Town Partners with Sewer Line Warranties of America (SLWA)

Service Line Warranties of America

Since November 2020 Sahuarita residents have received information from Service Line Warranties of America (a private company) in the mail detailing an offer for insurance coverage for homeowners' internal and external sewer lines. 

The Town of Sahuarita has partnered with Service Line Warranties of America (SLWA) to offer this protection. This program is offered at no expense to the town and no public funds are used to promote or administer the program. The coverage is voluntary and available at affordable monthly or annual prices. 

The SLWA Service Line Warranty Program protects against leaks, breaks and clogs due to normal wear and tear, age, unknowns underground and tree root intrusion. If a customer’s line is in need of repair, a simple call to the SLWA 24-hour hotline will dispatch a local, licensed contractor familiar with local code. The program provides up to $4,000 per incident for external water and sewer line repairs with an additional allowance for Public Street and sidewalk cutting. There are no annual or lifetime limits, service fees or deductibles.
