Dubose Custom Homes

the construction site was very messy and the project was slow moving

Run. As fast as you can. I bought a spec home from Dubose Construction and have had one nightmare after the next. David clearly hasn't the first clue how to build a quality home, manage subs, or inspect the work. And the customer service is a joke. He did nothing he committed to prior to closing and I had to fight battle after battle to get him to fix it. Then, I had to deal with a myriad of post-closing issues such as, but not limited to: Water issues from poor grading Front door header not strong enough Garage not built to spec (and then he tried to say it didn't need a garage door - on a $600k house? What???) Floored over air vents (that's right, I had no air vents) Stoned over fireplace switch; mortared grate shut; no remote. It looked good, though. Electricity shorting out due to nails in wire Flooding due to nails in pipes Cement not poured to code and cracking 70 year old pIpe to house not replaced after "knock down" so not enough water pressure for sprinklers to pop upIssue with air intakes No priming on paint (that's really fun when it peels after 3 months)That's just a quick starter list. I'm not kidding when I tell you it was 2 straight years of construction and fighting to get him to do the right thing. Now, the fascia board is rotting on a 4 year old house and multiple people have confirmed shoddy design/ construction. I asked David to simply describe to me why he built it the way he did - to give him the chance to redeem himself - but he won't return phone calls or emails. So, I joined Angie's List just so I could let you know what you can expect. He has no ability and less integrity.

We're glad we chose to rent because we did not like our experience with him. We feel that he treated us in an unfair manner and we constantly felt that we needed to protect ourselves from him. He also failed to return our security deposit with in the requirment of the lease. I chose not to renew a lease or buy his home because of my frustrations in dealing with him.
