Centex Homes Reviews

Centex was great while building our new home!

We are pleased with the quality and value of our new home. The service provided before and after the close has been exceptional. We would recommend Centex Homes to other home buyers.

I have had to put a ticket in 4x in one month (2) tkts were due to my downstairs not heating up. I have had the ac/heating company come out twice the first one shut vents on my 2nd floor and did an air balance check and still it did not help. The second time they came out they opened up the vents upstairs and told me to run the fan while running the heater still no big change in the way my downstairs feels. Now I believe im beginning to see a spot on my ceiling in my upstairs bathroom that cld be a roof leak. I also had an irrigation issue on the side of my home when I moved I was told this will be fixed and they did come out and replace sod. The side of my home is still "muddy" and I cant walk to my backyard without destroying another pair of shoes. So no in all honesty I have had too many issues for this to be a brand new home. ...

Great work by Chris and his team

Thanks for all the hard work you guys put in. Nate thank you for being understanding and calling/texting back in a timely matter. You guys are awesome and keep up the good work.

workmanship was great the builders were very accommodating any problems after closing they would come and get it done. I would definitely recommend Centex builders .

Not worth the price you paid

Workmanship lacking and very sloppy! Not impressed at all.

We are so happy with our new home. Our home is beautiful, everything is working correctly until now. The sales representative and construction manager are fantastic. We had a wonderful experience with Centex and Pulte group.

The sales person and project manager care about your experiences. However, It has been a challenge after closing with a couple of the vendors to get things repaired or corrected so be aware and stay on top of them.

Good experience for being a first time home buyer...

Overall im satisfied.

Great home

I have built homes in the past so far this builder has done very impressive work on workmanship.

Squeaky floors upstairs.

I'm overall very pleased with my new home. The construction manager was fantastic to work with and the Centex/Pulte made it simple to buy with great staff, a great website, and a nice design center. The home went up super fast and was ready almost a month ahead of when we thought. That's where I wish it had been different. There were many things evident that showed it was a rush job. On our final walkthrough, there were quite a few things that still needed to be taken care of. We gave them the benefit of the doubt. On our closing date after signing and receiving our keys, things were still being worked on. The overall home looked wonderful with no major concerns, but there were tiny issues with painting, electrical, carpet, and cabinetry that were rough around the edges. We've had to submit a few warranty claims to get things fixed within the first couple of months. I also wish I could have chosen my landscaping a bit more. Again, overall, I'm very pleased, but they could have taken their time on a few things and they would have still met our timeline goal. ... More

I love my new home; however, I feel that the service and response time from employees at Centex could be better. I understand that they have a lot of needs to be met but I wished they would answer emails timely!!

Centex is a good builder. We had a very good experience. The field manager was very good with his responses.

Generally speaking, the building process was very quick. Communication from the builder was usually good. The main issues we encountered was that the builder would provide a date of when XYZ would be installed to the home but then it rarely happened according to their timeline. Of course exterior items are weather permitting which we understood, but often times it was interior items and the weather had been fine. The builder that was over our home often gave what we considered a "non answer" or the run around when we asked if specific items in our home could be tweaked (i.e. very slight change in location of light fixture that ultimately was never actually done). We visited multiple homes under construction that were our same model that we chose to build and were familiar with what to expect. We noticed some homes included electrical outlets in the master closet but during the build of our home there was not one. When asked about this, our building manager explained that the workers don't always work the exact same way and utilize skills carried with them from various other home builders. While we decided not to argue about the installation of something as simple as an electrical outlet, we did not find this reasoning to be satisfactory. Every home should be built the exact same way. Upon moving into our home, we noticed LOTS of trash scattered in our backyard that which included sharp blades and nails everywhere. We have dogs and before we were able to allow them to use the yard we had to spend a good amount of time to clean up all the debris which we were not at all happy about. A home buyer who just spent several hundred thousand dollars should never have to do that. We picked up 3 full grocery sacks worth of metal and debris, some of which was simply covered up by a layer of sod. This is dangerous! What if other homes with children experienced this and were injured? We felt this was entirely lazy and inconsiderate of the construction crew and the builder for not ensuring this was properly taken care of. Otherwise, we were happy with the sales of the home, the majority of the building process was smooth and enjoyable and of course we love our new home. Now... we just have to submit a claim for our non-working disposal (we have been here 1 month and we have hardly used it... YIKES). ... More

Make sure u run the water all at the same time to make sure the plumbing was done correctly and don’t have issues

the contractor was great to work with . He was made sure all our concern was handle with care.

Our entire experience was great! From Monte and signing documents to our contractor! We loved all of it!

Overall very happy with Centex. The SmartHomes Salesman not so much. He is not honest, doesn't explain his product throughly and tried to price gouge us three times. The technicians should be selling this product as they are excellent. We will not recommend Smart Homes to anyone and will tell people not to use their products. Overall very happy with Centex and our new home.

Great home builder.

We're very happy with our new home
