| Editorial Review | Fuqua Homes Missouri provides average modular homes and manufactured homes for the Midwest. These homes seem to target the entry level to mid range home buyer. They are limited with the customization but their standard building specification is acceptable for many home buyers. They claim to even build a three story homes in their modular home factory. Cost conscience modular home buyers should be happy with this modular provider. We think home buyers within 300 miles of their factory will also be happy. |

Personal Reviews of Fuqua Homes (MO)
 Dwayne Prins from Canon City, Colorado This company hires people to do their work and then does not pay them. They can not pay their own bills when this happens. Subcontractors be advised !!!!!!  Edward Barlund from United States The home we bought in 1993 inside is lasting very well. The outside siding started to fall a part after 4 years. It was painted 2 yrs. after we bought it. That fiber board or what it is is awful now our floor is splitting away from the outside walls. going to cast us a mint to fix. Watch out for wood siding.  Aaron Roebkes from Mound City Mo My wife and I Love our 2000 Fuqua Home, it is very energy efficiant and we could ask for anything better, we would also like to recommend Roger Kruger from Countryside Home Sales in Atchison Kansas, Roger took care of us from start to finish, he stand by you! Thanks Roger!!  barbara harden from la plata,mo I purchased a 1994 model Fuqua home in 2005. Recently as I was cleaning the gutters I noticed there was rotten wood under the shingles, I contacted a carpenter to repair the problem wood. He noticed the shingles were not attached properly. Someone at the factory had not put them on correctly. I called Fuqua and they advised me that it was not their problem since I was not the original owner. I guess they can just slap it together any old way and not have to be responsible. Sorry don't care for their customer service...  Kalvin & Lynda from St. Joseph MO All of the issues I have read in these complaints are not Fuqua related problems. Fuqua doesn't hire basement contractors. Fuqua builds the house in six to eight weeks, so if there is a delay it's almost always site related. There were a few problems with our site getting done on time, but it was winter and we were patient. Everything still took much less time than a site built home and since our construction loan was open much less time we saved $$ ! These problems are all related to the Sales Centers that you buy the home from, Fuqua doesn't sell retail, even the people you talk to at the factory are from a sales center. If you want to save yourself a lot of trouble and headaches talk to Kurt at Double D Homes, he is the most knowledgable and courteous sales person we ever dealt with, and we went to other places who handled Fuqua homes. He went out of the way to answer our questions, and if he didn't know the answer he found it out in a timely fashion. We love our home!  AL TOCCI from Inola Oklahoma we We bought our house last year,we used Home Mart in Tulsa,OK,they suck,they are clueless,they should stick to trailer houses.So we went to Fuqua direct in Boonville,MO.They were on time,bent over backwards to answer questions.If we called with a question,they answered it,or would call back that day.I even had a question late on a Firday,they called back on Saturday morning,to answer my question.After the house was done,I had a water leak,called Fuqua at 10am,that afternoon they had a service guy at my house to fix the problem.  Kay Crowder from Brumley, MO We have a Fuqua home purchased in the '70's that has held up very well and still has the original carpeting throughout...a product that has lasted !!!!  Mike Brown from Sagle ID I purchased 4 of their Canadian CSA built houses to sell on spec in British Columbia. Their cost was approximately $50,000 less per house than comparable homes sold in Canada and they were better built. The home buyers who purchased them were ecstatic. These homes have performed better than the new site built homes being sold in Canada. The few minor service issues were handled in a very efficient and professional manner. Build time to delivery was 3 weeks! These homes came from the Fuqua factory in Oregon state. I highly recommend their Canadian CSA products. It was a very enjoyable experience for everyone involved.  David Nelson from Aurora NE EVIL BEWARE !!! Their Representitive Kevin Lutz Prarrie Home Builders took $101,000 from my 87 year old Dad over 1 year ago, and he still does not have anything but the basement we installed at our additional costs BAD People REALLY BAD people ypu we are suing but my dad will probably never see the results BAD FUQUA BAD PRARRIE HOMES BAD !  alice from oklahoma this is a nice house/ it took longer to finish work than expected and had a horrible time communicating with seller i had to go through the state office that handles complaints regarding manufactured homes to finally get a response from them. we bought in 1999 last year we began to have problems with the roof leaking in spots, i called my ins adjustor and they stated they wont cover because when the house was assembled on our property they didnt install the rolled roofing fiber paper that is STANDARD for ALL roofs. i called fuqua and it took 3 weeks before they finally called back, and did inform me that they only cover over the 5 year warranty and sorry, they couldnt help me even though it was thier error that the roof was leaking because of lack of committment on the installer. yuk!  angie halsey from boonville liked everything about them  Jim Davis from Lake Ozark, MO GREAT HOME! My wife and I bought a new Fuqua Home in 1996. We have found our home to be well built and very energy efficient. We have only had a couple service issues and they were handled immediately by our sales center and Fuqua Homes. We looked at several other brands before purcasing our first home but didn't find a home as well built as the Fuqua for the money. Fuqua Homes provided us with a well built home that has saved us thousands in energy bills. We are totally electric and our utility bill is on average around $90 a month. I would recommend Fuqua Homes to anybody looking for a new home.  Tiffany Meyer from Faucett, MO BUYER BEWARE!! This Company prides itself in Poor Customer Service, or lack of it! Plan on a house from them taking MONTHS Longer than a custom built house, unlike what the info on their website says! We purchased a house in Oct of 2007, and as of now the middle of May 2008, it is still not finished, and may be another month(s) before it is ready! Plan on being given the run around, lied to, not called back, and generally talked down upon if you buy from this company. Our house is costing us over $200 thousand from them too, so its not that we bought a small cheap house from them to be treated like this, NO ONE DESERVES TO BE TREATED LIKE THIS! Do yourself a favor, just go have a stick house built, or if you must buy a modular or manufactured home, PLEASE DO NOT BUY FROM FUQUA! YOU WILL SAVE YOURSELF MANY HEADACHES AND TEARS!!  Angela White from Orient, IA We wished we hadn't gone through Fuqua. We have had a lot of problems with our home. When it was delivered, a tire blew on the trailer, causing floor/truss damage which makes the floor in the kitchen uneven and pops all the time. The contractor who done our basement, Fuqua hired, (per another contractor) said that our basement was not poured thick enough, and we have cracks in the floor and walls of our basement.
We've had plumbing issues with leaking pipes, bath fixtures breaking and we can't find replacement parts through other retailers (shower handle). There is uneven heating in the house which you get cold areas and smaller bedrooms which get too warm. When we ordered the home, we told them we wanted Tyvek paper, but we never got it.
I would not recommend this builder to anyone.  Roger Shaw from white oaks crossing please pull there license to build homes.I bought one 2005.I have nothing but problems I have had 8 service calls on furnace.less i yr.
