Highland Homes Reviews in Houston, TX

I was disappointed immediately after moving Into our home. Many electrical problems that required me to wait for the tech on multiple days. One day he didn’t even show up. We were told that all appliances were tested. Which would of been impossible because my dishwasher didn’t have power going to it. So a flat out lie. No one inspected the house, or they would have found multiple outlets with no power and the crossed wires in my garage. The home’s media box where the modem and router go are at the furthest point in the house. Sadly we have poor signal because of this. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER HOME FROM THEM. ... More

After 1 month closing. The grand new AC has issues. AC leaking water down to the ceiling and dripped to the floor. Highland Contractor just repaint the effected area. Big Tex still don’t know what happened to the AC. Same thing happened after 2 weeks. Called Big Tex Emergency many times nobody respond. Very disappointed.

Had the worst experience working with the sales people. Treated horribly by sales folks they did everything they could to try to get me to leave or cancel my contract because had a buyer that was willing to pay the full asking price.

The building process was a nightmare due to the construction managers that oversee your home build. They had zero concern over quality or workmanship by the contractors and nothing was made right by them. We have built before and never thought it would be this bad. I’m not kidding! By from a different builder!

We’ve bought several new homes in the past 20 years and I must say this is the worst by far in regards to quality, workmanship and service. We selected Highland in Wright’s Landing 50’s based on the advice of our broker and the fact that our last neighborhood in May Valley only had Highland and Village Builder homes - which were of superb quality. The appeal of selecting an employer owned company was also attractive because of the assumed personal attachment to the craftsmanship, quality and details of the finished product. The contractors used in the construction process simply either don’t care or are incompetent or both. Sadly, construction management does little to reinforce these issues. The experience was so disappointing, that the director of construction management for the greater Houston area changed project managers after we closed on the home because of his ineptitude. The second construction manager was much, much better but unfortunately it was too late to change our perception of Highland. It is hard to believe that painters would be sent out 5 times to retouch the same spot on a wall, which is still shoddy. Can you believe that we were told by their electricians that it is acceptable for our lights to dim and flicker when we vacuum or use a blender because this is a byproduct of the house’s energy efficient design? (We were literally told this by Highland electricians two weeks ago). Their main concern was to get us to sign the affidavit, which we begrudgingly did due to the exhaustion from this process. We are embarrassed to tell family and friends that our new home is a Highland product and to tell them the unfinished, sloppy concrete stories (which still exist) or the tacky cabinet and doors finishes issues (which I am looking at now). It’s interesting to note that the sales experience was amazing. This poor rating addresses the pre and post construction process and poor customer service related issues. At this time, we would not recommend Highland to anyone and would welcome a phone call or visit from one of their executives. ... More

Poor walls and supplies used. Paint rubs right off. More than 20 items needed to be fixed or repaired AFTER moving in. Been here for more than 3 months and still waiting for repairs and replacements.
