and what should I know about GREY pipes ??? ........
I really like living here, but sometimes  I feel like they saw me coming  |
I have been very happy with the quality of homes we have purchased in TV. After 4 years we have had two problems: Slight leak at kitchen faucet , and dishwasher malfunction. We just went thru settlement last week on the in-laws house and we were EXTREMELY impressed with the builder. We had snuck into the house and made a list of about 20 items that we had found for the walk thru. On closing day 18 of these had already been taken care of (all were cosmetic , paint and chalk ). The two that were not : the drywall cutout around the laundry sink was too large for the cover. The builder had a repair person out and had it fixed before the walk thru was over. The other was an issue with the color of a kitchen cabinet door. Builder also called his kitchen guy and has arranged for a swap out.
I dont believe that TECO trying to increase their bottom line by selling you a warranty on gas pipes, or Embarq trying to do the same by selling you a warranty on the inside phone lines has anything at all to do with the quality of construction here.
