We recently brought a house on the Victoria Mills Anwyl development and absolutely love it!I can’t praise Gyllian and Andy highly enough, They made the whole process effortless and easy. Gyllian (sales) was very helpful and informative throughout and Andy (site Manager) sorted any issue we have with the house quickly and to a very high standard. The Whole team have been amazing and we are really pleased with our new home.
Hi Amy, thank you for leaving this review about our Victoria Mills development, specifically Gyllian and Andy. it was great to read how happy you are with your new home, thanks again.

Really unhelpful and really difficult
We bought our house from anwyl over a year ago, we were delayed again and again and messed about for 3 months after our initial completion date for various different reasons and moved in with 150 snags. We have had nothing but issues from anwyl, from the customer service team sending us a link to the wrong garden flags when we were extending our patio (resulting in a £50 fee to return them that anwyl refused to compensate us for) to all our snags being marked completed even though there was still over 80 left to be resolved. Over a year on and we’re still waiting for multiple snags to be completed. It takes customer service over two weeks to reply to any emails and the response is generally a complete refusal to do anything helpful what so ever. You have to write a letter to make a formal complaint which is then replied to with a condescending and once again completely unhelpful reply via email from customer service (after a few weeks). Doors for integrated kitchen appliances were supplied with no holes drilled in, I asked if someone from site could pop in and drill the holes in the doors in order for us to fit them and the email reply was “we are unable to assist you with this, we are too busy and even if we weren’t, that’s not under warranty”. Considering the amount of money spent on the house we bought from them you’d have thought they might be slightly more accommodating to simple requests like that however it seems after you complete on the house and have your 4 weeks call they completely wash their hands of you and couldn’t care less if you have any issues. When they sell you the house they make out like you can raise any issues with customer service and you’ll always be treated as a customer however in our experience we have been treated as an inconvenience whenever we have tried to contact customer service about anything subsequent to our completion. This is not a reflection on the trades people working on the site as they have been nothing but helpful, friendly and gone out of their way to assist us when we have asked. This is specifically problems with anwyl’s processes and policies and the way you are treated post completion. Personally the frustrations regarding trying to get any help whatsoever has really soured the experience of buying our home. Something that should have been exciting and fun ended up being frustrating, difficult, inconvenient, stressful and upsetting
Hi Anna, we were really sorry to read this review, the Customer Service team respond to non-emergencies within 5 working days. There can be times where this takes longer due to unexpected absence or extreme weather but we will always reply as quickly as we can. Whenever we advise on the patio slabs we always provide the design but also suggest checking the design is correct before placing an order, as we use two different designs on our developments. All kitchens are inspected and accepted by the homeowner on the day of legal completion so, if replacement doors are provided as a goodwill gesture, they do not come pre-drilled we're sorry. If there is anything else that Customer Services can assist with, our team would be happy to help, you can use our webform on our website or call 03300 244955.

Great customer service
Great work carried out by Chris Appleton today on two long outstanding snagging issues on a new build on the Fairways in Handforth. Plastering and repainting hole left in en-suit and repainting front door. Very friendly technician who did a great job and cleaned up afterwards. Such a shame more attention isn’t undertaken at inspections on completion by site as taken 8 months to resolve.
Thanks Sally! Sorry to hear that these issues took so long to get sorted but glad to hear they finally are.

Thank you Anwyl
Hi Charlotte, thank you for this review about our team at The Oaks. It was great to read how both Ian's have been really helpful! Thank you.

Tiny jobs
Tiny jobsThe toilet seat had become loose in my en-suite bathroom. This is the third toilet I have had an issue with and the same problem. Only issue was that the pins are hard to get at and you require a very small Allender key to fix!Today I saw an Anwyl van in my street and approached the technician.(Lee Ashworth). The guy was extremely helpful and although he was at a different scheduled job he said he would take a quick look as it could be easily resolved. He said he would call after his lunch. He promptly came and the job was done in a matter of minutes. Thank you so much for your response and with no hesitation in helping me.
Hi Susan, thank you for this review and we're glad Lee was able to sort this for you. Please do make sure you call Customer Services in the future (03300 244955) to protect you & your warranty. We need to make sure we have everything logged on your house record - just incase you have the same problem again (hopefully not!).

Excellent work by Lee Reynolds and Paul Higham
My experience is with Lee Reynolds and Paul Higham, they are excellent Customer Service Technicians. They came today to replace the back door and the panelling around it and they were so thorough and precise with their work that the finish was absolutely exceptional. Both gentlemen were friendly, bubbly and very helpful and their work ethic was second to none, they barely stopped for a break, and it’s been one of the hottest days today!Thank you to both of them! 😊
Hi Zara, thank you for your review about 2 of our Customer Service Technicians, all our team work hard so it's lovely when they receive these positive comments.

Anwyl won't fix issues
We moved into our property in July 2021, and while the builders were still onsite they fixed some issues we had with roof tiles. As the builders were onsite, this job wasn't logged officially with Anwyl. Fast forward to March 2024 and we are now outside the 2 year warranty and as the job wasn't originally logged, Anwyl are refusing to fix the roof tile issues that has now reoccurred. Abbeyfields.
Hi, we were sorry to read your review and thank you for providing us with some more information. We are sorry but if the issue wasn't reported to Anwyl Homes during your developer warranty period, you are able to report the issue to the NHBC but it is not something that Anwyl Homes can attend to, we are sorry but we have to be consistent with the application of the two year developer warranty period with all our homeowners.

Great service from the team at Crossfields
All we can say is that Anwyl homes and their team at Crossfields in Catterall have been amazing . Debbie in the office and Ian the site manager really know how to look after customers.From the first time we walked into the sales office Debbie has looked after us and kept us up-to date with progress on our house, she also answered any questions we asked as promptly as she could.Once we moved in it was site manager Ian’s turn to show us how well the team at Anwyl look after their customers. A few very minor snags when we moved in were sorted very quickly and Ian called round a few times during our first month to check everything was ok.Anwyl homes should be very proud of the team at Crossfields in Catterall and the house that was handed over to us was finished to an amazing standard.
Hi Ian, thank you for this review, it was great to read what a high quality home you have received and also how our Cross Fields team have looked after you from the very start. Thank you.

Lee Ashworth 👍 went above and beyond
Lee Ashworth visited our property to work on our front door (we’ve been in 8 months). He identified issues with the door we hadn’t yet noted and was honest, hardworking and reliable. We need a new door, which Lee has taken care of with customer care - we’d very much like him to come back and fit the new door for us when it arrives!We are still waiting on a number of outstanding snags to be resolved though; extractor fan in the kitchen is letting in debris from outside and rattling, wonky tree planted in front lawn, our drive was left covered in cement when the fence was installed on our neighbouring property - this was raised in March and I’m still waiting.There are snags I haven’t even had the energy to raise yet: The interior woodwork was finished to a very poor standard when we moved in so this is next on my list to resolve.Overall, the standard of my property wasn’t up to scratch when we completed - some things get resolved but it’s an absolute slog.If you get an Anwyl technician like Lee to come out though - they’re great.
Hi Kirsty, thank you for your review about Lee but so sorry to read that you are still waiting for some jobs to be done. Please don't hesitate to get in touch with Customer Services on 03300 244955 or via our webform on our website. Whilst we can't promise we can fix everything straightaway, we will certainly try our best.
