I’ve had such a brilliant experience with the Laughton Gate development whilst looking for my first home. The site itself is lovely, well designed, welcoming, and clearly built with care.

Trustpilot18 month review; incentives to 'save' money, only to spend more than you saved fixing your new home upon completion
Harron Homes offer first class sales pitches and employees who are oustanding at this element of their respective jobs. Unfortunately, post sale, the customer care experience is abysmal and almost non-existent. While they are generally happy to rectify poor work, craftsmanship or defects to the outside (front facing, where prosective buyers walk) of the property, the internal finishings are almost laughable. To the cynics, obviously, no house is ever perfect, however Harron seem to take excessive pride in their sales teams and stop everything else once you've completed your transaction. I, alongside several of my neighbours who all moved in at December 2022 have had 18 months of poor quality houses, doors put on backwards (they're also the cheapest MDF you can find, most don't fit the door frames), i've had 4 replacement front and rear doors, walls have had to be replastered, a garden which (remains) more akin to a swamp when wet, builders there to 'rectify' work creating more issues (and then wilfully ignoring them - like lights popping out of the ceiling, cracks, splits or dinks in your walls as if they never happened) requiring you to spend yet more time trying to get them to call out which is also a chore in itself. The number to call is consistently busy (this should give some indicators to the amount of issues they have) and emails routinely go weeks unanswered, even when only requesting updates or confirmation of dates for works to be completed. If you are one of the lucky few who happen to get a 'complete' house, you will have a house for life, however so many (read similar reviews from their sites in the surrounding areas, and speak with other estate agents/new build sales offices) seem to operate on a sell first fix later policy - several of us having only lived her for under 2 years are now looking at selling and moving elsewhere as we have all but given up. 3 site managers and deputies in 18 months (should speak volumes), a prioritisation of cost over quality homes (the last dept. manager resigned as they consistently refused to the do work properly due to cost), internal reports are hidden and likely incomplete, they grant no access to information about the home you are buying I could go on. I had in excess of some 100-150 snags, and while non of these were structurally related, the finishing touches, quality of material, craftsmanship and care taken in building these, coupled by awful customer service is awful. Do not make the same mistake I have in buying with this company, they talk a good talk but haven't walked in their life. I will sell and move elsewhere, i'd strongly advise you to do so too. They ask for 5 star reviews as soon as you've moved in - look throughout for the updated reviews and you will quickly find a similar story of headaches and problems.

GoogleAbsolutely shocking, would not recommend this site to our worst enemy. We moved in 2024 still having issues. We’ve got damp, leaking back door, non compliant fire door with 2 babies in the house. Windows that don’t shut, breezes coming through the house. Can’t get anyone to actually sort them just getting fobbed off by site managers, contractors and customer services. Been in the property 17 months, tell me if this looks like the property is less than 2 years old. Oh also having to have our water cylinder changed next week because they’ve stuck the wrong one in 👍🏼 run if you are thinking about buying here. Sales office lie and deceive on options too, paid to have an upgraded shower, stuck different one in and didn’t bother to tell us, what they stuck in was £500 less than what we paid. Horror Homes not Harron Homes.

TrustpilotThe journey to a new home !!
Moving house is a challenge for us all , not something we experience very often in our lifetime , but I now wish we had bought a new home years ago. Harron homes have walked us through the whole experience always there when we needed something answering , helpful at every stage . Now we have moved to our new house we can finally call it HOME , please don’t think there won’t be a few issues , there will be!! Don’t think there won’t be a few snagging jobs that need finishing !! There will be, but trust the team at Laughton gate Dinnington and they do everything to help.Thank you to the whole team (plot 55 ) is fab 👍🙏

We've exchanged contracts now at the Heritage Green development in Chesterfield. Using their part exchange scheme has been quite intense with a lot of activity at the early stages but since then, it's been great. Jeanett has been really helpful throughout, and is keeping us updated with our build progress. I'll update as we finally move into our new home.

TrustpilotHarron Homes Wyndthorpe Chase...Avoid Them.
**Terrible Experience at Harron Homes Wyndthorpe Chase**I regret purchasing a home at Wyndthorpe Chase by Harron Homes. The quality is shockingly poor. Our back garden turns into a swamp every time it rains, making it impossible for my daughter to play outside. The landings and bedrooms are creaking constantly, which is both annoying and worrying. We've noticed cracks everywhere, and to top it all off, the roof in the master bedroom is leaking.Despite reaching out to their customer care multiple times, there's been a complete lack of communication. The site manager visited twice, promising to send a joiner to fix the issues, but no one ever showed up. This has been an utterly frustrating and disappointing experience. I would not recommend Harron Homes to anyone.

TrustpilotVery happy with our new house
Very happy with our new house, builders, site managers and sales staff. We noticed some minor faults and when we moved in and notified the team. Some were easily sorted and others took some organising. Even though we have only been in several weeks, we expected small delays. Generally we are very pleased with the company who went out of there way to make our move in as smooth as possible.

TrustpilotBonus waterfall feature
Moved into our lovely new house in March this year on the Far Grange Meadow Site, Selby. For no extra cost the builders have even left a waterfall in the living room. A problem that they knew about prior to us moving in. Instead of fixing the leak they just painted over the water damage to make us think it was sorted. We have complained about this for months and we are still left with water leaking through the roof three months later. To top it off the site manager is now ignoring me. Please could someone from head office contact me to resolve this issue before it causes more damage
