I been watching them build the ones in Creswell and they have made so many cock ups and I would not buy a house there as it on a old pit and sum mind shafts. I understand you can't get a mortgage

Stay well away from this developer

Stay well away from this developer. The restrictive covenants are unbelievable. Big standard copy and paste replies to my proposals and no reply to my request for legal grounds for rejecting. I only want to build a garage size extension on the side of my house. It’s my land and would look no different than all the others that Gleeson built with garages (some residents have even converted the garage). The restrictions they place mean you can’t do anything. Stay well clear trust me. On I go to the solicitor, silly waste of money.

Plot 101 Balderstones, 53 Beconsfield Road

Recently completed on our Lovely New Home by Gleeson on the "Balderstones" development and i can honestly say we are more than happy with the service we received. We started our purchase at the beginning of the first COVID lockdown in Feb 2020 and so all was delayed through no fault of Gleeson but throughout we have had constant updates and communication keeping us up to date with the development of the build and any administration work needed to be carried out. Meghan Dunne was who originally sold us the house but had to leave for Maternity reasons but was fantastic in her recommendations and advice leading up to that point. Debbie Howarth who was also dealing with us has left the company but we was very happy with the way she dealt with us and kept us informed all the way to her leaving. On continuation we have had Jamie Hudson taking on her role and we are both very happy at the way he has also kept us in touch with everything going on whether it was any delays on the build due to COVID restrictions or anything else. Good communication is what makes things easier these days and this has all been a very easy process with Gleeson for that reason alone. All in all, We love our new house and will be here for a long time and cant recommend this company enough in keeping their word . A very big thankyou to all the team!.

Do not waste your time or money

Do not waste your time or money, absolute bag of SH!T both house and customer care! Amongst the many issues I’ve had with incompetence from the sales staff losing paperwork and charging us and extra £500 for stuff we didn’t actually want in the house, they’ve failed to come and fix the drain pipe that has broken and now p!ssinf water all over the french door and getting in!! My downstairs toilet hasn’t been flushing properly, so I reported this a month ago, one person has been out, didn’t even look at it and said he’d be back in half hour, that was two weeks ago and gleesons don’t understand how to pick the phone up!! It’s now got to the point where the back of the toilet is leaking and has rotted the wood, the toilet is overflowing, they’ve boxed the back of the toilet in so I cannot get to the isolation valve and is now ruining my flooring. Ooh just to add as well that I’ve been without proper heating for almost two months because they’ve had apprentice electricians on (not a good enough excuse) who clearly haven’t been supervised or trained correctly. They’re literally cowboy builders and are getting millions out of people for houses that aren’t even worth a quarter of the price.Do yourself a favour and buy from ANY other company.

Avoid never buy from Gleeson!!!

Buying a house from Gleeson has been the worst experience of my life!!! Customer service is the worst ever. Problem after problem, 3 gas leaks to be told there’s a fault with washers on the pipes in all the houses but waited till people complained before fixing! 4 water leaks, had 4 holes cut in my hall way and one in the kitchen to find the leak which was a pipe not fitting correctly now my pipes all bang once heating is on to be told this is just them warming up and they won’t fix. Water damaged my stairs carpet and kitchen table which they won’t pay for. Waited 3 month for a new front door and kitchen doors have fallen off to be told they won’t fix due to have been in 18 months.

I completed the purchase of my house in…

I completed the purchase of my house in Dane Park, Hull in August 2020.On the final inspection I picked out a few problems that I could see, which I was told would be complete on completion on the 13th. Most of these works was not done, so we made a snagging list on completion day.The myglesson app was not sent to me, nor did I have any login information.I manually wrote this all up and sent it to the relevant people on email.I have had to chase the company many times to get the work completed and this still has not happened.The patio doors had scratches on the bottom of one door trim, which is pictured below. This was picked up on completion and has still not been rectified. This problem was attempted to be fixed by sanding it down, which I was appalled with and I am still awaiting an outcome. I replaced all the lights in the house to find that in the downstairs toilet that there is a big hole behind the light fitting, the hole is fist sized and I cannot fit a new light in its place due to the size of the hole. Firstly, I was told that they would use spray foam then just fill over it, which I told them no way. Joe from customer care advised me that this would be repaired properly. I am still awaiting this to be repaired to this day. Spoke to site manager on Thursday 26th November and he said there is nothing wrong with the big hole and it was acceptable. My house paintwork was in a poor state, living room ceiling was a mess and needed to be plastered.I got in touch with customer care and they arranged to visit my property.We went through all my issues and Joe documented this up.The painter/decorator came round to check the house and told me that to put everything right that he would need 5 days. He was given 2 days to complete. He started works which improved the house. There are still a few paint jobs that the painter did not get around too. Unfortunately, the mess afterwards was horrendous, I had paint on the back of my TV and on my units which where all brand new. This took me and my partner all night to clean up the house.One of the latest jobs where for the kickboards in the kitchen to be sorted as they are marked. I pictured this and they fixed the mark. The issue is they only fixed the mark that I pictured. The rest of the kickboard had chips in it and paint on it, but this was left and was told the job was complete as they fixed what the picture showed. This is what I was told by the site manager. This was my final straw. I pulled out the kickboards and put them in my front garden. Also, behind the Kickboards was a nice little mess the workers left behind.Finally, I come onto my last, but in my opinion the most important part, the issues with the majority of my door framesThe frames are a complete mess and on closer inspection you can see where the wood has been stuck back on and painted. This to me seems like a big job for all the frames to be fixed, but I would like the job to be completed professionally.Today 19th Dec I became aware that my fan in the kitchen was not connected.After weeks of waiting for things to be done and not having a response for over 3 weeks I am now seeking legal advice and posting to the public my issues so they can see for themselves what type of company Glesson are and how they deal with things.

Love our home in Lune Park

We've just moved into our home in Lune Park Wigan. We bought it during Covid so it took a bit longer to complete due to lockdown but we are extremely happy with the end result. Having built 7 houses ourselves in South Africa we know first hand that it's impossible to get a perfect house without a couple of small issues. Lune Park are blessed with an extremely helpful and knowledgeable Sales Consultant Kath Morris who was my rock during the build plus a phenomenal Site Manager Gavin James who was always helpful and patient with a very impatient me. The site is well run and the houses are finished to really good standard . Your snag list is attended to instantly and the staff are always helpful and friendly. After reading a lot of reviews on Trustpilot we feel very blessed to have chosen Lune Park.

We love our Gleeson Home

Honestly, I have nothing bad to say about our experience with Gleeson or our home we’ve now lived in over 2 years, now 3 years since reserving at slab. We bought on Carrwood Park, other than the roads and paths which are atrocious (but we know these will be replaced when site is finished) and the stone driveways which look scruffy with everyone’s stones flying onto the roads. Our house is lovely and was finished to good standard, we haven’t had to have Gleeson fix anything other than a tap we broke ourselves. The house stays warm all day after being heated in the morning if we keep the doors closed. Gleeson have always acknowledged and corresponded with us within 48 hours of any communication. We love our house, but have outgrown it, I will be sad when we have to sell and leave. Lots of people leaving negative experiences, but I know there are plenty more people with positive stories to tell.

Awful. AVOID!

Awful.. Since moving in anyway.. Before we moved in everything was spot on, constant updates, being invited to look at progress, any questions answered no problem.. 2 years later its been a constant chase to get anything done! Excuse after excuse to not replace manky cupboards where water had leaked due to taps not being fitted properly, the bath wasn’t sealed properly so the bathroom skirting boards & flooring is a mess! Unfortunately we live in a house on one of those awful stone turning circles which is bald & builders throw their mess onto, again not their problem as apparently was all up to standard. The road in the street is a complete mess, all houses have been finished a year at least now & still ongoing issues with drainage & contractors dropping out of doing the job! This (thank god) is just our starter house to get us onto the ladder which we were hoping to stay in for around 5 years.. we’re 2 years in & can’t wait to move! Shocking customer service & they don’t give a loss what mess they cause & leave you to deal with once you’re in the house!AVOID

Gleeson at canal walk

Gleeson at canal walk, Hapton have lied from day one. We have approved for a mortgage and signed up to the NHS priority program and had no information at all. Constantly having to contact them and being told we will phone you back and then no further contact. Excuse after excuse, if you can't provide quality customer care then do something about it. Makes you doubt the quality of the building structure if they can't even manage that. Get organised! The house we have waited on all year was given to someone else when we was supposed to get NHS priority, no contact yet again. If this is the way you treat customers I dread to think what would happen if something was wrong with the house and we needed you to resolve it. 10 year warranty my a...

If I could give gleeson 0 stars I would.My daughter signed for a house at Ransom Court in Nottingham in April 2019.She was told it would be ready to move into in August, then September, then November, you get the idea! She eventually got the keys in February 2020, this was after her and her partner had been living with me for 5 months as they had given up a flat as gleeson had said the house would be ready.Needless to say the house has had loads of snagging issues including faulty guttering which had to be fully taken off and put back on, external doors that won't open or close, holes in plaster board that have just been patched over when being promised they would be full replaced, the toilet wast bubbling up in the bath, the bath moving away from the wall and the sink also coming away from the wall. I could go on, but you would get board of reading. Moving onto lockdown, obviously building had to stop on the development which meant the house next door couldn't have their garage built, the garage boarders onto my daughters garden, wire fencing was left on her garden/her land for 7 months, and she was promised that once they had finished building the garage then the fencing would come down and her garden would be levelled and top soil put on.This has obviously not happened but the new houses gleeson ar still building have had all their gardens sorted. If anyone knows how to escalate a complaint through gleeson where they are actually listened too and actions taken then pleas could you share or just DONT get a house through gleeson

Been in my house a few month now in Ashington. Have to say I have had nothing but a superb experience from the beginning. My purchase was delayed by covid but I wasn't bothered and allowed me to complete late summer which was better with lighter nights. All the staff seem to have changed but they have all been superb, and the aftercare so far has also been surprisingly good. I recieved a welcome hamper at the start and even got a call direct from the director in the main office to ensure I was happy! A few faults but when I complained about them they were dealt with in good time, and they have also never stopped building more houses with covid, which is a good sign. The site is kept as clean as it can for a building site.I don't understand why the reviews are so bad unless it's completely different company to the one I have dealt with.Best of all the same house design which I bought is now on sale £4000 more than what i paid so my house will hopefully keep going up in price!All i can say is well done gleeson and thank you, and please don't be put off by the bad reviews. I can honestly say all the neighbours I have spoken to have the same opinion as me

No such think at customer care support

I’ve lived in my Gleeson cork home now for 8 weeks and believe I have given it enough time to provide an honest review. If I did this prior to moving it would of been 5 stars, I couldn’t fault the sales and customer service I received prior to moving in, I felt cared for and supported every step of the way and literally from moving in, ditched. The issues I’ve faced over the last week have been far from small snags, I’ve had blocked toilets, a bath which was left with water in for two days before I kicked off such a stink on social media that it was then fixed. My kitchen still isn’t finished, my driveway and path isn’t completed, and I’ve been left with a hole in my living room wall for the last month. I have lumps of concrete under my carpets... The worst part is the lack of care and support, you’re either ignored or really have to shout and complain before you get a response where Gleeson just blame someone else. I hate confrontation but felt like I’ve been pushed into no other option, my new home experience has been totally ruined and i now feel unhappy and trapped in an unfinished home. My neighbours moved in at the same time as me and we’ve all had a similar experience and not one of us have had a positive experience. I’m just grateful I have lovely neighbours because there really isn’t much else positive to say.You life and learn, you get what you pay for.

AVOID GLEESON

Had our demo a week before receiving the keys for our new house, found a few snags and touch ups to be done which gleeson had a week to get right before we received the keys a week later.After receiving the keys a week later we found there was snags that hadnt been done and the cleaners had not been to tidy the mess. I explained we was having carpet put down the next day at 10am so lumps of cement would need scraping off the kitchen floor (one of the snags on demo) otherwise we would be able to feel it through cushion floor and the house still needs cleaning.I was told to leave a key and the cleaners would be there at 8am to clean and the floor would be scraped. I went to the house the next day at 10am to find nothing had been done. NOT HAPPYThe road to the house is clearly not finished and raised up way too much which has caused damage to both of our cars due to the front bumpers scraping on a slope in the road, We reported this and the response we got was "just be careful for now" I think this is disgusting and they shouldnt be moving people in if the road is not suitable for cars to be driving on. There are drains and man holes raised excessively due to the roads not been finished which is a major tripping hazard,Its been a week since receiving the keys and still the road and some snags from the demo have not been done (2 weeks after demo) and now i have to pay for both of the cars bodywork to be done👍🏻Customer care at gleeson is a joke

Very happy

We cannot fault Gleeson! They have been fantastic with us! We have a 4 bed house on Canal Walk Development. The house is absolutely lovely. The sales/support team have remained great and consistent throughout. The building team are also great. There were only a a couple of snags and they were quickly resolved. A couple more small things have popped up, but they’ve been straight round to sort them. We are very happy in our new home; it’s perfect for our little family to grow up in, with an amazing sized garden for a new build and we only have good things to say about our house and the whole Gleeson team! So thank you!

Steer clear of Gleeson and their pretend freehold properties

Bought a Gleeson home and a neighbour on the same estate sought and was granted permission for a garage conversion. We requested the same permission for the exact same conversion in the exact same house on the same estate and have been declined. Told it’s due to restrictive covenants. Treat customers unfairly and poorly - not consistent with enforcing the covenants

Nice Home with a Great Price

I have a new Gleeson Home at MacDonald Park. I'm extremely happy with the new home. From the day 1 when I visited the showroom, then choose my dream house, till now completion and get the keys, those sales staff are very helpful and responsible. I was kept inform the construction stages of my property, even during the lock down period.On the day of final checking, I had prepared some A4 paper to write down the defects, but at last, I didn't need to use it. Only 2 minor defects were found. The site manager fixed them all on the following days.The site manager is experience with patient to explain everything of my house in details. The sales lady Madam Sue is good, friendly and helpful.Perhaps, you may read many different reviews saying how bad Gleeson was. But you must browse the instagram, then you knows there are lots of happy faces whom with a Gleeson home. At least, you should visit the site and talk to those home owners, you know the facts. Finally, I must say thank you to Gleeson Home. They build the affordable nice new homes so that I can be one of the home owner.

Shockingly Bad Customer Service - Avoid

I bought a house on the Hilltop Park development and although there were small problems the purchase went quite smoothly. The problems started when we had completed and moved in! Defects reported were never resolved and didn’t even have a response or follow up, formally complained but again with no outcome at all! 8 weeks after completing our purchase the house still isn’t right. The contractors on the site treat our land like a building site parking construction equipment on my drive!Shockingly bad customer service with non existent follow ups. Use another developer and avoid Gleeson!
