Petrea's Custom Homes

We purchased one of Stacey Petrea ""custom"" home in 2006, it was eight years old (built in 1998). 2010: Two new AC Systems, added insulation to attic, installed radient barrier. 2012, New Roof (leaked) this was weather related.. 2012: Master bathroom re-modeled, no proper ventilation or proper type of sheetrock for moisture in the shower. Completely torn out and re-done. Much Mold. 2013: Hall bathroom being remodled, electrical code voilations, void in slab under bathtub never filled in with concrete (ants and dirt), cheap chaep chaep...no code enforcement by this builder at all. very cheap/poor quailty. Both in the construction and materials used. There is a huge difference from doing the bare minimum and excellence. This is a ""bare minimum"" build quality. The plumbing had code voilations, no cleanouts. Only one near the back of our home. I come from a place where when you build something and put your name on, you take pride in it to ensure it is done right. I guess Mr. Petrea just does not care about the finished product down the road, which leads me to believe he only cares about making money. Typical and everage are good enough. Very sad, but is what most get these days. Quality is optional? more

Stacey is definitely the guy to pick to build your home. he has been in the construction business for over 20 years. He isn't out to take your money, but is helpful when building your home. He uses top of the line specials, and cuts the buyers some good deals. He is honestly out to help his customers in any way possible.

I WOULD NEVER USE PETREA HOMES - STACY PETREA - AGAIN. We've had numerous foundation problems in the 12 years since he built our home - the first one being 4 years after it was built. We called and called when our house (foundation) fell 4 inches. He never would come out to look but sent his father to tell us it was our problem - that the foundation didn't have any warranty. We've spent thousands of our own money repairing a foundation that should never have fallen apart plus shold have been fixed by the builder. He used shotty building materials, poor insulation and we've already had to replace the so-called 20 year roof after less than 10 years. The ""siding"" and all other materials he used must be the cheapest on the market. The siding warped after 2 years and looks horrible. We thought we were getting the home of our dreams - not so - it's been a nightmare. And once he's built the house, you may as well forget about ever hearing from him again. They may look nice at first - but don't expect them to last long. If you're not a contractor yourself, don't expect any advice from him when you're trusting him to build your ""dream home"". All he cares about is getting his money. more
