Meet Shayna, a Wayne Homeowner

Shayna shared about some of the customizations she made to her home to ensure it meets her needs and lifestyle for years to come. It’s apparent that she really has created the home of her dreams!

She shares, “seeing my dreams come to fruition every time I come home feels surreal. And I just love being here. Every day I wake up and I just cannot believe it’s still here and that I live here now. Every day I’m so grateful to have this space and be in it.”

Why Shayna Chose Wayne Homes

Shayna chose to build with Wayne Homes because of the initial contact with her New Home Consultant. Shayna shares about her New Home Consultant, “She told me they could help me build the home of my dreams at my budget of choice…She never once tried to push me into a different type of house. It was just all along about my dream house and what I wanted. I knew from then that I had to build through Wayne Homes.”

One of Shayna's Unexpected Changes

Due to local zoning requirements, Shayna needed to add square footage to the main floor of her home.

“Wayne Homes was great with helping us create the perfect sunroom so that I would be happy with spending that money,” Shayna states. “To this day, I just say thank goodness we did this. It’s one of my favorite rooms. It gets so much light, and that’s where we spend a lot of our time. It’s our living room. I love it in there!”

Quotes From Real Homeowners

Sean Nagle, Akron-Medina

The entire team at Wayne homes was great. From the first meeting to closing, the process was smooth and communication was great. They built us a wonderful custom home with great materials at an amazing price. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to build a custom home if you want great value for the money.

Everything went smooth. We especially appreciated the extra effort to get us into our home well before the holidays. The overall craftsmanship is amazing. Butch is excellent, and exceeded our expectations in every way as our construction manager!

Not a day went by when some work was not being done on our house. I can’t believe Wayne could build a truly custom home in under 5 months (and I had A LOT of completely custom modifications)! My field manager was outstanding. Tom was extremely available and willing to help – at any time of day. He kept us up-to-date and made sure I was happy with the results. He also went above and beyond to accommodate several, large, last-minute requests (which he didn’t have to do), which greatly improved the end result. He was truly a pleasure to work with! I would highly recommend Wayne to anyone.

Whenever we needed anything Mark always got it done and always was there! The process went very smooth and pretty quick. We’re so happy to finally be in & we are LOVING our new home!! Thank you all so much

When we first started looking at builders for our new home, we were very nervous about the whole process because you hear horror stories. From our very first interaction with Wayne Homes at the model center to the very last day at closing and getting the keys to our new home, everything went extremely well! Their process is very easy and you are kept in the loop the entire time! Communication is key when having a large project like building a home and Wayne homes is great with communication. Our field manager Ray was so easy to work with and always available even on the weekends if questions came up! The quality of materials they use is also better than their competition in our opinion! We couldn’t be more happy! Thank you for everything!

I highly recommend Wayne Home’s, for their outstanding work in the construction of my home. Over the past year, we have had the pleasure of working with Matt Porter, Sandy Kline, Kyle Philips and others on Keller’s Gettysburg project and I am thoroughly impressed with their professionalism, craftsmanship, and dedication to excellence.From the initial consultation to the final walk-through, Wayne Home’s team demonstrated a keen attention to detail and a commitment to delivering a high-quality product.One of the main reasons we chose Wayne Home’s was because of Matt Porter. Matt made us feel important and truly cared that we selected the house of our dreams. Even after the sales process Matt was always available to answer questions and continue to follow up to ensure we were happy with the construction of our home. The finished product not only met but exceeded our expectations.The most remarkable qualities of working with Sandy Kline, field manager, was his ability to listen to and understand our needs and desires. Sandy was great to work with, he was very caring, authentic and a hard worker. He took the time to provide pictures and weekly updates to ensure the build was to our standards. Sandy’s transparent communication and willingness to address any concerns promptly made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Thank You so much Wayne Home’s we love our home!

From beginning to end, everyone was very helpful! They answered all our questions promptly and everyone was very knowledgeable about everything during the whole process. We had the pleasure of working with Sue Crow who was AMAZING! She continued to check on us throughout the whole process, ensuring we were well taken care of. Tom Strejcek was our project manager and great throughout the process. Due to his hard work, we were able to finish much sooner than we thought! So thankful for everyone that we had on our team!

We had the best experience from first time there. Jeanetta in design really heard what we wanted and spent a lot of time making every detail work. She was patient when she knew I was overwhelmed. Tina the project manager we seriously consider family! She was there for every question, concern or last minute change of plans. Our walk thru she was so thorough and made sure we understood everything. We have said many times, there is seriously nothing we can say bad about Wayne Homes!

It was a great experience building with Wayne Homes, our field manager Tim Bush is amazing, he explained every step, kept us well informed and spent a lot of attention to detail. We have had minor complications, and Wayne Homes corrected them all in a timely manner.

Being this is the third home I’ve built, first with Wayne, the process and experience is unmatched. The ability to customize anything you want is refreshing and really allowed for us to bring our vision to reality for our forever home. From the initial signing to closing, everyone on our build team was friendly, informative and overall kept us reassured that Wayne was the right choice. Our field manager is probably one of the best in the business. He kept us up to date multiple times a week and answered our questions no matter the time or day. He is continuing to check in and follow up with us to make sure we are satisfied even after closing.

We have had THE best experience building our first home. The consultants at the portage center are more than accommodating and helpful, they feel like family from the start! We love our portage team and look forward to the continued process!

Our experience was awesome. Yes..there were a few snags here and there because…Covid!! But they managed everything very well!! And our field manager Matt Weddle was the most important piece on our end!! He went above and beyond to ensure we were pleased. Even addressing things I wanted done that were not the responsibility of Wayne Homes!! I couldn’t be more pleased!!

Phillip Starkey, Delaware

We absolutely love our new home!! It’s so fun being in something that WE designed, seeing it come to life and now living here! We hope to have many, many wonderful years here with our family and friends. Thank you for partnering with us on our journey. We felt like we weren’t just some number or line item on a spreadsheet, we felt like they really cared the whole time. They got to know us. The design process can be a little overwhelming, but they did a great job walking us through it. Our field manager was incredible! Always responsive to any need or question I had (and I ask a lot of questions lol). Always communicating with us, giving us updates through the entire build. He had our best interest in mind, and any time he could effect a positive change on our behalf he would. I think you’ll love your home if you build with Wayne!

Wayne Homes is very attentive to the homeowners needs and goes above and beyond to make sure they deliver exactly what was requested. From color and design with Julie Hoffman to construction with field manager Butch Mundy we couldn’t be happier. We did many design changes and all were delivered with excellent craftsmanship. Huge thank you to all the trades!

We have worked with Jeremy to design our custom home and he has made the process an absolute pleasure. Highly recommend them to anyone looking to build.

Al Brockett, Akron-Medina

Wayne Homes had experienced subcontractors working on our home. The quality shows in the woodwork, drywall, basement block, windows, doors, and elsewhere. We are even happy with the finish materials like lighting, countertops, and plumbing. The field manager was easy to talk to and fair. He led the build process quite efficiently. We moved in our new home in 7 months. Very happy with everything they did. No unpleasant surprises.

The ladies at the office are great. Heidi, our Design Consultant was very detailed when going over plans and picking finishes. Things we didn’t even think about, she did! Overall we are in love with our home. The contractors Wayne Homes used did a great job. Any concerns we had our field manager, David addressed right away. Even being in our home now for a month, we keep in touch with David. Majority of the issues we encountered were with things that Wayne Homes doesn’t deal with (water, sewage, electric hookups on our land). Even though they didn’t have part of that, they still helped and gave advice on how to proceed. It took approx 9 months form our dig date to move in. Each step of the way we were able to look at the work being completed as well as add anything we wanted on our own. I would build with Wayne Homes again.
