Review for Stanley Martin Homes - Columbia Area
I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction with my experience with Stanley Martin Homes regarding their warranty and the issues related to water runoff and grading on my property.
When I purchased my home, I was assured that Stanley Martin stands by their warranty, which clearly states that water settlement should not exceed 24 hours. However, I have experienced persistent water issues that contradict this assurance. Despite being under the 12-month warranty period, I have reached out to Stanley Martin multiple times, but they have been unwilling to address or correct the landscape grading issues designed by both Stanley Martin and Saluda Hills.
I initially communicated my concerns to Tony Frate, the Warranty Manager, who unfortunately seems to act more as a gatekeeper than a problem solver. He consistently hides behind the warranty booklet, despite clear deficiencies right in front of him during his visits to my home.
Additionally, I spoke with the Construction Manager, Patrick, who repeatedly assured me before, during, and after closing that the excessive water runoff would not negatively impact my property. He promised that any issues would be rectified by Stanley Martin if they arose. Regrettably, none of these promises have been honored, leaving me feeling frustrated and unsupported.
I have documentation and photos to support my claims, and I am fully aware that public relations or marketing representatives may respond to this review to give the impression that they are working on resolving the issue. However, I want to emphasize that my experience has been far from satisfactory, and I will continue to keep everyone updated on the progress—or lack thereof—as this situation unfolds.
I hope this review helps others in the Columbia area make informed decisions when considering Stanley Martin Homes. Proceed with caution, as their warranty promises may not hold up when it matters most.

I purchased my home from Stanley Martin a month ago, and I must say, this has been the best home-buying experience I have had. From exceptional customer service to the outstanding quality of the home, every aspect has exceeded my expectations. This is my third home and second new build, and I am truly impressed.
I had the pleasure of working with the builder, Adrian Burroughs, whose communication has been exceptional. He and his team have been highly responsive, providing thorough answers to my questions, valuable feedback, and consistent follow-ups. Their professionalism and dedication to customer satisfaction have made this process seamless. I would highly recommend Stanley Martin to family and friends.

We have had a pleasant experience with Stanley Martin- especially it being our first home. Our home was completed on time and the construction team has been easy to work with. Any issues that arose, Adrian Burroughs was quickly able to fix them. We would recommend Stanley Martin to others.
