Stonecliff Homes

When we decided to build a new home, we interviewed six custom home builders. After searching several areas where we could build, we settled on Evans Farm in Lewis Center. A short list of builders were approved to build in this community. I spoke to the developer and discussed some of the shortcomings I found among builders we’d met and asked for suggestions. Stonecliff Homes was one of the developer’s suggestions. I had not heard of this builder, but after learning that Stonecliff would be in the 2019 Parade of Homes, I felt it was worth a look. We had several meetings with Pat and looked at some of his work and his design build process. A year later, we are now living in a beautiful new Stonecliff home in Evans Farm. Throughout the process, Stonecliff displayed a great deal of flexibility, allowing us the opportunity to engage in much of the customization and to create some really special features at a very competitive cost. Through the process Pat remained personally available to u

I moved in to my amazing home in July of this year. We absolutely LOVE it. Everyone we dealt with was so amazing and professional. All the trades were punctual and whenever we had a question about what they were doing, answered it in a very knowledgeable way. We are so happy we chose Stonecliff homes to build our dream house!! Thank you Pat for everything you do!!

This company is the worst. Look at the reviews, look at google! Don’t trust pat and stonecliff homes. Currently dealing with the courts to fix our dream home! Buyer beware

I had met with several builders when we first decided to build our dream home. Each time I was promised so much and by the end I felt like I had to pull teeth to get them to build the house I wanted and not the one they wanted me to build. We were referred to Pat from some friends who lived in a Stonecliff Home (2nd owners). Honestly we had almost given up and put our lot on the market But as soon as we met Pat I knew it would be different. He listened to what we had to say. He didn't bring a portfolio of plans he wanted to build us - he looked at the plans we had, he gave some ideas on how we could better use the space. Immediately I knew we had found our builder. Lisa took our ideas and put them onto paper. Pat took that and put life into it. Now we have our dream home on our dream property. I can't thank the team at Stonecliff Homes enough for making our dreams a reality. And I will always be thankful to our friends for referring them to us. When you want someone to build YOUR dream home - call Pat and his team - you will forever be thankful!

I researched many Central Ohio Homebuilders to find just the right fit. I looked at both smaller custom builders and some of those major chain builders. I chose Stonecliff Homes for many reasons but the most important one was that Pat took time to focus on what our family needed and was able to present us with a truly custom plan that fit both our family and our budget. His standard features were so far ahead of every single other builder we looked at. I am so thankful that we took the time to do our research. Our house was more square footage with higher quality products for less money than any other builder we looked at. Take that and the personal attention given to us by Pat and there is no other choice. I would highly recommend Stonecliff Homes!!

Recently purchased my first home in February, had Stonecliff remodel using a 203k loan. Work included kitchen, bathroom remodel and exterior roof. Price was extremely fair compared to other quotes and work was completed in a timely manner

Note: We did a 203k rehab loan on our home because it was in really poor condition and needed a lot of work. Mr. Schultz/Stonecliff homes was recommended to us by our initial mortgage company to be the general contractor, so that is why we initially hired him. My wife and I had a very difficult and very strenuous experience in working with Pat Schultz/Stonecliff homes. He worked for us for about four months, and after that time, we had to finally fire him and hire a new general contractor. The first major incident occurred when Mr. Schultz had to replace a piece of rotted sub-floor in the kitchen with a new piece. I went over to the home to check on the work and noticed when I stepped on the new piece, it was very weak. Upon further observation, I noticed the new piece was not proper sub-floor. He used a piece of T1-11 plywood siding panel. In addition to it not being the right piece of wood, it was cut very poorly with large gaps around it when installed (pic attached). So, I contacted Mr. Schultz about the issue. Several days went by and I never heard back from him. Finally, when I did hear back from him, he said he would take care of the issue. So, I went back to the home about two weeks later, and the issue was still not corrected. I then contacted our HUD consultant about the issue and he contacted Mr. Schultz. After our HUD consultant contacted him, the correct piece of wood was installed. Due to the sub-floor issue, my wife and I contacted Mr. Schultz and expressed our concerns over his lack of communication, lack of work supervision, and lack of progress updates. He replied back taking partial blame but also stated he did not fix the sub-floor issue just because our HUD consultant contacted him. He said he was getting to it and would have done it regardless. So, we believed him and decided to give him another chance. However, his behavior of not communicating, not supervising work, and not giving progress updates continued. The next major incident occurred when the new kitchen and bathroom cabinets were installed. Instead of properly measuring and cutting the holes in the backing of the cabinets for the pipes to go through for the sinks, they were ripped and torn (pics attached). And things just continued to get worse. They installed a faulty toilet in the 1st floor bathroom that leaked on the new floor and damaged it. So, during the removal of the toilet to replace the damaged floor, they scuffed up and dirtied the brand new base trim that was installed (pic attached) and never cleaned or replaced it or communicated at all about what was going to be done to fix it. The final incident that made us decide to fire Mr. Schultz/Stonecliff homes was when we found uncapped electrical wires in the master bathroom that were live and no one was there working. We immediately contacted Mr. Schultz about the issue and told him it was a severe fire hazard-something a professional GC should know- and we told him to please ensure it did not happen again. He told us OK. But when we went to the home the very next day, we found more live uncapped electrical wires. So, we immediately fired Mr. Schultz. After we notified our HUD consultant that we had fired Mr. Schultz, he had to come out to do an inspection to assess what had been done properly. During the inspection, my wife and I found out there were several other things done wrong. The HUD consultant said that Mr. Schultz should have gotten a smaller dumpster for the demolition phase of the work because instead, he got a large one that did not fit in the driveway, so he set it partially in our front lawn which caused heavy damage to the lawn (pic attached) and now that needs to be fixed. Also, the pipes connected to the sump pump were broken during the demolition of the back deck (pic attached) and that was never communicated to us either. Also, the 2nd floor guest bathroom had trim that was cut very poorly and installed very poorly/improperly (pic attached). One of the new kitchen cabinets was assembled improperly and the base of it was loose and the backing of it was torn (pics attached). Also, one of the new windows was installed improperly and does not close completely. In the end, some good work was done by sub-contractors such as the install of new windows and a new roof. However, overall, we had a very awful experience in working with Mr. Schultz/Stonecliff homes and the majority of the work was done poorly and improperly. Mr. Schultz acted very unprofessionally about the reasonable requests that we made to get the home fixed up properly. He did not care about the quality of work being done nor about us as the customers trying to properly fix up their first home and make it a quality place to live.
