CenterPoint Energy recently announced the completion of several goodwill repair projects that were performed in collaboration with HomeServe, a nationwide provider of emergency home repair protection programs, and Rebuilding Together, a charitable, non-profit organization helping revitalize neighborhoods. These organizations worked together to identify opportunities to serve the Houston community by completing repairs that help provide safe utility services to their homes.

“We are committed to our customers and giving back to the community, which is one of the reasons we selected HomeServe to offer emergency home repair solutions to our natural gas customers,” said Rick Plummer, Director of Home Services South for CenterPoint Energy. “HomeServe supports the local economy through their selection of minority-owned local contractors to perform repairs, which is also a critical factor in CenterPoint Energy’s vendor selection process.”

Joe Carbajal of Texas Quality Plumbing in Houston, a local HomeServe contractor said, “HomeServe’s collaboration with CenterPoint Energy helps us with a lot of business and helps the community too. Thanks to HomeServe, we’re growing and excited to see what’s next. We like to take on the challenges of the next job and next obstacle.”

CenterPoint Energy continues to work with HomeServe to offer plans to its natural gas residential customers in the southern service territory. Since 2018, the plans have helped customers save more than $13 million dollars in unexpected home repair costs.
