TrustpilotExcellent service and professionalism
I would like to provide positive feedback for Andy Jones following his recent visit to our property. We had a number of minor snagging issues, and Andy took the time to thoroughly inspect and document each one. He resolved several of the issues during the visit itself, which was greatly appreciated.

TrustpilotDon’t believe the other reviews
Don’t believe the other reviews. Avant Homes are a cowboy outfit. Since we purchased our home in 2021 (Hawfinch Place) we have made several improvements to our home and have utilised the services of a local odd-job tradesmen to implement them. He has frequently been left speechless at the ineptitude and stupidity of the original builders. They will leave no corner uncut.

TrustpilotAvoid avoid avoid
There is no doubt that avant build homes which have a lovely interior with many more things included as standard than other builders, to a high specification. However, this simply just means more problems and more poor service. We bought our home in 2019 and had a snag list in excess of 400 individual items, some minor which are to be expected and some pretty major which are still not completely resolved. Some issues are fixed quickly, others involve an argument. When buying a new build I expected to have some snags, however I expected them to be fixed and I expected the house to look like a brand new house and when snagging we took the view of what we would see as acceptable should we have had the work done in our home by a tradesman. Unfortunately Avant Homes are all about money and blame. Nothing is their fault and they want to pass the cost of anything to anyone else where possible. Sad thing is, if our house had been and signed off correctly to begin with they could have saved themselves a fortune in coming back out to do work. There is a serious attitude problem with a lot of the management and staff within the regional head office. I'm absolutely disgusted by the way I have been spoke to by several senior people at Avant Homes. It's quite simply gas lighting and in my opinion this shouldn't be allowed. The psychological games which they play should not be legal, and if gas lighting was a criminal offence we would have pressed charges against Avant countless times. Avoid avoid avoid. Their only saving Grace is a couple of nice site managers and girls in customer service. I would not go anywhere near avant homes again. Vile company.

TrustpilotRude, haughty estate agent
First meeting at Skelton went well. Sales agent was lovely but did not have any 2 bedroom houses to show us. Later called me and we spoke and said there was availability on their Sherburn in Elmet so booked it in. Unfortunately had some issues day of and anticipated we would miss our appointment so called the number we were given and told the lady we would be over 20 minutes late. She said it was okay to still attend and she would pop over an email to the Sherburn site. Arrived there and of course did not expect to have an appointment but we wanted to see the home and had been told it would be fine regardless. Sales lady at the site was so pompous, speaking to us like we were children. Even though we apologised, she kept trying to usher us out saying she had no space for us (again we weren't expecting her to abandon her current appointment, we just wanted to see the house we had confirmed we could see and driven over 40 minutes to see) until I said her colleague on the phone had said the house was available to view. Funny she said she had had no correspondence but yielded once we let her know that. That's when she relented a bit and coldly let us through, treating us with so much disdain. The house was fine, but difficult to truly appreciate when you've just had a sour experience. Hopefully she has more grace for future clients

My wife and I have had several conversations and met with Lewis Simms at Avant Homes, Ambretone Park development in Green Hammerton. Lewis has been approachable, professional and polite in his dealings with us. He is currently going that extra mile to help us put together a package to assist us in purchasing a new home. There has been no pushy selling and a lot of transparency on how Avant Homes like to work and deal reasonably with their customers. We haven't yet finalised our purchase, but I have every confidence that Lewis will do everything possible to make this happen.

GoogleWhere is the duty of care to their buyers? I suffered a horrible fall and now have a life changing injury to my right arm. After two operations I have been told that there will never be any improvement to movement, strength or ongoing pain. Avant left a drop to the side of my house with no railings to prevent a fall. Avant's response was that they are unwilling to take any responsibility as the drop is 3cm within regulations. I couldn't work for almost 7 months, no income, weekly physio bills and I've lost a lot of my independence. Thanks Avant, for the sake of spending a few extra £'s on a small fence to prevent an accident. Worse still on informing your customer services they couldn't even be bothered to spell my name correctly, they simply dismissed my complaint. I would never recommend this company following such a lack of due care and attention.
