Veridian Homes

Well, it's now been proven. Veridian Homes does not stand behind their work. They will kiss your ass when you want to buy a home, but ignore you after the purchase when your house that they wont stand behind starts falling apart.

What do I do....well, I'm now mailing parts of my driveway to Veridian, which I will continue to do every week until they fix it. Unreal, what happened to the days when companies stood behind their work....well Veridian Homes is not one of them.

Veridian Homes is still screwing me. Yeah, dont blame them, they are in bad financial need.

Being ignored by Veridian Homes

After discussing the problems I am having with my home, Veridian Homes has now decided to ignore me. They are unwilling to fix, or help out with my driveway, which is falling apart. My veridian home also is starting to mold in my master bathroom, due to poor installation. Beware, Veridian Homes will be more than happy to sell you a new home, but they are not willing to fix any problems. They push it off onto you, the homeowner, saying I am responsible for my driveway falling apart....Maybe I should not drive on it, but park in the street. Oh wait, driveway, not way..... Veridian Homes, Shame on you.

A response fromVeridian Homes

Hello,
I have received the second inquiry on the concrete driveway and I have reviewed your “blog”
1. For your moisture levels- the builder (Veridian Homes) is not responsible for making sure that homeowners maintain a recommended humidity level in their homes. Bathrooms and kitchens are common high moisture areas. We recommend running your bath fans often to take the moisture out. But again, this is not something that Veridian Homes is able to monitor with homeowners. Homeowners are responsible for maintaining the home.

2. For the concrete, I would recommend sealing your concrete. This winter a lot of salt is used on the roads, and the salts are brought in on your vehicles. The flaking will continue to worsen if the concrete is not maintained. I also recommend in the winter time, to clean off or squeegee the concrete once and awhile to remove the salts. The exterior concrete is something that needs to be maintained.


Thanks,

First off, for a living we advise people how to waterproof their showers...see http://www.tileprotection.com/ so I know it's not some humidity problem.

As for the driveway...it's been sealed....and the explanation does not explain the wear on my front step....I do not drive my car on the front step.

My Veridian Home has a Moisture Problem








This one is even funnier. I got mold growing on the upper wall of my master bathroom. Okay, so there must be a moisture problem...someone did not do their job right when they were building my bathroom, this is obvious. So, Veridian sends someone out to my house to inspect it. The gentleman that came out was very nice...he climbed around in my attic, inspected what he needed to and then looked at me and said...."There must be a moisture probelm in your shower area"...., well no kidding, ya' think....and that was that. So since someone did not do their job right the first time, Im stuck now having to redo my bath area, because the Mold problem, keeps getting worse. So thanks Veridian for wasting my time and sending someone out here to tell me something I did not know.... :) No, Veridian Homes did not offer to resolve the problem.

My Veridian Home Driveway is falling apart

Now below you will see my driveway, which was done by a contractor for Veridian Homes. I have been complaining about this for several years now. Funny, Ive only been in my home for several years!
Last year Veridian sent someone out to my home to look at my driveway...that gentleman said "this is normal". So take a look at the pictures below, and you decide if this is normal. By the way, I DO NOT SALT MY DRIVEWAY, or FRONT STEP.

I'm pretty sure when I purchased my home a concrete driveway was included, I dont remember anything about asking for a gravel driveway, beacuase that is about what I got.
These pictures are of my driveway, and front step, which is located in the Willowbrook Neighborhood.
