I have gone through the home building experience with Drees Custom homes and it couldn't be any better. I was operating remote most of the time and project manager kept me updated. Sales and closing processes were also very smooth and professional. Post closing warranty of 90 days is also very helpful to iron out any pending items ..

Our experience with Drees homes was pretty good with a few challenges. The sales process was smooth but we were not 100% happy with the design center part and felt a bit rushed making some decisions. We also felt issues when adding windows in the kitchen. We were told about problem with our kitchen window positioning and cabinet needing to be redesigned after the windows were cut out. This should have been discussed sooner when we asked about adding the windows that was not in the design. Other than that the overall experience has been good. Preston is very responsive with every request. ...

  • Justin, TX

There really isn't much to say besides the times that we were building our house through. Production delays, weather delays, "you name it" delays. I believe there were some delays that could have been avoided, as well as some production items such as having to re-pick items because of said delays. Outside of that, we felt the builder and salesperson were both attentive and helpful.

Some of the tradesmen take no pride in their work and it shows. Brickwork is average at best. Not rodded properly and a lot of excess mortar. Driveway has patches along edges that are very obvious. Framing is not plumb or square in several locations. Waiting on response to our 90 day walkthru.

Drees provides a lot of different floor plans and flexibility in customizing each particular model.

  • Hoang D.

  • Conroe, TX

Offers excellent sales experience as we bought a home 100% virtual. We wish Drees has some kind of software that allows us to visualize the different options and how it looks (something to improve on). The workmanship quality is generally good, but it's a hit-or-miss. The builder is responsive and followed through with our concerns after closing.

They have a good product, but maybe it's because of COVID. This is my 3rd new build and I have been disappointed with workmanship of the house and the response from the builder to fix it in timely manner.

Had a great experience working with the sales team & the design center. Builder was very proactive in providing weekly updates on progress throughout the build phase. However, have been disappointed with the workmanship even though the materials used are good quality generally. Had multiple electrical issues, wiring not done right, wiring not done at all etc. Floor tiling is warped in a couple of rooms and needs to be done again. Flooring & Skirting is not done right and had to be done again in couple of rooms. Couple of walls were not straight that had to be fixed. However, the builder & the ...

Matt, the superintendent has gone above and beyond. He is sure to give daily updates on post move in issues and is in the know about everything. Matt is awesome and a pleasure to work with. Floors Inc has been awful. Between their rudness, lack of care, excuses and Will Sumers; my view on Drees has dropped.

While Matt has been a great resource for you, we apologize for the frustration you have felt in regard to the flooring company.

This is actually our 2nd Drees Home build (30 years after the 1st one !), and they did not disappoint. Guided by their enduring corporate values focused on clients, they continue to be one of the most high quality, dependable, and trustworthy custom home builders. Building through a Pandemic with supply chain disruptions is challenging, but Matt and Eric were fabulous to work with and very responsive to our concerns. We are 2 months post closing, but they remain in touch to ensure things are working and patch up paint and other things to our liking. Trustworthy, high quality, and dependable ...

Everything has been great experience with Drees team from sale manager, Steven to designer center, construction manager. They have been responsive to all my questions/concern. The only thing I'm not satisfied with workmanship & materials. They are not good like before, it could be better than other custom builder. But I expect more from custom builder like Drees, still upset how cheap quality and appearance of kitchen cabinet are. Hope they change that.

We were fortunate to work with a great Drees team that included a market manager, builder and design consultant. Delivery wasn’t as timely as we would’ve liked but it was understandable due to Covid and supply chain issues beyond the builder’s control.

Hard close soft landing

  • Arlington, TX

Purchased my home in Oct22, closed Jul23. During Oct - June it was the normal weekly updates with very few delays due to circumstances outside builder control. However, my close was a nightmare as a result of the builder's affiliate lender forgetting the original closing date, showing it as a week later than originally scheduled. Because of this I was unable to close on my original close date and incurred thousands of dollars in additional moving expenses just by them having the wrong closing date. Since the close most of the issues I've had with my home within the first couple months ...
