Centex Homes Reviews in San Antonio, TX

We love our new home.

Poor attic insulation ,the floor needs adjustment, the walls begin to show nails. the plaster of the foundation is falling, never received parts of the kitchen cabinets, the main room is very hot with respect to the rest of the house, never received the paintings that were used in the house

I would've given the Summit by pulte/centex 4 stars for value for price paid, BUT for one HUGE reason - their TWO-CAR garage doesn't fit ONE regular sized short-bed crewcab truck! One of the MAIN reasons I purchased a home was so I could safely park my truck when I went on long out of town journeys (which I do for at least 6 months in a year), so I was quite shocked to find out that my truck didn't fit (another 1 1/2 feet of depth of garage would've helped) inside the garage. When I reported it to the Pulte folks, they didn't bother to respond for several days and even when they did, they just told me "get a smaller vehicle"! You'd think that a single family home with a decent lot size IN TEXAS would fit a regular sized short bed pickup truck! I'll never ever buy a Pulte/centex home nor would I recommend it to any friends or family either. ... More

poor workmanship poor materials

The buying experience was fantastic, the sales person(s) were fantastic, the original construction supervisors were great, and the construction seemed to be going well, as time to close on the sale was nearing the wheels fell off the building machine. It seemed everything that could go wrong went wrong, many items lacked in workmanship, many things didn't work, then it was a rush to the finish.

Be prepared for issues to arise between your final walk through and closing. The field manager claimed that Centex would provide a "paint touch up kit", it never happened and I have several areas in my home that the builder failed to paint. I can't even get a response from the company just for the name of the paint color. I've been trying to get a response for several weeks. There was dirt rubbed into my carpet from electricians that were in my home doing work while I was closing. I came home immediately after closing and electricians were in my home, without anyone telling me they would be there. I am continuing to find caulk and paint on my carpets. My master bathtub was covered in sheetrock mud and other substances that took me hours to get out. Also, there is water-logged crown moulding that was left in my garage. The field manager said they would send someone to remove them...that was the first week of March and it still hasn't happened. Several doors didn't close properly within 2 weeks. They sent someone to fix them but my door trim was damaged during the process and they didn't repair it. All and all, there is a poor attention to detail, in my opinion. We are moderately happy with the home but expected more attention to detail for the money. ... More

Happy with my new home. Everyone did a great job!

Very responsive on make-ready items.

As a new home owner understandably we anticipated maybe a minor issue here or there that would need to be addressed. Luckily the few things that needed to be touched up or addressed were usually handled within 24 hours of me putting in my request even after moving in.

Needs to focus more in final details
