Bought a home with a front porch. Porch was supposed to come with a sealant underneath the deck boards to go over a basement. Yea it wasn't sealed properly and they have done nothing about this issue, my porch still sits on a basement with light shining through. Would advise to use someone else

I have had my home for three years. I paid extra for a walk-in tiled shower. These are the pictures of the floor under it. It has been leaking since day one but it was under the base so you couldn't tell. I called heckaman and they said it's out of warranty not their problem. I understand things happen but stand behind your work. Instead I have to pay $5k to get it fixed. Dennis Osworth

Lots of complaints in this area! Don't deal with ANY contractor without a detailed written contract, especially in states like Illinois where contractors have stacked the deck against consumers. Many of the problems were in the modules themselves. No caulking around plumbing, MANY unfilled nail holes, a lot of cracking before and after installation, walls that aren't square, poor materials used, especially for flooring and cabinetry, poor plumbing especially toilets and bath units. Materials around the bath stain very easily.

Low grade fiberboard used for flooring. No trim around stairs. Undersized breaker box. Noisy cheap vinyl siding. The home was "finished" many months after the promised date. Others in my area also had very bad experiences. Kitchen cabinetry needed repairs shortly after installed. I didn't save time or money by going with a Heckaman module!

Heckaman Homes authorized dealer Cornerstone Homes is also at fault. Home arrived covered in road grime. Refrigerator door won't fully open, jog in walls of living room, hallway and front office. Staggered kitchen cabinets were requested. Shingles were not nailed at location called for on specs.

I have no complaints with the home itself but I do have a laundry list of complaints with the general contractor, which is a form of representation of Heckaman since they don't choose just anyone to work with. I won't go into the issues with the general but what I will say is we have reached out to Heckaman multiple times over the course of more than a year TRYING to make complaints about the general contractor and the issues we were having. Levi was the Heckaman rep in charge of our home.

It was impossible to catch him when he wasn't busy. He never returned our calls. They said they don't deal with home owners directly and rerouted us back to the general contractor that was the problem every time. I get the idea of not working with the customer directly but when that customer reaches out time and time again with issues and you still choose to ignore it, you have become a part of the problem. The home itself is nice but the total experience was a nightmare. It's our first home we had built and I don't think I would do it again.

My husband and I started the building process with Heckaman Homes at the end of May and by the end of June our house was set. Honestly, the manufacturing and setting of our house was the fastest and smoothest part of the home buying/building process. Heckaman Homes had a variety of floorplan options, but we fell in love with two different homes so they worked with us to combine them into one. Our spacious kitchen is our favorite part of the house (pictured below), and the process to pick out our counters, cabinets, sinks, lights, flooring, and everything else was simple yet we had lots of different options. The day they set the house and finished the roof (literally all in one day) was one we will remember forever. Our great contractor was also really important to this process.

If you're looking for your dream home, then I highly recommend to go with Heckaman Homes! When my husband and I decided we wanted to build a new home, we were nervous about the process of doing so; but Heckaman Homes took all of our worries away! They worked with us through the whole process, and they made sure we got exactly what we needed. The employees were always available and eager to help when we had any questions or changes to add.

We are now living in our beautiful home, and it is beyond perfect! This company crafted our home to fit all of our wants and needs, and I couldn't be more grateful! I loved the process of building a home with Heckaman Homes, and I would do it again in a heartbeat!
