Schell Brothers

Very upsetting i have to deal with all these issues with a new home and now and electrical Panel issue is the current situation. Waiting to hear back on Schell as to what they are going to do as this is a concern and a fire hazard. This is not just one house in the community., but several. Hiring contractors with this many issues is ridiculous

We recently moved into our brand new Lilac, built by Schell Brothers. The home building experience was a dream from start to finish! They communicated with us every step of the way, and made the entire journey seamless. We felt it was a perfect balance of having choices to pick sections at the design studio, but not say many choices that we felt over-whelmed. Our vision of how this home would look is spot on, thanks to the guidance we received from the Schell team throughout. We could not be happier with our dream home.

My friend had a house built by Schell and less than a year later there are cracks on almost all the walls from the house settling (AKA a sign that the house was constructed POORLY) You can tell that these homes really aren't worth the half a million dollars that they're charging. They throw them up in less than month and could care less. Oh, and not to mention the ecological damage it is causing to Sussex county's indigenous species.

What about the trees? They make NO effort to replant what they've destroyed. All of these houses will be under water before we know it. Not to mention the carbon emissions. But who cares about the environment anyway? All there is in this company is greed. DO NOT BUY!

We have been in our Schell Brothers forever home for 7 months and can honestly say they deliver happiness. It is not just a mantra for them, they mean it. The entire process was pleasurable and the team we interacted with is outstanding. Who says you can't buy happiness?

After living in our Schell Brothers home for 4 years now, we are still very pleased with our decision to buy here in South Delaware. The quality of materials, the details to construction and the companies friendliness and commitment to this area is unsurpassed. Thank you.

Critical: Responsiveness This builder has no regard about preserving trees. Obviously it's because it makes it much more cost effective to cut them all down with little regard of the creatures that live on, in or around the forest. So beware if you care at all about nature, wildlife and the environment please consider another builder

I love my home, sales rep, and project mgr but their punch out people are the absolute worst! I have walkthrough items that they've repaired 4 times (not done right), a fire hazard in the laundry room (addressed twice and still not done right), and absolutely no concern for the homeowners time (days and days of missed work waiting for their people).

The punch out guy who supposedly fixed my fire hazard of a dryer was more concerned selling me his services on the side than he was properly fixing my items. Pitiful back end! Had I known it would be like this I'd of never purchased a home from them.

We moved into our house 18 months ago with a major problem in the back Yard(it's on a slope). We were hesitant about signing the contract, but was Assured the problem will be taken care of. They came on three occasions and move dirt around. Each time they showed up, they made the problem worse. We were told this is the best they can do. Right now we cannot walk on part of the backyard and part of the side of the house.

I just want Schell to do the right and decent thing and fix the problem and not just put a band aid on it. I am hoping Schell Brothers can resolve this problem as soon as possible Thank you. Disappointed homeowners.

They say that first impressions are the lasting impressions. When we walked into the Bluebell Model home at the new River Mill subdivision in Glen Allen, VA we fell in love. I remember my wife tearing up and saying ". this is our home". Yes, we bought a Schell Brothers home the Blue Bell model, but not right away. We did the research not only on Schell Brothers but also other builders in the same subdivision.

We also looked at many other home sites by other builders. Non compared to the quality, style and the impression we got just talking to the Schell team. We are now moved into our beautiful Bluebell, first in the River mill besides the Model home. Our experience was nothing but perfect on the entire process. Yes there were some not so perfect moments along the way but Schell Brothers team members made it perfect. We love our home and are blessed to have family and friends who come by and enjoy it as much as we are.

Schell Brothers' homes and communities were one of the first we looked at when we decided it was time to move back to the shore. After looking at communities up and down the east coast we came to the realization that we were comparing every other builder to what we had seen at Coastal Club by Schell. We kept saying "It's nice, but it's not a Schell home" at every other community.

It soon became obvious that Schell quality was what we wanted, and we have not been disappointed. Schell makes the entire home buying process a joy. Their online tools showing floor plans, 3D walkthroughs of homes are outstanding. The online design center showing options made the decisions easy. No other builder has the social media presence, the amazing websites, and the online tools that guide you through your journey like Schell.

It is the people however that made Schell Brothers the number one choice for us. From the sales team to our design center consultant to our construction manager. every single person involved took the time to answer every question we had. We received weekly updates and pictures throughout the build process. We appreciated all of the opportunities to visit the home during the build and ask questions during the framing tour and drywall walkthroughs. Schell even set up opportunities for us to meet many of our soon to be new neighbors. Schell even provided the champagne. Schell commitment does not end after settlement.

We have 100% confidence that any and all minor issues will be taken care of promptly should they arise. We could not be more satisfied. "When you find yourself comparing every other builder to the quality of Schell Brothers, you know that a Schell Brothers' home is the one for you."

Laura and I have now been in our beautiful Schell Brothers home for 18 months. We are just as excited about the home and community today as we were the day we move in. As owners of 10 previous homes we recognize quality when we see it. Laura is an Interior Designer and fell in love with the Whimbrel model. The Schell Brothers quality of fit and finish along with added amenities was beyond our expectations. Finding our forever home has been a wonderful experience.

We searched the Delaware shore for a quality builder and found Schell Brothers had the most beautiful houses, desirable floorplans, and used quality materials. There was no question our next home would be a Schell home. We are beyond thrilled with our new home in Jefferson Creek which is only a short 1-1/2 bike ride away from the Bethany Beach boardwalk.

Everyone we have interacted with have been very professional and accommodating. Jay Hauck (our salesperson) is awesome! Since he is in the model at Jefferson Creek we stop in frequently to visit with our "neighbor". Can't say enough good things about Schell!

Our Schell building experience was fantastic! We settled on our brand new Lilac model January 30th, 2019 and couldn't be happier. From start to finish we enjoyed working with the Schell building family and appreciated their professionalism, guidance and knowledge throughout the building process. We were especially impressed with the attention to details and standards you don't normally see with most other builders in the area. Schell builders really put a lot of thought into the design of their homes and it shows!

Thank you Schell for a pleasant, fun & memorable experience for our family. You truly do build happiness. We already miss the building process. Now comes the decorating and finishing touches on this beautiful home.

We live in the city of Rehoboth Beach, with all it's rules and codes about what you can build. When it came time to do an extensive remodel of our rental property and turn it into a house we could live in full time we wanted a company with the experience to do this. Schell Bros, at the time had a division called Renew that did such work. The reason we went with them was the knowledge of codes, the ability of their designer to rework the foundations of the home and their size and buying power for our appliances and materials.

All in all, it was a wonderful experience. They were able to keep us up on what was going on daily, even though we were living in PA. We have recommended Schell to several of our friends and now they love their Schell house too.

My wife and I have lived in five homes built by five different builders. Schell Brothers is the best - BY FAR! Before we visited Lewes for our first (and only) house hunting tour, our realtor sent us links to several new home builders in the area. Even on paper, we knew we wanted a Schell Brothers home and instructed our realtor to only show us Schell homes.

The Schell Brothers team made our home buying experience a pleasurable one. The Sales Manager was great and always available to answer any question that we had. As we got closer to the start of construction, the Design Team at Schell and Decor Direct helped us choose the perfect finishes for our new home. Once the construction of our home began, the Construction Manager was terrific and kept us updated on the progress of our home at least once a week.

After we moved in, the Warranty Department responded in a timely manner to those things that needed fixing. Now that we have lived in our Schell home for over a year, my wife and I are so happy that we built a Schell Brothers home and that we are part of the Schell family!
