Awful experience living next to their work sites. From garbage in my yard to workers blocking my driveway it's been an experience to say the least

I have been a Waterford homeowner for 7 years now and couldn't be happier with the home they built. Just like any new home there are always issues, but they worked to resolve them as quickly as possible and have always been available even after the warranty for any questions that I may have. I would not hesitate to purchase another Waterford home in the future if the opportunity presents itself.

I've had the pleasure of working with Waterford homes for over 5 years. We have referred our personal friends who have built with Waterford. They are a family run business that is willing to go the extra mile for their customers. Specifically, their attention to detail on the budget is impressive and willingness to do customizations allowing the client to make their own stamp on their new home. I highly recommend them !

We had a great experience buying our home from Waterford. They were transparent about the process and able to make changes when needed. Even now, 3 years later, we have had very little issues in terms of quality. Would highly recommend!
