Dukes' Homes Inc

Signed our contract March 2018. July 2018, ready for construction. Were told it takes 6 to 10 months to build - 14 months later we moved furniture in September 1, 2019 (the house still unfinished). Due to Duke Homes' tardiness we were forced to overpay storage fees. Biggest problems were 1) the lack of communication from the owner Hayne. John from office complicit in ignoring our calls. 2) Duke expected us to contact his subs when problems arose. Red mud stains on exterior light beige brick. Painter left careless permanent stains all over tile floors. At a tiny scratch, paint peeled leaving white on walls. Richard (Granite guy) left granite uncaulked. His countertop has oddly different lengths on either side of our stove. As to concrete job - severe cracks on garage floor appeared before we even moved in. Brad the trimmer quit without notice. We had to deal with multiple different lousy paint crews for paint - 5 months of no progress in between. WATCH OUT for Brian the cabinetmaker: very sloppy, didn't finish the job, totally denied our requests. Only framers and bricklayers were decent. This 14 months has been a nightmare. Do not pay the final draw while the house is incomplete! Run far far away from Duke Homes!
