First American Home Warranty Informative - Subpar Contractors - Home Warranty
SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA -- This is a company with significant assets and services and their home warranty is nearly fraudlant. We have been without heating and air conditioning for 30 days and 3 poorly qualified and service companies have come to our home and we have paid over $1000 OUT OF POCKET and the unit is still not fixed. I would be very interested in seeking collective damages against the company for misrepresentation and the filing of formal complaints to the Arizona Department of Insurance or the Atty General for relief.
It is a crime for consumers to be subject to scam artists in an area where many retirees reside.

Dont you love our immigrant workforce? Cross the border one day, the next you are a contractor! There are entire housing developments in Phoenix that are virtually falling down around their owners ears. Channel 10 or 12 out of Phoenix did a huge story on it about 7 months ago, and they found entire worksites where no one spoke a word of English, sub-contractors that didnt have licenses, and many whom admitted that they hadnt ever worked in construction prior to coming to AZ. Quality work costs money. I paid a premium for a crew of all American workers to come do the remodel on my home. I had 2 Navaho, 4 typical Anglos, and 2 Mexican-Americans that spoke better English than most people I know, they were all professional carpenters and they took great pride in their work, and 5 years down the road, I am yet to have any issues. You have to stipulate in your contract when you build a home, what kind of workers you want. I put it in my contract, and yeah, I got some raised eyebrows when I said,"American citizens only", and I also stipulated that I had final approval of all sub-contractors as well. Its not illegal to do, and in fact, I am curious to find out what is going to happen when the employment laws go into effect, will people who hire illegals to work on their homes be held criminally liable?
