HomeServe plc was a provider of home assistance and repair services, helping homeowners manage unexpected problems involving plumbing, heating, electrical systems, and other essential household infrastructure. Its services were typically offered through membership plans that provided access to emergency call centers, approved tradespeople, and repair or maintenance support.
The company also worked with utility companies, insurers, banks, and other business partners to provide home-repair programs to their customers. In addition to its membership products, HomeServe operated networks of qualified contractors and delivered assistance services for issues such as boiler breakdowns, water leaks, blocked drains, and electrical failures.
Founded in the United Kingdom in 1993 by entrepreneur Richard Harpin, HomeServe expanded internationally and served customers in markets including the United Kingdom, the United States, France, and Spain. The company grew through a combination of direct-to-consumer offerings and partnerships with utilities and other organizations.
HomeServe was acquired by Brookfield Infrastructure in 2022, after which it ceased operating as an independent publicly listed company. Its former shares traded in the United States under the symbol HMSVY.
