I would give them ZERO stars if I could. Here's the list of just our FIRST 90 DAYS in the house. Mind you we had to hound them to get any of these issues addressed and many are not fixed and they are refusing to fix them. wood flooring was installed wron...

We bought a spec home from Byard, which used to be Petry, which is now Petry again:/? Worst experience ever. This company prioritizes taking your money, building as many homes as they can with no attention to detail, no pride in workmanship and most of a...
