Why Not To Buy A Greenpark House

Issue	Covered under warranty?
Complained of an apparent water leak coming in from the attic. Took them 10 days to respond.	They dismissed it without even going up for a look.
The grout in part of the floor in the master ensuite was not actually grout, but plaster. Any contact with water would cause it to dissolve.	They sent out two guys to fix it, but the new grout was not done right, and rubs off onto your hand if you touch it. As well, they put bright white grout down, while the grout on the rest of the floor is beige.
Excessive number of nail pops in the drywall. We probably have about 100. No exaggeration.	No
Defective thermostat causing the furnace and air conditioner to turn on and off rapidly.	No
Sagging bedroom ceiling.	Probably not
Towel rack fell off bathroom wall.	Fixed myself
In the garage, they installed the hose bib (valve) right where the car door swings, not on the back wall like a normal hose. I was unable to park my car in the garage.	Yes, but only after posting it on their Facebook wall. And they insisted that the house was designed that way, though the correct location was actually marked on the garage wall in blue spraypaint.
Hardwood floor is not tightly fit in many spots. You can see the unfinished side underneath.	Probably not
Every bead of caulk on the baseboards and counter tops has split.	Probably not
Many walls and ceilings do not meet at 90 degree angles. Very obvious in tiled areas, where it can be seen that the wall is not parallel to the grout lines on the floor.	Probably not
The corners of most of the window and door casings were not cut to make a perfect 90 degree angle, so there is a 1mm gap in most corners.	Probably not
Crack in laminate kitchen counter top.	Probably not
They installed a stove electrical outlet in the laundry room, so I could not hook up the dryer.	Replaced after a week
All rough-ins for phone and TV cable were just open holes in the walls, no blank plate covering.	Covered myself
Phone/TV rough-ins and electrical outlets that are mounted on the same stud have a 1.5" difference in height.	Probably not
Clumps in the paint.	Probably not
Terrible light fixtures. Overstock from the early 80's. The builder "Monarch" puts in nice fixtures.	No
About 10 kitchen cabinet doors have paint gaps along full length of the inner edges.	Probably not
"Freezer" outlet in basement was installed on a 20A breaker, though only using a 15A receptacle and 14AWG wiring, which is not to code.	Will resolve myself
Foundation had a leak that was repaired before we bought the place.	Yes, if it leaks again
All phone and cable TV wires were left with only a couple feet of slack in the basement, which is not enough to bring them to the electrical panel. This would require it to be spliced to another piece of cable to bring it to where the phone/cable company would enter the house. This can potentially cause quality issues, as well as the joins will be trapped in the ceiling when I finish the basement.	No
Furnace placed in the center of the basement, a few feet away from where it was shown on the floorplan. This will make the space awkward when I finish the basement.	No, because the plans are subject to change
Two cracked garage door panels from where a Greenpark employee clearly hit the door with their truck.	They replaced one and tried to get away with just plastering the crack on the other. They have since replaced it, but it has not been painted to match the door.
Lag screws in the garage doors were not tightened, to the point that the hinges started to come off.	Fixed myself
Did not leave any touchup paint. They left three buckets of used, dried up paint that were missing their lids.	A painter showed up and just dumped paint from his cans into some Mason jars we had. Monarch gave us full gallon cans, plus a gallon of floor varnish.
None of the bathroom tiles have any plastic edging. They simply painted the sharply cut edges.	No
