Customer service

We are not in our home yet probably not until late December- early February. Fraz and Rossana in the Aurs Meadows site have been and continues to be so very helpful and nothing is to much bother Every question or concern we have had has been dealt with professionally and explained fully.

Cowboy Builders

Cala say that they care about their customers, what a load of rubbish that is. I have to use a mobility scooter to get around & because there are no facilities for charging mobility scooters the sales team were all for me getting rid of my scooter, they did not seem to care that by getting rid of my scooter would take away my independence making me virtually housebound.

Extremely helpful and caring Sales Team

First started looking for a place in February 2026, found a lovely detached we liked. Spoke to the sales team who consisted of Shyla, Emily & Michelle - all 3 in their own right were more than happy to accommodate extra viewings when it worked for us.

From Confidence to Frustration: A CALA Experience - High Expectations Set, Low Standards Delivered

Our experience with CALA can be summarised as a severe contrast between an impressive, highly engaging sales process and a deeply disappointing post-sale reality.

A great buying and owning experience

From start to finish, the Cala team have been helpful and the buying and owning experience has largely been excellent. The most important thing for me is that they respond, are prepared to escalate matters if they are not being addressed and get the job done. Sheree has been especially helpful, and has been pivotal in arranging the post handover snags to be addressed. The home itself is beautiful!. Thank you. Bhavesh

Cala homes' painter, George Fisher

Cala homes' painter, George Fisher is truly a professional. We had some wall surface flaking issue and he responded promptly. 3 layers of coating to each of damaged areas and 2 layers of painting after sanding. The job was well organised, clean and tidy, perhaps the neatest work I have ever seen. Well done! George.

Cala do not address customer’s concerns

Further to my recent review and Cala’s response yesterday. Cala replied about the replacement door. However, my review was not about the door. It was concerning Cala’s failure to address the points I raised in my formal complaint and their inability to follow their own complaints procedure. This is a recurrent feature of my correspondence with Customer Care over the past two years. They ignore the customers main complaint and do not answer the points raised in emails. Another example of Cala Customer Care’s total disregard for their customers.
