Columbia Service Partners™* offers optional repair and maintenance plans to homeowners. These plans are administered by Oncourse Home Solutions, one of the nation's leading providers of optional protection programs. The plans provide piece of mind for customers by helping protect them from the costs associated with unexpected repairs. Columbia Service Partners™* is not affiliated with Columbia Gas®. 

Gas Line Protection Plan coverage includes an annual in-home inspection of your home’s interior gas lines, shutoff valves and gas appliance connectors. The plan covers parts and labor costs for repairs of leaks to interior gas pipes or connectors resulting from defects in workmanship and/or materials or damage due to normal wear and tear. The plan also covers repairs of leaks of gas piping to appliances outside the home such as gas grills, lamp posts, pool heaters and detached garages. For a full list of covered repairs, please refer to our Customer Agreement.

Standard homeowners insurance typically excludes repairs for your home’s natural gas lines, leaving you to handle maintenance and fixes on your own. Enrolling in the Gas Line Protection Plan provides you with protection for these lines.

If your home’s natural gas lines fail, it can lead to a dangerous situation and repairs can be expensive, but Columbia Service Partners™* can cover these unexpected costs. We’ll manage the entire process for you, including finding a contractor to handle the repairs, so it’s hassle-free.

Delivering exceptional service is our priority. We partner with local, insured independent contractors to address your repair needs, and all work is guaranteed. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to us.

The Gas Line Protection Plan includes an annual in-home inspection and repair coverage for your interior natural gas lines, shutoff valves and gas appliance connectors, including the connections at your heating system. It also covers gas piping to outdoor appliances such as gas grills, lamp posts, pool heaters and detached garages. There is also reimbursement available for professional restoration costs (painting, drywall, filling in holes, or landscape restoration) necessitated by a covered repair.  

Your protection starts immediately upon your enrollment being processed. Detailed information will be included in the welcome packet you’ll receive after enrolling.

The Gas Line Protection Plan includes up to $3,500 per year for covered gas line repairs. In addition, the Plan provides a reimbursement of up to $250 per year for professional restoration costs such as painting, drywall, filling in holes necessitated by a covered repair, or landscape restoration. See the Customer Agreement for full details.

If you decide you no longer want to maintain your protection with us, there are multiple ways for you to cancel it.

By phone: This is typically the easiest and fastest way to cancel your program(s). You can call 888-717-5432 any time, day or night, and select the option to cancel your protection. When you are connected to one of our agents, tell them that you wish to cancel your protection. The agent will ask you some questions to verify your account information and will be able to assist you with the cancellation.

Through your online account: There a few simple steps to follow if cancelling your protection online:

• Visit csp.oncourse.com and log into your online account. (If you do not have an online account, you can register for one.)
• After logging in, click on the "Properties" tab near the top of the page. You'll see your "My Properties" window and its list of your properties and programs.
• Click on the "Cancel Enrollment" link for the program you wish to cancel, confirm your request on the window that pops up, fill out the "Contact us" form that appears, and submit the form.

Online chat: To initiate an online chat with one of our agents, click on the Chat prompt on the right edge of one of our website pages. Select "Billing Question" as the nature of your inquiry and click Submit, then let the agent know you would like to cancel your coverage. (Or, if prompted, please enter your name and "Cancel coverage" as the reason for your chat.) The agent will assist you from there.

If you cancel your protection within the first 30 days after your new program enrollment was processed, you will be entitled to a full refund of all program fees you have paid. This refund will be issued within 30 days of cancellation.

For all other customers:

If you are paying monthly for your protection, your program cancellation will take effect at the end of your monthly billing cycle and you will not receive money back. Protection under your contract will continue through the end of your monthly billing cycle, regardless of when you cancel within the cycle.

If you are paying annually for your protection, your program cancellation will take effect at the end of the current billing month within your annual term, and you will receive a refund for the remainder of your annual term. Your refund will be credited to the same payment method you used to make your annual payment.

If you pay your Columbia Service Partners™* charges through your utility company's monthly bill and wish to cancel your protection, let us know of your cancellation request by phone or in your online account with us (see specifics above). Once we process your cancellation request, we will notify your utility company that we are no longer requesting payment from them for your cancelled protection. Depending on how Columbia Service Partners and your utility company's billing cycles align and whether your utility company bills for services after they are provided, a charge may still appear on your next one to two utility bills. Rest assured that once we have processed your cancellation request, we will not ask your utility for any additional payments for your protection, and you will only be charged for months you received protection.

Note: If you close your utility account, or if you do not pay your utility bill in full each month, your coverage with us may be canceled as a result.

After your protection cancellation request is processed, the cancellation will take effect at the end of your current monthly Columbia Service Partners™* billing cycle. Until that date, your protection will remain active and you will be eligible to make a claim if needed.

Yes. If you change your mind and want to re-enroll in protection, just let us know. Depending on your selected program(s), you may need to wait 30 days for your new protection to become effective, and pre-existing conditions are not covered.

If you do not have an automatic payment method on file, or if your account is not set to automatically renew, you may receive a notice requesting you to renew your coverage for another year. Please respond to your notice to renew your coverage. Not responding will result in your coverage being canceled.

If you received a piece of mail, email, or postcard indicating you had a failed payment, it is because we were unable to successfully process your payment using the method we have on file. To avoid a lapse in your coverage, please contact us and set up another payment method.
