From Anum's review
Jun 23, 2025
I've waited 6 months to post a review because it's taken 6 months to fix things that should have been done BEFORE WE MOVED IN. Note * this review is not a reflection of JJ our warranty guy who's been AMAZING. We bought a house in the Fields under the assumption that Shaddock was a reputable builder. Our experience with the sales office was a bit of an annoyance & stressful to begin with but fine, something we could live with. But our experience with the Construction manager Greg Markovic was straight out of hell. We canceled our wedding and eloped so that we could put all our savings into building this home and it's been just a nightmare. Greg is the worst project manager construction oversight person and I'm shocked he has a job still given how many things I've heard from people living in this neighborhood. - zero communication about the build of the home; we had to constantly reach out but ultimately decided to just visit the site 2x a week ourselves - Installed the wrong balusters despite us IMMEDIATELY notifying them the day after install because we were visiting so frequently; Greg refused to fix it because he kept saying he's following the paperwork. I got the design center involved to confirm paperwork and then Joe & corporate involved to make him fix it. - We've had missing vanity lights for 6 months; they were finally delivered in May (we closed in December) and installed in June. And guess what, it's WRONG & I'll explain why in the next point - Our bathroom upstairs, measurements are completely off. Whoever drilled/installed the line for the toilet, did it in the incorrect spot. Because of this (& legal distances of cabinets from toilet etc) the cabinets built and installed are approx 5+ inches shorter than what they should be. And because of this, we were given tiny ass drawers that just barely fits a tube of toothpaste. Tell me how any human can utilize the drawers? And because of all this, it also affected the install of the vanity lights being incorrect (see all pictures for reference) and because of this, the entire design of the cabinet was changed and is different from what we signed in the contracts; and nobody notified us. - Our entire kitchen and bathroom cabinets are the wrong color. I asked Greg about this and he flat out lied saying it was correct. We got JJ involved (bless his sweet heart) who had the painter come in and he confirmed himself the color was wrong. We picked the EXACT color and design from countertop to cabinets as it was modeled in the design center so we knew it was wrong. We chose graphite which is a grey with a grey undertone & he painted it cyberspace which has a blue undertone. Completely changed the look and feel we were going for. - The bath tub and shower pan in 2 bathrooms were stained and disgustingly dirty. They were able to buff one out but the other one couldn't be fixed so it's permanently stained from construction debree. - Water leaks thru the front door whenever it rains - Our backyard fence wasn't even completed properly!?!! How the hell do you miss that? Bless JJ for fixing it immediately because we had a dog and were constantly worried about his safety & him running out (which he did, we lost him once but thankfully caught him) - We were told by HOA that our lights should have be sun sensored? - He was in a rush to turn the house over to us post blue tape walk because he was heading off to vacation; because of ALL the shit we found, we couldn't move in until almost 3 weeks after closing on the house w/ corporate approval because things were still not finished - He tried to normalize a massive crack on the kitchen counter top (pre move); again I had to get the sales office and corporate involved to get it fixed. - He actually removed blue tape that we put on because I assume he didn't want to fix things in his rush to leave for vacation? The list goes on and on. Shaddock maybe is a great builder but I can't speak with confidence about it anymore from personal experience. The only thing I can say is make sure Greg is not the PM or whatever his job title is for your home. You'll be living thru your worst nightmare. read more
