MERITAGE HOMES

OUR OVERALL EXPERIENCE IS OK. INITIALLY WE RECEIVED GREAT SERVICE BUT IT QUICKLY WENT DOWN HILL. THE FLOORPLAN WE SELECTED WAS NEWLY ADDED TO THEIR LIST OF FLOORPLANS FOR SALE. THEY SOLD US THE HOME BEFORE HAVING THE PLANS APPROVED BY THE CITY, WHICH CAUSED DELAYS IN THE START PROCESS. ONCE CONSTRUCTION BEGAN WE HAD TO WATCH THE BUILDER VERY CLOSELY. THE BUILDING TEAM DID NOT PROPERLY REVIEW THE PLANS PRIOR TO BEGIN THE BUILD SO THEY INCORRECTLY APPLIED SIDING INSTEAD OF BRICK ON MUCH OF THE HOUSE. IN ORDER TO HAVE THE HOUSE COMPLETED PROPERLY, THE SIDING HAD TO BE REMOVED, OUR EXTERIOR WALLS HAD TO BE MOVED AND THEN BRICK WAS APPLIED. SEVERAL OTHER OF THE ERRORS MADE INCLUDE OUR WALK IN PANTRY WAS INITIALLY MADE A WALK IN CLOSET, OUR MASTER SHOWER WAS MADE 1 FOOT TOO SHORT AND OUR UPGRADED CABINET DRAWER SET WAS INITIALLY A REGULAR CABINET. I WAS IN MY LAST TRIMESTER OF MY FIRST PREGNANCY AT THE TIME COMPLETION NEARED SO THEY DID DO THEIR BEST TO COMPLETE THE HOUSE IN TIME FOR BABY.
