Great company to do business with. We bought our first home here. Everything went smoothly. They took care of everything! Been in the home over a year and a half now and was having AC problems and the warranty company didn't want to pay for the part or labor. I called Dustin from Clayton homes in Dothan AL and they took care of everything. No questions asked. Highly recommend this company!
Thank you for taking the time to share!

I cannot say enough good things about the service technicians (Frank and Bobby) that recently helped with my home repairs. They came out to my Tru mobile home to address several repairs, and their professionalism, attention to detail, and work ethic were outstanding. They took the time to carefully address every issue I had and made sure everything was corrected properly instead of rushing through the job. It was clear they genuinely cared about the quality of their work and wanted to make sure everything was done right.
What impressed me most was how they treated my home. They worked on it as if it were their own home. They seemed to take pride in their craftsmanship and making repairs the way they would want them done if they had to live there themselves. That level of care and respect is hard to find. Bobby and Frank were courteous, thorough, and dedicated to making sure I was satisfied with the results. I am extremely grateful for their hard work and would highly recommend them to anyone needing service work done. Thank you both for a job well done! I will be requesting them for any repairs I need throughout my warranty.

We have had our Clayton Home for about 3 years. Pray you never have to replace the water heater! We are doing that right now. We will have to tear down a wall partially to get the THREE YEAR OLD heater out. They built the closet around the heater and didn't leave enough room in the "door" to get it out. The microwave handle broke off after 13 months. Of course, one month after the warranty is over. The fridge is already failing. I have replaced a half dozen outlets because...they failed. That was when I got to see the wiring!
You know when your drunk uncle Billy Bob says "I can fix that! Hold my beer" I think Billy Bob did the wiring! And the plumping. Well, now that you bring up the plumping! The shower had almost no caulk, the master toilet has probably leaked from day one, we only discovered it after the warranty was out...of course. I could go on, but I think my thoughts are clear. The shell is OK, but everything else has Billy Bob's finger prints all over it!

To Clayton Built Homes, we purchased our home (the patriot) from Homes Direct in Mount Vernon, Wa on June 25/24. Right from the start we have had terrible service from homes direct and the recommended contractor Gary Kitching LLC. During our homes direct experience we had to endure the termination of two different sales people. As new sales staff were given our file of which they ignored. The first salesman (Gary **), tried to add an extra $10,000.00 to our bill, upon our noticing this discrepancy he changed the overcharge to $5,000.00. We were not happy but to try to to get moving on our home we agreed to wait and bring it up to management later. Unfortunately we did not get to discuss anything with homes direct or Clayton.
We were assured by Heather that at the completion of our home being set up we would receive a survey from both Clayton and homes direct. WE RECEIVED NOTHING! We came to you plant in Albany on July 1/24 to view our home and were very impressed with your establishment and from the wonderful treatment we received from your employee that showed us around (think it’s Joe). I hope a representative of Clayton will contact us soon to fully discuss this very important situation,

Clayton Homes used my address to notify businesses that my home was to be demolished. It actually was neighbor's across street. After phone calls to correct it, it still continued. I called manager at Panama City. He was very abrupt, rude and stated, "We discussed this yesterday and you can contact companies to stop it." WHY? I didn't make the mistake. He was unapologizing and slammed the phone down in my ear. This is very bad customer service and I'm not even a customer, just someone who was caught up in their mistake trying to correct it.

Customer service was good but the mobile homes are made poorly and won't last a couple of years! I paid 70k cash for my 3/2 mobile home, and only after purchasing the home they did a bad job on my skirting of the home, I asked them to come correct it and they said they couldn't that it was my responsibility, then the boards on my front porch are coming up, and on the inside all of the trim an baseboard are coming apart through out my whole mobile home! And they didn't drill correctly the locks on my back door, and on the outside of my mobile home you can see all through the paint where they cocked all the siding, so now I have to pay someone to come an repaint my whole house before all of my siding messes up an water starts to come through the walls!
And I have trouble with bubbles coming up through out all of my floors in the whole mobile home! And I've only been living in here 2 years! So I don't have any warranty on it! So don't buy any mobile homes from Clayton cause you will spend a lot of money an it's just gonna mess up just months after you move in case that's what happened to me! Pieces of shit literally just ripped me off. Now I'm stuck having to redo all this and I don't have money to do it now! So Clayton y'all suck!

Only to find out shingles were installed WRONG, electrical outlets are cross wired, insulation improperly installed etc…

I would never purchase a Clayton Home, I’m leaving this review based off my son’s purchase and I feel terrible as his father and I recommend Clayton to him. It’s been a mess since it started - it was a rush job from the time of purchase, tried to deliver while we were 9 hrs away on vacation. Footers looked like a 3rd grader poured and had to be redone, same company also covered up our septic tank riser (I’ve personally called/texted the salesman I’d say over two dozen times for it to be located as we had just paid to have it located and a riser capped on it). The foundation that was subcontracted out and stuccoed has over a dozen cracks in it. Also been reported but again nothing has been done, eventually the stucco will start falling off in those areas.
The roof leaked as they forgot to take something off after the move. Not sure what but causing it to leak in the living room, numerous other problems but not quite as large as the ones mentioned. When their salesman is called and problems reported all they get is “I’ll let my manager know”. It’s amazing that these kids paid over 200K for a house that hasn’t lasted even one year before leaks began, foundation issues, etc. I would highly recommend going with another manufacturer than Clayton Homes.

I’m giving 3 stars mainly because of the incredible customer service I received from Clayton Homes in Tomball/Pinehurst, Texas—especially Peter and his team. They were truly amazing and helped me through a situation where I needed to move quickly, and for that I’m very grateful. However, the reason I can’t give 5 stars comes down to the quality of the home setup and finishing. I purchased my 3 bed, 2 bath home in April 2026 and put down a significant amount of money (around $20,000). Given that they had about 1.5 to 2 months to prepare, move, and set up the home, I expected better attention to detail.
Since moving in, I’ve already had to deal with multiple issues. Parts of the wall material are coming loose, and I find myself having to glue or nail them back almost every other day. The laminate flooring is already showing problems, including bubbling near the refrigerator. In several areas, what appears to be carpenter’s putty was used instead of proper plumbing caulking, which led to leaks around toilets, sinks, and drains. I’ve had to remove and redo much of that myself. There was also no proper caulking around the toilets or in the showers and bathtubs. From the outside, the home looks good overall, but there are noticeable siding issues where pieces are uneven or not properly installed.
This is my first time buying a home—something I never thought would be possible—and I truly appreciate Peter and the opportunity I was given. But it’s been disappointing to move in expecting to enjoy a new home, especially after going through a family crisis, only to immediately face repairs that should have been handled correctly the first time. I hope this feedback helps improve quality control and attention to detail and for Clayton to consider attention to detail for the common courtesy of the homebuyers.

I bought a Clayton home out of Russellville Arkansas from American Homes. It was Manufactured at Southern Entergy in Alabama. They build Clayton homes. They will put you off on fixing repairs until your year is up. Then will not call you back not only is this the poorest build home I have ever seen I still have major problems with it I still have broken sheet rock, trim missing, cabinet doors broken, you can see daylight threw my door nob, my shower doesn’t drain properly in master bedroom water stands in the left side of the shower. My cabinet in master bedroom is cracked, nails sticking up from floor through out the home, weak spot in pantry that run through to front of fridge gives when you walk on it and squeaks.
Counter top to right of floor sags so you can’t put a coffee pot or anything else there, counter is pulling away from wall sink in kitchen will not drain properly due to floor sagging in that corner. And my bar is an eye sore. The workers tried to replace the bar counter top that had chips in it and they messed up the sheet rock and put holes in it and no one will come fix it. You can see light coming from pantry into the bedroom 1/2 “ gap from wall to ceiling. Debra from Southern homes said she wasn’t fixing it. I overheard her tell her workers that on the phone. There are a lot better mobile home builder and dealers. I would very much recommend a different builder and a different dealer. As the home needs about $30000 of Repairs I can’t afford right now. This house was bought brand new in 2024. Paid cash. now I am stuck with it. Learn from my mistake.
Thank you for your feedback. Clayton Homes is aware of the complaint filed with the Arkansas Manufactured Home Commission regarding damaged bar countertop, wallboard, and an unlevel floor, possibly due to a pier not touching.

We purchased a home through Clayton Homes in Muskogee and, unfortunately, our experience has been extremely disappointing and stressful. We were given verbal representations that our new home would be delivered and move-in ready within approximately 14 days. Based on those assurances, we agreed to have our existing residence removed from our property. And had living accommodations in place for those 14 days. After our home was removed, the timeline continued to be pushed back, and eventually we were left without any clear delivery date while no visible groundwork had even begun. This left our family effectively displaced and forced us into temporary living arrangements, creating significant financial hardship and emotional stress. We relied on the information provided by the dealership when making major decisions about our housing, and that reliance directly impacted our living situation.
Communication has been one of the most frustrating parts of this process. Instead of receiving clear timelines, accountability, or meaningful solutions, we were repeatedly told that “these things happen” and that no exact date could be given. While we understand delays can occur, removing a customer’s current residence without having a realistic and dependable installation schedule in place is unacceptable.
We did ask for reimbursement for the additional financial hardship and out-of-pocket expenses we have incurred as a direct result of these delays, and this has failed to be addressed by anyone. That level of disregard for a customer facing displacement and unexpected expenses is deeply disappointing. Very disappointed in this company. For something as important as a family home, customers deserve transparency, accurate expectations, and support when delays create hardship.
I strongly encourage anyone considering working with this location to get all timelines, delivery dates, setup schedules, and any protections related to displacement or delays in writing before agreeing to remove an existing home. We would welcome direct contact from management or corporate to address these concerns and work toward a fair resolution.

This review is for Mike ** and his team only. The construction side of our project. We went to Clayton Homes in Lacey on a recommendation in Septemberish of 2024 after a tragic incident occurred. Our home burnt to the ground in May of 2024. We were working with our insurance with the situation (which turned out to be a nightmare and is still ongoing) so the beginning of our journey was back and forth. After coming to a signed agreement and figuring out all of the paperwork and office side of things (palm to face...see other review), we got to meet Mike. Mike ** from the start made me feel heard, seen and respected. His whole vibe stands on integrity, honesty and hard work. In the two-year nightmare it took to get our kids back into a home, at no fault of his own or his team, Mike always communicated and stayed in touch letting me know every update and what was happening. If I had questions, he answered them.
When his team started showing up to our property I was nervous only because of the chaos in every direction this situation has caused us. David and his crew were just as great (from being personable to giving me updates on what they did and what was to come next). I never felt stupid or uneducated when they explained things so I could understand them. I looked forward to seeing what they had accomplished in a day and loved that it wasn't a "hostile environment" and I never had to make sure my kids were not within ear shot. Always professional and family friendly. When Mike and his crew finished their side of things, he saw what was happening. He stayed professional but made me feel as though we mattered even more.
The cost?!? As you can imagine we had MULTIPLE bids to help us figure out what our options were, he was by far the most fair, reasonable and affordable option we were presented. He even did extra things to help our family that he absolutely did not have to do nor was he obligated but he did it out of the kindness of his heart truly showing what an exceptional human being he is.
All I can say after going through everything from A to Z is YOU WANT MIKE ** to help you with your project. It's a shame everything else happened but he was always the light in the middle of the dark. This office has no reflection on Mike or his Crew. I fully plan on calling Mike back for ANY and ALL future projects that are coming in our journey to rebuild our lives. The ** Family will ALWAYS remember you all and be so grateful for everything you did for us.
Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding our team members and your experience. We appreciate you, Savannah!

We recently purchased a Clayton Manufactured home and received our CO in late August 2025. This home was sent from the Waycross Ga plant. We noticed soft flooring throughout the house almost immediately. We have asked for the qualifications of the gentlemen that is coming to repair the flooring and are still waiting for an answer. The reason being is we just had a leaking issue with water coming in through the exhaust fan in the spare bathroom. They sent out an Apartment Painter to fix the issue when a roofer should have been sent. A painter is not legally authorized to perform shingle, metal, or flashing repairs according to Florida.
According to Florida law, anyone performing roofing work—including repairing leaks, Fixing flashing, or sealing penetrations around vents must be a licensed roofing contractor as set forth by the Florida Department of Business Professional Regulation fixing flashing, or sealing penetrations around vents—must be a licensed roofing contractor, as set by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation. Any further warranty repairs will be in writing and a copy of the occupational license presented to me as well as a written scope of work to be preformed will also be present to be before anything else is done. All I can say is how are they getting away with all this without penalty? I am looking into that as well.
In December 2025, our contractor addressed unsealed areas under your home and minor duct leaks in the attic, which may relate to your flooring concerns. We did not observe bottom board sagging but can check during repairs. Repairs will start in bedroom #2 and continue room by room, including item removal, sealing, decking replacement, and new linoleum installation. The process should take one week; timing may change if needed. All work will follow HUD Code, and a dumpster will be provided.

This purchase was the biggest mistake of my life!! If it can go wrong it has!! Salesperson, my neighbor, nice, friendly. We have been lied to SO MANY TIMES by pretty much everyone in this company. Repairs have been done, most times repeatedly because they cannot seem to do anything right the first time. Our current issue, which has been ongoing since the first time our furnace was used (over a year now & so many bandaid fixes it’s insane & still not fixed!
Clayton Homes, all seasons & supply, & carrier have all denied responsibility and in the meantime our furnace has caught fire twice!! Their response might as well have been … but did you die?? I can only highly recommend not buying anything from clayton homes. At the very least you must read the endless complaints nationwide on the lack of support and known issues for years that continue to be a problem. There is no excuse for unreturned calls, ignoring your customers after the sell, and refusing to replace defective items ESPECIALLY SOMETHING AS LIFE THREATENING AS A DEFECTIVE FURNACE!! I could go on & on however it is obviously POINTLESS!! Do not buy from this company!! You will regret it!! ** will not accept photos here** 🤬🤬
Hi Guy, thank you for sharing this feedback with us. Clayton Homes strives to provide world-class customer care, and we regret to hear of your frustrations. Our home office has spoken with you on several occasions and let you know that the HVAC coordinator would be scheduling service, as this is not a Clayton issue and it is between the HVAC carrier and the manufacturer.

Buyer beware. Paid 180 grand. Post purchase, 6 months to get ac fixed in summer. Replaced front glass door, sliding glass door due to bad frame damage, stove countertop broken, vent covers flooding in master bath due to faulty installed pipes, squeeky floors joint to conceal connection of both halves separation, ceiling seams visible with extra mud on them, making them stand out. Master shower was 6 grand upgrade, has 2 cracks, we were told it will be fixed, not replaced but fixed. There is so many more things to many to name. So if you want a good built home, don't go to Clayton Homes in Aug Ga. They are lazy and the handymen aren't very handy. They are waiting for the warranty to run out. The worst buy ever, we are in our 60s, so we won't spend 30 years paying it off. Good luck.

Nails wanting to come through the vinyl flooring. Cabinets are poorly built. Had one starting to come apart. The door frame. Way overpriced on insurance. They got the insurance for us 1207 a year. Called Allstate. Got it for 430 a year and better coverage. Thinking about letting BBB know about their practices.

I went to Rockhill SC, they lie about everything! Once they make a sale you're a nobody! The quality of work is extremely poor! Not to mention they say they will fix things and don't! Worst mistake of my life, they took advantage of me in so many ways!!! I couldn't imagine working for a company who scams people the way they do!

Bought my house new and it has simple cosmetic damages. Not anything to raise a stink about. Now I have to take apart my bathroom to figure out why it’s freezing all the time, why it smells like cat pee, and why there are always bugs. Lo and behold they left a giant hole under my tub and animals are coming in through it! I called and they told me there’s nothing they can or will do because I’m out of warranty. This has been the biggest mistake and I hope no one else makes it.

This is the cheapest made house for the price we paid. We had laminate flooring placed throughout the house, and it was improperly installed! It was wrinkled and rolled along the entire floor. The installers left the flooring wrinkled and Clayton Homes pasted its inspection. The closets were not finished and when I asked about it, I was told, “Clayton homes don’t finish the closets inside.” There were large gaps between the closet door frame and the wall itself. The trim lining the walls, fall off just walking past it. One of the bedroom walls was not fully attached and it could be moved by our five year old.
Our cabinets look as though scrap pieces of wood were used to build the cabinets! My husband had to install strips of boards inside the bathroom cabinets to hold the toilet paper holder onto the cabinets. The shelves in the kitchen cabinets were installed upside down. Before moving in, we found mold on top of one of the cabinets and it was suppose to have been replaced. We have never received the replacement cabinet and it’s been over a year! My husband was moving something and fell against the island cabinet, his shoulder broke through the cabinet back because the material used was very thin! The “all house vent”, is only a bathroom vent that has been placed in the ceiling of the hall. It doesn’t have enough power to use. It also leaks water and we are always mopping the hallway. If you are sitting on the toilet in the master bath, expect to be dripped on from the vent overhead.
If we have an emergency and would need to climb out the windows, we will need to use something to break the window, because we are not able to open them. The windows stick and it takes a strength to open. When I called to asked for the windows to be adjusted, the men came out, put screws in the framing and told me, “they’re good!” I tried explaining, the windows are still not able to open by myself or children, and the man told me, “they open by him and it needs to settle.” It’s been over a year, and our windows still need to be strong armed opened! So much for fresh air and emergency opening! I can continue a long list of things with this Clayton built home, because every day is something different. Clayton has cut corners building their homes, but expect the buyer to pay high prices and not complain.

I had been looking for my forever home and stopped in Clayton homes and was greeted by Lisa. She has been such a big help with everything from designing to answering questions, even on her off days. Always so pleasant to talk to. Everyone at Clayton homes at Woodlawn is very nice when I stop by to speak with Lisa.

For the past few years, my husband and I have been thinking of placing a second home in Virginia. In November when driving to our VRBO, we passed Clayton Homes on Carrollton Pike in Woodlawn. We decided that once settled in, we would visit Clayton Homes. During our first visit, Lisa ** listened to what we were looking to do and provided us with the opportunity to visit a model. It was as if Lisa intuitively knew what we wanted as the model and the layout had everything we had in mind.
Fast forward to our visit in February, and Zach ** and Lisa showed the highest level of professionalism taking the time to: evaluate the property we own; evaluate the best placement of what is needed to build our second home; assist with our desire to place our home on a different lot; provide guidance; and answer our questions. Lisa and Zach consistently demonstrate a high level of knowledge, provide continual support and maintain continual communication as we work through the process of being a second home. We feel highly confident with the craftsmanship and quality of the Clayton home we selected as it includes all that we wanted including the way the home is laid out.
We look forward to our continued working partnership with Clayton Homes, Zach and Lisa as our second home is being built and placed. We highly recommend anyone looking to build a high quality home in the Southwestern region of Virginia to reach out to the highly professional team at Clayton Homes in Woodlawn, Virginia.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Mary!

Should be "0" star. Mobile Home we purchased from on May 1, 2024. Because of the company’s repeated failures to deliver a safe, functional, and habitable product, we are currently evaluating all available options to protect our family's health and financial interests. Since the day of delivery, this home has been riddled with unacceptable structural and cosmetic defects. Chief among these concerns is the substandard flooring installed throughout the home. The original build quality was remarkably poor; subflooring sections did not align, were entirely unlevel, and were missing necessary structural brackets. This resulted in severe dips and soft spots across the entire residence.
Rather than correctly addressing the root cause, your manufacturer attempted a series of shoddy patch jobs that only exacerbated the problem. Ultimately, when Clayton crew returned to repair the subfloor with what they now claim to be a "better quality" material, they discovered widespread mold and mildew throughout the existing subflooring. The discovery of extensive mold in a brand-new home is not just a structural failure; it is a direct hazard to our safety.
By removing us from the home and placing us in temporary housing, Clayton Manufactured Homes has effectively acknowledged the severity of these damages and accepted liability for these uninhabitable conditions. You have put us out of a brand-new home for repairs that never should have been necessary in the first place.
The consequences of their negligence have been devastating to our family and our livelihood: Health and Safety: Every member of our household has suffered physical illness as a direct result of the mold, mildew, and unsafe conditions you allowed to fester in this home. Loss of Income and Career Disruption: Both of us work from home. The endless cycle of inadequate repairs and our subsequent displacement has severely disrupted our ability to work over the past year and a half.
Severe Emotional Distress: The compounding stress of living in a defective, unsafe home has been so overwhelming that the woman of our household was forced to take a mental disability leave. Loss of Enjoyment: We purchased this home to build our future. Instead, we have not been able to celebrate this home as a family for even a single day, as we have yet to receive the safe, functional home we paid for.
