Shea Homes Reviews in Denver, CO

Shea homes builders are not friendly in nature. completely they are thinking as business gain, no customer favor. some are not standard but they are always telling it meet shea standard. Even customer paid for options, not reaching up to standards. No honesty at all. No proper response from shea homes builder and no choice to talk from customer perspective and no response from shea homes builder. Quality wise its not good as per what customer paid. Need to improve a lot in all sectors.

Our Shea home in the Canyons has not been good. First, the salesperson Abbe who sold us the house told us that if we acted quickly we'd get a $50k credit. She didn't explain that $30k of that would only apply if we used Shea Mortgages. Now she's gone to fleece some other people at a different homebuilder. The craftmanship of the house is less than ideal. Our lights keep flickering, appliances don't work correctly, and many of the materials and craftsmanship that they used were less than standard in what I would assume is an effort to maximize their profit. The service folks we've dealt with have been good, even though it seems like their hands are tied by corporate in many of the issues that we've found. Overall disappointed. ... More

This is an extreme disappointment and grief I want to bring into your notice that we are facing each day since we have moved to our new house. There were lot of plumbing/ drainage issues each day at different corners of the house. The delivery of the house came with lot of problems that we did not expect at all with Shea homes. We trusted that home inspections are properly done by Shea at each point especially in plumbing and drainage matters. At this time, in midnight we have called After hour emergencies to get this drainage and plumbing issues resolved. We were at risk of our lives where there was water all over in the jack and Jill bathroom and one of the attached rooms that too underneath the tiles and carpet that we cannot have any control over. In the night, around 11 pm accidentally I went to use the bathroom where I noticed water leaking in jack and Jill bathroom underneath the toilet seat area and bathroom floor tile and it got spread all over underneath the carpet in one of the attached rooms. This was an extremely disastrous for us to have faced such an issue in the middle of the night. It took away my sleep and I woke up my husband to look into it. Our infant sleeps in these rooms, this was not at all okay for us to compromise with the quality and delivery we have got to what we have invested in. Earlier also, we had noticed that bathroom fixtures were not installed properly which we ignored as minor problems and fixed it ourselves but past few days getting each part of the house dismantled and getting it all fixed while residing with an infant is a huge stress for us. I do not know what else to say to show how unhappy we are. We did not expect this kind of work from Shea. We are awake at this time and getting it fixed is so annoying and disturbing for us. I mean do we have to live in fear that something else might come up in future again. Also, there is a structural issue which we have mentioned before closing. The main door is crooked and have gaps which allow the air to pass through. The warranty rep told me to bend your neck and you won’t see the any problem. There are many other issue we mentioned and nothing is getting fixed. Worst experience with Shea homes. ... More

Our experience may be unique, but we did not have a good experience with Shea throughout the buying and build process. It all depends on who you work with in the sales office, the project managers, and how they address issues that arise. Unfortunate given our situation could have been handled very differently with a better outcome.

From start to finish you're simply a # to Shea. They clearly do not care if you have a positive home-buying experience and will cut corners whenever possible. Their trades are subpar at best and their Project Managers have little control of the quality of their work. The excuses for the inferior workmanship come fast and furious and in the end you're left with whatever they choose to deliver to you. At closing our home was not finished and we were left with more excuses. Now two months post-closing and our over-priced $10,000 fireplace still doesn't work. The Rinnai tankless water heater with recirc pump does not deliver hot water and is riddled with glitches making our lives miserable. We have sagging floor boards, nails protruding from the pull-trowel drywall finish and constant electrical issues and these are just a few of the ongoing problems. In the end, I could never recommend Shea to any homebuyer. You'd think that due to their size they'd have safeguards in place to ensure they can deliver a home that is of modest quality but you quickly realize they are so big that they simply do not need to care if you like it or not. ...
