Shea Homes-Trilogy Reviews

My wife and I found that our customer representative did not provide information to us unless we asked a specific question. Even then, there were many questions she simply relied with "I don't know". She did not offer to find the answer most of the time. Once we took possession of our home, we were very pleased with the workmanship and quality. We have had some minor repairs that needed to be addressed and the builder/vendors seem to be ready and willing to make us happy. While the purchase experience was not a pleasant as we expected, the end result is more than expected.

After looking to downsize in several locations, we found way more house for the money at Trilogy at Tehaleh. Mount Rainier shines over this community that has fantastic amenities—a pool, an excellent restaurant, and a large network of well-maintained walking trails. Shea continues to works hard to seek our input on how things are going and if we have any issues. We also chose to work with Shea Mortgage which made the buying process seamless. This is a very friendly neighborhood. For us, it is a perfect fit.

Overall a great experience, great quality and great service.

This Shea process is very well orchestrated but a few years behind in human needs and construction techniques and interior design and lighting opportunities. Most mechanical aspects are good but instant hot water is too far away from the delivery points and runs wasted water. Water lines in attic causing hot water rather than cold in hot weather. In interior design very little flexibility in choices and options along with vendors and time with designer. No options for lighting and wall plug locations. Landscape palette is not appropriate in many areas of varieties not regionally real in the setting. Sales not clear on interior color options and fron/side street frontage and rear yard setbacks for pools and equipment and landscape. Policy on two trees per rear yard is not enforced. Astroturfing or other fake grass should be outlawed as to heat gain and burning feet. Trash enclosure should be mandatory and areas between homes have tree requirements assisting in reflecting heat and producing shade and oxygen. Policy on maintenance of property line block walls and steel picket fencing need to be maintained by the Association. ... More

Love the Shea home product. Would recommend the area and Shea Homes to others.

If possible, ask for Joy as your supervisor. She was very good. She listened and made things happen on a timely basis.

Only in the property 2 months and we have no complaints. All stated schedules were met and the staff is excellent.

Shea has great floor plans and they try hard to do a good job. Realize absolute perfection is hard in this industry. Be realistic but allow time to look over your new home carefully before move-in as having work corrected after move in is not desirable. Enjoy!

Professional, Courteous and Friendly .

Shea runs a well oiled process.

All those that I have dealt with are swift in response, caring, professional and courteous. Special shout out to Owen Crannell. He often went over and above the call of duty.

Sonja in Sales and Karina in field operations were fabulous every step of the way. Landscaping company was non-responsive throughout the process and product quality was lacking. Quantum for the high voltage and audio visual was very good from a sales perspective. The operations side is lacking. I’ve been here two months and still not completely operational.

The fallow up after move in with Annie our customer field rep was excellent on issues that needed to be corrected. The one thing that wasn't a good experience was with TLB landscaping not doing what they said they would do, and getting them to agree they were wrong and coming back to correct was like pulling teeth, and we are still waiting on a correction 3 months later. If I was to do over again I would use a different landscaping co TLB was tied in with Shea homes, we were unable to use anyone else if we wanted to put into the mortgage. They also are over priced and poor customer service.

ALL GOOD SO FAR, Love my new home

Overall we were very satisfied, the experience was better than expected.

They care about the build and entire process

We are pleased with our home and we feel that Shea deserves the good reputation that it has. We had a couple of issues when we first moved but they have been resolved. The customer relations people have been excellent. We were a little disappointed with the slow response of the HOA on some issues but that is improving. (We are very supportive of a strong HOA by the way but they should answer phone calls and e-mails promptly.)

The homes are built with a group of helpful people.

Design home is well planned and very tastefully done.

Good quality and good responsiveness

Reasonable value in a friendly and highly amenitized community. Service was good both before AND after the sale.

My sales girl was my saving grace. She helped me with the many questions I had. Moving from another state, being homeless for nine months while my home was being built and traveling with three cats and a dog, across the USA, to stay with friends and relatives, during Covid wasn't easy. D. C. was so wonderful to answer all my questions often, and always within 24 hours.

This is the second Shea home we’ve built. We’ve always been pleased with the quality of the finished product, as well as Shea’s service both before and after the sale.

We can’t say enough about Karina and how much she helped us. That being said, I wish we had any time with the landscape folks. We didn’t. Sure, at the beginning they were there but it would have been nice to have more discussions with them along the way. We bought a 600$ maple tree for the backyard that comes with no guarantees. Lowe’s and Home Depot guarantees their plants for a year. Not happy about that. We are treating that tree better then our first born son. Shea homes has been very good to us and we are thankful for that. We are somewhat concerned about having another pool or club seeing all the new building going on. I don’t think the existing pool and club can accommodate all the new homes. ... More

Pre-occupancy walk-throughs are very nice.
