Bloomfield Homes Reviews

Cheap materials for way over priced home.

I have raised lot of concerns when buying home , which was not fixed by builder and even after purchase I sent him all the picture but he never fixed it , builder was awful in fixing issues and I didn’t feel quality was that great .

We have moved almost a month ago and lots of things are not fixed yet- we are still messaging builders to fix things . Looks like should have go for different builder.

Cheap materials Response time is slow. Terrible service overall!

Initially we thought the entire experience had been great. However, upon moving in there were several things that caused us to lose some of the excitement. When the internet company came to establish service it was found that the outside coax home run wires were missing. When I spoke to Leeroy about the issue I was initially told, “that’s your home now you have to contact everyone directly.” While I understand this fact, it had only been a few days since closing and this was an issue that should have been noticed by the builder. We contacted the builder(Floyd) who advised us to contact the electrician directly. Once the electrician came out it was discovered that the brickers bricked over the necessary wires. The Sheetrock was cut and we have been waiting over three weeks and still have not received any correspondence as to when it will be replaced and painted. We also discovered a crack in our tub that was caulked instead of replaced. The garage structure also has a large crack that was painted over. We still love our home, however these issues have left a sense of distrust in the builder. ... More

We bought a home from Bloomfield in April of 2023. The house looks nice but immediately after moving in it became clear that the quality of materials used and the quality of the labor hired to build it were subpar, especially at this price point. Within 6 weeks we’ve noticed cracked sinks, peeling paint, defective tiles, damage to our front door that was identified during the pre-closing inspection and still not addressed. Everything is made of particle board rather than actual wood and some trim in the kitchen is already peeling. The sales manager, Chris, is a pleasant guy and I genuinely appreciate his efforts to help us post purchase. Unfortunately, whoever actually oversaw this home being built (I believe his name is Brad) did a poor job. My gut feeling is that I will ultimately need to fix these things myself, which defeats the point of buying a new house in the first place. ... More

Houses poorly made. Material is cheap. Still waiting for my screens to be put on. Garage (concert) unfinished. Shower floor is chipping. Kitchen Cabinets drawers (two) fell off the roller making it hard to open & close. I was told the floors were real hardwood I dnt think they are. The toilet (I have 3) were the cheapest toilets BF could. I already replaced 1, i will be replacing the other 2. Made a report got no response.

Warranty is not very good.,Have problem with the roof but they tell us as long it's not leaking it doesn't matter what it looks, like have ridges from ply wood not seated or warped bad craftsmanship.Seems Bloomfield does not care how their homes look like.

Bloomfield Homes Maplewood 2 is a subdivision where they feel we should receive less than the others home like Tree-farms, Daniel Farm. We should receive all the same type of attention and what we ask for at the time of picking out our design. Every home should not all look alike! When someone build a home other shouldn’t be allowed to go into their home while being built! Project management shouldn’t sign off anything unless.. they have actually checked it! More attention need to be made and making sure the buyer are happy and satisfied. The contract workers doesn’t care where they leave their trash! Portal podding on owner grass…not unacceptable! Worker digging hole in owner grass and no one knows why. Outside lights doesn’t work and once again…no one have time or care. Quality should always be before quantity…period! Find a professional interior designer who knows how to pick color and trimmed to bring out people home! Communicate is very poor and still don’t understand why we couldn’t have Cedar garage like the other Bloomfield home. I feel great division… we should have two walkthrough and 90 days for repairs that wasn’t completed!!! I could go on and on but will stop!!! ... More

Bloomfield has the worst workmanship I’ve ever had! I’ve bought homes from KB homes, Richmond Homes, And Seeno homes, by far Bloomfield is the worst! You can see all the drywall tape, patching on walls door trim damages and baseboards damages! This is a new home and I am the first owner, but this home looks like someone lived here before damaged a bunch of stuff and they hired Mexicans from Home Depot’s parking lot to fix it!

Expensive and cheap material

If you are have a home built from the ground up, check as often as possible to ensure things are done correctly. If you are not sure what right, have someone who know to help out. Even with COVID-19 some things could have been handled better. Overall the home is beautiful,

Our house took 13 months to complete, was only supposed to take 6. Communication from the sales and builder side is awful. We didn't have a closing date until 2 days before we actually closed. End product of home was great, and they stand by their warranty but they need new sales staff and much better communication.

I bought the house because I knew I liked it from looking at photos online and reviewing the price. When I arrived at the community, the people working the sales office tossed us keys to a few houses and told me to take a look. A couple of those houses were 75-100k outside of my stated price range so they either weren't listening to me or they didn't care. I also had trouble getting basic answers to questions from them during the closing process. They were nice enough people, but I don't understand what they actually do there or why they are being paid.

I love my home now, but I did not enjoy the home buying process with the Bloomfield sales representative who I found difficult to work with as he often did not like to answer questions and was rude when he did not know the answer. I also received inaccurate information on many occasions. Also, the original project manager assigned to me was terrible and never provided me with updates. I had to ask for updates along the way and missed a lot of the home building progress because if this. I eventually was paired with an excellent project manager but this was only about a month before the home was completed. ... More

I do not wish the sales rep Fran on anyone. She looses all paperwork never remembers any. Basically had to send her screen shots to get my paperwork correct. As for Material home is great but the fence is horrible the first day in we had to start putting out money for it. We are 30 days in and over $600 that the builder would not fix. Its very bad. I have contacted warrity but no response.

The home process took too long and many repairs needed to be done when moving in.

The home is gorgeous.. worth all the unpleasantness we dealt with for a year.. we started out with an amazing property manager who was very open and honest and communicated great. I also appreciated the project manager for his honesty along the way.. I understand covid was also in play so we were as understanding as possible.. they let go of our property manager and brought in someone we don’t trust at all. We waited from March of 2021 and moved in March of 2022… spent a lot of money living month to month on apartments cause we were given a closing date 4 different times. The title company was rude before closing and even ruder at closing. You would think that the happiest moment of our life would be enjoyable but they were negative and not once smiled at us.. I am sooo happy to be done with the process because I WILL NEVER go through it again.. I am in my dream home and enjoying my family and the future. Won’t dwell on the past but since you asked I answered.. hope they get it together cause the house is worth it but the process was hell. ... More

Over all I do like my new house, but the ask of this survey is to rate my experience. First off the build was a month late. I know this build was in the middle of a pandemic, but the reality is it caused me to live out of my RV for a month. It also forced me to keep my household items in storage an extra month. Second blinds were written into my contract but did not get installed till after I moved in. I had to take time off from work trot them to finish something that should have been done before I moved in. Third is my front door was wrapped and was leaving a half inch gap between the weather stripping and the door. I feel this should have been caught by someone prior to me taking ownership. This problem has yet to be corrected. My last big complaint is the driveway. The curb is a gradual style curb,. The builder does not cut the curb when installing your drive way. The creates both a very anting bump and cause my daughters brand new civic to scrape. There is no way I will be able to have a sports car get into this driveway. Again I truly do like my house, but being late on the build, not paying attention to quality issues, not having all the work contracted complete for the closing date and the usability of the driveway gives my buying experience a low score. In all fairness Bloomfield is responsive to getting things corrected (except the driveway). ... More

We bought a home that had been finished for approximately 8 months. The list of major things that were wrong with the house upon the walkthrough were way too numerous given the length of time there was available to fix things. Leaking sprinklers, windows are not evenly set, gaps in the floor, holes in the floor, air vents hanging from the ceiling and the list goes on. Bloomfield was slow to fix the issues until a lengthy email was sent about all of the issues and referring to the house in a negative manner. We will never buy another Bloomfield home.

Started with one good sales agent, the agent then left and was replaced by a terrible one. Never would I imagine you would have to pull teeth to buy a house in a market where inventory is sitting vacant. The agent made the whole process annoying and terrible and still never met the agent given the agent was on vacation, again, the day I picked up my keys. Still have my name wrong and get contacts from people looking for someone that doesn't live here, thanks for that fun conversation with every one of the waranty people. I can only hope the commission went to the people that actually did the work, but that likely didn't happen. Craftsmanship is what you would expect from a builder that is just trying to get houses up and done. Not great but passable. I am a natural skeptic, so I cant tell you if they are trustworthy. Plenty of things in my experience that showed they are in the business to make money not be your friend. So trustworthy(ish). I'll post this with the display name simply because yall still dont have it right. ... More

Well, first of all the house was not professionally cleaned. I know I was out of state, but the Home Builder should have caught a lot of these problems. I've had to have warranty work fixed and I have an issue with having so many floor tiles to be replaced. Also, my two bathrooms need to be re-grouted and for being a new home they should've been grouted correctly the first time. I also have a window in my master bathroom that the windowsill is not finished so the workmanship is not there for me.

From start to finish, the lack of communication and poor customer service were glaring issues that made the entire process frustrating and stressful. First and foremost, the communication from Bloomfield Homes was abysmal. There were countless instances where I had to follow up multiple times to get any updates on the progress of my home. Simple questions often went unanswered for days or even weeks, leaving me in the dark about important decisions and timelines. Furthermore, when I did manage to get in touch with someone, the customer service was consistently subpar. Responses were often dismissive or unhelpful, and there was a noticeable lack of empathy or understanding for the challenges I was facing as a customer, primarily due to multiple changes with materials I selected and the quality of construction. Overall, my experience with Bloomfield Homes was a complete nightmare due to their lack of communication and poor customer service. I would strongly advise anyone considering their services to proceed with caution and explore other options that prioritize effective communication, customer satisfaction, and quality of workmanship. ...

We had a lot of issues before closing and builder was VERY slow with fixing them. We had to push closing date, because only half of the issues have been fixed.

Seller was great. I had lots of issues with the builder about not addressing issues I brought up during construction and prior to closing that were supposed to have been resolved. Whenever I reach out for an issue I got the feeling that he was irritated with my requests despite me having no irritation in paying the money for the house. This was a transaction - I pay and you deliver the goods as promised. Bloomfield did not keep their part as I am still dealing with repairs which is very inconveniencing as I have to adjust my work schedule. I have been very disappointed with this process and regret purchasing a home from this company and I have dissuaded people who have asked me from doing business with them. To date the work on the mold issue (brand new house) is still ongoing, the attic door has a draft coming in and I am still waiting for that repair. Other things have been fixed but I am so frustrated and tired of the back and forth with your company that I do not even want to bring the other issues I have noticed. I understand that nothing is perfect and mistakes will be made. What bothers me is the fact that whenever I reach out for an issue the impression I get is that I do not know what I am talking about. You are not doing me a favor, this was a business transaction and I have done my part and expect Bloomfield to do theirs. I would hope that me being a woman has nothing to do with it. ... More
