Although we can probably do a lot of things we have found over the years. We figured that we can achieve a higher level of customer satisfaction when we stick to our core values and provide the service that we are best at. That is a Five Star Bathroom Solution Project. We love to stay in our own lane.
"All I wanted was a jetted tub (the same size or larger than what I had) and shower doors, That’s it! Regrettably, I went with Five Star Bath solutions of South Atlanta with Lavezza Zanders as my consultant and manager Monty Johnson. What I received was no shower doors at all, and an oval shaped tub that is narrower than the previous tub, this is obvious with even the naked eye. I did not request a particular shape, and I certainly did not request a smaller size. Who the heck would? There is no documentation that I agreed to the tub that was installed specifically, and the contract only states size to be determined at measure. Again, during consultation the same size tub or larger was agreed to. The company responded by telling me that this tub is actually larger than what I had before and to get the proper sized tub, I would have to pay an additional $3000 over the $7000 I had already agreed to pay, and that I had to sign a new contract. They also ordered the wrong size shower doors, so for that I have nothing but holes in my shower. Ultimately, I did not want to sign another contract; I should have been given the proper sizes to begin with. I was given a tub that is 39 inches at its widest point, but my space is over 48 inches. There was plenty of space to put a wider tub without major construction (walls did not need to be knocked down for a better width), this is obvious from the photos. My emphasis on this fell on deaf ears; Monty and Lavezza kept telling me to spend this additional $3000 to get the tub size that fills the width of my space. I then elicited the help of a friend who also has lifelong contracting experience. My concerns were not being addressed and unfortunately, I felt that having a man speak on my behalf would help. On 3 way was Monty, the contractor, and me. The truth came out at this point. First Monty admitted the obvious, the tub is more narrow and only deeper than the previous tub, not LARGER nor the same size! Monty also admitted with the contractor on the phone, that the size, model, and cost difference to get one tub vs another was never presented to me; I was just arbitrarily given a smaller tub! When I asked that they take the tub back and return my $2000 deposit, initially Monty agreed then he reneged. At the end of the conversation, Monty was on the phone cursing at me and the contractor. No one was cursing at him. I attempted to reach The Five Star Bath Remodel Cooperate offices multiple times and got no callbacks at all. For $2000 I got no shower doors and an uncomfortable creaking tub that I didn’t ask for. I want a full refund."

The standard construction timeline for a villa ranges from eight to 18 months, depending on its complexity and size. Factors affecting this schedule include architectural intricacy, permitting processes, seasonal construction limitations, and material availability. Custom luxury villas with specialized features require additional time for proper execution. Planning and design phases preceding actual construction can add several months to the overall project timeline.
Many villa projects encounter issues from inadequate budgeting that fails to account for contingencies and upgrades. Poor contractor selection based primarily on low bids often leads to quality issues and timeline delays. Insufficient attention to foundation and site preparation can lead to structural problems throughout the building's lifespan. Frequent design modifications during construction significantly increase costs and extend timelines, while overlooking energy efficiency considerations impacts long-term operating expenses.
Villas incorporate more sophisticated architectural elements, requiring specialized construction techniques. Their emphasis on indoor-outdoor living spaces demands thoughtful integration of structural and aesthetic considerations. Many villa designs incorporate luxury amenities that require specialized installation expertise. Local building codes may impose additional requirements for villas in certain communities, particularly those with architectural review boards or historical preservation guidelines.
This decision depends on current real estate market conditions, available inventory, and your specific preferences. Existing villas offer immediate occupancy and established landscaping but may require renovations to meet current tastes. New construction provides complete customization and modern systems, but it involves longer timelines and potential construction challenges. The premium for new construction varies significantly by location, with some markets offering minimal price differences while others show substantial gaps.
Villa maintenance requirements depend largely on size, materials, and included amenities. Exterior elements, such as gardens, pools, and architectural details, require regular upkeep. Major systems, including HVAC, roofing, and plumbing, benefit from preventative maintenance programs. Establishing relationships with reliable service providers helps manage these ongoing requirements efficiently and economically.
