TrustpilotCalderwood Plot 36
Pursued a specific house and plot at Calderwood site from 5 months prior to release date. Due to concerns regarding completeness of information being provided to us we proceeded to record correspondence. Despite this the house was given away pre-release on an Early Bird Basis 4 months after our initial interest. Despite asking the sales executive specifically about opportunities to reserve pre-release we were repeatedly told this was not possible and then subsequently told (once it been passed to others) by the same person it was an option 4 months earlier and thus completely obstructing our ability to reserve this plot.We raised the issue and evidenced our accusation with emails yet the root cause of our complaint has been completely ignored. RH repeatedly refer to the training and measures in place to prevent this type of thing happening meaning that it didn't happen but we've the emails to prove that it did.Whilst ultimately this issue has arisen as a consequence of the actions of an individual employee, the reaction of the senior team has been appalling and zero responsibility. No responsibility has been taken for a situation entirely of their teams creating and with significant financial consequences to a prospective customer (i.e. a further £40-50k to buy the next plot of the same house type), and begs the question why is it ok to treat customers in this way?

Unbelievably poor build quality and finish for a so called professional firm. 2 years down the line still waiting for work to be completed as the house crumbles around us!! This will trigger the usual generic contact us reply but guess what I have been trying for 2 years to contact you if you have money do not buy a property from this cowboy builder it will ruin your health and your life!! Once they take your money they move on the customer service is an absolute joke!!

TrustpilotProfit before people
Robertson homes have distanced themselves from Robertson construction due to an ongoing crisis in Bishopton. However they make it clear on their own website they are the same (Robertson group brochure)Robertson are currently building a largeNumber of houses in Dargavel village, have the resources, manpower and materials to throw up properties. Fast turn around, quicker revenue.A few hundred yards away they are building a school for the families they are taking money from. Amazingly they do not have the resources, manpower or materials for this project. They are moving families into an area where the children are being crammed into temporary accommodation within another school as they choose to deploy resources to home building. Unethical, greedy and unacceptable.

TrustpilotWynyard
Reserved a Wynyard house many many months ago in 2020. We chose the house based on when it would be ready to move as we wished to use help to buy (HTB) scheme which was soon coming to an end.Issue 1 - Builder running short of windows - so couldn't get a CML certificate in time - so we were informed we would now not be able to use the HTB scheme we initially wished to use saddling us with bigger mortgage. Importantly Robertson advised they'd still complete the house to original deadline though. We had to obtain another Mortgage as a result.Issue 2 - Soon after Robertson now informed us their builder was in fact running behind and it'd now be a month later than planned so they could finish properly, not rush and do a proper job. House readiness date moved back 4wks.Issue 3 - Just days before the rescheduled readiness date Robertson rang to inform us someone had forgotten to paint the house in the colour we'd chosen. Another 2-4wks delay to paint the right colour and address some snagging.Issue 4 - via their Robertson informed us via their solicitor they'll be pulling incentives previously agreed unless we exchanged ASAP (quoting that we were made aware they have the right to do so as it's in our customer journey pack and on our reservation paperwork) - granted it is but to us seemed very aggressive tactic from house builder.Sale fell through.Genuinely in this person's view the house builder does not meet deadlines agreed and now devastated we're forced to look elsewhere for our dream house.Ps do read all the reviews below from other Wynyard purchasers / other developments.Pps after reading some of the other house purchasers issues below on this page and in social media we also agreed with Robertson’s for our own appointed Quantity Surveyor to go in to look round the house and write a report before we considered exchanging. Perhaps something you might want to do also.

Fantastic opening day for the show home at Lambton Park. Beautiful house, gorgeously designed. Robertson's so welcoming with canapes and drinks in the garden, face painters and lion hunt round the house for my kids. Would definitely buy a house here, 5 stars!

TrustpilotDo not use Robertson Homes
Do not use Robertson Homes. Absolute disgrace. Cannot be trusted. Failure to complete work on time. Dishonest. Constant lies. No communication. No commitment. Work behind schedule. Don’t support the community. Put Profit before anything else. I cannot stress this enough - Do not use Robertson Homes.

I think a one star is being generous. my disabled sister has been plagued by faults in her build at Winchburgh.The customer care team simply don't care.Shocking service and would never recommend this house builder. If they spent less on fancy brochures and more on getting their act together that would be a start.

Robertsons have failed to deliver, Dargavel primary should have been ready by Aug, 2 weeks before school finishes we hear it’s going to be delayed until at least October. It’s an absolute shambles. Our kids have been through enough setbacks in the last year.
