Beazer Homes Reviews

For a long time I thought a square area on the ceiling was a shadow cast from the window until I finally realized it was a spot they had patched, and the white is a different color than the rest of the ceiling. The latest issue is a pipe leak. Yesterday, water was flowing down the kitchen pendent light that is right under the upstairs bath. The light attaches with a round part that's about 1" deep and houses the wiring. I took the light down, and the part attached to the ceiling was full of water, and the dry wall was wet and soft. I called Beazer Warranty, who sent someone out. He was told to "recreate" the leak because some people have lied. By lied, he means the kids overflow the tub and it leaks, and blame the piping.

My 24-year-old uses that bathroom and doesn't take bubble baths with toys, so no flooding! Geez. The technician turned on the tub/shower above the kitchen and let it run. Water did not pour out the open electrical hole where the pendant had been hanging, and since he couldn't recreate it, the boss said they couldn't cover it. What?! If it's a slow leak that finally fills up the pendant light until it flows over and runs down it, you're not going to recreate it by running water for 10 minutes. They want me to let them know when I can recreate it! So they want me to let the slow leak fill up the pendent light that houses wires until it overflows again, or it falls from rotted drywall, or burns down the house? Probably want to wait me out until warranty expires!

I forgot to mention they messed up the grading between our house. They didn't realize our yard was as wide as it was so the grading slope goes through part of our backyard not between our house and the neighbors. *As for the cracked tile the warranty guy at that time was awesome and he did send someone out to fix the tiles even though of course it was out of warranty... Problem is one year later the crack came back in the exact same spot. These homes are thrown up quick and cheap!

In my home alone we have had our kitchen cabinets replaced twice and are on a third time due to improper plumbing. Last week they were supposed to come out. So I waited at home Monday And Tuesday. Monday the granite people came out to take off the counters, the plumber (Cathedral Plumbing) never showed so the granite people just took the counter off and put it in the garage. I waited all day Monday for the plumbers, Tuesday the cabinet people came out and began asking about the plumbing. Hello I am not a plumber. I know nothing, hence I bought a new home. Needless to say after many phone calls the plumbers never showed Tuesday so the cabinet people couldn't take the cabinet out and replace it. By Friday we still had no plumber, no new cabinet or counter top so I asked to have everything put back together which again was a nightmare. Another day I had to stay home and wait for people to come to my house. So now my kitchen is a mess.

In the meantime they didn't slope our master bathroom shower correctly so they had to pull out the shower floor out (they did this twice because they didn't do it right the first time around). During this they broke some tile. After looking everywhere we were told there was no more tile like we have so they would need to replace our flooring. Mind you they had to take our shower doors off so we've been without a working master shower for months now. They are supposed to be out today. Note another day off and it will take 3 days to complete.

Next week supposedly the kitchen will be fixed. Another 3 days I have to take off work to hopefully be done with that. Then they will need to come and paint because of the damage that happened, so another day off. We still have issues with our yard, so we're fighting with them on French drains, which they put in by our neighbors already because of their yard flooding. We had sprinkler issues, electrical issues, problems with the whirlpool appliances (that's a whole different nightmare). Door handles falling off, doors not put on properly, engineers come check stability, painters, plumbers, contractors, rocks on the back wall falling off, our floors are completely uneven but fall into the reasonable flaw agreement and there's so much more. There have been many days were no one showed. All in all in one year I am going on having to take off over 50 days to be at home.

Overall the quality of Beazer is a one, only because my house is still standing. This was not a cheap home by any means and the amount of days off, headaches and tears cried because of this has been endless. What should have been a joyous occasion has been one headache after another. I would never buy a Beazer home, I would never recommend a Beazer home.

To add insult to injury, VP of Sales, Janise Turner, told me the closing would be near the end of June. I asked her to work with us and requested a closing date of the second week of July. So not only did we not get a direct response, we received a letter today telling us the closing is scheduled for May 31st! What the hell happened to the end of June? I'm so disgusted.

Our liaison, Cary **, has also been deceitful from the get-go, dodging my questions about when the house will be ready, stringing us along as if we were still looking at the Oct. deadline. What the hell good are weekly updates when you're completely blindsided that your house is ready 4 months ahead of schedule?? No problem for them - just pay 2 mortgages. Meanwhile, I have 1 kid in college and another one starting this year. Screws up all of our plans and sours what was supposed to be a really joyful event in our lives. We can't just disrupt our lives, sell our house, and move 4 months sooner. May karma get all those working for Beazer who perpetuate lies and deception.

We upgraded our garage door and paid for it and of course and we still don’t have it. We also upgrade our master bedroom door and we still don’t have it. We upgrade our living room doing 1 more cabinet and paid a lot money for that and buy the end we have a crooked door with bad shape when you see the cabinets. My cabinets was replaced 3 times. It's like a joke, but it's true and they still did not finish it. The last week before our closing our wood floor was damaged because they did not use the protection to prevent it. We did regular visits to follow up and I have a lot pictures of it and what I understand It was poorly managed and of course their contractors was the worse, so that way, they did more money with less costs and less quality. I will NEVER recommend this builder.

We have had major cracks in the homes interior and exterior. Cracks between two walls, cracks from windows to ceiling and a very large crack across the living room ceiling. On the exterior cracks in the brick on both sides of the house. One side of the house the cracks run almost the whole length of the house. Put a warranty claim in December and still waiting resolution. No feedback given to me after inquiring on the engineering report. I wish I had read these reviews before. Buyer beware!!!
