CENTEX HOMES

Overall, it was a really good experience. The day that we closed, everything went very smoothly. They answered all of our questions, no matter how trivial they were. Everyone that we dealt with there was great. We are pleased with the workmanship on the house. We have been in the house for two months, and have not encountered any problems so far.

The national company has a very good reputation. Solving problems with the local office has been a challenge. Our main issue with them has been the way they left the backyard with inappropriate protection from erosions and leaving part of it unfilled and ungraded. I would not trust this company with an investment of a life time such as building a house.

WE PURCHASED OUR NEW HOME FROM CENTEX HOMES AND WERE VERY PLEASED WITH THE ENTIRE PROCESS. WE HAD A FEW ITEMS THAT NEEDED REPAIRED. WE CALLED THEIR WARRANTY DEPT AND WITHIN ONE DAY CENTEX HAD THEIR SUBS ON THE JOB AND THE WORK WAS COMPLETED TO OUR SATISFACTION. THANK YOU CENTEX HOMES FOR A GREAT EXPERIENCE! YOU WILL DEFINITELY BUILD OUR NEXT HOUSE!

OUR HOUSE WAS BUILT IN 2000/2001 UNDER OUR PURCHASE AGREEMENT. AMONG OTHER PROBLEMS, WE HAVE A LEAKING WALL IN OUR KITCHEN/DINING AREA THAT HAS BEEN ADDRESSED BY THE COMPANY AT LEAST 4 TIMES. IT STILL IS NOT FIXED. WE ARE PREPARED TO HIRE AN ATTORNEY AND FORCE THE BUILDER TO BUY BACK THE HOUSE. THE CEILING IN THE MAIN ROOM HAS ALSO BEEN REPAIRED FOR CRACKS AT LEAST 5 TIMES.

THIS COMPANY DOES NOT CARE ABOUT SERVICE AFTER THE SALE!THEY'VE BEEN OUT AT LEAST FOUR TIMES REGARDING CRACKING WALLS AND CEILINGS, REPAIRS HAVE FAILED. WE HAVE TRIED TO CONTACT THEM THREE TIMES THIS WEEK, WITH NO RETURNED CALLS! WE ARE READY TO CONTACT AN ATTORNEY OR THE BBB.

THEY BUILT MY HOME. I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THEM SINCE EVEN BEFORE CLOSING. EVEN UP TO AN HOUR BEFORE CLOSING I HAD A HOLE IN MY GARAGE THAT WAS LARGER THAN I AM, BECAUSE THEY HAD TO REDESIGN SOMETHING THEY MESSED UP. MY PHONE LINES WERENT LAID PROPERLY IN THE HOUSE BY THE BUILDER AND AS A RESULT I WAS WITHOUT PHONE SERVICE FOR OVER A WEEK BECAUSE AMERITECH WAS UNABLE TO CONNECT THE SERVICE THE WAY IT HAD BEEN DONE, I COULD HAVE PAID AMERITECH $110 TO DO IT, BUT CENTEX WAS SUPPOSED TO. MY INTERIOR GARAGE LIGHTS WERE CONNECTED WRONG SO WHEN I TURNED THEM ON MY OUTSIDE LIGHTS WOULD COME ON. MY KITCHEN WINDOW WOULD NOT LOCK. THERE WERE HAIRLINE CRACKS IN THE BASEMENT THAT NEEDED TO BE FILLED THAT WERENT. ALSO, THERE WAS ANOTHER HOLE IN THE GARAGE, MAN SIZE HOLES. THERE WAS A CABINET WITH A LARGE HOLE IN THE BACK OF IT. OUR DAYLIGHT HOLE IN THE BACKYARD HAD NOT BEEN DUG, SO WATER WOULD NOT DRAIN PROPERLY. THERE IS A LARGE HOLE IN THE FRONT YARD. MY BATHROOM SINK PIPES LEAK.
