[quote=AN]Flu, for some reason, I thought you’re talking about something else, like beams and studs or something. With regards to doors and cabinets, I totally agree. After completely remodel my house, I start to notice these cheap materials as well. But I’m not sure if its just pardee or are all builders are doing this.
The cabinets are no longer real wood and the sorrento heights cabinets are a combo of metal and partical boards. Feel really cheap. I wish I did all solid core doors for my house too. It doesn’t cost that much more either. Would be nice if builders give you a base price without flooring, doors, and cabinets.[/quote]
Here is a true story you might find entertaining. I had a colleague that told me about this story when they bought their home in one Pardee community (I won’t tell you which one, but it was in CV Saratoga/DH/Carriage Run/Bridle Ridge suspect). They were visiting the jobsite as the house was being built… And what they described was kinda funny. It was like “building by numbers”. One guy went through and drew boxes where windows/doors/opening was suppose to be cut/made, and the other guy goes through cuts them, and the other guy starts doing the dryway/etc/etc. What happened was apparently the guy that draws the boxes skipped his home (or missed a few boxes). He shows up and was wondering why not so many windows on his home… Lol….
