I. INTRODUCTION

1. A home is the single most important and largest investment for most Americans.

Homeowners need to know material facts concerning the quality of their home in order to

determine whether they can afford to purchase and to maintain their home. In the Pacific

Northwest, of paramount importance to a reasonable homeowner are facts relating to the care a

builder takes to protect the home from the corrosive effects of our region’s most dominant

weather feature – water.

2. Water and moisture intrusion are the most serious corrosive and degenerative

agents for homes in the Northwest. It is critical that homes here are planned to withstand water

and moisture and are built in accordance with such plans. A builder must take care that the

windows, doors, garages, columns, external architectural features – that all surfaces that are

exposed to groundwater or weather—are constructed to account for such exposure.

3. Code requirements, industry norms in the Northwest, and plans that builders

submit to regulatory agencies to obtain building permits are scrutinized to ensure finished

construction will withstand our wet climate. Home buyers expect, and reasonably rely on the

premise, that a reputable builder will not deviate from code, industry norms, and its own

approved plans when constructing homes for retail sale, especially without notification to buyers

of such deviations from submitted plans, codes, and regulatory requirements.

4. This case arises because defendant Shea Homes, Inc. (“Shea”) chose to build and

sell over 1,500 homes in the Trilogy at Redmond Ridge development (“Trilogy”) that it knew

deviated from its architects’ and contractors’ guidelines, county-approved plans, and

recommendations. Shea intentionally omitted nearly all industry-standard methods for building

homes to withstand our wet weather. And, even after its first homes suffered from various forms

of water intrusion due to the substandard construction, Shea refused to tell its customers of the

problems and continued building new homes with the same defects.

5. To increase its profits, Shea consciously cut out crucial weather-proofing methods

that all responsible Northwest architects and builders include in their homes. Shea ignored

applicable code requirements, industry norms, and its own submitted and approved plans, all of

which required Shea to build homes with metal flashings and sufficient moisture intrusion

barriers, drainage, soil compaction, and construction elements for the homes to withstand the

Pacific Northwest climate.

6. As detailed below, Shea’s own experts, architects, and subcontractors have

admitted and confirmed that Shea purposefully omitted King County-required water and

moisture intrusion prevention components that were specifically called for in Shea’s approved

building plans. Yet Shea never disclosed its purposeful and repeated deviations from the county-

approved building plans.

7. Despite knowing that its customers wanted – in fact expected – durable, low-

maintenance, trouble-free homes, and despite Shea’s own promise to build high-quality homes,

Shea omitted telling buyers of at least the following deviations from the county-approved

building plans, which have directly resulted in significant water damage, rot, and moisture

intrusion that require expensive repairs:

A. Garage Floors: Shea’s approved plans required it to install pea gravel and

a moisture barrier under every garage slab at Trilogy. Shea’s Geotechnical Engineering Report,

which Shea submitted to the County and was incorporated into its approved plans, required

4 inches of pea gravel and moisture barriers under each slab to keep the underground water from

migrating through the concrete. Instead of following those plans, Shea instructed its builders and

subcontractors to ignore the plans and Geotechnical Engineering Report and pour the garage

slabs directly over the bare, and often wet, dirt at the lot – all to save about $50 per house. Shea

omitted telling buyers that it was deviating from the approved plans in construction of the garage

floors. Lacking the required pea gravel and moisture barrier, moisture from the ground under the

slabs seeps up through the garage floors of homes at Trilogy causing odors, mold, deterioration,

and the inability to use the garages in a normal and expected manner. Shea observed the

moisture problems on some of its very first homes, but kept building with its defective methods

to save a few extra dollars. In some cases, Shea ordered its subcontractors to pour concrete in

the rain and over puddles, knowing the slabs would fail, and knowing it would have to replace

the slabs, all in an effort to close the sale before anyone saw the problem.

B. Corbels (also known as knee braces): Corbels are architectural design

elements on the exterior of homes that give the appearance of a beam and support passing

through a wall. They are a common element of “craftsman” style homes. At Trilogy, corbels

were designed to be solid wood 4x4 or bigger posts, joined at an angle, and attached to the siding

of the house. Shea’s County-approved plans required corbels to be installed with metal flashing

to prevent water intrusion and to be attached to the sides of houses with ½” thick lag bolts. But

Shea instructed its builders and subcontractors to ignore these requirements, to nail the corbels to

exterior walls with thin framing nails, and not to install metal flashing. Shea omitted telling any

buyers that it was deviating from the approved plans and standard good Northwest building

practices for the installation of corbels. Lacking the required metal flashing and lag-bolt

attachments, the corbels on homes at Trilogy are uniformly rotting and falling from the sides of

houses. At various stages of development, Shea observed the failing (and falling) corbels, yet

continued to build hundreds more houses with the same defects.

C. Columns. Hundreds of Trilogy homes have columns at or near the front

doors. Some columns also support the roof structure. All are exposed to wind and rain. Shea’s

County-approved plans required columns to be built with water intrusion prevention elements

such as metal flashing, treated structural support posts, weep screeds at the base to allow for

moisture drainage, and concrete pedestals to prevent moisture intrusion from the ground up.

Shea omitted telling buyers that instead of following its plans, it built columns without flashing,

without structural supports, without weep screeds, and without any method of preventing

moisture from coming up from the ground into the components of the columns. As with the

other omissions, Shea cut these important components out to save a few extra dollars per house.

Shea also built hundreds of homes long after an internal investigation revealed that its defective

method of building the columns caused them to rot right “from the beginning” of construction.

As a result of Shea’s failure to follow the County-approved plans for columns, the columns are

rotting from the top and the bottom.

D. Windows. Shea’s County-approved plans called for metal head flashings

above all windows in its homes. Contrary to building code and King County requirements, Shea

deviated from the permitted plans continuously from 2001 to 2008 by omitting the required

metal head flashings above windows. Shea did this without asking for permission from or

informing the King County Building Department. King County Building Department

representative Jane McPherson has testified that eliminating the metal head flashings from the

plans “would never have been approved.” Shea’s retained expert, Randy Hart, has testified in

another case stemming from these same defects that head flashings are industry standard and that

he has not designed a building, or recommended construction of a building, without a head

flashing above a window or door in at least 15 years. Shea omitted informing buyers that despite

its approved plans, it was not installing metal head flashing above the windows in the homes it

was selling. As a result of Shea’s failure to install the metal head flashings above windows as

required in its County-approved plans, water is intruding into the window frames in Trilogy

homes and rotting the trim and surrounding siding.

E. Doors. Just as with the windows, Shea’s County-approved plans required

metal head flashings above its doors. Shea’s own architect testified that window and door head

flashings were critical elements of his design given the wet Northwest weather. Jane McPherson

likewise testified that removing door head flashings would not have been allowed by the County.

Shea omitted telling buyers that despite its approved plans, it was not installing metal head

flashing above the doors in the homes it was selling. As a result of Shea’s failure to install the

metal head flashings above doors as required in its approved plans, water is intruding into the

door frames in Trilogy homes and rotting the trim and surrounding siding.

F. Patios. King County building codes require the installation of L-metal

flashing where wall siding comes in contact with a patio slab. Shea’s own architect advised Shea

not to pour concrete patios against the siding. Despite this advice, Shea poured all of the

concrete at all of its homes directly against the wall siding, and purposefully failed to install the

required flashing. Again, Shea failed to tell its homebuyers that the patios on the houses it sold

were poured without the requisite L-metal flashing. Without the required flashing, water hitting

the siding (rain) runs down against the poured patio and causes the wall siding to rot, which is

what happened at Shea’s model homes, which Shea retroactively fixed with the required L-metal

flashings. Shea’s expert, Randy Hart, has testified that this defect should be corrected at every

home at Trilogy at which it exists.

G. Stone Veneer Wainscoting. The County-approved and permitted drawings

by Shea’s architects required the installation of an L-metal flashing along the top of the stone

veneer wainscoting and under the Hardiplank or Cemplank wood siding above. Shea

purposefully failed to install the required flashing at all Trilogy homes on which it installed stone

veneer wainscoting, and Shea omitted telling homebuyers that the stone veneer wainscoting on

the houses it sold were installed without the requisite L-metal flashing. Without the required

flashing, water that makes its way behind the Hardiplank or Cemplank siding or that runs down

that siding has no way to escape and causes the wall to rot.

H. Decks. As with patios, deck installations are required to have L-metal

flashing where the decking abuts to the wall siding. Shea’s subcontractors have acknowledged

that they knew L-metal flashing was required, but Shea instructed them not to install it. Shea

omitted telling home buyers that it built the decks without the required L-metal flashing.

Without the required flashing, water running down the exterior wall remains in contact with the

decking causing the siding and decking to rot.

I. Drainage. Shea omitted required drainage components, ran downspouts

straight into the soil rather than connecting them to the required tight-line drain, and failed to

correct the problems despite Shea’s knowledge of standing water in crawlspaces that caused

mold and attracted frogs and vermin, standing water in yards, and resulting damage to homes at

Trilogy. Shea directed its subcontractors to frame over standing water in the crawl spaces, and to

install hardwood flooring while knowing the moisture in the crawl spaces would warp the floor

and breed mold on the framing.

J. Driveways. Shea omitted necessary soil compaction and adherence to

weather and soil limitations in constructing driveways and, as a result, hundreds of driveways at

Trilogy have suffered cracking, spalling, settlement, or other failure.

8. As a result of Shea’s reckless and material disregard of the King County building

codes, its own consultants, its subcontractors, and its architects, and Shea’s failure to disclose

any of these omissions to its customers, Plaintiffs have suffered substantial damages. They have,

for example, garage floors that need pea gravel and moisture barriers, corbels and columns that

need replacement, and windows, doors, patios, and decks that need flashing and new trim.

Plaintiffs’ damages are the direct result of Shea’s deviation from King County Code, industry

norms, and its own building plans – none of which deviations Shea ever disclosed.

II. PARTIES

A. Plaintiffs

9. Each of the Plaintiffs purchased a home at Trilogy. The address of each

Plaintiff’s home, the model of the home, and the year of construction by Shea are listed in

Exhibit 1. Exhibit 1 also lists, for each Plaintiff, the recently discovered defectively constructed

elements of such Plaintiff’s home.1 The expected repair costs for all defects at each home,

together with stigma damages based on the known problems with construction at Trilogy

resulting from Shea’s omissions, and trebled under the provisions of the Washington Consumer

Protection Act, exceeds $75,000 for each home and thus for each Plaintiff.

B. Defendant Shea Homes, Inc.

10. Defendant Shea Homes, Inc. is a Delaware Corporation. Shea is registered as a

contractor in Washington under License No. SHEAHI*997D1. Shea is the developer and builder

of Trilogy at Redmond Ridge, which is located in King County, Washington.

III. JURISDICTION AND VENUE

11. The events and actions alleged herein took place in King County, Washington.

The homes which are the subject of this suit are located at Trilogy at Redmond Ridge, which is

in King County. At all relevant times, Shea has been doing business in King County,

Washington, and continues to do so to this day.

12. The United States District Court for the Western District of Washington has

jurisdiction over this matter pursuant to 28 U.S.C § 1332(a). Plaintiffs are residents of

Washington, and Shea is a resident of Delaware and California. After trebling under the

1 Where more than one Plaintiff has owned a single home (i.e., the home has been sold at least once since it was

sold by Shea), all Plaintiffs who have owned such home are listed as owners. See Exhibit 1.

Washington Consumer Protection Act, alleged herein, each Plaintiff’s damages will exceed

$75,000 exclusive of interests and costs.

IV. FACTS

13. Shea is a national company in the business of building and selling new homes and

developing master-planned communities. Trilogy is one of at least 11 “resort communities” that

Shea has developed.

14. Shea has developed and built housing developments across the United States,2

but, prior to building Trilogy, Shea had never built a development farther north than the 39th

parallel (Denver). Trilogy, in contrast, is above the 47th parallel and thus over 550 miles farther

north than any prior Shea development.3 Moreover, all of Shea’s listed developments prior to

Trilogy are in arid, if not desert locales. Building practices that worked adequately in Shea’s

other developments would provide no baseline of effectiveness in the comparatively very wet

Pacific Northwest.

15. Trilogy is a planned adult (age 55 and over) community of 1,522 single-family

“production” homes within 12 divisions. Division Four is a commercial area and Division Seven

is a community center.

16. Trilogy consists of residential homes built in 23 different models, based on square

footage and design, each with two or three “elevation” options. Some of the homes are zero lot

line homes, and they share a party wall with an adjacent Trilogy home.

A. The Design, Development and Approval of Trilogy at Redmond Ridge

17. Shea retained Mithun Architects, a Seattle-based firm, to serve as lead architect

on the Trilogy project. The partner in charge at Mithun, Bill Kreager, was and is one of the

country’s leading architects for residential communities, and he has particular knowledge of the

primary concerns of the over-55 demographic in purchasing a home. One primary concern for

2 Shea’s website, www.sheahomes.com, lists developments in the Phoenix area of Arizona; throughout

California from the Bay Area southward; the Denver area of Colorado; central Florida; Las Vegas, Nevada; Charlotte and Greensborough, North Carolina; Houston, Texas; northern Virginia; and the Seattle Area (Trilogy).

3 Each degree of latitude is approximately 69 miles distant from the next.

those over 55 is a low-maintenance home, which Shea knew from conducting focus groups in the

Redmond area before commencing construction.

18. Even prior to beginning the design of the homes at Trilogy, Mr. Kreager visited

Shea projects in Arizona to observe Shea’s methods and style of construction. Upon viewing

those Shea communities in the Southwest, Mr. Kreager warned Shea that its Arizona

construction methods, which depended on dry weather – including stucco and slab-on-grade

construction – were not suitable for home construction in the much wetter Pacific Northwest.

19. Mithun Architects reviewed climate records for Trilogy before designing a single

model. It learned that the Redmond Ridge area has a particularly wet climate – indeed, it

receives 40 inches or more of rain each year on average, as compared with 32 inches in Seattle,

and just 8.2 inches in Phoenix.4

20. Because of the wet climate in the Pacific Northwest and particularly wet climate

at Redmond Ridge, and its knowledge that Trilogy homebuyers’ (55+ in age) would desire low-

maintenance homes, Mithun Architects designed homes that included metal flashing on all

protruding wood such as at windows and doors and on corbels and columns.

21. The flashing details in the building plans were extensive and numerous, and they

were included in every model of home that Mithun Architects designed for Shea to build at

Trilogy.

22. The diagram below is an excerpt for Model 6220, the “Hemlock,” which is the

most common design built at Trilogy. At least 240 of the Plaintiffs in this action own Hemlock

model homes. These approved plans show Mithun Architects’ intent, and the County’s approval

requiring, that flashing be installed on the protruding wood features.

23. Mithun Architects’ drawings incorporated a soils report prepared by Associated

Earth Sciences, Inc. (“AESI”), the geotechnical engineering firm retained to investigate the

hydrology and geology at the Trilogy building site. AESI concluded that the site was suitable for

construction provided its building recommendations were followed.

24. AESI’s recommendations included the installation of a capillary break (pea

gravel) and a moisture barrier (visqueen) under the concrete garage slabs to be poured at Trilogy.

25. Shea submitted its building plans for Trilogy, including the Mithun Architects’

drawings incorporating metal flashing and the AESI report incorporating the capillary break and

moisture barrier, to the King County Building Services Division in the Department of Permitting

and Environmental Review (“DPER”) under the “Basics” program.

26. The Basics program was set up for larger, more experienced builders who were

going to build the same floor plan multiple times. Basics program plans are reviewed with

heightened scrutiny by the Building Services Division because if anything is missed, it could be

repeated in each home the builder constructs based on that County-approved plan.

27. The Building Services Division expects that a builder in the Basics program

knows how to build homes in accordance with applicable building code and local industry

standards. The Building Services Division reviewed Shea’s plans independent of the site plan

and, once approved, stored the approved plans in its library and cataloged them.

28. For each home building site, a builder in the Basics program could come into the

Division with the site plan indicating which plan approved in the Basics program it would use for

that specific home site, as well as any additional information that the builder needed to provide

to accommodate the site conditions. In this manner, the Basics program sped up the permit

process and Shea used it exclusively in building the 1,522 homes at Trilogy.

29. Once King County had issued the site building permit, Shea was obligated to

build exactly according to the approved plans. If Shea wanted to make site-specific revisions,

the Basics program had a revision process by which Shea could seek revisions for a specific

permit. Absent an error in the approved Basic plan, site-specific revisions to plans in the Basics

library were rare.

30. If a Basics program builder wanted a revision, it had to submit new plans to the

Basic program and get a new plan approval from the County, i.e., start the process all over again.

31. As relevant to the facts of this case, for example, Shea’s elimination of the metal

head flashings that Mithun Architects had specified for every plan at Trilogy was a design

revision that required it to submit new plans. But as Jane McPherson from the Building Services

Division has testified in a related case, King County would never have approved such a revision.

32. Indeed, Shea submitted numerous supplemental design sheets during the 12 years

of active building at Trilogy to address code-required updates to the plans, but Shea never

altered or eliminated from the County-approved drawings the architect’s details requiring metal

flashings on the homes Shea was building at Trilogy. All the while, Shea was building the

homes without these same required flashings.

B. The “Shea Way”: the Manufacturing Process Utilized by Shea at Trilogy

33. Shea let it be known to Building Services Division personnel that the level of

scrutiny that King County required was not what Shea was used to and not how things were done

in the Southwest, where Shea had built its prior projects.

34. Shea challenged virtually every requirement in an effort to reduce its building

costs at Trilogy. It “value engineered” its houses so that, for example, Shea built with the exact

minimum number of nails. It created a climate during construction at Trilogy that encouraged

and often required subcontractors to cut corners wherever possible.

35. Shea’s corner cutting at Trilogy became so renowned that its subcontractors, who

Shea dubbed “TradePartners,” coined the phrase “the Shea Way” to describe Shea’s relentless

focus on the bottom line, including minimizing construction costs and maximizing the speed at

which Trilogy homes were built.

36. During the course of construction, Shea repeatedly demanded unilateral and

immediate price reductions from its TradePartners – by as much as 13% – under threat that if the

TradePartner did not cut its price for doing the same scope of work, Shea would put the work

back out to bid.

1. Shea Cut Corners on Garage Floors – Shea omitted moisture barriers and capillary breaks on at least 958 Trilogy homes.

37. Shea began cost cutting at Trilogy right at the bottom with its first homes: Shea

ordered its concrete subcontractors to pour driveways and garage slabs over uncompacted and wet

ground without draining the site as the plans required. It omitted the gravel and moisture barrier

that its geotechnical engineer required Shea to install under the garage slabs.

38. In late 2000 or early 2001, Shea Homes contacted a concrete contractor, Artistic

Concrete Design, Inc. (“Artistic”) to bid the Trilogy project. Shea’s project manager, Alexander

(“Zander”) Hawxhurst, contacted Artistic’s president, Raymond Harvie, for a pre-construction

meeting to do a job walk and discuss the project. At that meeting, Hawxhurst provided

approximately 16 full sets of building plans (drawings) to Artistic. He asked Mr. Harvie to bid each

plan set for turn-key installation of all concrete hardscapes which included: garage floors, patios,

sidewalks, entry, and driveways. Shea required that each concrete subcontractor’s bid include costs

for all labor, materials, pumps, tools, and equipment to complete the work. Artistic’s original

estimate for the Trilogy project was based on the plans Shea provided and included labor, concrete,

any necessary concrete pumps, rebar, moisture barrier, and other materials. Artistic did not provide

any lot excavations or slab base preparation (i.e., import or export of structural base, or removal of

spoils). These services were provided by different Shea subcontractors.

39. After Mr. Harvie submitted Artistic’s bid for the Trilogy at Redmond Ridge project,

Hawxhurst told Mr. Harvie to remove from his bid the line items for rebar and moisture barrier.

This surprised Mr. Harvie, considering that Artistic had quoted a price of just 15 cents a square foot

to install the moisture barrier the plans required.

40. Shea’s decision to remove the moisture barrier from the scope of work for the garage

slabs caused Mr. Harvie great concern. At a follow-up meeting with Hawxurst, Mr. Harvie told

Hawxhurst that moisture barriers were industry standard here in the Northwest due to the amount of

rain, the proclivity of hydrostatic water intrusion, and the underground springs so common in this

area. Hawxurst told Harvie that Shea was not required to install a moisture barrier or rebar under the

garage slabs at Trilogy, and therefore, it wouldn’t do so, regardless of the local conditions.

41. Mr. Harvie warned Hawxhurst, Ken VanWestrienen, and other Shea representatives

about the risks of using Shea’s standard Arizona construction practices (i.e., slab over bare dirt

foundations and footings, stem wall foundations, no moisture barrier) here in the Pacific Northwest.

Mr. Harvie recommended to the Shea group that it listen to the local builders and re-think Shea’s

building practices to avoid almost certain long term failures. Despite the advice, Shea stuck to the

Shea Way, cutting corners (and costs) wherever possible.

42. As Hawxhurst directed him, Artistic removed all rebar and moisture barrier pricing

from its bid package, and Artistic ultimately poured Trilogy garage slabs directly onto bare soil per

Shea’s instructions. Shea instructed other concrete subcontractors to bid their work the same way.

43. As Mr. Harvie predicted, hundreds of the Shea Way garage slabs have failed.

Lacking the moisture and capillary breaks, the garages suffer from standing water, chemical

deposits (“efflorescence”), ugly stains, or all three of these conditions. The photographs below

are Trilogy garages that show the result of pouring the slabs without the required moisture

barriers or capillary breaks underneath:

44. Even at houses where Shea attempted to conceal the problem by installing plastic

tiles on top of the wet garage floor before selling the home, evidence of the problem is now

apparent as efflorescence makes its way up through the joints in the plastic tiles:

45. Homebuyer surveys completed in 2002 at Shea’s request, and recently obtained

from Shea’s files, demonstrate that Shea knew of the water problems caused by the Shea Way of

construction at the beginning of the Trilogy building cycle. Pursuing cost savings over quality,

Shea continued to pour concrete over bare, wet dirt, and ignored its consultant’s requirements to

keep the garages dry. Shea simply ignored the County-approved plans.

46. The following examples, from three different surveys of early Trilogy

homebuyers in 2002, show Shea was clearly on notice that its construction was inadequate:

“Since living in the home for six weeks, I have found troubling quantities of water underneath the house. This appears to be due to improper and misdirected drainage set-up.”

“Drainage grades were very poor on lots. Severe problems with water in crawlspace.”

“Customer service is still trying to fix loose flooring and wet crawl space. We have been given several reasons for the wet crawl space. Had to pay for an expert to evaluate water drainage problem and have had to remind Shea that the work needs to be done.”

47. The added emphasis immediately above has proved, over the years, to be an

important and consistent part of Shea’s strategy in responding to Trilogy homebuyers and

prospective homebuyers who called out the water issues in homes at Trilogy. Shea concocted a

string of false explanations as to why its homes were exhibiting atypical problems for new

homes, particularly given that they were built and marketed as high-quality and low-

maintenance. Shea would, for example, tell homeowners that water coming up through the

garage floor was “typical” of the Northwest, or that efflorescence was a consequence of concrete

“curing.” Shea also developed internal “scripts” for its personnel to use with homeowners to

explain away these various defects and resulting problems, all while failing to disclose that it

knew exactly what the real source of the problem was: the Shea Way.

48. One of the first Trilogy buyers who noticed water in their crawlspace and a wet

garage floor contacted a drainage contractor, Bodine Construction, to assess the drainage at their

new Trilogy home. Bodine found extensive problems with the drainage and prepared reports

documenting the issues. In January 2003, Shea contacted Bodine:

50. Shea ultimately hired Bodine to perform drainage inspections on over 100 homes

at Trilogy in 2003. Bodine found numerous problems and provided Shea with written reports

complete with color photographs. Bodine determined that even the clubhouse at Trilogy

required over $40,000 in drainage remediation work well after it was completed. Bodine’s

inspections revealed several inches of standing water in crawlspaces, a lack of pea gravel, and

other defects, including in a home that Shea currently had on the market.

51. Shea never disclosed any of these conditions to prospective Trilogy buyers, and

never told any prospective buyers or owners at Trilogy that, despite the known, wet conditions

on Redmond Ridge both above and below ground, it had directed its concrete subcontractors to

omit the engineer-required pea gravel and moisture barrier from their scope of work in pouring

the garage slabs.

52. To the contrary, Shea promised that its foundations systems were “engineered for

local soil types to ensure greater structural integrity,” and that it took extra steps to ensure proper

drainage:

53. Early in 2003, as Shea’s recently disclosed internal files revealed, Shea customer

service personnel – who were either unaware of Shea’s omission of the moisture barrier and pea

gravel under the garage slabs or were directed by their superiors to search for an excuse – began

researching the possible cause of water intrusion and efflorescence on the garage floors at

Trilogy. They obtained a concrete industry article that indicated the likely source: lack of

moisture barrier and capillary break.

54. Rather than reveal the problem to homebuyers or change its construction practices

(adding perhaps $50 to the cost of each home for the plastic and gravel), Shea began concocting

false explanations. In early 2005, Shea wrote to multiple homeowners:

55. Instead of coming clean and admitting the true source the problem, Shea blamed

the wet garage floors on a change in the temperature:

56. Shea had not actually obtained or read the referenced article, but instead copied

the reference from a Yahoo search result for “wet garage floors,” which was intended in answer

to a question about wet garage floors after a drop in temperature in Louisiana:

57. A short time after Shea provided that inaccurate explanation to Trilogy

homeowners, Shea representative Ella Montgomery contacted its Arizona concrete contractor,

Jim Bebout, regarding the garage floor problem at Trilogy. Mr. Bebout’s response was

straightforward:

58. Mr. Bebout went on to describe the only two methods of dealing with the

problem, and both methods require removal of the garage slab. He also wrote:

59. Nevertheless, more than a year later, Shea was still building garage slabs without

the required moisture barrier and capillary break (even though it had already been forced to

replace a few slabs and install these omitted construction elements). And, as a recently obtained

internal Shea document demonstrates, Shea was even considering using a sealer despite its own

Arizona concrete subcontractor having advised against it:

60. Without justification, Shea refused to repair or replace its defective garage slabs.

Instead, Shea used a widely discredited calcium chloride test for water transmission through the

slab, but told homeowners: (1) that the test could only be performed in the dry months; (2) that

the test results could not be shared with the homeowner; and (3) that the test result was just “one

of several factors” that Shea considered in deciding whether a particular garage slab should be

replaced. All the while, Shea was building homes on sites so wet that—even in summer months

like August—they contained deep standing water as in the photograph below.

61. Finally, on October 3, 2006, Shea began installing moisture barriers under garage

slabs on the homes it was building at Trilogy. But by that time, Shea had built 958 Trilogy

homes without the required moisture barrier or drain rock. To date, Shea has replaced 101

garage slabs, installing moisture barriers before re-pouring those slabs. But 871 defectively

constructed and installed garage slabs remain at Trilogy. Each homeowner was subject to the

same omission by Shea, namely it omitted to tell them that the garage slabs were not constructed

and installed according to the County-approved plans and soils report. And each homeowner has

suffered the same result: water and efflorescence percolate through their garage slab.

62. At least 388 of the Plaintiffs in this action have garage slabs defectively

2. Shea Cut Corners on Corbels – Shea Omitted Metal Flashing on Corbels and Knee Braces.

63. Certain models of Trilogy homes, including at least 70 of Plaintiffs’ homes, have

knee braces and/or corbels. A knee brace extends off the house with a horizontal, 6”x6” timber

supported by a vertical member flush against the house and an angled member creating a

triangle. A corbel or outlooker is the horizontal member by itself. (Sometimes the terms

“corbel” and “knee brace,” are used interchangeably.) Both corbels and knee braces can be seen

in this photograph of a Trilogy home:

64. In the photo, there is a knee brace in the foreground and another at the peak of the

roof below the fascia. There are several corbels that run across the top of the garage. Although

corbels and outlookers may look good from ground level to unsuspecting Trilogy home buyers

and owners, Shea omitted the required metal flashing from atop knee braces and corbels at

Trilogy from 2002 to 2012. As a result, regardless of how well a homeowner maintains their

home, the corbels and knee braces rot.

65. The four photographs below are from one Trilogy home shortly before and during

the removal and replacement of the knee braces and corbels:

66. Trilogy home buyers Bill and Diane Fehr had to replace the corbel shown in the

photo below and numerous others at their Trilogy home after Shea had “repaired” them once

already, and despite the Fehrs’ regular maintenance of their home’s exterior:

67. An internal Shea document recently obtained shows that in August 2009, Shea

calculated its “Exposure by Plan” for each of the home plans (models) at Trilogy based on its

omission of the flashing from the corbels and knee braces. Shea calculated that the cost of

replacing those components on the 671 homes that it had built by that time was in excess of $1.4

million.

68. Despite having to replace rotted corbels on its model homes, and intentionally

omitting the structurally required ½” lag bolts, Shea continued to build homes with unflashed

corbels and knee braces until 2012, and all the while Shea told homeowners that their rotting

corbels were due to a lack of adequate “homeowner maintenance.” On the model homes that

Shea repaired and then sold to unsuspecting buyers, Shea asserted in an internal document that

the rotting corbels would be attributed to “homeowner maintenance” after the sale. As with all

its omissions, Shea never disclosed to any buyer the deviations from approved plans.

69. Rotted corbels and knee braces have fallen off of several Trilogy homes. Shea

even secretly replaced one such fallen corbel, using a work crew that Shea specifically instructed

not to wear the Shea-standard, blaze orange work shirts. Shea was so intent on hiding its need to

repair the failing corbels that it took great pains to deceive the Trilogy homeowners so they

wouldn’t learn that the failing corbels were not a “homeowner maintenance” issue but rather

were a problem of Shea’s own making.

70. As Shea discovered more and more rotting corbels between 2009 and 2011, it

looked for ways to limit its potential $1.44 million “exposure.” Shea settled a pending class

action lawsuit involving only failing and moldy paint, known as the “Gaines Litigation” or

“MOTH (Mold on the Houses) Litigation.” It then claimed that it had intended to include all

possible construction defect claims within that limited settlement. After settling the paint case,

Shea personnel circulated an internal email dated October 24, 2011 which, after studying the

plan to contend it had settled all possible defect claims, concluded that the Gaines settlement

could not be interpreted so as to include the rotting corbels and columns.

71. Nevertheless, Shea personnel – including Area Vice President Richard

Obernessor, in June 2012 – advised Trilogy homeowners after the October 24, 2011 email that

any claims regarding rotted corbels were barred by the prior class action settlement. Indeed,

Trilogy homeowners Bob and Gwen Blough received that explanation from Patti Conrad of Shea

in a letter dated May 31, 2012:

72. And Shea made the same, false assertion in a subsequent legal action, Blough, et

al. v. Shea Homes, Inc., both in arbitration in December 2012 and in its failed Motion to Dismiss

filed in that action in July 2013.

3. Shea Cut Corners on Columns – Shea Omitted Water Intrusion Elements on Every Column It Built at Trilogy

73. The architect’s plans required flashings on the tops of columns to prevent water

entry, and weep screeds at the bottom to allow any water that entered the column to escape.

These elements are essential to prevent rot. Omitting either component will lead to water

damage. Nonetheless, consistent with the Shea Way of doing business, Shea omitted flashing on

most columns and omitted the weep screed on every column at Trilogy.

74. After seeing many of the columns fail and repairing its own model homes, in

2007 Shea quietly investigated the cause of the failing columns on numerous homes at Trilogy.

It inspected homes without informing the homeowners so as not to arouse concern. Shea

concluded that “water is penetrating the cavity of the column in several ways. This has [caused]

and is currently causing damage to the different building materials used in the construction of the

column.” The report’s author also wrote, “I noticed that the footing or base of each column sits

below the flatwork of the home. This is a major concern that will cause water to penetrate from

the bottom up. The column base should be set above flatwork just as porch columns are done in

a typical installation practice.”

75. The report noted that the columns had been rotting from the inside out, that this

process likely began “soon after installation of the building materials,” and that “all materials

will eventually erode and challenge these areas as time moves forward.” The author questioned

whether the information should be shared with Trilogy owners. Not surprisingly, Shea kept the

report and its findings a secret.

76. In 2009, an internal Shea email by Shea’s area vice president acknowledged “a

struggle on the columns from the outset” of the project. And in 2011, an internal Shea email

acknowledged that columns were not built to plan and noted, “It states clearly on the plans that

the plan is for the architectural design and that flashing and weatherproofing are the

responsibility of the contractor.”

77. Despite this clear knowledge, Shea advised Trilogy homeowners that the column

failures were a “homeowner maintenance” issue. Here is an example of just one Trilogy

homeowner’s problems with her columns, in spite of the fact that she regularly and properly

caulked and painted per Shea’s recommendation:

78. A close-up of the column shows it was well-painted and caulked:

80. The column was built without a weep screed, and there is no concrete supporting the

framing. As a result, the entire column, like every other column at Trilogy, must now be

replaced.

81. The same condition can be found upon opening columns throughout Trilogy,

including at many other Trilogy homes such as this one:

82. As with corbels and knee braces, Shea replaced failed columns on its own model

homes before selling them, but it never revealed this problem to its customers. Instead, corporate

policy required its customer service representatives to tell the future owners, and all other

Trilogy homeowners, that the water problems were attributable to “homeowner maintenance.”

83. Shea never disclosed its knowledge that columns throughout Trilogy were rotting

from the inside because of the corners Shea cut in construction. Shea chose to continue building

the inherently defective columns, knowing the problems would not reveal themselves until after

the one-year warranty period ended. At that point, Shea could and did blame the problems on

“homeowner maintenance” without ever revealing that it had omitted key construction

components and that it knew the columns had been rotting from the date they were built.

4. Shea Cut Corners on Windows and Doors – It Omitted the Required Head Flashings

84. The architect’s plans for Trilogy approved by the County included several details

requiring a head flashing above all windows and doors such as the one shown above in

Paragraph 25 from the Hemlock plans. The architect had contemplated flashings on all windows

and exposed trim from very early on, including in a letter to Shea dated May 22, 2001 which

included, among recommended specifications:

85. Shea’s own, subsequent specifications for the project dated October 8, 2001

likewise called for these flashing details to be followed:

86. And the window manufacturer, Milgard, also provided Shea with installation

standards that include a head flashing, but Shea rejected it, as evidenced by a document obtained

from Shea’s internal files:

87. To save a few bucks per house, however, and rather than build the homes at

Trilogy as required by: (1) the architect; (2) the County; (3) the building code; (4) the window

manufacturer; and (5) even its own specifications, Shea simply omitted the 26-gauge metal

flashing and eliminated the 2x4 trim above the windows during the first seven years of

construction at Trilogy and into 2008 – by which time Shea had sold the large majority of homes

and reaped the profits from its deceptive practices.

88. Shea’s siding contractors, just like Shea’s concrete contractor, urged Shea to

follow the plans and install the necessary flashings. As with the other advice it received, Shea

ignored it and instructed its siding contractor to run the horizontal lap siding right up to the

windows and doors and then slap cheap 1x4 white wood on top of the siding as “trim.” As a

result, water makes its way behind the trim causing rot damage to the trim and siding from the

inside that is hidden from the unsuspecting Trilogy homeowner.

89. Only several years later, when the rot has made its way to the exterior of the trim,

does a homeowner learn the consequence of Shea’s omission of the head flashings. Here is a

window on one Trilogy home, and you can see that water has made its way behind the trim and

is coming out the bottom:

omission of head flashing:

Rot discovered under paint Close-up of rot at door trim

92. Shea’s own expert has acknowledged under oath that Shea omitted head flashing

above doors throughout the project.

5. Shea Cut Corners on Patios – Shea Omitted Flashing at the Patios

93. At every home at Trilogy, Shea omitted the flashing at the patio-to-wall interface,

and instead Shea poured concrete directly against wood siding. This was in violation of the

building code, industry standards, and the architect’s recommendations.

94. In 2002, the architect provided a Shea-requested detail but specifically noted that

Shea’s plan to pour the patios against the wood rather than the foundation was not recommended:

95. Shea’s subcontractors likewise urged Shea not to pour concrete patios against the

wood and to install an L-metal flashing. But Shea omitted the flashing. The patios poured at

Trilogy “pull” the house down when settling, such as what occurred at this Trilogy home:

96. And Shea’s failure to install an L-metal flashing also means that water makes its

way down between the patios and the wood, which leads to damage such as at this Trilogy home:

97. As with corbels, knee braces, and columns, Shea replaced damaged wood due to

missing patio-to-wall flashing on one of its own model homes before selling it.

101. Shea failed to install the required flashing on 851 Trilogy homes. And Shea

failed to acknowledge its omission even when homeowners such as this one raised concerns:

102. The lack of flashing above the wainscoting prevents water from draining away

from the wall, allowing water to remain against the wood behind the impermeable wainscoting

materials and causing rot behind and above the wainscoting. The photo below is of a Trilogy

home with rot – including visible mushrooms growing – atop the unflashed wainscoting:

7. Shea Cut Corners on Decks – Shea Omitted the Flashing at the Deck-To-Wall Interfaces

103. The approved plans for Trilogy required a water resistant membrane to be

installed where the decks meet the house. This requirement was in the original drawings for

Trilogy and all modified versions:

104. A similar detail was included in the permitted drawings for individual decks built

by Shea at Trilogy after original construction, such as this detail from Lot 1165 at Trilogy which

clearly shows that flashing is required:

105. Shea built the decks at Trilogy directly against the siding and/or wood trim, like at

the Trilogy home shown here:

106. If installed, the flashing allows water to escape from behind the siding onto the

deck while also preventing water from making its way down into the deck-to-wall joint, where it

can cause rot. That z-flashing is required if the deck is not built at least two inches below the

siding, as required by the building code, the siding manufacturer, and standard good building

practice:

107. When homeowners inquired about the missing flashing, Shea misrepresented its

obligation to install such flashing. For example, one new Trilogy homeowner wrote to Shea in

2012 expressing several concerns with her deck, including the missing flashing:

I noticed there is no mention of the flashing that is missing where the deck is attached to the house. The bolts are just screwed right into the siding on the house. Flashing is definitely needed. I assume you will also be fixing this so I don’t have any eventual water damage from the rain water getting in behind and under the siding.

108. Patti Conrad of Shea responded to her with this inaccurate statement:

109. As a result of Shea’s omission of the required flashing at the deck-to-wall

interface, water damages Trilogy homes at that interface. The photograph below shows an

example of the rot damage that results and that can go unseen for years under the exterior paint:

8. Shea Cut Corners on Drainage – Shea Installed Inadequate Drains and Ventilation in Crawl Spaces

110. As noted above, Shea had extensive knowledge very early on in its construction

of Trilogy that its home sites had inadequate drainage, that homes suffered standing water in the

crawlspaces and yards, and that as a result of the moisture many homes suffered hardwood floor

damage including cupping, warping, and separation. Shea agreed to replace numerous hardwood

floors at Trilogy (while denying the existence of a problem or any liability to other Trilogy

homeowners), and when in 2006 Shea tried to blame its flooring supplier, Superfloors, Shea got

a swift rebuke from Superfloors explaining the problem again, as it had previously: moisture.

111. Shea ignored the advice and did nothing to address the moisture problems. It

should have been no surprise to Shea when, a year later, Superfloors submitted an independent

inspector’s report to Shea regarding another Trilogy home with moisture problems and failing

floors. The inspector’s conclusions were the same:

112. Shea still concealed and refused to acknowledge that it had caused the problems

by refusing to spend the money necessary to install the proper drainage at Trilogy. Shea

continued this ruse for years, including two years later when, in 2009, Shea made an insurance

claim to recover the costs of replacing that very floor due to the moisture damage. Shea

represented to its insurer that the floor was damaged during other repair work:

113. Shea made numerous other insurance claims and recovered money for hardwood

floors Shea replaced due to excessive moisture, while at the same time Shea was telling other

homeowners that it was not responsible for their floor problems.

114. Shea installed crawlspace fans in various homes but concealed the real reason for

having done so. Shea even prepared a script (“external conversations”) for customer service

representatives (“CSRs”) to use in explaining the crawlspace fans to homeowners, with a

separate, explanatory section (“internal information”) for the CSRs’ eyes only that has

contradictory information and demonstrates that Shea’s representations to owners were

intentionally deceptive.

115. Shea has continued its unfair and deceptive practice regarding its omitted

drainage and damage right through to 2014, professing to have no knowledge of ongoing

drainage problems at Trilogy. Patti Conrad, a Shea CSR, wrote to Plaintiff Jim Green in 2014,

concocting a slew of false reasons for the problems with moisture and hardwood floor failures at

Trilogy homes. Wrote Ms. Conrad:

As a builder, Shea Homes cannot control over what has occurred over the many years the home has been occupied, specific to weather conditions, additional hardscaping in the back of the home, augmented landscaping and the natural movement and evolution of the protected wetland directly behind this home.

116. By the time Ms. Conrad of Shea wrote this in April 2014, Shea had known for 12

years that its defective drainage saturated the ground under and around the Trilogy homes. The

virtual ponds below the hardwood floors were breeding grounds for mold and damaged the

floors, such as occurred at the Greene home and many other plaintiffs’ homes.

9. Shea Cut Corners on Driveways – Shea Poured Slabs Directly Over Wet Soil and During Heavy Rains

117. Shea poured driveways at Trilogy on uncompacted, wet soil, and as a result

driveways are failing in multiple divisions throughout Trilogy. Shea knew that its methods of

construction were causing driveways to fail as far back as 2003, as indicated by a homeowner’s

email to Al Seaton of Shea:

118. Just as it refused to compact the soil below the garage slabs and drain the crawl

spaces before building, Shea refused to alter its faulty construction practice. As a result, the

aggregate on the driveways spalls, as it has here at the home of Plaintiff Joan Myers:

119. The failing, spalling driveways built by Shea lead to pooling water and further

failure. Failed aggregate pours into gardens, curb gutters, and storm water outfalls.

120. Shea replaced only a select few failed driveways, even making insurance claims

to recover the monies it spent correcting its own defective work:

121. True to the Shea Way, Shea continued to tell homeowners, including Plaintiff

Joan Myers and others, that the driveways were within industry standards, while at the same time

Shea customer service personnel mocked Trilogy homeowners, in internal emails, for their

“driveway envy.”

C. Plaintiffs’ Homes at Trilogy Are Defective and Require Extensive Repair

122. Every one of the more than 1,000 homes inspected prior to the filing of this

lawsuit, including all of Plaintiffs’ homes, has at least one of the defects described above. Most

homes, including hundreds of Plaintiffs’ homes, have many or all of the defects, and as moisture

and water continue to penetrate the construction at Trilogy, additional defects are currently being

exposed.

123. As set forth for each Plaintiff in Exhibit 1, each Plaintiff’s cost of repair and

stigma damages to their property value is expected to exceed $25,000. Treble damages as

allowed under the Washington Consumer Protection Act, RCW Ch. 19.86, bring each plaintiff’s

total damages to in excess of $75,000, exclusive of interest and costs.

124. Shea has admitted that for all 958 Trilogy homes at which the garage slab was

poured prior to October 3, 2006, Shea failed to install those garage slabs in the manner required

by its geotechnical engineer; namely, Shea omitted the moisture barrier and capillary break that

was to be installed prior to pouring the slab. Some homes have multiple garage slabs, including

a main garage and a second, smaller “hog pen.” Beginning sometime after October 3, 2006,

Shea replaced at least one garage slab at 101 different Trilogy homes.

125. There are 871 homes at Trilogy, including 388 of Plaintiffs’ homes, that have

defective garage slabs insofar as they were constructed without the required moisture barrier and

capillary break. Fourteen of the 101 houses where Shea has replaced one but not both slabs, will

require replacement of the remaining slab.

126. In 2009, Shea prepared an analysis of its “Exposure by Plan” for each of the

models at Trilogy that included knee braces or corbels. According to Shea’s own internal

analysis the total cost of replacing those components on the homes built to date exceeded $1.4

million. Shea did not replace those components, however, but instead continued building homes

at Trilogy through and including 2011 without flashing the knee braces or corbels. 597 homes at

Trilogy were built with defective corbels and knee braces, including Plaintiffs’ homes as set

forth in Exhibit 1.

127. Shea’s 2007 investigation of columns and one of its own experts concluded that

the footing or base of each column at Trilogy sits below the concrete flatwork of the home, and

that this is a major concern that will cause water to penetrate from the bottom up. Every home at

Trilogy with columns suffers from this defective manner of column construction. There are 687

homes at Trilogy that have defective columns that require repair, including Plaintiffs’ homes as

set forth in Exhibit 1.

128. On all of 1,275 of the homes that Shea built at Trilogy before May 1, 2008, Shea

omitted the required head flashings above every window. When Shea finally began installing the

required head flashings, it did so sporadically so that of the remaining 207 homes built after May

1, 2008, at least 75 additional homes lack required window head flashings. There are at least

1,350 homes at Trilogy that have defectively installed windows that require repair, including

Plaintiffs’ homes as set forth in Exhibit 1.

129. Shea’s own expert admitted under oath in a related lawsuit that none of the

architect-specified and county-required metal head flashing is installed above the doors at

Trilogy. There are 1,522 homes at Trilogy that have defectively installed doors that require

repair, including Plaintiffs’ homes as set forth in Exhibit 1.

130. For every Trilogy home with stone veneer wainscoting, Shea omitted the required

metal flashing. There are 851 homes at Trilogy that have defectively installed stone wainscoting

that require repair, including Plaintiffs’ homes as set forth in Exhibit 1.

131. Shea’s own expert has admitted that concrete should not have been poured against

white wood as it was at Trilogy homes. All 1,522 homes at Trilogy have defectively installed

concrete patios, including Plaintiffs’ homes as set forth in Exhibit 1.

132. Shea failed to install the required flashing at the deck-to-wall interface of every

home at Trilogy with a deck, and those decks all require repair, including on the homes of all

Plaintiffs.

133. Shea failed to install the required drainage at many Plaintiffs’ homes, and as a

result these Plaintiffs have incurred or will incur thousands of dollars in drainage repairs, mold

remediation, and/or hardwood floor replacement.

134. Shea failed to properly compact the ground or pour the driveways at dozens of

Plaintiffs’ homes, and as a result these Plaintiffs have incurred or will incur thousands of dollars

in driveway repairs and/or replacement.

D. Shea Knows and Has Known for Years that Its Building Practices Are the Cause of the Defects in Homes at Trilogy, Yet it Refuses to Make Required Repairs and Instead Requires Homebuyers to Make Costly Repairs Under its “Homeowner Maintenance” Rubric

135. Recently obtained, internal Shea emails and statements by Shea personnel are

shocking in their brazenness, including even outright mocking of homeowners for having

“column envy” or “garage envy” when, for example, Shea replaces one homeowners’ defective

component while giving a litany of baseless explanations to another homeowner as to why the

identical defect on her home is simply a “homeowner maintenance” problem.

136. Shea customer service personnel responsible for responding to homeowner

complaints about problems with their homes even joked internally in emails that the numerous,

concealed defects on Trilogy homes guaranteed them:

137. Carolyn Young, Shea’s Customer Service Manager, recently explained

homeowner “envy” under oath:

138. For example, Ms. Young inspected the Nicholsons’ home and discovered that the

column, which supported a roof structure, in addition to being severely saturated with water, was

“missing the 4 x 4 structural support.” Ms. Young’s concern was not the structural integrity of

the home, but rather the neighbor’s “column envy”:

139. For years prior to Ms. Young writing this email in 2011, Shea already knew of the

widespread water intrusion issues occurring at Trilogy. In 2007, Shea commissioned an internal

report on columns:

140. Although Shea has represented to one court that these are “minor problems,” its

own internal analyses recently obtained clearly demonstrate that Shea has known from the outset,

but has never disclosed to buyers or owners at Trilogy, that these are serious and systemic

problems directly and solely attributable to Shea’s omissions.

141. These omissions were material in every respect. The Shea Way – of cutting

corners to cut costs, of misleading and deceiving elderly home buyers while internally mocking

them, and of flouting its own geotechnical engineer, its architects, the County, and its

subcontractors’ strong urgings throughout Shea’s construction, marketing, and sale of the homes

at Trilogy – was unanticipated and unknowable by every buyer at Trilogy.

V. EQUITABLE TOLLING OF STATUTES OF LIMITATIONS

142. Plaintiffs’ claims are subject to both equitable estoppel, stemming from Shea’s

knowingly and fraudulently concealing the facts alleged herein, and equitable tolling, stemming

from Plaintiffs’ inability to obtain vital information underlying their claims. Shea is estopped

from relying upon a statute of limitations defense because Shea purposefully concealed its

knowledge of the above-described defects, and Shea purposely concealed its failure to seek

approval from the King County Building Department for its modifications to, and omissions

from, the approved building plans. Separate and apart from Shea’s acts of concealment, any

applicable statutes of limitations are properly tolled because Plaintiffs did not know and could

not have learned the true facts underlying their claims until this year.

A. Equitable Estoppel

143. Shea is estopped by its own fraudulent concealment from asserting the statute of

limitations as an affirmative defense against Plaintiffs’ claims. Throughout the construction and

sales of homes at Trilogy, Shea repeatedly asserted that its homes were built in accordance with

the approved plans and its high quality standards. Continuing throughout its construction at

Trilogy and through to the present, Shea has asserted that it built all homes in accordance with

the building codes and industry standards.

144. Plaintiffs reasonably relied on Shea’s representations.

145. Shea had actual or constructive knowledge that it violated the local building codes

by removing key building components from the permitted plans without approval from the King

County Building Department. Shea’s conduct was deceptive, in that it consciously concealed its

knowing and material omissions.

146. The purposes of the statutes of limitations period are satisfied because Shea

cannot claim prejudice due to a late filing where Plaintiffs filed this lawsuit promptly upon

discovering the facts essential to their claims, described herein, which Shea knowingly

concealed.

B. Equitable Tolling

147. Plaintiffs were unable to obtain vital information bearing on their claims absent

any fault or lack of diligence on their part. As further set forth below, Plaintiffs were not on

inquiry notice of Shea’s wrongdoing and had no duty to initiate any investigation. Plaintiffs did

not have any reason to know of Shea’s knowing omissions of key building components.

148. Plaintiffs were relieved of any duty to investigate because they reasonably and

justifiably relied on Shea’s representations that it constructed their homes in accordance with the

building plans and building code.

149. Plaintiffs did not discover and could not have discovered, despite all due

diligence, that: (1) Shea unlawfully altered permitted plans; (2) Shea knowingly omitted key

building components; and, (3) Shea knew that its homes were damaged or would suffer damage

as a result of these omissions.

150. Plaintiffs’ claims were thus equitably tolled until they discovered the true facts

underlying their claims shortly before filing this Complaint.

VI. CAUSE OF ACTION

VIOLATION OF THE WASHINGTON CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT, WASH. REV. CODE § 19.86

151. Plaintiffs re-allege and incorporate by reference the allegations contained in the

preceding paragraphs.

152. Plaintiffs are persons within the meaning and coverage of the Washington

Consumer Protection Act, RCW 19.86 (the “CPA”).

153. The CPA prohibits “[u]nfair methods of competition and unfair or deceptive acts

or practices in the conduct of commerce ….” RCW 19.86.020.

154. Shea marketed to the public and sold to Plaintiffs and others homes that it built at

Trilogy at Redmond Ridge.

155. Shea unfairly and deceptively omitted to tell home purchasers that in constructing

homes at Trilogy it deviated from: (1) County code requirements; (2) from the recommendations

of its architects and engineers; and (3) from its own submitted and approved plans by: (a) failing

to install necessary and required water and moisture intrusion elements such as flashing,

capillary breaks, vapor barriers, and adequate drainage; and (b) failing to construct driveways

and common concrete fixtures with industry standard and required methods to prevent erosion,

collapse, and other exposure-related failures.

156. Shea’s conduct, as detailed above, constitutes unfair and deceptive acts and

practices in violation of the CPA.

157. Shea’s acts occurred in the conduct of trade or commerce.

158. Shea’s deceptive acts or practices impact the public interest and have the capacity

to deceive a substantial portion of the public. The acts are committed in the course of Shea’s

business; the acts are part of a pattern or generalized course of business; the acts were committed

repeatedly prior to the acts involving Plaintiffs and since; and there is a real and substantial

potential for repetition of Shea’s conduct.

159. Shea’s unfair and deceptive acts and practices have directly and proximately

caused damage to Plaintiffs. But for Shea’s unfair and deceptive acts and practices, Plaintiffs

would not have suffered an injury. The defects directly flowing from Shea’s deceptive acts and

practices for each Plaintiff’s home are set forth in the attached Exhibit 1.

VII. PRAYER FOR RELIEF

160. Plaintiffs pray for relief as follows:

A. For judgment for Plaintiffs on their claims in an amount to be proven at trial, for

compensatory damages caused by Defendants’ unfair or deceptive practices, along with

exemplary damages to each Plaintiff for each violation;
