Our Review

Editor's Rating
Editorial ReviewApex Homes is a producer of off-frame modular homes which can match traditional stick-built homes. Our mystery shopper received a very informative and thick package of information from Apex Homes one week after filling out their online form. Their website is good and includes actual floorplans for you to review as well as their specific building specifications. They are a good overall option for home buyers and have a long standing reputation.

Personal Reviews of Apex Homes, Inc.

john windsor from Morgantown
We are so pleased with our new Apex Customized Modular home. Everything has really been done to perfection. The maple kitchen with corian tops are breath taking.
It's overbuilt, at least that's what my father-in-law said. We wanted to design our new home and had that opportunity. Our builder was terrific.

John Eveler from Maryland
After 3 years of owning my Apex home, I decided to finish the attic off. Apex provided walk up stairs to the attic. when preparing to drywall, I find that there is only insulation in every other stud well behind the drywall they installed in the stair walls going up to the attic (these are basically outside walls). This inspored me to start checking the other walls in the house. Come to find out- some outside walls have absolutly NO insulation in them. Time to get a lawyer involved, as I am sure they will not respond to this complaint - just like they did not respond to other complaints. DO NOY BUY AN APEX HOME!!!

theo from new york
an awfull experience.leakage,mold and 2 years to complete.apex only supplied sheetrock but not labor to remove mold ,rip out sheetrock and replace. there contractor also went bankrupt with our down payment and more.they never assumed responsibility.second contractor they insisted we take just left after the leaks and collapes of ceilings due to leaks

Glenn McCormick from Franklinville N.J
I purchaced an Apex modular in 2004 I must say the home was fantastic and a great buy.However I wish I could say the same about the contractor. When I purchaced this home it was a real pleasure to deal with the professionals at Apex. Barry was one guy that really stood out everything the Contractor left out Barry was able to correct and with his help I would recommend an Apex home to anyone .

Jack Norris from RI
My front door was not installed properly by the factory. It leaked and ruined my wood floor.This is like three years later and why would it start leaking now?? My dealer United Modular Home from Niantic Ct. was a bad idea from the start. First Tony Delgrosso the owner told me they build and have built homes in Rhode Island. Then after working with him for quite some time I put my down payment on the house. Then every month he would say that the factory was behind schedule and they hadn't started my house yet. Around three months later I called the factory myself and they told me United Modular wasn't licensed nor Insured in RI therefore they wouldn't deliver the home. Another month goes by and Tony finally gets his License and insurance. This long time goes by and meanwhile I'm paying interest on my construction loan and down payment. Then United Modular Home hired some swamp yankees that claim they have "SET" homes before. The crew had no idea what they were doing. I was doing the electrical installation myself. I finish or I thought I finished the electrical wiring in the breaker panel but there were more breakers but no more wires in the basement. Come to find out the "set" crew didn't know they had to pass the wiring from the second story modular boxes down through the first story and into the basement. I had to tear apart part of the cieling and wall inside my dining room to get to this large coil of wires in order to get them to the basement. The Set crew said they never had to drop wires into the basement before????? I acted as the GC for this project, and the bank allowed me too. Tony told me the set crew takes care of the structure and all I have to do is finish some drywall, paint the interior and install the Vinyl and aluminum Trim that came with the house. WAS HE Mistaken....I go into the attic to troubleshoot some smoke detectors and there is a stack of 2x4's up there. What are those I ask myself. Well those were the collar ties (horizontal support for the peak of the roof)to reinforce the roof. Also in the basement I find boxes of threaded rods and hurricane straps for the attic. I install the threaded rods in the attic to tie the top boxes together and I install them in the basement to tie the bottom boxes together. I then have to install all those hurricane clips in the attic that the set crew was responsible for. It shows it in the packet of info from the factory what the set crew is responsible for. The only way the top boxes and the bottom boxes are connected together are the exterior metal hurricane straps and exterior plywood sheathing. Do I bother wasting my time calling Tony..Of course not. I'm the GC so I just deal with it myself..Now is this house structurally sound as far as bolted to the foundation and such. I have no idea.....There's lots of bolts and threaded rods left over still sitting in the basesment. The siding and sheathing was already istalled by the time I found these parts lying around. We'll see what happens with the first hurricane that hits this house. I know I wont wait out any storm here....Also my stairwell didn't align correctly. On one side the lower box wall is sticking out and I have to look at that everyday. The other 3 sides are square so therefore this was another screw-up by the factory not the set crew this time. Did my dealer ever check in with me for a follow up or anything??? Of course not they got there money and since I acted as the GC i just dealt with it. I'm not sure what's up with the front door, maybe there was a small leak to begin with and just kept warping more and more? I'm going to contact the factory and see if that is covered under their 10 year warranty???

Lee from Va
I believe the APEX product could be excellent however the contractors need to be just as concerned about the product as Apex is. I am sitting in my 3.5 yo Apex home listening to rain water drip into pots and pans inside my home once AGAIN. The builder *fixed* one leaky dormer within the first 2 years 4 times. When the other dormer started leaking a year and a half ago he suggested I call my insurance. 3 weeks later he called about sending someone by to look at the problem. By then I had already spent $1000 to have the dormer properly reflashed. Today the dormer the builder had *fixed* 4 times in the first 2 years start leaking again. I'm not even going to call the builder in fear they may *fix* it again. I'm calling a roofer to properly reflash this dormer too. I'm going to write a letter and send copies of the bills of these structural repairs to Apex home office and see if I get help......oh,yeah 80% of my floors squeak. They have from the get go. The builder stated it was part of settling. Since when does a 50lb dog walking across a floor make it squeak due to settling still after 3.5 years?

thomas haynes from yonkers, ny
I am an architect and a builder. I was disapointed to find out that I could not deal directly with the company to purchase a modular. It makes no sense for me to pay a builder to do my job.

Charles from New Orleans
Georgia plant took my deposit closed down and won't return the deposit, when I ask for deposit back they tell me they don't have it. They steal literally.

John from New Orleans
Bob Barton was kicked off our job after we grew tired of his delays. Further, since APEX in PA won't bail-out Apex in GA, the workers that Apex hired to do our siding and floors are suing us. We had two liens on us as a result. All we wanted was a place to live after Katrina destroyed our old home; what we got was a nightmare.

Lynn from Virginia
I have been watching my neighbor have his home built by Apex for the past 2 months...they work maybe 5 hours a day, 3 days a week. I will not be gettin MY modular from Apex!!1

connie from new orleans louisiana
Does not complete job, do not pay bills (Bob Barton) walked off job. In poccess of suing Mr. Barton and Apex homes,because we found out that we have three liens against our house. House needs work done that was not completed.

mary senec from cape may court house new jersey
we are very happy with our home it is soild lived in it for 10 months now great builder {bill brown}so far no promblems

Owen Strohmer from Maryland
We are very disatisfied with our home. Windows leak and do not funtion well, bumps in the floor where the boxes are suppose to meet, foundation problems and many othe problems. Also, s very poor GC named bill Schwartz with the Modular Building comapany in Annapolis

Matthew from Louisiana
Does not complete projects. Does not pay bills, Houses delivered had to many problems to list. Overall disaster. Builder not qualified (Bob Barton GCMH Inc)walked off jobs.

John Eveler from Maryland
Very poor support after the delivery for defective items and quality descrepencies. Very poor choice of builder to represent their product. Builder walked off or project, therefore they felt they had no repsonsibility to back up their product.
