Service Line Protection Available for Dayton Homeowners

DAYTON, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#HomeRepairs–The City of Dayton has partnered with Service Line Warranties of America
(SLWA) to offer homeowners optional residential external water service
line warranties. The coverage is voluntary and available at affordable
monthly or annual prices. Founded in 2003, SLWA has partnered with over
400 leading cities and municipalities in the U.S. to provide repair
service plans that offer peace of mind and convenience.

“Many homeowners are unaware that they are responsible for any repairs
to the service lines on their property connecting their home to the city
systems,” said Mayor Craig George. “This means that homeowners can be
stuck with the hassle and expense of the repair, from identifying a good
contractor and scheduling the repair to be done to funding the cost of
it. As Dayton homes age along with the infrastructure serving them, SLWA
repair plans provide homeowners with an optional solution so they can be
better prepared when repairs are needed.”

The SLWA Service Line Warranty Program protects against leaks or
blockages to pipes on homeowners’ property. Repairs to these pipes are
not covered by basic homeowners insurance or by the City of Dayton. 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 and is being offered for
the benefit of residents. The program is provided at no cost to the City
of Dayton, no public funds are used to promote or administer it and the
City does not receive any compensation by making the program available
to homeowners.

“Our service plans not only cover the cost of the repair, they also
provide homeowners with reputable, local contractors who will do the
best possible job,” said John Kitzie, CEO of SLWA parent company
HomeServe USA. “We’re thrilled to partner with the City of Dayton and
look forward to the opportunity to provide Dayton homeowners with the
assistance they need when faced with a home repair emergency.”

SLWA has been recognized as the nation's largest and most trusted source
of utility line plans endorsed by the National League of Cities. The
company is committed to customer service, ethical marketing practices
and maintaining an A+ accredited rating with the Better Business Bureau.
