Centex Homes Reviews in Fort Worth, TX

Builder follow through left a lot to be desired.

There are open areas in my roof line as I can see light from my attic asking my whole front entry walkway, when it is on. Very poor caulking job outside and especially above my tub. Along the floor as well they are not all clean lines and trim work has flaws. Very messy and ugly. Paint specs all over on my floor. Lumps under my carpeting, my garage door does not close all the way to the cement and the ground is not level with the garage door. Shotty concrete work under the brick by my garage. Random concrete in bricks that was slapped in after the fact and is a different color cement. Clumps of concrete on my sidewalk. Everything was rushed at the end to close before year end and that can be reflected in sub part quality. ... More

Poor quality of material, i finded many unprofessional mistakes, not really satisfied,let see about the 10 years warranty!

I have the biggest case of buyers remorse. Plastic faucets on a 245k house? Lawn is full of weeds. Builder does not respond in a timely manner. Cheap fixtures make me so sad. I had a history maker home that was much better quality and the builder was top notch. I am beyond sad about my home but feel stuck with it.

Moved in my home for a month now. Have had electrical issues, plumbing problems, and hvac issues. To this day still waiting for the electrical issues to be resolved. Imagine buying a $400,000 and not having electricity for multiple days in master bathroom and bath. Being told it will be a few days before someone comes out. Even though you see the electrical company working down the street a few houses down on homes that aren’t complete. Imagine them finally coming and not fixing the issue, then having to reschedule again. 2 weeks of getting dressed in the dark. But no one has an answer. We closed and y’all got your money so our issues aren’t a concern. -Local Realtor ... More

I have a lot to appreciate this company like the neighborhood and the house manager(Mark) are two of the main things I would like to appreciate Mark has really great responsive tendencies he is always there to help with issues and even if he can’t he always tries his best to satisfy customer and for that I would like to thank him. Something that left me with a sour taste in my mouth is the fact that after 30 of you moving in they are supposed to come to do a walk though in your house and that is a part of the contract but they never showed up. we I did I told them that when I moved in my grass in the back yard was not leveled and looked horrible but when I told them about it they kept telling me somebody will come to fix it and I would wait but no one would show it took me having to keep to call them every single day then when they did send someone the said that they didn’t have enough material to fix it and he never came back and now I’m stuck with this big backyard that is not leveled and honestly looks horrible. ...

I expected better quality in materials, we recently had a water leak outside in the sprinkler system and they took over two weeks to fix it.

If I had to do it all again I wouldn’t purchase a home under the centex brand name. The homes are cheap and a lot of corners were cut wen building this home. I am just glad we have the warranty to fix the issues

The night we closed, about 20 minutes after we walked into the house for the first time, I found a leak in the wall. Supposedly there was an issue with a piece of the back siding, so the hose bib needed to be removed in order to complete repairs. After the hose bib was replaced, it wasn’t screwed back on tight enough so water was leaking in the wall for an unknown amount of time. Drywall was damaged, insulation was soaked, and a considerable amount of water was seeping up from under the floor which was how the leak was discovered. Subsequently, the floor in the entire house needed to be replaced. It took exactly 1 month for all necessary repairs to be made which was an unacceptable amount of time. Granted, everything got finished, but the lack of urgency displayed to us when it came to getting our issues taken care of was very disappointing. ... More

Overall experience was not the best… communication was not great. I had a few issues come up and lack of communication. I was told if we have questions, someone would be an assistance. Had some landscaping issues, work order was placed and they showed up after 5 pm. Someone was suppose to be there to assist and communicate back with me because I was not home at the time of the appointment and no one was there to communicate to even let me know the work was done.

The home buying experience for Pulte/Centex was not a pleasurable one that’s for sure. The entire financing process was a joke. People not responding, not reading through documents submitted, delayed reviews of time critical pieces of information, more than I care to write in this review. This was a fumbled, mismanaged and unprofessional way to handle people’s financing and overall one of the worst interactions I’ve had as a consumer. It didn’t stop there, on the building side of things, during our final walk through we noticed a worker decided to urinate in the master bedroom closet. The construction manager apologized and cleaned but hopefully replaced the carpet and the padding underneath. We found some things after we did our own inspection that needed to be fixed. For the most part those items were fixed. The swells on the side of the home are flat and pool water up. That has been the concern from day 1. Instead of fixing the issue Pulte warranty decided to send landscapers out to see the area.. Well it’s been about 3 weeks now and the problem persist, and the grass hasn’t grown. We had some minor electrical issues and drywall issues with the home after move in. The contractors came out and fixed them. Other than that it’s been me making trips to home depot to fix things as they’re discovered. Dealing with Pulte Warrenty has done nothing but waste my time / money waiting around for people to show up that don’t show up on time or don’t even show up at all. Overall I wouldn’t recommend buying a Pulte / Centex home. Sure this could be a bad experience from one person but when a company drops the ball in just about every phase of the home buying experience, it shows how unprofessional the company is and should caution potential buyers. It’s more than likely this review will not be seen but for those who do see it I encourage you to get financing elsewhere, hire an independent inspector and take what this builder says with a grain of salt and do your own research. ...

I feel like I was pushed into thinking all the issues at each walk through would be completed and any issues would be fixed asap. The only person who has been great so far and actually communicates is Doug my service manager. My electrician no showed for a outlet that is missing which is a code violation. Made me miss a work day using PTO even after confirming that morning! My upstairs tub leaks but thankfully Doug is working on that finally after Dallas just ignored the issue since one week after moving in the home. The pain comes off with one wipe on every wall. The exterior doors have to be slightly cracked in order to actually lock them. Doug is also working on that but I have to wait and see if he comes through unlike the incident with the electrician "who was coming". Steer clear because the whole neighborhood group on social media is talking and nothing but complaints with the new homes that should not be an issue for a new home. Also, Taylor isn't any better when my realtor reached out to him/her they said someone would come look at the issue and well lets just say, that NEVER HAPPENED. I regret buying this home now dealing with all the frustrations. ... More

These houses have major electrical issues. They're not wired correctly. There's massive drains issues. I was told I would have a warranty walkthrough at 30 days and still nothing. I had to replace 2 appliances in the first week because of the wiring. Breakers flip constantly. The response and the HOA are also extremely disappointing. If I had to do it over again I certainly wouldn't purchase here.

Appliances not working sprinklers wrong equipment electrical plugs uneven will do an inspection before the year it’s over disappointing

Pulte Did not follow through on agreement for 30 day follow up Inspection. 4 months after my home closing I am still left with broken door that would not open Even if a fire broke out and windows that I can not see out of.
