Whittingham Fold

I bought a property on the Whittingham Fold site a few months ago and love the house. Tracy is a wonderful asset to the company, she has helped so much with every step of the journey and without her we would not have bought this house. She took away the stress of moving, making it achievable for us to do so. She is very efficient at her job, professional but also so friendly and easy to talk to.The house itself is great, there were very few snags and the ones that were found were dealt with extremely quickly by Colin the site manager. He also went above and beyond to ensure the house was made perfect for us. We are very grateful for both Tracy and Colin.

Bought a house in Redwood Boulevard in…

Bought a house in Redwood Boulevard in Blackpool. The finish of the house is poor. Doors warped and catches that look like a 5 year old has had a go. Parts missing in the kitchen and missing tiling in the bathroom. Our canopy over our front door doesn't fit the wall correctly and our front door leaks water. Rear patio doors don't lock and are insecure. I have complained and brought to the attention all these issues with site and customer services. Nothing, no dates to rectify any of this. What could have been a lovely house has been let down by what I can only describe as cowboy trade people. A blind person could fit some of the fittings better than Elan have done. I'm now coming to the conclusion that they will never rectify these issues and we will end up in the small claims court or county court to try resolve this. That's after I finish hitting my head off my unfinished brick wall.

Unhappy customer

Moved into our property 15 months ago in Somerset and the experience with Elan customer services has been far from ideal. We have insulation missing in the walls and ceiling in one part of the house. They've provided various dates when the work was to be undertaken and failed to turn up on each occasion. No apologies and no date has been forthcoming.

Elan Homes - Dreadful

Elan Homes has got to be one of the worst companies I’ve ever experienced. Purchased a house in Somerset, beset with problem after problem from day one, including leaks, faulty heating and even no insulation in one part of the property. Have been waiting for replacement doors for over six months because of poor quality and no response to repeated emails. Porch has been stuck together with mastic and falling down. Neighbours also experiencing major issues including the same missing insulation.

Cowboy Builders - Would advise to stay well away!

To summarise, it’s builders like Elan that give other builders a bad reputation. Moved into our property in July last year and it’s been a full-time job ever since to even get a response on the problems/snags.We still don’t have a functioning front door seven months in (they’re also aware that this is a security issue as we have a newborn baby), they haven’t touched the sides of our snags that we issued the first week of moving in, we had the wrong kitchen layout built, damaged flooring, a full garden of weeds on arrival, next doors down pipes into our garden (not stipulated on any drawings), the windows incomplete and have trickle vents that allow air in/out of the property, our boundary has been compromised with the fencing layout and the overall finish and quality is well below industry standard, never mind a company that claims to provide a premium product. The customer care team have been none-existent so I’d appreciate it if they didn’t respond to this review with a generic response to save face. We’ve tried this approach already to no avail! I could go on further as the list is endless, I would give 0 stars if I was able to. I’m also not the only one on the development to encounter these problems.

Roof damage

I bought a new build property from Elan this year and unfortunately in the recent windy weather, two ridge tiles were blown off the roof leaving a hole. Being ridge tiles, these should be fixed in place with cement and so shouldn't simply get blown off, particularly being so new. Elan are refusing to take responsibility and trying to force me to claim on my home insurance. This has been such a shame and disappointment to what have thusfar been very nice homes.

Scott · 2 January 2024 · Elan Homes Tamworth

Agent replied · 10 June 2024

Scott,Thank you for your comments. Here at Elan Homes we never wish to disappoint our customers and always strive to deliver a high standard of customer care.We would respectfully point out there were reports of Storm Gerrit inflicting damage to many properties across the Tameside area but we will endeavour to ensure we check the roofs in question to establish if you will be required to make a claim via your Insurance Company for Storm damage or if the damage is deemed a defect covered by your warranty.Should any of the roofing works be a defect, these will be corrected as per the terms of your warranty.

Unfortunately this company have managed…

Unfortunately this company have managed to spoil what was a good experience or hidden crap I should say. Cheap and shoddy finishing has been discover around brick work, dry valleys and roof tiles.I have kindly askedthey fix this to be dismissed to the NHBC. It’s taken a year to sort the roads and now it’s apparent 70% of the houses are having the same issues.Do not buy from these clowns - cut corners, cheap materials and crap work force. We even witnessed a fight between the site manager and some suby being laid off. Go to Barrat that says something.

Excellent service

We (myself, my wife & our son) had a house viewing appointment with Shirley at Greenside View. She's very warmly, cheerful and her customer service was per excellent, far more than our expectations and it was so sad that we could not find the type of a house that we wanted. However, Shirley still go ahead and refereed us to their other site in Swinton. Thanks to Shirley as she made our day worthwhile!

Ride roughshod over local residents; you could be next.

My issues with Elan are ongoing, not as a buyer but as an existing resident whose garden backs on to their building site. I strongly suggest that you make sure that there are no plots of land without buildings on before buying a property. I’m sure that Elan is no worse than any other property developer but I’m having to write this review because it’s the only way that they will respond (maybe) even if their response is to come up with more lies. Once you’ve bought your house, you will not be able to contact Elan by phone. The recorded message will tell you to email and then you’ll get an automated reply saying that they’ll reply within five working days. They never reply to my emails. I emailed the site manager and invited him to visit to see how things feel from my side but he just forwarded it to ‘customer services’, a misnomer if ever there was one, and I got the usual response. I hope Elan will respond to this because they certainly didn’t ‘reach out’ or discuss things further’ with me last time. I want to propose a way forward but I can’t if they won’t engage. I’m about to send another photo of the portaloo and building materials that should not be standing above my fence to planning enforcement. Over to you Elan.
