We want to help you understand the difference between homeowners insurance and home protection plans.

With the Complete Line Protection Plan, we’ve bundled water, plumbing, sewer, internet, electrical, and gas line protections into one comprehensive package. You'll receive prompt professional home service in the event of a covered leak, break, clog, or breakdown. The plan also includes reimbursement for qualifying electronics and electrical appliances if they are damaged by an electrical surge.
Important: If you smell natural gas in your home, leave immediately. Do not operate anything that could cause a spark, including lights, cell phones, flashlights, and appliances. From a safe location, call 911 and your local utility, which will dispatch a crew to check on the source of the odor and make the area safe.

The Complete Line Protection Plan is an economical way to safeguard your home's vital service lines, plumbing and electrical systems, and valuable electronics and electric items. This plan combines seven popular plans into a money-saving bundle. It includes: Outside Water Line Protection, Outside Sewer Line Protection, Plumbing Protection, Media Line Protection, Electric Line Protection, Gas Line Protection, and Surge Protection $2,000. For a full list of covered repairs, please refer to our Customer Agreement.
Standard homeowners insurance typically doesn't cover service line repairs; electric, gas and media line repairs; plumbing system repairs; or damages caused by an electrical surge. That leaves you responsible to manage needed fixes on your own. By enrolling in the Complete Line Protection Plan, you gain coverage that homeowners insurance often does not provide.
When you own a home, there's a lot to think about — and sometimes to worry about. The Complete Line Protection Plan takes away a lot of that worry by providing you with professional coverage for your home's water and sewer service lines, gas lines, electric lines, media lines and plumbing system. The plan also eases worry about potential surge damage to your electronics and electric appliances. By combining multiple plans into this one value bundle, you can save money while you gain peace of mind.
Our quality standards are high, and we make it our top priority to provide exceptional service. We partner with local, insured independent contractors to meet your repair needs, and all our work is backed by a guarantee. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us!
The Complete Line Protection Plan covers the water and sewer service lines running through your property; interior electric system components, including breaker panels, circuit breakers, doorbells, standard interior copper wiring, standard wall outlets, switches, and dimmers; gas lines, connectors and shutoff valves inside the home, as well as customer-owned outside gas lines running to qualifying appliances; interior plumbing supply and drain lines; inside media lines such as internet, cable and telephone wiring, as well as select hardware; and electrical appliances, in-home electronics, electrical systems and other electrical devices valued $100 or more if they are damaged by electric surge.

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:
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.
