Being a former owner of a Minto Condo at Artesia we were very satisfied with their quality and worksmanship. Our condo was very high end and every detail was looked after. After living in a condo for 3 years we decided to upgrade to a townhome and Minto Artesia had just what we were looking for, so we thought. Our home was delivered a month late. The home was delivered while other homes where being built behind us, so we had dust and mud for a while. Then while finishing their other homes some contractor cut our cable and phone lines. Our back yeard had to be dug up and the landscape was destroyed. They fixed it but you can imagine the mess. The worst part of the deal was the house itself. This is not MINTO quality. The drywall work is horrible, you can tell where they joined drywall. The details were lacking. Overspray paint in many places, caulking all over the tile flooring. The kitchen hardware is subpar to what it was before. The caulking is craking everywhere already (it will be 2 months on the 22 of this month of August 2011). This is not what we expected when purchasing a Minto home and we are very disappointed with the quality, fit and finish.
- Approximate cost of services:
- $325,000.00
- What could this company do to improve their services?
- They need to stop cutting corners and get back to basics.
- Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
- At this point I would not recomment to any friends or family to purchase a Minto Home. Their quality fell off the map.
