The
City of Waterloo is
partnering with Service Line Warranties of America ( SLWA ) to offer protection for homeowners through its service line
protection program
. The coverage is voluntary and available at affordable monthly or annual prices . Local residents should expect to receive a letter in the mail with more details .
“Many homeowners do not know that damage to the service lines on their property is their responsibility to repair , ” said
Chad Coon
,
Water Works General Manager
. “In the event of a service line emergency , the homeowner is responsible for scheduling the repair and covering the associated cost . As
the city’s
homes age along with the infrastructure serving them , SLWA repair plans provide homeowners with an optional peace of mind solution so they can be better prepared in the event of these unexpected repairs . ”
The SLWA Service Line Warranty Program protects against damage to pipes on homeowners’ property . Repairs to these pipes are not covered by basic homeowners’ insurance or by
the City of Waterloo
. If a customer’s line is in need of repair , a simple call to the SLWA 24 - hour hotline will dispatch a local , licensed contractor familiar with local code . There are no service fees or deductibles .
Many factors contribute to the life expectancy of a service line including the age , type of piping material , soil conditions and installation quality - all factors which are covered through the SLWA protection program . This program is voluntary for residents and provided at no cost to
the City of Waterloo ,
and no public funds are used to promote or administer the program .
Service Line Warranties of America ( SLWA ) is part of HomeServe USA Corp (
HomeServe
) , a leading provider of home repair solutions serving over 3 . 1 million customers across the US and Canada .
