TopNotch Homes builder in Mass/NH is the absolute epitome of incompetence. After moving in my new home I found water coming in the basement between the top of the foundation and the wall. After removing the siding and disassembling the deck I saw the Moisture wrap (aka Flash Wrap) was nailed to the wall and the adhesive backing was never removed! This would be like installing a new tire on a car and not filling it with air. That’s how ridiculous this was. TopNotch homes obviously uses people that DO NOT know what they doing.

As far as their vendors are concerned, well let me say this: most of them aren’t fit to be selling peanuts at Fenway park. Here’s why:

I couldn’t get American Irrigation, the company that installed the rain sensor for the sprinkler system to come out for warranty service if my life depended on it. They just kept on lying to me and never showed up. I gave up on getting service from these clowns and repaired the sensor myself.

TopNotch employees advertise how they do such a good job cleaning up once the construction is complete. To this day I’m still finding trash such as coffee cups, cigarettes, glass bottles, cans, discarded construction materials, wiring, sheet rock screws, etc.

My Advice and opinion is that if you really want to buy a TopNotch Home, buy one that has been lived in for a few years or be prepared to hire people to re-do what should have been built correctly the first time.
