Business Wire
HomeServe USA (HomeServe), a leading provider of home emergency
repair solutions, today announced the launch of its partnership
with the Gary Sanitation District (GSD) to offer optional service
plans for exterior sewer lines to customers served by GSD. The
plans offered through HomeServe, available to 24,000 households in
Gary, will provide homeowners with coverage that protects them from
the costs and inconveniences associated with emergency repairs to
the exterior sewer lateral connecting their home to the GSD main,
due to blockages, tree root intrusions, pipe breaks or other common
occurrences.
“Many homeowners in our community are unaware that sewer repairs
are the responsibility of the property owner. Naturally, many
become frustrated when a blocked or damaged sewer service line is
discovered at their property,” said GSD Special Administrator, Gary
Mayor Karen Freeman-Wilson. “By partnering with HomeServe to offer
options to cover sewer line repairs, we hope to ease the burden
associated with such an event and provide educational information
that may help avoid an issue in the future.”
A Homeowner’s Line of Defense
In Gary, the sewer lines from the GSD sewer main to the home are
the responsibility of the homeowner. Unaware that repairs to these
areas are not covered by the City, homeowners can find themselves
having to deal with the inconvenience of navigating emergency
repairs on their own. Furthermore, they can be blindsided by the
costs associated with such repairs. HomeServe’s coverage plans
serve as a line of defense, ensuring that in the event of a home
repair emergency, the burden on homeowners to bear the expense and
difficulty is minimized or eliminated. The repair process, handled
through HomeServe, is timely, seamless and high-quality.
“We’re very pleased to partner with the Gary Sanitation District
to extend this peace of mind option to its customers,” said Tom
Rusin, CEO of HomeServe USA. “Our Sewer Line coverage, along with
the other HomeServe plans that will be available, are designed so
that homeowners can cost-effectively minimize the inconvenience
created by repair emergencies while protecting themselves from the
associated costs.”
Accessible, Reliable, 24/7
HomeServe plan holders have access to a Repair Hotline that is
accessible 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, as well as local,
licensed, and insured contractors to provide high-quality home
repair services in a timely manner. The Exterior Sewer/Septic Line
Coverage is available for a $5.75 monthly fee during the first 12
months of coverage and residents that enroll in the option plan
will receive up to $15,000 of annual protection. Convenient payment
options are available directly through HomeServe.
Gary homeowners will receive additional details about the
optional service plans in the mail. Homeowners can also visit
