Winston Home Builders - Double Springs, Alabama

Martha Sue Bedwell

I’m sorry for those that bought a Winston home. I bought it from Regional Homes in Laurel & that was a disaster in itself. From the pictures I have seen I have the same issues as y’all—mine is a Sipsey. I trusted the Construction Co that came to repair but they did Soddy work as well. I have been thinking about going to their office. They had a Bible on top of my paperwork. As a Christian I thought that meant I could trust them. I was sadly disappointed.

They say on their website, that they build with pride and the customer in mind. My first step into my home was a horrible experience. I called to invite the owner to come for a visit and do a walk through, have not yet had an answer. Someone from Winston called asked for pictures and said they would send someone out within 3 weeks. Still got a week or 2 before that happens. I paid 79,900 for a home that I'm determined was a practice run for some new people. See photos below. Not very happy with this company, even asked for a refund and then come get this one. There is over 60 photos with issues. Want share them all.

Update! Their 2 weeks are up and still no repair. The last I heard the contractor had the work order and supplies to repair, and is supposed to call us with a date and time. That's been a week ago, still no phone call.
A lot of money spent on something to not be satisfied with.

Don’t waste your time on a Winston Mobile Home. Literally had no answers from factory after 6 months of last visit from them witch was horrible finally comming Monday. We are almost a year here . $560 later from their electrical mess (when they did come last year)up out of my pocket lights still flicker And Will Need to be tended too
. This is Crazy !
I am done with this .
My house is nice but not worth what was paid. You get half the satisfaction out of the disappointments.
-Cracks everywheres not fixed on walls
-Paint different colors everywheres
- trim not caulked nor painted
- wood beams have paint all over them that can’t be removed
- shoe molding still not completely attached
- two totally different textures on walls esp hallways
- did I say the marriage live is completely crooked ! Like bad ! Literally turn my food to the side and that’s how it looks
- lights flickering and or surging
$What they caused last visit to FIX everything
In witch they didn’t !!!
- paint on window shams from last people who come
- paint on floors from them also
- No molding done
-bedrooms and areas painted were painted with Exterior Paint! Yes Exterior and a totally different color. Way Darker !
-all the kids were sick had to go to dr and leave the house due to the paint … nope still didn’t realize it was from the Outdoor paint they used.
- white patches left not painted
- oh did I say Paint on my Ceilings? Like strings all over ? They were by far painters that come out. -
I had paint on a child car seat paint on my kitchen chair curtains both sets, my Tv did they compensate ? Nope just expressed to me how to remove their mess up
- Paint on my white unpainted molding also

I could keep going…… Literally Over This ! Not bashing who I bought it from but this Winston Company is just ridiculous!
Went and bought some paint and will be painting myself with the correct paint ? very soon . Unless they are bringing a pro painting crew I don’t want them in my house .
They endangered my family’s health. Caused a huge mess, and fixed Nothing! One Mad Buyer

Called three times in the last 24 hours all I get is a voicemail with no message. Called got a hold of payables and receivables. The only one that answers the phone after hitting all the extensions. She cut me off when I was trying to ask questions and said all she could do is transfer me and that was it That prompted me to go read the reviews and then that made me go back to Palm Harbor. Glad I read this before pursuing it disappointed. Ravenwood looked beautiful.

It has been months now that Winston has been made aware of the workmanship defects in the home I purchased. I would attached pictures of the defects but this reciew will not let me. Good luck getting any issues resolved from the company you purchased the home from or the manufacturer that built the home.

Thank you so much for blessing Patience Wolf and her family. Watching the progress of their home being built from from Granitefalls North Carolina.

WARNING !!!! WE WILL NEVER EVER RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY NOR WILL OR FAMILY OR FRIENDS !!!! I would not give a STAR but I had to in order to post this. The day Our home was delivered the door and door frame was busted. It had to be propped up in order for us to have some kind of locked door. I had to go buy a Brinks security bar, !! Wrong kitchen island counter top, 4 rooms with the wrong paint, cabinet HAD 22 DRILLED HOLES in it going no where, cabinets cut, gashed , crooked and scratched up, walls gashed, wood cut, gashed, exposed beams scrathed , cut, vents messed up and broke, 3 inch screw plus rocks under flooring-which we are still finding more rocks, ordered two shower fixtures-only put in one, we ordered a larger shower so they took and redesigned our whole bath closet area without telling us , we never approved what they did, even though we asked several times for the layout which they did not have but then called and said "oh its ready!" Our closet was cut in half etc. NOW I still cant get hot water for my bathtub! Handle to the shower is on the outside of the wall-you have to turn hot water up and run back and forth to check it !! Wrong carpet plus now walking on the carpet in the livingroom we have found a large bolts , screws sticking out , then what feels like a hole in the floor, (not the first hole we found) they forgot to hook up my microwave so had to cut a large hole in my wall to fix it, two differentof colors in flooring in my entry to kitchen-their excuse-oh they didnt wax that area!! There was a gash the size of a softball or bigger on our ceiling above the island that they just painted over , they kinda fixed it but so much more is wrong with the ceiling that the guy said they will have to send someone else out to fix it Havent seen them yet !!! Grout is cracking and washing away in our showers, mantle over stove had a huge gash in it.. oh it was replaced but only with one that was cut /gash on the other corner !! They cut a hole in my island to put an electrical plug but realized they cut the wrong side and just left the hole which sits under my garbage can for food to fall in it- was half way corrected, a HUGE GASH WAS CUT IN THE COUNTERTOP ON BOTH SIDES OF OUR SINK AND ONE BY OUR STOVE-YOU KNOW WHERE WATER AND STEAM GOES ! THEY WANTED TO JUST PUTTY IT UP !! PLUS EVEN AFTER WE REFUSED THEY STILL TRIED AND DENTED THE SCRATCHED UP SINK UP !! WE HAD TO FIGHT TO GET NEW COUNTER TOPS BUT ONLY TO HEAR HOW THEY WERE ONLY GOING TO REPLACE IT ONE TIME !! Sink scratched so bad- SO MUCH MORE !!! Their inspector (a joke) came out told one of the managers "She is Legit". The person over our home could care less!! After the inspector , his report , phone call, photos, my photos and my report, the manager never reponded or cared to call us! We had to contact him ! He was more interested in building a show home instead of fixing our home ! I guess since We Paid Cash for our home they had our money so could care less!! Our home should have never left the lot ! It seems that at least one of the head managers after all this trouble would have cared to come see our home but...NOPE ! So much more I could say !! My husband was so mad about this home that he would not take a key to the house and just did not even want to deal with the inside of the home until we finally moved in. He was just disgusted with it and even more disquested with dealing with the company. Look on their Facebook, they pride themselves in giving Bibles. I think the guys name is Boo Haughton. Tried to contact him..no response. They can have mine back- My Bible teaches Christians to treat people better than this. We are constantly cleaning paint off floors, exposed beams, paint drips, patching gashes in walls, fixing 100's of nail holes they refused to fix . WINSTON !!!!! WHO IS GOING TO PAY US FOR FIXING OUR BRAND NEW HOME THIS IS SO NOT THE HOME WE ORDERED !!!! Posting a just few photos !

Please DO NOT buy a Winston home. They do NOT care about quality. They throw it together and send it on its way. Our home has been at our land for 7 months and no one has come to fix anything. Our barn doors have not been hung, cracks in walls, ceilings have not been fixed and the worst yet is the water leaks!! I am still waking up to clean water out of floors and dealing with water damaged walls and baseboards. If you want a nice home Winston is NOT the one to buy from. This place should be shut down. I know several people that purchased a Winston home and have the same issues plus some. Also we don't have lights in THREE of the four bedrooms because the switches went out. The fans work but not the light. Another thing, we ordered the natural LIVE OAK shelving. They slapped some stain on a 2x and hung them on the wall. They do not care about their craftsmanship as they advertise. Lies!!
