1  Home Builders / Drees / Drees Homes on: January 05, 2007, 09:41:36 pm
Hello Everyone. Just wanted to give a quick warning to anyone considering building with Drees Homes. We had Drees Homes build us a home and moved in during November of 2005. The quality of our home left much to be desired. We have had constant water issues surrounding our home. Our basement has had cracks in the walls that were letting water in, therefore if we ever go to sell our home, we will have to disclose this to any prospective buyers which will either deter them from purchasing or causing a much lower bid - therefore we have lost money. We have had cracks in concrete. They messed up our basement floor and had to dig it up to correct their mistake which in turn caused a weak spot in our floor that continually cracks and needs patched. The quality of workmanship in our home was beyond bad. Drywall job horrible. Some of our walls were not even painted before we moved in. Trim work uneven. Defective cabinets that they refused to replace but insisted they would fix them properly in which they did another amateur job where corners are not flush with one another and were never sanded so rough edges are exposed. I could go on and on. The main problem with Drees aside from hiring the most inexpensive contractors to do work in their homes, is the fact that anytime there is a problem of any kind, you have to FIGHT to get things done. They always try to find "loopholes" to not have to fix the things being asked for. Warranty issues take forever and all requests do not get taken care of or fixed the correct way, but rather rigged in a sense. We are extremely unhappy with Drees and plan to do everything we can to tell everyone we know what they are in store for if they choose Drees Homes as their builder. Angry
