Our Review

Editor's Rating
Editorial ReviewHeckaman Homes targets the mid range modular home buyer. They are average modular homes that will blend in with most neighborhoods. They have been around a long time so they must be doing something right. But our mystery shopper had several problems getting information from them. We don't understand why a company would make it so hard for a potential customer to deal with them.

Personal Reviews of Heckaman Homes

Mary Lin from Dowagiac, MI
Dave Zuel of Highlight Homes was my builder. I have nothing but great things to say about them. The home is lovely, semi-custom, and every detail was covered. The walls are straight, the finishes are acceptable and I have ONLY ONE ITEM that I was unhappy with and that was probably half my fault for not noticing it on the plans. My builder was always accessible and 4 years later, he still returns my calls whenever I have a question. I think the home quality is above average, but the builder was SUPERIOR!

Juan V. David, PhB, MUP from Palms, MI
From the Frame out we have issues with the manufacture of our home. Wood grade 3 quality was found throughout construction. There were gaps of close to an inch between wood seams in everything from rafters to basement beams. Walls were not straight and drywall was cracked and bulged and not finished appropriately. Charges for additional items were exorbitant and fees for items deleted were skimpy or not taken off. Cabinets were of the lowest quality and installed incorrectly. Repairs we very poorly done and the General Contractor would not accept responsibilty. We would never advise anyone to deal with this company.
