TrustpilotShocking customer after care
Been in the house almost a year, snags pointed out within months (1 on key day) of completion still be be completed or been told it’s not getting done or has been half arsed (key day snag is hidden behind the fridge) not the point. Leading up the the completion we had less and less updates almost like they didn’t want us to know that our house was going to be delayed or had no work done to it for a while. Wasn’t even told it passed inspection, solicitor and mortgage informed us the expected completion date and the rest of the bill. Handover was atrocious, got told nothing on the day, in fact the person who do it was looking at us to help her with the check list. Took 4/5 months to get an option we paid for to be installed since it was missing, was mentioned in a email after key day just clarifying if it will be installed just before completion. When we got the keys all of the quality stickers were still all over the house and hadn’t/haven’t been fixed (were there on demo and more was noticed during demo and still the same state on completion).Master bedroom is constantly cold, sure the radiator is too small for the room (the room is the size of the garage), some radiators are very small. Despite being told we have 2 years to snag get told we left it too late or we could’ve caused the snag ourselves. Other than the very poor customer care after completion and leading up to it, you can make it a very nice and cosy home. Can tailor it to your personal style as it’s a blank canvas.

TrustpilotLies - From Day One
From the sales manager deceiving us with wrong information, to the constant mis-communication and cover ups with the aftercare team, I can honestly say that we have been lied to from the beginning. Two years on and the garden drainage is just one of the on-going issues. We are being made to feel like we are the greedy ones, when all we want is for them to deliver on their promises. I understand that new builds will always have snags, but this is so much more than that. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!

TrustpilotTerrible, New cars don't come with scratches
Hi, I forgot to mention, the upstairs bathroom doesn't come with a shower. It is only a bath tub. It is half tiled. I had an estimate from a guy that wanted £1,200. to do this. Please read my other review. I'm disgusted. Snag list is a mile long. Whole house needs replastered. Incententives were taken from me. If you buy a Gleeson house, get whatever it is in writing. Shortly after I bought my house at Rhodes Point, carpets and flooring is standard. There is a Kilkenny model across from me, detached, single garage for £14k less than mine, all upgrades included. I didn’t get Jack s£&@

TrustpilotWhat a letdown..
What a letdown! We were super excited to secure a spot in one of Hapton's new builds. We jumped through hoops, sold our home, and just when we were ready to seal the deal, bam! Head office decided to yank all the properties off the market.To make matters worse, the local sales office staff suddenly were rude. It's like they only cared about making a quick sale. Just seemed a bit odd. Honestly, this whole ordeal has left us beyond disappointed. I wouldn't dream of recommending Gleesons to anyone. We've wasted so much precious time, and have now left us in a position we have a sold property with nowhere to go. And let's not even get started on those absurd “fleecehold” policies! Maybe not buying a Gleesons property is a blessing in disguise?Trust me, save yourselves the headache and steer clear of Gleesons. They've shown their true colors, and it's not a pretty picture.I’ve spoken to their head office and there response is that they are all have been sold, and there’s another property but it’ll be 9 months or so before it’ll be ready and asked if I can rent until then … All the properties were pulled so it’s either an investment company have snatched them up, but there’s also a wider assumption that they were pulled from the market to hold them to sell them for a bit more money..

TrustpilotNo such thing as part exchange
What a waste of time and effort. We wanted to part exchange our home for a gleason home, went through 2 estate agents coming to value our home, apparently the company they use only want houses 40 year old or less. They don't want to know about my Edwardian stone built house, they won't be able to sell it quickly.. is that all people are bothered about???? Profit profit profit, they don't care about people's feelings. The house we chose was perfect in every way, ticked all the boxes. Just to be smashed to earth. Part exchange... what a con. Useless, pointless exercise. Very disappointed with gleason. They need to inform people that the buying company dont want older houses.

Nearly two years since I moved in and still not completed customer service are as much use as a chocolate tea pot lies lies and more lies . Really pleased with the house just a shame the drive into the cul de sac and our houses still not done neighbours have rang often and each time customer service manager will give a new date I have rang leaving messages and do not get the curtesy of a call back managers up the line need to get a grip and stop believing lower management who say unicorns are real I would not recommend gleesons to a worst enemy . The stress it causes to customers is always overlooked and covered with more lies Do not buy a gleeson home they have no care once you pay for your home

TrustpilotBuyers be aware!
Just had yet another email from the 'customer service manager', stating we aim to complete our sites within 12 months of the build being finished. In my world 22 months is longer than 12 months! Again Gleeson have said that weather hasn't permitted completion of this site, yet they have managed to proceed with their next development which is only 1/2 a mile away! What an unprofessional attitude. Again, buying a new home should be a highlight for anybody. Gleeson have caused us so much stress over the last 2 years that I would NEVER recommend them to anyone. If we ever moved, I would never even view a Gleeson site again.

TrustpilotStill waiting for the house to be finished 22 months after moving in!
Well, we've now been in our house for 22 months and Gleeson STILL haven't completed the work! The rest of the estate has been completed but we have not had our driveway done. Gleeson promise month after month that it WILL be done, yet here we are still waiting. Worse experience we've ever had. If I had £1 for every apology they offer, I could pay my mortgage off.

TrustpilotUnfinished after nearly 6 months moved in. With 2 year update.
*Updated one week after receiving a reply**2 years on. An update*Almost 6 months into being moved in.The garden has not been leveled by Gleesons. I have had to contact and deal with the landscaping company by myself(which have been very helpful).Gleesons have not contacted me as you may expect from them replying so very quickly this to poor review. Not to mention I've left voice messages and called head office several times over the last month and a half trying to get someone to contact me. The number I was provided as my customer care number is a dud and does not work either.I messaged the project manager who basically fobbed me off saying I needed to deal with the landscaping company... even though they are supposed to have sorted the leveling out of the soil in the garden. They haven't even cut down a drain pipe and fitted a cover. I just have 8 inches of plastic 6" pipe sticking up down the side of the house. The manhole in the garden isn't fitted properly. Underneath the drains are full up of soil which is a concern in itself to their work.**2 year on update. They post very diligently in response to poor reviews. Yet they lie about contacting you. Noone was ever in touch like their social media person on here said they would be. Also. I'm out of my 2 year warranty now and have just discovered. Due to damage in the kitchen ceiling. Their plumbing under the bath has a leak.Do. Not. Buy. Gleesons!

I highly recommend Gleeson Homes development, especially Calverley View Bradford, a very professional team works there, sales and construction departments with whom we have great contact from the very beginning until now. We live in a new beautiful house for almost 2 months, all problems are solved on a regular basis, everyone is very helpful. We have a great life and keep it up. Sharah, Liam Jimmy and others thank you.Emilia Pastuszka

TrustpilotRuined our lives buying a gleeson home
Ruined our lives buying a gleeson home. Everything you can imagine is wrong with the house. We have had time off work due to stress for the shambles of the way our house has been built and the problems we have had. Avoid at all cost, everything is cheap, built quickly by kids & you will not hear from sales the minute they have your deposit.

TrustpilotThe new build saga continues.
The new build saga continues.Happy to confirm, that Gleeson remains being utter rubbish.1)We were promised an outside tap, as we never got the front of house turf we paid for when making the purchase of the house, six months later - still no tap, while being promised that (clearly, in another 6 months) the contractors will contact us to arrange a day for them to come and fit.2) The back door in the kitchen wasn't installed properly, so all the rain water that is supposed to stay outside is pouring inside the house under the brand new flooring, so now we have some beautiful mold growing under the laminate, courtesy of Gleeson, thank you :) The company, obviously, now wants to take zero responsibility and offers zero solution, citing, that 'we need to get someone to fix it ourselves and they will reimburse, but at the same time, they also are not sure if they can do that'.3) I will soon start sending pigeons to their head office, because there is clearly no other way to get in contact with CS, as the calls are useless, because you are told how sorry the are about this whole experience, but offer zero solution and CS are master at ignoring emails. I guess, the only way for them to respond is to start leaving not only snarky reviews on Trustpilot, but snarky comments on their social media again.I'll spell it out for you again: A V O I D

We do not recommend houses from Glessson, they are delivered in an unfinished state, built quickly, not correctly! Lots of basic bugs, all beautifully before picking up the keys. After that, no contact, they promise it ends there, the two-year warranty is just a lie! A lot to write but why - watch out for them!!!!!

TrustpilotVery disappointed with them
Very disappointed with them . Spoke to a lovely lady arranged appointment jobs a goodin, …..Website is very deceiving 1st lady I spoke told me with my deposit they would ad 5% then then options of ,what I read as 6k worth of upgrade. Kitchen, floors, etc was made up . Don’t like new builds but this was to good to miss! Got there..NOTHING, upgrade was not as “defined “ in fancy category offered detached with upgrade of or 5% either or! You get fences and trurf!! How is putting a fence up an upgrade?? Bitterly disappointed with don’t care attitude of the woman I went to see. Attitude stunk wasn’t interested at as the houses are selling so doesn’t really care. Read carefully before you waste your dav viewing them, she even said wasn’t her job to deals

TrustpilotDo not buy from Gleeson Homes
Do not buy from Gleeson Homes, once they have you money they are not interested. Absolutely disgusting customer service during the buying process and aftercare. Just read the reviews.Black mould all over our en-suite and in the other bathroom the bath cannot be used due to the gap in between the bath and tiles! Still not fixed after being in the house nearly a year.The cherry on top for us is we have a detached home but our electric cables are in our neighbours land due to a mix up with the plans! We have asked for these to be moved since moving in but Gleeson dont reply.No other house on the estate has this issue, who would want a detached home with their property in their neighbours land??Our meter should of been fitted on the side we had access to as we knew we had no direct access to the side it is fitted on.Also check your main consumer unit and if it is over 3m from your meter you should have a cut off fuse.We are trying to have a EV charging unit fitted but due to the location of the electric meter is is proving to be a nightmare and will cost a fortune as it wont be classed as a standard installation! I would advise checking everything before you complete on your house, including the location of meters, boundary lines etc etc and if there is anything not correct do not complete till they sort it out as once they have your money they dont want to know.

Buying a new build home should be an easy transition if this is what you want then don’t buy from Gleeson homes!!!After being lied to by the sales representative and now being left with no outside area not fit for purpose we are so stressed it’s ridiculous. We have also had to have a full new kitchen and floor due to installation issues. Then to top this all off there have been a massive amount of snags which are still not rectified to an acceptable standard. I have been told there is no one I can escalate this complaint to, maybe a senior member of the group should come and acknowledge these issues and rectify them!!!! The amount of time taken off work and chasing the issues takes over your life maybe pay a little more and buy from another builder.
