Champion Home Builders

Bought in 2006 brand new double wide we’ve had nothing but problems the home is damn near condemned at this point. All the floors have crumbled and need replaced the ceiling has leaked several times and all the walls are messed up cheapest material ever

we got this little house. it has a lot of nails in trim the walls had places that looked like got wet and raised up , some trim was coming off so the just took a staple gun and hit it about 10 times in a 6 inches .her are pictures.

We bought a new double wide Moble home from Champion in December of 2018 we moved in on September 3 2019, not only did they over charge us, because we had all the permits, electrical, and septic already on the property, when we signed the contract with them they brought the cost of permits at around 100, 000 dollars but I explained those were already paid and in. He said that they had to have it in the loan but we would get the over payment back at closing escrow. That didn’t happen and the salesman no longer works there so they would not do anything, so they charged us over 120, 000 just to put it on our property. If that wasn’t enough within 15 months a third of my roof blew off. When I called them they said that it must have been a act of God, yeah right but they did come and repair it. But within a few months it happened again and they are now telling me that again it was a act of god and they refused to correct it even though no one around us had any damage, now we have water damage on our ceiling. Which goes with the problems with our electricity in our kitchen which flips off when we plug in our can opener, plus so much more. If anyone can let me know if anyone has a way to make them pay. By the way we live in sunny California so it’s not like we have bad weather.

All the contents you mentioned in post is too good and can be very useful. I will keep it in mind, thanks for sharing the information keep updating, looking forward for more posts.Thanks deck builder newport beach

My poor 90 year old Mom just closed on this brand new piece of crap Aug 20, 2019 and moved in Sept 1. Bad workmanship all the way. Shower doors that leak(took them out myself re-tiled) and put up a curtain), closet doors full of splinters and fall off the railing(replaced at my own cost, no help from manufacturer or sleazy seller), kitchen outlets not working, cracks coming back, squeaky floors, non functional medicine cabinet, and the absolute worst appliances ever. Have already had to have service on the crappy washer twice (brand new, used successfully 3 times)...not to mention the sewer backing up because the fools had a bolt going through the sewer line. The list goes on and on! I'm hoping we can unload this albatross before it falls apart completely and have Mom find something reliable. As for me, I would live in a used refrigerator box before spending 50K + on crap like this!

Our new home has cracks on cracks floor creaks and told im sol
not great workmanship

My parents purchased a champion home in June of 2018- was finally delivered in November of 2018-Champion Homes took longer than quoted for manufacturing, so much so my father did not live to ever see it completed or move in. My mother is not living there because she is gravely ill and the dust from any type of texture work will aggravate her condition, yet we continue to pay the mortgage and space rent on something she cant move into until everything is corrected.
Immediately upon walking into the unit we discovered numerous defects and shabby workmanship, not to mention all the defects on the exterior
- Uneven texture throughout the entire home. huge holes around the light switches, trowel marks, clumps, divots, uneven walls and ceilings-
- Electrical outlets that do not work, light that does not work, missing GFI sockets
- toilets were loose and rocking-
- every towel & toilet paper fixture installed unevenly
- Sconces in master bathroom were supposed to be installed centered over the basins and they are not
- paid for the upgraded cabinetry throughout the house to be slow close- they either dont close, are uneven or slam shut
- paid for upgraded "trays" in living room and bedrooms only to have cracks, unpainted
- canister lighting is not flush with ceilings and there are gaps, some don't work
- cracks everywhere in the house, corners, ceilings, windows, crack in ceiling that goes from kitchen into living room
- baseboards were never painted - they simply have the primer on them- this is throughout the house everywhere including window casings with primer
- tile work in the kitchen grout is done poorly and has bubbles and missing grout
-creaky floor boards
- When they painted the outside of the home the painters got spray everywhere including on the upgraded deck they paid for the front porch
- they did not paint the fencing on the front porch or the steps to the side entrance

We have tried calling Champion numerous times to the issues resolved only for them to tell us send a list or call the distributor that sold it to my parents. They say their homes are built with the highest of quality and according to HUD - and that the homes do not leave them without being inspected (inspector must be blind or off that day)

The distributor says to call the manufacturer and vise versa- I even had the so called service manager from Champion homes and his assistant yell at me like this is all my fault that I want them to fix their substandard shoddy work. They told me if i didn't like their response to file a report with HUD - how is that for customer service? They don't even try to help or say they will work with us to get it fixed.

My next complaint will be to HUD, Better Business Bureau, Consumer Affairs and anyone else I can file a complaint with until this matter is resolved to the standard we were sold on in the model. I wished we had seen all the complaints on this site before they had purchased, we would have persuaded them not to buy this poor quality, poor workmanship unit.

I moved into a new home on 2-1-2019 in Texas City, TX. I have sent multiple lists of repairs that need to be done. I have only heard once from the person who I sent the lists to and still no date has been set up to make any repairs. I am very disappointed in the construction of the home.
