Sewer Line Protection

Help Protect Your Home Systems with Low-Cost Protection Plans

We are excited to provide a program that enhances the city’s dedication to resident service culture. The City of Trotwood has partnered with Service Line Warranties of America (SLWA), a HomeServe company and leading provider of home repair solutions, to offer our eligible residential customers optional repair service plans. Helping to protect Trotwood homeowners from the high costs of home emergency repairs is important to us. That’s why we are offering affordable service plans through SLWA, including sewer line blockages or breaks, water service line leaks on their property, and in-home plumbing issues. Homeowners are often unaware they are responsible for these types of repair costs, which are also not covered by typical homeowners’ insurance. The City of Trotwood and SLWA have worked together to tailor the program to meet the needs of our customers. The marketing, customer service, and repairs using local, licensed, and approved contractors will be managed entirely by SLWA.

Exterior Water Service Line Coverage

A leaking or broken exterior water service line can be expensive to repair or replace. Many homeowners aren’t aware that they own their water service line—and will have to pay for any repairs. The exterior water service line, from your property boundary or external wall of your well casing to the water service meter or main shut-off valve inside your home, is your responsibility. Exterior Water Service Line Coverage protects you, up to the benefit amount, from the covered expense of repairing or replacing your water service line.

Exterior Sewer/Septic Line Coverage

If you suddenly notice raw sewage seeping into your yard from a break or blockage in your sewer or septic line, you’ll want to make sure you have a repair plan in place. Exterior Sewer/Septic Line Coverage protects you from the expense of a covered repair or replacement of your exterior sewer line from the external wall of your home up to your property boundary, or exterior septic line that takes wastewater away from the external wall of your home up to the point of connection to the septic tank on your property, up to the benefit amount.

Interior Plumbing and Drainage System Coverage

Plumbing and drainage emergencies can be messy and inconvenient. Common breakdowns range from blocked shower, sink or toilet drains to broken interior water pipes. Interior Plumbing and Drainage System Coverage protects you, up to the benefit amount, from the covered cost to repair or replace your interior plumbing and drainage lines.
