Tried to get warranty work done. Sent pictures of drywall screws that have backed out in our master bedroom...and they replied that they don’t do paint touch ups.....pictures clearly show it wasn’t a paint issue. Told us that we should wait for a year to have this repaired...to let the house settle. This issue was found on the home inspection. Painters did a HORRIBLE job!!!! Sod was full of weeds....they don’t return phone calls!!!!

The craftsmanship of the work done was very poor!!! Corners were cut, looks like cheap materials were used, the sod was HORRIBLE—— nothing but weeds and it died!! Quality just isn’t there...very disappointing!! We LOVE the house ...but as we’ve lived here we have notice A LOT of imperfections!!

Prairieville, LA, on Mar 22, 2018

The beginning and middle of the process was great. Choosing the plan and selections were fun and went smooth. The house went up pretty quick and seemed to be great quality other than having 3 different model bathtubs installed in my home. The final stage is when we found that things started to get a little sloppy(paint and sheet rock). I would say communication within the company was the worst part for us. We expressed and expressed again months before closing how important it was to have our fence up before closing and even used your fence company to make sure that happened due to us having a deaf dog. That didn't happen because the yard was not even complete so it could be started. To make it worse, a house that closed after us received their grass before we did. We made the mistake of closing before a few things were complete and it was very hard to get those things done that after the fact. We are still waiting on 1 item but supposed to be done this week. We will see.
