Totally agree with Andy here...........If you saw the new building that they are putting up in Edmonton as their office, I think you'd see that they are CLEARLY doing just fine.

As for the O/P........ I would NEVER build with Greenboro homes EVER again. The house was OK, but I had a bathtub leak on the second floor through the main floor ceiling, that took OVER 6 MONTHS to completely rectify........ HORRENDOUS customer service.

I'm really going to have to get up to edmonton sometime soon to see that building - know the site super who built it... Never known him to take that long on a project; must be a heck of a building.

I have some inside info on this, they are claiming bankruptcy. My friend said they are going about it in a round about way (so that they can keep the Jaymen name clean) but essentually they are in so much debt that the only way they can continue on was to file a claim.

Just moved into my place in April and we built with Beattie... this is kind of a toss up to go with them or not as they messed up quite abit as to what we wanted (upgraded) and what they actually installed. I was there every weekend during the build to make sure everything was done the way we wanted it and man o man did they screw up ALOT. Painting was sloppy, cabinets were the wrong color and things that we pointed out to be fixed took forever to be completed. We finally got everything fixed up a month ago.

They did upgrade our washer and dryer for free but I think thats the least they could have done. We are happy with our home now but was a nightmare during the build.
