Fairmont Homes

We are currently building our second Fairmont home. The first was a 27x40 that we used as a summer cottage. After 3 years we decided to retire in Northern Michigan and needed a larger home. Naturally, Fairmont was the choice. While neither home is the "up-scale" luxury home we are leaving in Louisiana, the cottage was a solid, energy efficient home that never seemed cold, even in the dead of winter. We have great expectations from our new home and so far, the quality, the economy and the setup have been as expected. Will report after completion about "service after the sale" but with the first home, 3 years into it, the dealer is still a friend and we bought the second home from Bob's Modern Homes knowing our treatment will be the same friendly, reliable service we've had all along. Thanks Fairmont for making retirement a bit easier :)

In 1988 bought a new 14x70 3 bedroom fairmont, had a problem with screen falling out of front door. Other wise this has been my good solid home for over twenty years and I thank God for it. Only cost 14,900, and is still in excellent shape because it has been taken care of and is a very good home.

My late husband and I purchased a 1992 fairmont 14x70 and had many problems with the workmanship from the beginning. If I had it to do over I would not purchase a Fairmont mobile home of any kind.

Stay away from Fairmont Homes - We purchased a 30 by 80 home from them for our retirement home three years ago. Nothing but trouble and no concern from the manufacturer or the sales location in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Just spent almost $10,000.00 repairing and replacing cracked drywall, cracked ceiling, bad woodwork, creaking floors, and on and on the list goes. As I said, no concern from the manufacturer or the sales people. Lots of promises up front which were broken immediately after we took possession of the house. Only a one year warranty which the location in Eau Claire was very difficult to deal with to get repairs. Once the one year is over forget it. Bad - bad - bad..........

Would say -5 stars if it was available. Was to be moved in by Nov. Still not moved in due to factory building a damaged home. Bent steel on Framework, bulges, siding falling off, shingles flying off, cracks, and 6 pages of typed out problems that need fixed. It's now April.

I bought the best, at the time, 24x64 30 years ago. Lack of insulation in the attic has caused roof dams and ceiling leaks since new, fittings not tight sprayed water on the floors from under the house! Bathtub has dropped 6 inches! Floors all patched, etc. If the health dept came out they would condemn the place, I'm retired and can't afford to move! Just simply poor construction, Alumimum wire, 2x4 roof beams etc. Big mistake when I purchased it!
