  What started as a good experience building our forever home, has turned into anything but good experience. From a project manager who hates when you question him or his work, and won't respond to messages if you want him to do his job. To POORLY kept work sites & our community looks like a dump with trash always blowing around & dumpsters overflowing. To a non-responsive warranty company, who makes you jump through hoops, then refuses to fix their mistakes or issues. Currently our biggest issue is DRB not wanting to fulfill their warranty work, because we currently have a lawn full of dead sod, and what isn't dead is onion grass weeds. After weeks & weeks of trying to get a response, we are told sod is only warranted for 30 days after close, we closed end of December when the sod is dormant. So how are we supposed to know it didn't root properly in the middle of winter??? Plus it takes upwards of 60 days for it to root properly, so we are screwed. DRB wants water bills, pictures, and for us to jump through hoops to even consider replacing & will only do so if we can prove it was an issue on their end. On top of that we have several neighbors we leaking roofs, defective roof shingles, sewer lines that were leaking due to drywall screws going into them, our yards are ALL POORLY graded causing divets, uneven areas, water to pool and DRB REFUSES to fix the issues. My suggestion, stay farrrrrr away if you want a builder who stands behind their work.

  Closed on our new built home June 2024, build by Dan Ryan Builders. LVP began chipping and peeling where the plank connects within 13 months of living in the home. Riterug only offers 1 year warranty and has denied repairs or replacing due to a long list of things to not do. My home is well maintenance, groomed, and never live with any pets. I have live in apartments, rental homes, and also have bought a couple of homes myself and NEVER HAD AN ISSUE with any of the flooring. All throughout the home the LVP is bouncy and lifting. Considering taking out a 30 year mortgage on a new built home and face to rip all the LVP flooring up due to poor installation. No way this is the same or better material that they are placing in apartments or new homes. Had a company to consult the flooring and to my luck the owner was a ex employee of Riterug and did not suggest going back with any flooring from Riterug and to consider Lowe’s or Home Depot for better quality flooring. As a wife and mother living in our family home I’m noticeably irritated, very disappointed, unsatisfied, and angry home buyer. Having to replace flooring in a new built that's less than 2 years old is unacceptable! I’m a dental clinical professional and hate to say but pulling teeth is easier than the contractor or Dan Ryan Builders taking accountability for what’s happening in our BRAND NEW HOME! Add

  If you are looking to buy a home your search needs to start with the letters D-R- and B! This builder has made our home-buying experience beyond what we had ever imagined it to be. From the moment we entered the Main Office, we were greeted by Kat M. She was friendly, knowledgeable, accommodating and listened to our every request. She showed us our home, the one to which we compared all others to along our home search. When we decided to enter into the process we were recommended a finance team and a law firm that also far exceeded our expectations. Everyone at DRB kept in constant contact throughout each step, to ensure we were receiving the care and attention we needed. Shane M. was in charge of the construction technicalities of our home building and he should be receiving 5 stars five times over if we were able to do so! I look forward to the interactions we have with Shane and his team because I know that his work ethic upholds the values of the company he is representing. DRB strives for excellence in everything they put their name on. THIS is the company you want to make their homes YOUR home! Thank you to everyone at DRB Homes..I can not speak highly enough about what you do to bring the dream of home buying to every client's life you touch.

  I have a home under construction with DRHomes I have had fights with sales and design center but mostly rude folks in regional office when they decided to communicate with me i was given ultimatum. The sales agent has done all that she can to assist me. As a builder They are quick to say no changes but do not want to own up to the mistakes they made during construction. They change floor plan designs to equate for their mistakes. Your home will never be exactly like the model you fell in love with. I Am concerned about the quality, the energy efficiency and of course they are months behind schedule. They are Not forth coming and lean toward untruthfulness. So You have to stay on them throughout the build process so that they make the corrections as they build. Buyers beware that this is a production builder and they aren't flexible on changes and don't have the best selections or a many options too choose from like other tract builders. Note: The only 5 star comments came from DRHome Employees Funny
