David Weekley Homes

Premier builder is not the choice of words i would choose to describe DW. I absolutely regret purchasing a new David Weekley home, "you get what you pay for" rings true with them. David Weekley hires the lowest bid and lowest skill contractors, the work that is produced by some of these contractors is equivalent to someones first do it yourself project. There is absolutely ZERO communication between David Weekley and the subs they hire, i have taken off almost a total of 30 days from work over the course of the last 2 years waiting for subs to arrive to complete warranty work only to no show, or reschedule because the scope of work was not properly explained and they were no equipped to handle it or only to leave with a even worse job. DW produces some of the worst build quality i have ever seen in a new construction home to list a few of the issues that David Weekley considers "normal" in my home. - Front door/frame not straight - Tile in the master bath has variances in grout ranging from 1/16th of a inch up to a inch thick, David Weekleys explanation is "the wall isn't straight". You would think one would have relatively straight walls in a brand new home right? Or if the drywall/wood is bad that it would be discarded during the build process. Not with David Weekley - I have been dealing with a leaking shower door for almost 2 years, every single time they send out someone to "repair" the shower all they do is apply silicone around the shower door and leave, this has happened 4x times, i have specifically asked that someone actually troubleshoot the issue instead of blindly applying silicone this has not happened. - Front/Back lawns are not graded properly and water sits for days preventing grass from growing in some spots, nor is the ground properly leveled, you'll roll an ankle just walking through one of the lawns. - When the water heater engages i can hear the pipes moving in the wall 2 rooms away...no fix, their response is "its normal". - 18 months into home ownership i deiced to rip out the carpet and install laminate, the floor is so uneven its comical, with variances as high as 1 inch. Builder response is "its impossible to have a perfectly level floor". I know houses 30 years old with more levels floors.... -Fit and finish is rough, during closing everything looks nice but 90 days into it once the paint and cauckling shrinks the quality of material and overall touch up is disgusting. Some of the material looks like it came from a discard pile. - DW cannot control or communicate with their subs at a basic level, we would speak with a DW rep about one item and come to an agreement, a sub would come out and quite literally preform the opposite of what we talked about, this is actually the standard vs the exception. We have not had 1 Spencerian where a contractor came out and properly completed warranty work without having to come back another 2-3 times.

Wow where to begin. All I can say is we our SHOCKED. Me and my wife purchased what we wanted to be our new life in Arizona. We have spent thousands already since we were going to be relocating from Chicago. We even relocated our business which is food trucks we were all in. Then one day the pandemic hit there is no work for our trucks in Arizona at all or even Chicago we have been hit hard financially. The next thing that happened was our lender called us and said due to the Coronavirus pandemic the loan program we pre qualified for was removed we were using the income from our business to verify income. Also even if the loan program wasn't removed the income was zero now so don't thjnk it would have mattered. We let David Weekly know ASAP since there was still two months before our house would be finished so they could begin to market it to sell. We bought the largest lot in the development and picked the most neutral beautiful white cabinets and upgrades the house is perfect. Let me add the development is also sold out so in my past that means the house has already even went up in value. It is in Blaclstone Country club which is also perfect there would be no problem selling this as a spec home they sold the model the week it went up ans we decorated this one based on that. So after informing our sales rep Karen and building GM Mike of our situation and hardship since they have $50,000 of our earnest money they sent a letter and a phone message stating oh sorry you won't be closing on your home but we CANNOT REFUND YOUR $50,000 they wanted us to sign a paper releasing the funds to them. We have retained an attorney now who feels very strongly about them refunding our hard earn money. Any family in the world now with 5 children know how hard it is wothout work and for a company as large as FAVID WEEKLY to try to cheat a family out of there money is very unfair in a time when the United States need to come together and support each other. I would understand if the house was lived in or used in some way or we requested pink cabinets and yellow flooring but that not the case and David Weekly has shown ZERO SYMPATHY FOR WHAT PEOPLE ARE GOING THRU ZERO I hope everyone remebers the good companies wjen this is over and blesses them with there business and not these others who have taken advantage durring these times AWFUL BEHAVIOR ON THE WHOLE COMPANIES PART THEY SHOULD BE ASHAMED. ON another hand SHASTA POOLS is AMAZING they returned our money and deposit in one minute when we asked and was also shocked to hear of a builder trying to CHEAT PEOPLE OUT OF THERE MONEY DURRING CORONVIRUS I THINK THE COURT SYSTEM WILL AGREE. I WILL UPDATE THIS AFTER WE TAKE THEM TO COURT please Spread this review to as many people as possible and we will be using every social media network to do the same

After spending over $500k for our dream home it’s been disappointment one after the other. Problems since the day we closed that have now continued after our one year warranty. We now have tiles cracking across the master bathroom which the build is claiming are normal. Flooring in the kitchen area that has recently started to warp and seems to get worse each week. Pot filler that has been bent and lose since we move in...( claim it’s normal) cracked patio that was hidden with a skim coat and has had to be replaced once. Cracking garage floors and outdoor electric outlets that trip breakers. I am not having to hire an engineer and having secondary experts come out to take a look. This house was a mistake and will only cause further heartache and disappointment in the future.

I bought a house from Weekley Homes in May 2018. The house flooded the day after I moved in due to the builder stapling through a main water line. In November 2018, I was evacuated from my home due to a major gas leak that had existed since before I moved in. In Sept 2019, my laundry home flooded (my fault); however, the drain in the floor captured no water. The builder now tells me that I should have put a drain pan in and that drain was never mean to capture more than 5% of water. This is directly opposite of what they told when I inquired about the need to buy one. Never buy a home from David Weekly Homes. They do shoddy work.

My wall has water leak too unbelievable quality I write review on the website for one star the delete my review. The keep the 5 star in the website deleted the bad review I wiil never buy the home

We built and purchased our DWH home in Denver, CO (Stapleton) in 2017. We have been nothing but overjoyed by the quality of their workmanship, service, and attention to detail. During our design/build, DWH unfortunately went through some personnel changes. We ended up with three different builders through the 6-month build out. That said, each time our next builder was a consummate professional - with a hand off, overview, and completing their tasks. My LOVE of DWH came after our 12-month warranty ended. As you can imagine, after 12-months in a house is truly when you start to know the house - you notice seasonal changes and also start to understand what issues/changes aren't seasonal. It was after the 12-month warranty we had a few issues with our insulation near our master bedroom. I asked our warranty rep for a few pointers (as I assumed being out of the warranty period we were out of luck), but they instead came out the next week to take a look. As it was a DWH oversight, they will be completing the repair at no cost to me. It would be so much easier (and expected!) for DWH to say, well, the warranty time period is over. However, they stand by their work and are ready to make corrections. Not only that, but our lead warranty rep in Stapleton has been a pleasure to work with. All home builders are different - but the long-term service is what really matters and quite frankly, is likely what makes you build new vs. buying an existing home. If you want someone to be a long-term partner in the health and life of your home, DWH is the builder for you.

We like our home. It took a little longer to build than we initially were told. Our builder was good but I think DW gave him too many projects, so at times, he was difficult to get a hold of.

My wife and I have recently put down earnest money on DW home in Kyle TX. While I’ve read many reviews regarding DW, many of the comments posted here concearn me. Should we be worried? Everyone at DW has been terrific to work with so far. Thanks in advance for any comments or feedback.

There was a lot of water getting into the walls because there was no flashing installed even though the exact same houses as ours on the street had flashing. At first I was told it was a maintainence issue and on me. Once they figured it out, the tried to fix it, but with constant push back. It was like pulling teeth. Today there is still moisture from somewhere and I’m stil getting push back to come and fix it properly. #dontbuydavidweekleyhomes

David Weekly is a highly valued trade partner to us. We've been with them for almost two decades now and love working with them. They build a great home. Steve Morgan is wonderful to work with, you can tell he really cares. We often collaborate on our projects to communicate and come up with the best solutions for the home owner. Thanks David Weekly!

Deceitful sales agents! I was looking to build a home in their Lehi,Utah subdivision.During initial meetings with their sales agent Alisha Madsen we emphasized the importance of a large garage and large backyard. We decided on the calabash floor plan because Alicia boasted about the huge 3 car tandem garage and then she helped us pick the lot it would work on so we would have in her words a “huge” backyard. Long story short they began to build our home. The garage was more like barely a 2 car with a bit of space in the back for storage. We currently live in a basic cookie cutter home with very little upgrades and our current garage is 16 inches wider than weeklys garage. Also, the backyard was only 25 feet in depth when Alicia had told us it would be 45-50. To add insult to injury even the construction manager, who was a great individual, saw things in the same light as we did but there was nothing they could offer for their misinformation. Needless to say we cut our losses.

We've had two David Weekley Homes in Jacksonville. The first one we built in 2000 and just sold never had any issues. With our new home we were able to select everything including cabinets, electrical, hardware, and paint - almost too many choices. They even moved a window to accommodate extra cabinets. Watching the care and "extras" that go into the home as it is built was fascinating. There was a lot of extra stuff they put on the roof and walls (sorry I'm not technical) and behind the scenes plumbing stuff that they said would avoid problems down the road. Based on 17 years in my first DWH home I would agree with that. Buying a new home is a little scary worrying the builder will do it right, but this time I didn't have to worry at all
