Home warranty services are contractual agreements between homeowners and warranty companies that cover repair and replacement costs for home systems and appliances. These services offer homeowners financial protection and convenience in managing home repairs and replacements.
The primary types of home warranty services include home systems, appliances, and others. A home systems warranty provides coverage for the repair and replacement of major home systems that break down due to normal wear and tear. These warranties can be distributed through various channels, including direct sales, agents or brokers, and other methods, and are applicable to both residential and organizational purposes.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp rise in U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are having a notable impact on the services sector, particularly in business services, IT, and professional consulting. The increased costs of imported technology, office equipment, and critical digital infrastructure are driving up operating expenses for service providers, compelling them to either pass these costs on to clients or absorb the financial strain themselves. Outsourcing firms and IT service providers are grappling with higher hardware costs and supply chain delays, which are disrupting project timelines and squeezing profitability. Furthermore, retaliatory tariffs have weakened demand for U.S.-based professional services in key global markets, slowing export-driven revenues. To navigate these challenges, the sector must focus on accelerating digital transformation, optimizing costs, and strengthening domestic client relationships to sustain growth and remain competitive in an increasingly uncertain trade environment.
The home warranty services market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides home warranty services market statistics, including home warranty services industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a home warranty services market share, detailed home warranty services market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the home warranty services industry. This home warranty services market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The home warranty service market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $8.47 billion in 2024 to $9.07 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.0%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increased home ownership, complexity of home systems, increased awareness among consumers, economic factors, and aging housing stock.
The home warranty service market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $12.07 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing awareness and demand for protection plans, urbanization and condo living, financial flexibility and budgeting, and rising customer expectations and satisfaction. Major trends in the forecast period include enhanced mobile apps and online portals, cybersecurity for connected devices, remote monitoring and control, customization and flexible plans, and digital platforms and mobile apps.
The forecast of 7.4% growth over the next five years reflects a slight reduction of 0.1% from the previous projection. This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. The U.S. could see higher plan premiums as HVAC components, appliance circuit boards, and plumbing fixtures sourced from China and South Korea become more expensive to replace under residential coverage programs. The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The growth of the home warranty service market is expected to be fueled by rising homeownership rates. Homeownership involves owning a residential property and managing its maintenance and responsibilities. As real estate becomes a more attractive investment and more accessible to a broader audience, homeownership rates are increasing. Home warranty services offer financial protection and peace of mind by covering the repair and replacement costs of major home systems and appliances. For example, according to the National Association of Home Builders, homeownership rates increased by 0.3 percentage points for households aged 35-44 in the first quarter of 2023, and those aged 65 and older saw their rates rise to 78.8% from 78.6% the previous year. This increase in homeownership rates is driving the demand for home warranty services.
Companies in the home warranty service market are focusing on advanced solutions with embedded home warranty protection to enhance convenience and integrate coverage into property transactions.

In February 2022, Super, a US-based insurance technology company specializing in subscription-based home care, acquired Platinum Home Warranty for an undisclosed amount.
