Started out ok, gave good sales pitch and seemed knowledgeable but then it was all downhill. Save yourself the headache and stress, go with a different contractor. The project started 2 mo behind schedule and finished (mostly) 3 months behind schedule. We were told we could use the subcontractors of our choice but when we tried, he found fault or did not communicate with them. Sweetwood gave the wrong plan to the concrete crew so the house was made bigger then it should have. He (Leon) did not tell us and we found out by measuring the walls on our own. We had to double check almost everything. Subcontractors were not scheduled timely and we often had to call them on our own for updates. We had said several times it was important to us to have the house closed in timely. The framers he brought in took over 6 weeks to do the framing (originally estimated at 3 weeks). Then it took them 4 weeks to return to complete the deck as it was left half finished. Sweetwood could not get anyone to put siding on our house and the siding materials were in the driveway for 6 weeks before my husband did it himself. The list of problems we found with our house is too long to list. When brought to Sweetwoods attention, we were told it is built to "industry standards." They say they do custom closets, well the shelving in our closets is custom, it looks like it was cut with a chainsaw with all the rough edges. There were bills that were not paid and Sweetwood tried to place blame with our title company. After review, it was on Sweetwoods end. Don't trust the Facebook or google reviews as they do not make public the non-favorable ones. The positive reviews are written by family and friends.
