Daytona Homes Regina Office

Beware of this builder since there are many issues!First of all, I wanted to point out to all who consider buying their houses. They are having issues with the structural part and this part is the most important yet most likely to be ignored by buyers since they are not professionals. I as a journey man however have both the knowledge and experience about the framing of houses. below are just some issues I found and asked them to fix.1. Connector plate missing on one side of roof truss above bedroom shower. Note that the tooth holding value in lumber that has had a gusset plate removed is reduced by 50%. Thus, the replacement plate must be sized larger than the original to allow the plate to connect into good lumber. The new plate may not need to be 50% bigger, but the truss designer needs to recalculate the design to ensure the plate is adequate.2. Nails shall be spaces not more than 12”o.c. as per NBC 9.17.4.2 for Built-up columns. See pictures below, the nailing space are more than 30”for the built-up columns in garage supporting the multi-ply girder trusses.3. 2-ply header above garage door needs to be nailed together as per NBC Table 9.23.3.4 and they need to be at min. 12” spacing. See picture below, no nails found.4. 6” built-up post at this location needs to be nailed 12” o.c. as per NBC 9.17.4.2. See pictures below, the nails are spaced more than 30”.5. Top plates shall be reinforced from both sides when the damaged width less than 50mm as per NBC 9.23.5.4.6. 11-7/8” TJI Blocking at the cantilever portion is required based on Nu-Fab drawings. Not the kind blocking shown on pictures.7. FB5 rim board fully bearing on top plate below sheathing skirt as shown on Nu-Fa drawings. Note that exposing to outside is not permitted by the designer.Daytona told me that the build time would be 6 to 8 months but ended up one whole year (12 months), and they kept using Covid as the excuse even though the Covid has already happened when I signed the contract. When I called their manager asking for a solution, he told me there is nothing that he can do besides a $200 dollar gift card from Home Depot, but after I took possession, Daytona told me they fired the manager who promised me the gift card, so they are not going to even provide me the gift card the previous manager promised.Finally, they tricked me to take possession even if the house was not ready, so after 15 months from the date I signed the contract and after 2 months from the date I moved in, there are no grading around the house, and no driveway for the garage, every time I called and asked them about the driveway and grading, they would just using weather as excuses where those should've been done last summer as they said 6 to 8 months.Update for the manager's respond: I told your site manager to fix all the issues I found. They would not have been fixed if I didn't tell them. Should you pay me for that?All those framing defects were all covered when the inspectors came to inspect. It does not mean all the issues were fixed even though it's passed the inspection.Update for the 5-star reviews: It grosses me that Daytona hired click farm to increase their stars, look how fake those reviews are without pictures and even comments!!!

Really frustrated with this builder! Poor quality! Long time to build. No slope for the driveway and the run water back flows into my garage whenever there is a heavy rain. Flies will go inside the building thru the gaps on the window.Update for the 5-star reviews: It grosses me that Daytona hired click farm to increase their stars, look how fake those reviews are without pictures and even comments!!! Some comments say some guy from Daytona is funny! What a funny joke!5-star from Carri Douhaniuk and lol she works for Daytona!

Rebecca has been absolutely amazing to work with. We are building our forever home with Daytona, and she has made this the best experience. Great communication and information. We are so excited to continue working with her as we continue to watch our home be built.

If I ever move home to the Prairies I will be using Daytona Hones to build my dream home. Crystal brings such fun to their Instagram page! Keep up the excellent work!

Rebecca is very professional in every aspect of her role as a sales associate. She is knowledgeable about Daytona homes and the products that they use. She can answer every question throughout the process of the build and if she doesn't know the answer, she will find it in a timely matter. Rebecca is always available to answer questions and she can be counted on to get the job done! I would highly recommend building with Rebecca no matter where you are wanting to build your home in Regina!

We just purchased our second home with Daytona. They have absolutely great customer service and they go out of their way to help their clients, especially Rebecca, Mariah, and Andrew. Also, the great warranty team, Chris and Carri.

First of all, it took more than a year for them to build my house. And even after 6 months of the possession, the exterior stones still not installed. I was told a year ago to go to the supplier store which is the Timberstone Distribution to pick up the exterior stones for my house due to the shortage supply, so I went there and picked 3 options which were available at the time, then Daytona told me they placed the order, the stones would be installed summer time in 2022. They lied to me! In August Daytona called me again saying that my options were not available, if I wanted to keep my original options, I would have to wait for another year! That is absolutely unacceptable! Stay away from this builder, they just keep lying to you and keep using Covid as their excuse, or blaming their suppliers and will not admit it was them who messed up and kept delaying!Update for the 5-star reviews: It grosses me that Daytona hired click farm to increase their stars, look how fake those reviews are without pictures and even comments!!!

Having Daytona Homes Regina as one of my Builders is a delightful experience. The sales team is especially adapted to making every experience welcoming and understanding. At Daytona Homes they seem to go above and beyond to accommodate a client's needs and expectations. I had the privilege of dealing with Rebecca and she was able to to answer my questions as well as give helpful feedback on the market and the opportunities you can get with Daytona Homes.

My overall experience with Daytona homes was delightful. Every member of their staff was kind and helpful. I had spoke with Hannah on the phone and she pointed me in the right direction, she was very friendly and professional. I have confidence now in trusting them with my dream home.
