Ranked by Reliability Score. Availability is based on each company's published service area and may change. Scores blend Better Business Bureau ratings/reviews with Trustpilot scores, see methodology.

Score basis. A Reliability Score normally blends three signals, and a review signal counts once a company has 5 reviews. 3 companies here rest on fewer, so their scores carry less evidence than the rest of the table: Liberty Home Guard: BBB reviews and Trustpilot only (BBB profile not rated); HSA Home Warranty: Trustpilot only (BBB profile not rated, 1 BBB review); Porch Home Warranty: BBB rating only (0 BBB reviews, 2 Trustpilot reviews). How the score is built.
