      Complaint Type:
      Service or Repair Issues
      Status:
      Resolved
      5 year carpet warranty. Issues @ eight months. Shaw-manufacturer Style HGP48 Gulf Winds Color: 00530 Silver Fiber: BCF PET Polyester Shaw refused a District and/or Regional Manager to assess the carpet at my request. Manasota Flooring-sub-contractor: will not return calls. Lee P., Operations Manager Chris Q., General Manager (Was to send someone out to secure carpet to floor-did not happen) Warranty request: November 21, 2019 (Rob) (Complained more about his health, his wife’s health and COVID) December 3, 2019 (Rob) June 3, 2021 (Rob) November 19, 2021 (Lee) Carpet Cleaned: (big in warranty per Shaw) October 15, 2020 February 20, 2021 May 16, 2022 December 4, 2022 December 16, 2023 Not a properly executed installation. Impacted surface-level attractiveness. Expected a finished and fit-for-purpose asset. Neal Communities sent Manasota to “fix” the issues however, Manasota did not accomplish, they made it worse. Poor workmanship: Guest room: carpet was (and still is) buckling. Workman cut carpet when trimming around baseboard. Master: Manasota “forgot” to include a transition strip where it meets the tile and wooden strip to secure the carpet to the concrete. They came back and placed a small wooden strip that wasn't secure and it slipped under the carpet. They came back again and placed a larger strip which has shifted. This time the nails will puncture your feet. The carpet now can be lifted off the floor. Manasota blames Shaw saying “they make cheap carpeting” and “Neal sells cheap carpeting”. Shaw blames Manasota and I am stuck with horrific flooring. The resolution would be new flooring in both bedrooms. Manasota stated they would replace carpet with hardwood at a cost of $3,000.00. Not my responsibility to pay for their mistakes.

      I think that the properties in Wysteria in Wellem Park are totally misrepresented, overpriced, overrated and totally not worth investing in . I paid way more than I planned but after buying a DR Horton Home, I decided to bite the bullet and go for quality! Wrong, big mistake ! My advise to anyone who is interested ima Neal Communities Home is to get a home inspection before you settle or make your settlement contingent on a Home Inspection. I used Michael Thomas, Cornerstone Inspections and I am so glad I did ! There are some issues in my home which contribute to electrical, insulation, HVAC, , hot water heater posing a real fire threat. Now who passed the home to secure an Occupancy Permit? That would be the Town of Venice. Then there is the expanded HOA Fees … buy an older built home and renovate. Do not buy a Neal Communities home !!!

      I am sorry to hear you are still experiencing an issue in your home.  I forwarded this to *********************** who is our Director of Warranty and he should be reaching out to get your warranty concerns addressed.
