Bloomfield Homes Reviews

Despite purchasing / building our home during the COVID-19 pandemic, the process was smooth. Sam, the project manager was very courteous as well. The only drawback to the entire process, was the attention to detail in the finishing process. I felt that was lacking in more ways than one.

the only issue we had was that 4 houses were being built faster then ours after we signed before them. we brought it to their attention and brought in a second builder to put them back on track.

Robin was great, she responded to issues fairly quick. Only issue we really have is with the craftsmanship of somethings.

If your are putting in wood floors ensure there are no gaps and clean from scuffs during your walk through. Check all sheet rock work and caulking, we missed some need fixes upfront. You have a year for warranty work, you will probably miss things during your walk through due to the excitement of being in the community. However, it should be done right the first time.

They don’t build them like they used to. All to true at this point in history. As a watchmaker and jeweler I have a passion for craft. I think Bloomfield builds a pretty good product all things considered. My family and I are very happy with our new home and hope you will be too. The purchasing experience exceeded my expectations from the realtor to the title company and everyone in between. It was a pleasure partnering with all of you along the way!

Other than building the wrong master bathroom in our home, everything else was ok

This is the second house we have built with Bloomfield, our first one was a Hawthorn 1 that we outgrew. We went with Bloomfield again due to knowing what we were getting in terms of quality and such. We built a Primrose-FE-VI this time on a half acre lot so hopefully we won't be moving again, but if we did I would use Bloomfield again. One thing I would like to see Bloomfield incorporate would be more option lists like appliances choices and such. Instead of just having a std gas and std electric package, it would be nice to have a price list for each available appliance. I feel the appliance vender is over pricing upgrades because no one knows the valve of the included appliances so no credit get applied. The reason for my impression is it was cheaper for me to have the basic appliances installed and then buy the upgrade and "throw away" the other and still be half the price of the upgrade. Another thing would be for Bloomfield to offer generator ready options and turn key generators on their builds that have natural gas available. The installation of this during the build would be far cheaper than installed later. ... More

Robin and her support staff were fantastic. Held our hands throughout the buying process and navigated us around a few obstacles. The experience was stress free and I believe that’s because of the caring and professional approach of the Bloomfield Team.

We paid a good deal for our home and have had almost all of the trades back in, and some twice to fix shotty workmanship. I wish more care had been taken to build a better product.

Satisfactory, however when asked for help with a few items not heard a response yet

The houses are beautiful. The builders are marvelous. However, the loan officers, and the closing process was torturous. There were too many unnecessary huddles we had to jump over. It was very frustrating. Honestly, I won't recommend your mortgage lender to anybody.

Our biggest issues is getting things fixed in a timely manner. Seems like the building crews are just in a hurry to build these houses and do not take the time to do it right on certain things. From the first walk through to the last we kept pointing out stuff to be fixed and it never happened until we were just about fully moved in. Haven't heard back from the warranty company either on certain things. Our shower in the master bath has moved causing the shower door to not fully close. Mike the site manager did great and worked hard to get stuff fixed for us.

Pay more attention to the details of the package in question than to showy presentations.

Name: Sam The dishwasher is very basic. It do not even perform dry after washing. Atleast give better grade products for high priced house. Similarly many such products are basic.

I am overall happy with our experience with Bloomfield Homes. We decided to select them since were willing to make a few custom changes for us, but it was unfortunate those items had to be managed by myself! Our so called project manager dropped the ball so many times I had to ask Community Manager who is really managing this construction. We selected the Carolina IV floor plan, but here are our top 10 items for future buyers to consider (especially those in master bathroom): 1) The entry rotunda lacks a closet if that’s important feature. 2) The master bathroom lacks a linen closet and were surprised the master walk-in closet did not have shelves built for that purpose. 3) The master bathroom had just one small towel bar and really no other location to install a second one. 4) The master bathroom shower entrance: Really don’t like the step down possible trip hazard as stubbed toe a few times now. 5) The kitchen cabinet toe kick pocket is not tall enough for vacuum to fit as it appears the cabinet height wasn’t raised up to accommodate the ceramic tile thickness! 6) The 2nd and 3rd bathrooms cabinets lack an upper drawer. 7) We learned at closing that gutters (on a 580k house) were an opinion but no one mentioned that when we were specifying options and models showed them included. 8) The only possible storage room in this floor plan is unfinished and lacks insulation so our laundry room water lines routed through this area froze in cold weather. Also there was a lot of trash left in this room as well which I requested prior to closing. 9) The 3rd stall garage we added is not long enough to fit a full size truck as promised since the water heater platform was relocated from spot in main garage there without our approval. We had requested builder furnish a tank-less unit or moved to spot in laundry room but were assured there would still have adequate space. 10) Requested a wider backyard gate (8 foot) but actually got a useable 7.5 foot opening so thanks for not following through on that before closing. The last item item I’d like to mention were the numerous construction delays as we watched the spec homes get priority over contracted homes. We heard the same comments from several neighbors since we moved in December. A spec home like our floor plan still sits empty but has been move-in ready two months before our closing date. The builder claims it’s been sold so many times that I don’t believe it anymore. Hopefully someone within Bloomfield corporate will reach out to me for further details. ... More

Buyer pay close attention. When they tell you to point out any issues, DO IT. The builder is not checking any quality. They just let to contractors do as they please. I was surprised at what we had to point out to be fixed. I thought obvious issues would be dealt with but no. They use the cheapest constructed cabinets I’ve ever seen. Zero quality. Zero pride in workmanship. Instead of making cabinet seems fit they just stick trim over the seam. Cabinet guides were bent and not parallel. Obvious from the beginning. I kept being told everything would be taken care of. Now 1 month into occupancy and I have brand new cabinet drawer that bind up and jump the tracks. I expected better for a $500k plus home but was told by the supervisor these are production homes. That’s what you get. Overall a nice home but do not give a non refundable deposit. Bad decision on my part. ... More

The buying process was almost flawless. Unfortunately, two of the tubs placed in my home has stains in them as well as there are some areas that looks to be rushed jobs. There was something wasted on my carpet and a couple of panels/baseboards broken and installed.

It is a very tough buyers market. Finding a home was very difficult. Leslie and her team were able to make buying a home a reality. Thanks.

We are still waiting on the sliding glass door and screen door to be replaced / repaired. The sod has never been rolled and this was requested verbally.

We love how Bloomfield homes are unique in their designs and they work with you to find the best home for you and your family!

The workman ship of the house was not great and it has not been great trying to get them to come fix it.

You should Get better contractors.I feel the painters and flooring contractors were losey could have done a better job, , also issues with plumbing, had issues with cabinets uneven. The inspector should have picked up on alot of issues of peoples homes. Your style of homes are too nice not to be done properly.

We knew going into this homebuying process that we were in a pandemic. We asked from the very beginning about any foreseeable delays. I understand that the builder cannot control supplies and things like that but this process was very difficult on me and my husband. We knew we had to sell our current home before we close because we did not have a contingency sale. So that went without a hitch. We moved six times before we were able to finally move into our home. The home is beautiful we’ve had a lot of minor workmanship issues. Bloomfield staff has been very responsive and taking care of those small items. So I don’t want to be unfair to Bloomfield for our heartbreak in the home buying process. I think that the sales person in the office needs to be more personable and compassionate when difficult situations arise. Stating to people “ That’s construction” is insensitive and unprofessional. Overall, we are very pleased with our home and so far the neighborhood has been nice and quite. Chris was always responsive, helpful, and professional. He was the best part of the process. When it was time to close First American did a very good job in communicating and the closing. ... More

The biggest problem was that the supervisor was not here and that we had to point out problems that the working contractors were causing. We had a water leak after the stud walls were in place that never got address until we had to call it in to get fixed. We had 3 times they had to cut holes in the sheet rock to work on electric plugs that didn’t work. Each time fixing them and then having to go back and cut them out again. We still have a electric plug out side the back porch that doesn’t work. We had to have the framing contractor come back and place ceiling hangers where trusses were installed that were never put in place. I think a lot of these problems would not have occurred if there was a supervisor on hand to correct these mistakes. ... More

Although my home is beautiful I had several issues that I was concerned about that were incomplete several things had to be changed several things had to be corrected and there is still a lot of problems with the building of my home but I plan to file a request to have each and every item fixed and hopefully they will all be fixed thank you
