| Editorial Review | Carolina Building Solutions is an above average modular home provider. Their designs are varied and attractive. These homes will work well for any new middle class home buyer. Their homes are not best for upscale clients although they do have several floorplans for homes with 2900 square feet which is the largest size they build. Their website displays pictures and floorplans so you can review them and make your own decision. They also have a good slideshow presentation that fully explains from start to move in day of the modular home process. Their customer service is very poor according to our mystery shopper who had several information requests ignored. |

Personal Reviews of Carolina Building Solutions
 Al Gurner from Salisbury, NC Carolina Building Solutions is a systems built manufacturer that sells soley to builders and developers. The Builders and Developers utilize CBS as a subcontracter to deliver modular systems in combination with individual builder turnkey services to the retail customer. The builder is responsible for a myriad of finish services "after" the modules are delivered to the building site. It is extremely difficult for CBS to handle phone calls and questions from retail customers, other than to refer them to the closest builder of CBS products. It is unfortunate that CBS only manufactures and delivers into a six state region surrounding the Carolinas. Inquiries from Nevada or any other state CBS does not conduct business in, can only be referred to a "sister" company when possible. CBS is very customer focused....striving to provide the most innovative housing products and services available in todays marketplace.  Dan Guthrie from Las Vegas, NV They do not wish to tell you much of anything and the women who answer the phone KNOWS NOTHING was putting me on hold and asking some one and then would talk to you. I think it is best to talk to one of the people who sell the home and not call them on the phone,as they know noting about nothing. BE fair the women who answer is only answer the phone and is no help. I may have not asked the right Q. Capt. Dan Guthrie  John Greene from Mountains I priced a Woodland 1 Chalet at a local dealer. Dry in, 30 miles away is over $120/sq. ft. Can this be correct? The unit is nice but a competitor offers another style and much larger for less than $50/sq. ft. I can afford that.
