Some issues were resolved

Builders review in Richmond Hill

After bringing up my concerns to NorthStar, we spoke to a representative and some of the issues were resolved.

Our concerns included:
- Leaky taps
- Water leaking through garage ceiling
- Cold spots on upper floor
- Sound travels easily from basement to second floor
- Draft coming in through windows
- Incomplete work (caulking on tiles, faucets needed replacing)

We were told some of the issues in the house can happen in any house, depending on the location and direction that the house is facing and aesthetic issues, such as uneven doors and cracks, happen over time as the house settles. Not to mention, all the houses have been inspected and are up to code. I was assured all the materials used in the house are eco-friendly and far superior to the materials used way back in the day.

Approximate cost of services:
$1,200,000.00

DO NOT BUY

Builders review in Richmond Hill

At first, the house seemed great. Everything looked to be nice, shiny and new (which was true, it was!) but eventually we realized the quality is crap and the workmanship is horrible. The materials are so cheap- the entire house echoes and the walls are paper thin. You can hear everything from every corner of the house, no matter if you are in the basement and the other person is upstairs in a room, with the door closed.

If we wanted to upgrade with the builders, it would've cost us double but we had to let them build the house with their cheap material. Afterwards, we had to get our contractor to gut it and renovate- what a waste of time.

There are major cold spots in the house. There's a draft coming in from the windows.

I could go on but I won't waste anymore of your time. I'm just here to warn anyone who is interested in buying from these bogus builders. THE WORST.
