Home Safety

The safety of you and your family as well as our trades and staff is very important to us. The ultimate goal is to have everyone go home at the end of the day safe and well. That is why we have implemented many safety policies and procedures that ensure the jobsite is a safe work environment for our trades and a safe place for you to visit your new home while it’s under construction.

Safety Care Kit

As a Shane Homes customer you will also receive a safety care kit for your new home. This kit contains a fire extinguisher and first aid kit providing the many items necessary in case of an accident or emergency.

Full Time Safety Supervisor

We have a full-time safety supervisor on staff to help ensure your safety and the safety of the trades-people working on your new home. We also have our C.O.R.

Construction Safety Training Program

Our field staff have first aid training, carry first aid kits in their vehicles and have completed the Construction Safety Training System Program. Our trades are also supplied with a jobsite safety video, created by Shane Homes, outlining safe work practices. We have set the above procedures in place to help ensure the safety of our customers, trades and everyone around them.

Personal Protective Equipment

Each of our showhomes is stocked with personal protective equipment and hard hats. As an added safety precaution our customers are required to sign into the showhome to receive and use this equipment before visiting their home under construction.

List for Free Program

The Shane Homes List For Free Program offers buyers of a new Shane Home savings by reducing the commissions on the sale of their existing home.

The average commission structure to sell a home is 7% on the first $100,000, 3% on the remaining balance of the sale of the existing home, plus GST on the commission. The total commission owed by the seller to the realtor(s) is 50% to the Buying Representative and 50% to the Listing Representative.

As part of the List for Free Program, Shane Homes will pay the Listing Representative the portion owed to them by the seller. This equates to savings of up to 50% on the commission!

List for Free Program Terms & Conditions:

The customer must enter into an unconditional or conditional agreement with Shane Homes to purchase a new home.
- Entering into an unconditional agreement will guarantee the price of the new home and lot.
- Entering into a conditional agreement will guarantee the price of the new home for 90 days. The lot will also be guaranteed for 60 days with a first right of refusal, upon which the customer must enter into an unconditional agreement with Shane Homes.
The customer must use Shane Homes’ designated CREB realtor as the exclusive Listing Representative for the sale of the existing home.
The customer may list their existing home with Shane Homes’ designated CREB realtor prior to purchasing a new home with Shane Homes. The Buying and Listing Representative’s commission will be initially charged to the customer; however, Shane Homes will pay the Shane Homes designated CREB realtor’s commission when the customer enters into an unconditional purchase.
The customer is responsible for the Buying and Listing Representative’s commission if the customer did not enter into a purchase agreement with Shane Homes prior to the sale of the existing home.
List for Free offer must be presented to the Area Manager prior to the offer to purchase and signing of addendum.
