption to your daily routine can be frustrating. With a whole-home service plan, you’ll have access to experienced professionals and priority service to quickly diagnose and repair the issue.
3. Preventative Maintenance
Whole-home preventative maintenance can increase the lifespan of your home’s systems. Regular maintenance helps catch potential problems early, preventing more expensive and time-consuming repairs down the road.
4. Comprehensive Coverage
A major benefit of a whole-home maintenance program is having one plan that covers your home’s major systems. This ensures your provider maintains a history of your home’s maintenance and repair records, and you have consolidated coverage with one contract to manage, simplifying your life and ensuring that you’re not paying for multiple services that overlap.
The Larry & Sons maintenance program includes:
- AC and heat pump maintenance
- Plumbing maintenance
- Electrical maintenance
- Heater and boiler maintenance
5. Avoid Expensive Repair Costs
When appliances break down unexpectedly, the cost of repairs can add up quickly. A service plan allows you to avoid the high upfront costs of repairs and replacements. Enrolling in a maintenance plan like the one offered by Larry & Sons gives participants a discount on repair work and access to financing options, so you can get the service you need right away and budget your payments later.
6. Peace of Mind
Worrying is a waste of time! One of the most significant benefits of a whole-home service plan is the peace of mind it provides. Knowing that your systems have a comprehensive maintenance history and a trusted service provider to call reduces stress and downtime.
Additionally, Larry & Sons allows for easy online claims and 24/7 customer support, meaning you can always get help when you need it.
7. Increased Home Value
A whole-home service plan doesn’t just save you money — it can also increase the value of your home. If you’re thinking about selling your home in the future, having a whole-home service plan in place can be an attractive selling point. It can be seen as a value-add by potential buyers, as it guarantees that critical systems in the home are well-maintained and that issues can be quickly resolved. This can help make your home more appealing in a competitive market.
8. Increased Energy Efficiency
A well-maintained system can reduce your utility bills by increasing your system’s energy efficiency. An AC system working at top efficiency can cut your monthly energy costs by up to 25%. Annual checkups of your heating system can improve its efficiency by up to 16%.
