| Editorial Review | This Mid Atlantic division of Commodore Homes provides manufactured mobile homes and modular homes. The quality of work for both lines is good. They are a safe choice for most home buyers. They can't build a mansion but they do a good job providing homes for entry level and middle class home buyers. |

Personal Reviews of Commodore Homes of Virginia
 Albert S Bennett from Heathsville, VA Home is very shoddily constructed out of inferior materials.Cabinets in kitchen are coming apart. Floor in dining room cracks and squeaks.Serious mold problem about a year ago when it was discovered that a shower head fitting in master bathroom was leaking.Lazy Susan in kitchen is unusable since the lower shelf can only be used at ground level cannot be raised and held in place.Siding on exterior starting to come apart.Fireplace came equipped for gas not propane as we advised our buider.Window shades installed incorrectly right hand pull cords. Builder more or less told us we have to live with this. The whole experience has been nothing but disappointing.We took possession of this home in Dec 2008 in less than two years the appearance of the home has greatly deteriorated. I was never given a copy of the homeowners warranty by Ron Herring your contrator. He kept on making excuses like he left it in his car will make sure we get it but never did. The exterior faucets froze up in winter due to incorrect installation.They should have been installed slightly tilted to allow accumulated water to drain.Instead they were straight and froze in winter.It would have been pointless to contact our builder who cares no more about customer satisfaction than Commodore does.  Jeff from Columbus It is imperative that you go to the dealer that you bought your home from for service. They are the people that should mandate service for your home from the manufacturer. IF Commodore denies service, your dealer should perform it or you bought your home from the wrong dealer. I have had no problems whatsoever from Commodore. They were there with any issue I ever had, but I didnt have many at all. However, the dealer arranged my service.Yours shouldtoo. Don't let them tell you otherwise. If they do, they are lieing.  Charles P Andrews from Sedley,va Like, Connie from Virginia, we too have had our share of problems with Commodore Homes. Our house is not even 1 year old, and the floors squeak, the drywall is cracked in several rooms,and the roof has waves in it, by the way Commodore gives you only 21 days to report any problem, with your home, thta is what I was told by commodore. After that you are pretty much on your own. However, when family and friends stop by to visit,they see the cracks in the drywall and they hear the floor squeaking. I tell them that this is a Commodore Home from Danville, VA, not nanville like you state above, and I tell them they only care about the sale of their homes ,not about the service to the customers, their service department checked out a long time ago.We have not yet contacted a lawyer, to pursue this matter, it will only be a matter of time.  connie from virginia We have had nothing but trouble out of our home since we got it 2 years ago. The cabinet fronts are falling off, most of the slides on the drawers in the kitchen are broken, the stoppers on both tubs wont work. The fireplaces were never set up right, the heating and ac is not working right some rooms are hot where other rooms are freezing, door knobs are breaking, cracks all in the walls, We had the run around with the people who set the house up we had to see a lawyer just to get them to finish the house. The Floors make noise like they didnt nail them down right. We have had nothing but problems with every room in this house. We would not reccomend anyone get a commodore home.
