The buying experience was good, but the items that need repair or were not done has been not prompt. There has been many issues like the main suite bathtub - it seems like the team has been trying to do workarounds. They dug a hole in the cabinet to fill the missing spray foam in the tub, but I was told prior that right way would be to remove tiles and then add spray foam. I'm worried about leakage issues in the main suite bathtub. We had not been able to use the tub so far. Some items told in the final inspection were not taken care of and had to do again - still many things not fixed. Example the air filters have been missing from the basement filter, the humidifier water outlet was off - and we didn't find out about it until only a few days ago. The washbasin on the lower/main floor washroom - whenever someone washes hand over there -it splashes water over to the wall - and there are already water stains on the wall. Very bad design/choices for wash basin tub and tap. The inspector had flagged various cold spots and I myself have measured temperature at certain places which is colder by 6-7 Celsius. List of other items that need attention that has been written down in the deficiencies. The doors were not painted/primed on the bottom and top parts, there are certain places which still need paint. Several outlets were not properly fixed, and there should have been timer for exhaust in the secondary as well - all major builders provide that. We had hoped for better quality and service with the Sterling homes. I hope I can update my review if the warranty team still takes care of certain things.
The Sterling Staff are very thorough and responsive, and go above and beyond to ensure this a great experience. Our home is perfect and any concerns were addressed immediately.
