Reseñas de Shea Homes

We have been in the house for just over two months. It’s starting to become apparent that this house was built by either amateurs or people that don’t pay attention to details. The paint on the interior is already fading and will need to be redone within a year. I have had to adjust most all of the cabinets so the doors shut correctly. The microwave quit working and it was because it was wired poorly. And today I am dealing with no heat because the heat pump fuses keep blowing. Trying to get help from Shea homes yields no results, so I came home from work and made the calls myself. There are more things wrong, and I am contemplating just having it fixed on my own, so I know it will be done right. If I could I would sell the home and move, because this house is going to have more issues in the future. ... Más

Shea used to be a premier builder. Not so much anymore. Some finish work is done sloppily. Shower drain slope is not done properly and main electrical box inside cover has major gaps . Wiring is so packed the cover is bulging down at bottom.

The concrete sidewalk was asked to be fixed before we closed on our home. It was covered up and within a couple of weeks after closing you could see all the cracks. Now you say you don’t fix concrete. Our garage door opens neighbor door. And, we cannot close the garage door with remote. Light switch in kitchen cannot be hooked up with Alexa. The woodwork in the entire house has not been sanded down properly. Lots of Little things that are annoying!

Love the community. However, for the money spent the lack of quality in all finish work seemed cheap.

So, I wish my house was the exception, but unfortunately it is the rule. My whole block has poor quality finishes and missing items. For example, trade crew installed a tankless water system without a pump. Didn’t figure this out until we complained about not having hot water after the water was running for just under 5 minutes. We and others have extensive lists of things that need to be fixed. I understand that all new construction has some issues, but our lists seem to be much more extensive than is reasonable. Even a neighbor, who is a third time Shea customer, is equally disappointed in the quality of the finish work in the new homes that Shea is currently building. ... Más

Your customer service department leaves ALOT to be desired. Our $16,000 patio sliding door has marks all over the frame. The shower curtain rod was broken from the start, No vent hood shroud, hole in the patio roof. Electrical problems. Warped baseboards. Stains on carpet that were there before wr moved in and on and on (there's ALOT more and NOTHING has been addressed in over a month. We are no dealing with one of the CEO's at Shea, because your customer service department fixes NOTHING.

Buyer beware. These homes are being thrown up and the quality they advertise is not what you receive. A lot of promises no follow through. Very dissatisfied with the whole experience. It is however a beautiful area. We are not the only buyers with issues almost everyone we speak with has had issues.

Bad quality on cabinets, windows, tile finishing, because of rush to sign the contract.

ANYTHING to do with workmanship, or requiring individual competence in a trade was terrible. Entire electrical system had to be virtually re-done, inside and out. While being told during the process, everything was going great, I would come here and the home was a disaster, led to 4 -6 week delay. Many issues still not resolved. Our 30 day inspection fixes MIGHT be partially done by the 90 day point. Electriacl, tile/grout, paint are a constant source frustration/battle with Shea. Dishwasher didn't work for 60 days and Shea forced me to get our own repair person who threatened to walk out unless Shea agreed to pay on the spot because it was a Shea install problem. "Happens ALL the time" was the quote. Carpets dirty and stained on move in because NEVER had plastic down while work still being done AFTER carpet installed, while being told the whole time the carpet was protected. MANY issues still to be resolved. ... Más

We had never purchased new construction and wish we knew then what we know now. Be sure to ask very specific questions about all appliances and connections for all appliances.

many problems. we had 5 holes under kitchen counters took 3 mo to get it resolved we paid for shower and enclosur in guest bath put in twoo diff metals and couldnt open enclosure due to toilet put in 5 inches from wall. we paid to fix it all. we still have big rolls of cable 15 ft behind out propery told they. have been there for over a year and k fisher wont even make a csll to utility co to have them moved. many. many. problems. i would never buy another shea home

Norhtview at Stone Butte, quality is not provided! We did two walk throughs before closing and very little was fixed each time. We now have a fixer upper in our new home. I have drywall mud on many locations in my New Home? I will see how the work is done moving forward with the warranty department.

Electrical errors still not fixed. Poor quality of kitchen cabinets. Not telling me the requirements to obtaining permission to have fence and yard installed

We were huge fans of Shea Homes (repeat buyers), but the quality of workmanship in our new home is extremely disappointing. We were so excited to move into a new Shea home, but have been dealing with frustrating warranty issues since we moved in ten weeks ago (one representative says they will fix it, but the other says they won't), and still are dealing with obvious issues that we assumed would be covered such as dirty carpet from the subs, grout overspray on our brand new tile, an irrigation system which leaks, nicks on our brand new cabinet hardware, cabinet installation issues, shoddy paint quality, and the electric hook-up to the clothes dryer not functioning, resulting in us not having a clothes dryer since we moved in ten weeks ago. Regarding this issue with the dryer, we were informed by our warranty representative that it is not an "emergency" issue so we were put off several weeks. We question how much of an emergency this situation would be considered to be if it were a Shea employee experiencing no clothes dryer for more than two months. We actually purchased a new dryer (and washer) because we assumed our old dryer was the problem, but it turns out to be an electrical issue, so we likely didn't need to invest in new expensive appliances. We would be so pleased to refer Shea to our friends as a reputable builder who stands behind its product, but are frankly very disappointed with the outcome of the purchase of what we hoped would be our dream home. All of our new neighbors share the same frustrations, so please listen to these suggestions. Our advice to Shea is to scrutinize the talent and intent of the subs you hire, so as to ensure that they don't undo each other's work, and can effectively verbally communicate with the customer . You advertise a great product, and your floor plans and lot plans are excellent, but your finish and warranty work needs a lot more attention. Overall, we are disappointed with our dream home and struggle with referring our friends and family to Shea Homes. Please do something to change our minds. Thank you! ... Más

I fear that my home will not not age well and there will be multiple problems with exterior wood rot Because paint is already pealing! I understand that this is a construction sight but the between the mud and trucks Blocking roads it’s hard to like what I see! And I am Still concerned about the silt that is taking over the dry creek bed behind house!

Everything but Shea Mortgage was great! The loan officer was difficult with a super easy loan. I had to correct him on how he calculated my debt to income ratio. Unfortunately, I realized he made other mistakes after we purchased our home. This mistake resulted in a higher interest rate which is very upsetting. The loan officer made purchasing this home a bad experience. I do not recommend Shea Mortgage. Otherwise, Shea builds a high quality home and customer service from Shea as a builder is outstanding.

I was constantly getting requests for information, over and over. Should ask for it all at once. The design studio is totally inadequate. Much too small, and the person in charge of it needs to be more available. There are also way too many selections that should be standard, and items should not be grouped together.

Beware of what you're told is included in the Elite packages and what items are NOT included in them.

House was not delivered even close to on time. Workmanship was average. Lots of small details not dealt with.

Not the quality for the price. Not custom. Not clean. Layer of dust throughout, AC filters cakes with dust that unit was struggling to work, a professional was called and discovered every air filter was clogged with construction dust. Roofing was damaged and inconsistent to the point of risking leaks. Cabinets were not fully painted. Etc, etc, etc.

Sales process was great, design center process was a nightmare ! The design center messed up a lot which made the building process very stressful for me.

The buyer must ask questions. Example: Find out if interior paint can be upgraded. More orientation on light switches, waterless tank, and thermostat. Concrete and paint spills on entrance stoop and patio. I'm still waiting for a stovetop and additional water tank remote. This is beyond reps control. He is very responsive. I appreciate his efforts.

Worst experience we have ever had in buying anything. Constantly had to have things redone and waited for that to be done. Suppose to close December 28, 2021 and closed February 4, 2022. As of April 12, 2022 still scheduled repairs to be completed.

It was a mixed feeling experience. Sometimes the customer care was there sometimes it wasn't. We had an issue with closing and it felt like all transparency went out the window. Without that issue it would've been an amazing experience.

Major options in the model may not be available to you. Ask about every option prior to signing. Finish work is horrible but, they do try to make repairs if you point out the issues. Some repairs work, some, not so much. I personally believe in delivering an acceptable and finish product without the customer having to point out issues. Pricing on options. Any upgrades are priced without considering a credit for the included option. Ex. A change from the low grade carpet to a mid level carpet is as much as having the carpet torn out and replaced with high grade product after the purchase closes. In most cases it is cheaper to have something done after the fact. Remember that the design staff work on commission so there may be room to negotiate. I simply said to delete the upgrade, commission on a lesser amount is still better than on zero. ... Más
