Company information:
Keystone Custom House
United States

I recently bought a home from Keystone Homes because I had read great reviews and heard that they build nice homes. However less than year into my home and I have been fighting to get my warranty work completed.

To get my driveway corrected took eight months. The company working for Keystone even told me to stop calling. My siding is peeling away and they have not yet put a work order in, after three months. I called the siding and made my own work order and they told me that they have not heard anything about coming to look at my house. The doors on my house do not line properly and have had to replace all my locks. After the winter the flowerbed and other areas around my house had settlement up to a Foot. What they decided to do is drop off clay not even dirt in my front yard and leave it up to me. So why did I buy a brand new house with a warranty, from keystone it so I can do all the work. Also I had a customer rep. quit half way through my first year. I found out that I was lied to by Keystone. The way I found out is because some of the items were listed as complete and I was inquiring about getting them fixed. Another complaint I have is ALL my trim work is pulling away and the caulk is cracked and missing, KEYSTONE HANDED ME A TUBE OF CAULK IT IS YOUR PROBLEM.

Also Keystone lied to me about my land. They said it would be level and it is not and the final grade is less than satisfactory. The yard has divots all through it and you can see exactly were they buried wood, rocks, concrete, and singles. All you have to do is look for the spots with no grass. They also told me I could plant trees in the back where a gas line is, that was not true. I was also told I could put a playground set on the line, since no digging is required, that also was not true. So now I have land that I can not do anything to because I told misleading information throughout the entire time about what I can and can not do.

So buyers beware!!!

oh i agree with u 100% about everything u have said. my wife and i also have bought a home from Keystone custom homes. located in Koller Pointe . New Freedom. every1 that we have talked to have had issues with there homes . u email the construction manager and it takes awhile . if at all for him to return with a answer. ohhhhhh the promises sound good . but it takes forever to see anything happen. we have alot of things wrong with our house along with our neighbors. i am waiting to see what happens, and what there going to tell us at the 11 month walk through. ill be honest . the over all construction of the house is good. but the inside work, i think me 8 year old could do a better job. the dry is the worst i have ever seen . i mean i finished off my basement at my old house myself . and i did a better job with the dry and paint then these so call professionals did. thank god im handly and able to do alot of different things, cause i know ill be doing it . i have a funny feeling that everything that we will be pointing out to them soon will be .thats ur problem not ours from them . i feel sorry for the people that have no clue how to do things around there house .

My wife and I moved into the Marietta location. Already the walls are warping, cracks are coming through the floors, roof leaks and cracking in the stone. You can tell by the way they put the houses up they are trying to set some kind of speed record- or are crunched for time. Whichever, the quality sucks. I've talked to other people in the neighborhood and I've never lived somewhere that everyone has a story of negative dissent. These people from start to the settlement table look at you and smile, promise ice on the sun and are so fake...but you don't realize it until AFTER you buy the house. I'm concerned the house will still be standing when it comes time to sell it in 10 years. I could list all the inside issues, but it would do no good. They run their business like a military organzization, the reps, service managers, project managers seem to be on pins and needles and scared to death about losing their jobs if they do anything "outside of the book". They put what we were told would be "Upscale apartments" mixed with the new homes that we dished out over $250, 000 for and now find out the rent is $750.00, inviting hoodlums and less then desirable inhabitants. And instead of the 2-3 units they said they were going to build, they're all over us! I don't even feel safe at night. People keep in mind behind those fake smiles and salesmanship talk they don't give a damn about you, they just want you to buy a house.

My what an ego !! Mike, you want to feel sorry for those that are not as gifted as you !! I bought a house from Keystone back in 2004 and yes I had it checked by a independant home inspector before signing the dotted line. And I have no problems with my house. Imagine that !!, its called following basic rules of purchasing a house. Also start trying to be more professional over the phone when talking with their customer service.

To PA_Home_buyer,
You bought your home in 2004. Keystone had competition back then. The company has changed considerably since then so you are not as lucky as the rest of us who are stuck in crappy houses and crappier neighborhoods. Also, it doesn't matter how nice you speak to anyone at Keystone, the standard response is no response and worse, no resolution. To quote my favorite salesman in Marietta, "That's a good question."

Come on... I am going to have to say that there are posts on here from 3 diferent people with complaints... one without...

Based on the numbers, if Keystone builds 250-300 homes annually... I would say you're the exception, not the rule. You cannot make everyone happy, and you're the ones that weren't made happy.

"Everyone I talk to says the same thing"... I am sure, they don't want to tell you that you're difficult to deal with and have unrealistic expectations. Go ruin someone else's business... I bet you're the "perfectionist" when it comes to others work, but can't carry your weight at your job.
