The process was easy, communications were prompt for the most part and any issues we've had have been promptly addressed.

What I liked most about my experience with Giddens Homes was the customer service and communication from the team. [name removed], in particular, has been responsive, helpful, and willing to work through the concerns we have raised. We are also very happy with the overall design of our home and are proud of what we built. What I disliked most was the lack of transparency during parts of the buying process and the number of quality and warranty issues we have continued to deal with after closing. There were several items, including fencing, the roadway behind our property, incentives, and available upgrades, that we did not feel were fully communicated upfront. Having that information earlier would have helped us make more informed decisions. Since moving in, we have also had ongoing concerns with the flooring, HVAC system, cosmetic finishes, concrete, landscaping, hydroseed, and epoxy. The flooring has required multiple repair attempts and, in some cases, has been further damaged during the repair process. We have also had repeated HVAC visits because of airflow and cooling concerns, but we still do not feel fully confident that the system is performing as it should. We paid for hydroseed, but several areas have not filled in completely and appear to need additional spraying. However, it does not seem that this is included under the warranty. We also discovered a couple of chips in the epoxy before move-in, but have been told those repairs may not be covered either. We used [name removed]’ landscaping trade, but several plants died within the first 30 days or never properly established after planting. It has been disappointing to learn that these plants may not be covered for replacement. The most frustrating part has been the amount of time and follow-up required from us. We have had to coordinate multiple appointments, take time away from work, and continue addressing issues that have been present since move-in. While we appreciate the efforts of the [name removed] team, the overall quality-control and buying experience has not met the expectations we had for a home at this price point.
