TrustpilotWouldn’t ever buy from linden again
Wouldn’t ever buy from linden again - had a gas explosion/leak within a week of being in the property as someone hasn’t tightened metal work properly. Dangerous communal areas with service charges which are ridiculously high for no service or maintenance done, appalling customer service when you do try to rectify things! Don’t buy!

TrustpilotUnfortunately despite contacting Linden…
Unfortunately despite contacting Linden Homes several weeks ago about an issue where they have allowed Leylandi on property they own to grow out of control less than 1m from my home (which was built by Stamford Homes - who they now own) I STILL AWAIT a response from the relevant department. They have just not bothered.

TrustpilotLinden - inept, immoral & cavalier...
Too many catastrophic trials and tribulations to list. If you want to know just how inept, immoral and cavalier a builder can be, check out the nomorejerrybuilt web pages. Ten years later they are hiding behind Statutory Limitations protection so I have no choice but to foot the £30,000 bill for repairs due to shoddy workmanship.

TrustpilotThe homes they build are NOT SAFE
The homes they build are NOT SAFE. They used highly flammable building materials and have refused to take responsibility. Due to this it's not possible to get a mortgage company to lend for a mortgage on one of their (illegal) properties but even if it was.. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

TrustpilotLinden Homes is only worthy of 1 star
Linden Homes is only worthy of 1 star. We have experienced numerous problems with Linden Homes Heathlands Development, Frimley. They have not finished the housing estate to an acceptable, livable condition. The communal areas have been left in a dangerous state, stinking bathrooms and drain issues, no maintenance and appalling customer services.

TrustpilotTerrible company, Avoid at all costs!
Terrible company, do not waste your money. Negligent practices, long list of issues that are quite serious and absolute lack of care. If you have 3 years to engage in pointless conversations and waste a great deal of money than speak to these guys they are expert cowboys.

TrustpilotUntrustworthy extortionists
Linden negotiated a price and sold my vulnerable elderly Mother a house, took her deposit, signed an agreement and left her to fall in love with the place only to ring her two weeks later to demand a further £20k. They use sharp practice of the worst kind and are completely untrustworthy. Avoid

TrustpilotJust as well the sales team are useless
You can't even get through to the sales teams on the phone to get a viewing. It's hopeless. Glad I came hear and read the reviews before persevering - I'll forget it. Good work Linden, that's a customer gone before you even engaged.
5/5
TrustpilotWe bought a new build
We bought a new build, 5 bedroom detached home. Minimal snags, 18 months on and we are still happy. We'll, replaced the kitchen tap, but otherwise, our reservations about new builds and Linden are gone.Great sturdy materials. Good craftsmanship.

TrustpilotVery bad experience and we didn’t even buy a house.
The communication from Linden/Vistry homes is appalling. We had to cancel a reservation and after reading reviews for aftercare service I think we had a lucky escape.It took 6 weeks to get our deposit back after endless emails and phone calls. Think very carefully before handing any money over!

Trustpilotwoeful
very poor customer service. They appear to keep no records of work that needs doing. Empty promises just to get you off the phone. Very polite though.

TrustpilotStay Away at all costs
Houses are very small and the show houses have small furniture to make the rooms look bigger. The build on these houses is dreadful and cheap, I have no idea why people would buy one. Much better options available in terms of quality builders.
1/5
TrustpilotAbsolutely useless after sales
Absolutely useless after sales. Bought in the south west and just get empty promises to fix any issue. Took 18 months to get the guttering fixed properly. Now been waiting 7 months for another issue. They never call back when they say. Have tried the complaints system and never received a reply. Useless!

TrustpilotLinden Homes. Woodhaven, Chalfont St. Peter
The poor workmanship has caused irreversible structural damage. Adrian Sims (MD Chiltern) has failed to remedy major works and the 2 year builders warranty is worthless. Our dream home is a catastrophe after just months of habitation. The remedial works has triggered Asthma in my daughter as Linden refused alternative accommodation

TrustpilotDon’t buy
If you are looking at the Harper’s Heath estate in Hatfield doncaster. Don’t buy. It’s like living on a council estate. Violent neighbours. Drugs. Etc. We wish we had never moved here. Sadly there are a minority which are ruining the community for the majority.

Please dont wast money we bought a house at barley field and the finishing touches are just a mess it does not look like a brand new home at all. I was better of buying a house someone has lived in and doing it up myself
