Shea Homes Reviews

The bill took a really long time. Some areas of workmanship are real poor. Response to issues is poor.

Our sales person has been great, even throughout the pandemic/hurricanes/snow storms, she has stayed in touch with us. Throughout the build on the other hand there were several issues that were addressed but had they been done when first notified issues would have gone smoother. There is still items that have not been resolved since the walk through. Electrical items and lighting that was selected from the beginning, were forgotten and had to be installed later with more cut outs done to drywall. Other issues like; •Sprinklers system had a leak. •Double garage door is having issues. •Doors to backyard, handles are coming off. •Have found several areas where grout is missing in tiles. •The seal around main bathroom tub has cracks all around. ...

The subcontractor PSG Landscaping is ruining your reputation as a stellar builder. Between the combination of our warranty manager and PSG, our experience is: • Both our front and back lawns are completely riddled with lumps under the grass where you cannot walk 5 feet without turning an ankle. • We have a drainage problem in both yards but worse in the back to the point there have been washouts I could crawl through. And every time it rains it gets worse. It rains a lot in the Houston area. • The work is entirely substandard, and PSG is unwilling to do anything about it and the warranty folks don’t seem to have the governance over them to fix things right or in a timely way. Below are some of our experiences in dealing with this situation: • PSG has threatened to cancel our warranty. • Here we are in month two and nothing has been remedied. • PSG regularly misses promised dates and is unresponsive. • PSG staff are rude to your face and see no need to apologize for any of it. • PSG always does the minimum and hightails it out of here and it takes weeks to get them back. • We have to go outside with our dogs so they don’t get out through these washouts. • When PSG fixes something, invariably they break or disable something else. • PSG leaves our gates open after doing work here so our dogs end up getting out even though there are signs posted on both gates. • We have been watching all their work around the development and it’s all the same low standard everywhere. • Our warranty manager Brandon boasts of not responding to customer needs after 5 and before 8. Sometimes he completely ignores our voicemails or texts. He is completely ineffective with PSG. • The entire chain of command in warranty appears to be afflicted this way. • We end up going weeks before anything is done let alone getting a response from warranty. • When something is done, it’s more of the same substandard work. We have a pie shaped lot and a lot of yard for our dogs. I think PSG's experience is limited to very small yards because they have completely failed here. ... More

Too many poor workmanships to mention but one that stands out the most is horrible fit and finish on painting. Just the worst.

SOD was laid unevenly. Cabinets had obvious damage and was incorrectly installed. Electrical mounts are crooked. Cracks already showing up in the driveway and basement foundation. Porch concrete discolored. Baseboards were poorly attached with no pride in workmanship.

We had such a great time building our dream home with shea. We had a very responsive builder who took our wants and needs into account and made them happen. They went above and beyond with everything! Thank you to all the builders and crews that made our dream home so special

We have been in the house (with solar) for two months. As of today, the solar is not turned on. Lots of discussion of why. However, no results. Just got the first PG&E bill. Please resolve.

The communication throughout the process was amazing..Everyone I dealt with was very helpful and you could tell they really cared about making sure our questions needs were meet.

Shea has been great overall. Communication, value, and quality. The only problem that we’ve had was length of construction, but I would trade length for quality any day.

Great customer service!! the house took a little longer then expected. Aimee, Kyle and Connie have been great to work with!!!

I cannot say enough good things about Trilogy team members Kristine, Diana, and Micheal. These individuals are first rate professionals who consistently confirm our perception of Trilogy as a top tier 55+ community.

We had a good experience

The majority of the experience has been awesome. Many of the personnel with whom we have interacted have been outstanding. Mac, Dave, Erin, Mitch, and Suzanne. - Top notch- - Many small items create big headache. Overall great experience, but Shea drops the ball on several aspects which reflect a lack of vision and consideration for residents - 2 HOA organizations to pay every month - system is subpar and cannot handle bandwidth. Must login to the same system using two different account numbers to pay HOA dues. No auto-pay options. Never heard of this. Why 2 logins? I live in 1 neighborhood. If Shea has subcontracted out services, it is Shea's responsibility to then divide up the money and pay what is due to whoever. NOT the resident. - the fence is put on the homeowners, This creates an extremely awkward situation with new relationships with neighbors. residents with dogs have to suffer through movein and the period before a fence can be installed. We must reach out to get the email for neighbors to try and coordinate the plan and payment. My neighbor has elected to not pay me for the fence I coordinated, scheduled for install, and handled in full, This is Shea's responsibility and they have fallen WAY short by throwing this on new homeowners. Do you sell a house with a driveway. I paid >$600,000 for a new home... you can't install a fence??? ignorance! - The majority of homeowners have a truck. Driveways are not long enough for a fullsize truck to park, A mid size truck barely fits, forcing parking on the street. I paid for a decent sized yard and Shea leaves everyone's setback the same. If I purchased a larger yard, my front AND back yard should be larger. I didn't purchase a large yard so the front of my house sits directly on the sidewalk. Balance out the front/back yards for those who paid for more space. Maybe we wanted a longer driveway so we could park in our own property. This is an EXTREMELY ignorant design for an experienced community builder like Shea, who restricts street parking. I'm sure complaints will start before long about vehicles parked on the street, but Shea has caused the issue and there is no solution. Mini driveways do not facilitate vehicle ownership in the USA in 2022. This might make sense in Europe where they restrict vehicle size, but here it provides benefit for Shea to sell more properties and make more money while creating headaches for their unsuspecting new residents. - concrete is problematic. basement, garage, and driveway are already cracked in the field and in the joints after less than 12 months in service. Shea warranty on concrete is insufficient. Concrete will continue to crack and grow larger until after Shea warranty expires, becoming the problem of the homeowner after Shea walks away. Poor quality and workmanship in concrete - many of the screens were bent when forced into the frame, and others were left partially installed because they could not be bent enough and the installer walked away ...

This was our first home purchase that was a new build and everything about our new home is just fantastic. Great quality by SHEA.

This is a beautiful, quality-built home. Nicely designed. The design center was a fun experience. The team of community representatives at Trilogy helped us get settled in comfortably, and will be a great resource going forward.

Great experience...nice people to work with...good team work. A few explanations could have been explained a little better, not living in this environment before, but all in all, very satisfied and pleased.

We have been very pleased with the Trilogy team.

Shea was great throughout the entire building process. When there was an issue they were very responsive to resolve our concerns.

It’s so hard to say this but the walls are much thinner and the quality of the products used is less than average. It is not the Grove quality. We really miss having a convenient light switch in the kitchen and that is just a basic item on a builders to do list. We can hear neighbor talking and can feel cold air coming through the walls.

Good experience so far, I’ve only been at the home 10 days in the last 21/2 months. Minor improvements would be great I.e. soft close hinges on all cabinet doors, soft closing toilet seats, options for ceiling fans in the living and dining rooms. Little details make a big difference.

Donna in sales and Robert in the construction office were equally amazing people to work with.

Terrible service from the realtors and quite unprofessional.

Great experience but escrow company is not good

Great quality and response from Shea

The Evia model home is well made and has a great floor plan with 2 beds and 2 baths. The one big complaint is the position of the heat pump right out the primary bedroom window and the noise for me is too loud.
