Awful

Awful, awful builders with dreadful customer service and aftercare. They do not care about their consumers and are happy to leave us living for the last 2 years in a £600k house that has a leak and is not fit for purpose. The directors of the company also could not care less. I would never buy a house from them again and would advise anyone to think seriously before they make their purchase. Pay for a full snagging survey to be done before you move in to rectify all the building faults that there will be!

With promises of completing the roads which are in awful condition 6 years later and guess what they still aren't completed ,the estate looks so awful and messy ,they are all nice and helpful when you buy the house , then after they leave don't expect any help or assistance with these problems would never buy a home from morris again just awful .

Back garden is a waste land full of rubble - beware and ensure you include this in your snag list

I moved into my new home in Dec 2024. As the summer approached I started to consider plans for the back garden. A month ago I contacted Morris Homes Customer Care team due to the condition of the back garden. The garden had bricks, breeze blocks, broken glass etc. and was covered in stones. The soil quality was also poor and a spade couldn't be inserted more than a few centimeters into the ground. I approached a few different companies all quoted around 10 ton of top soil being required to get the dirt Morris Homes left me with into a plantable condition. This is going to cost over £2,000.I have contacted the Morris Homes customer service team - they sent people to rotavate and stone pick - on completion the back garden is still just dirt and stones. I am due to have remedial garden work start tomorrow to fix the awful conditions Morris Homes have left me with. The current situation with the customer service team is that they will send someone to inspect the wasteland but that they need 7 days to do this. I have been very clear that I have garden work starting tomorrow. Be aware, raise all of your issues within the 7 days you have of moving in and make sure you put everything on your snag list (even if you're heavily pregnant at the time like I was and aren't interested in the garden) otherwise you won't get a resolution and will end up significantly out of pocket.Having spent nearly half a million pounds on a new home I would have expected Morris Homes to at least spend a few hundred on providing top soil. I'm beyond disappointed with my experience with the customer service team so far and beyond disappointed with the condition of waste land and dirt they consider acceptable to leave a customer with.

I never understand the bad press New Builds get in the media as we have been nothing but impressed with ours. We have lived in ours now for 2 and a half years and we still receive such support from Scott the Site Manager. Scott, as well as Ian, and Lynne & Jess in the Site office, are an asset to Shelbourne Homes (Morris Homes). We still love our home and its location and couldn’t be happier. I dread the day the site is finished and Jess, Lynn, Scott and Ian all move on as they have treated us like friends and I will be sad to see them move on! Although we are in our forever home now, if we ever needed to move again, I’d be looking at Shelbourne sites before anything else.

So helpful and accommodating!!

Myself and my Partner came to view the show homes early April as we are looking to move back up North to be closer to family. Spoke with Hannah on site who was more than happy to help show us around various 4 bed houses even though she was already busy showing other people around! She gave off great energy was so helpful with everything we asked!! Although we won’t be moving for at least another year she was so helpful!! Thank you so much and we will be back again to discuss further when the time is right :)

Hannah @ Prince’s Meadows

Hannah @ Prince’s Meadows is a wonderful ambassador for the company. Helpful, friendly and knowledgeable, nothing seemed to be too much of a problem. And we like the quality of the houses and build.

Downing Gardens, Gamlingay

Absolutely disgusted with how we have been treated by Morris Homes. We had our dream home reserved at Downing Gardens, Gamlingay, for around 12 months. Due to marketing our homes during the worst mortgage rate crisis in recent history, it took a while to sell our properties subject to contract (myself and my partner both owned a property and were buying the Morris Home together). Once sold stc, my partner's sale fell through once, we then secured a new buyer who was in a chain. Due to a delay further down the chain which was out of our control, Morris decided to pull the plug on our purchase. This and the pressure put on us during the last months of our intended purchase was awful - we could do nothing but beg our solicitor to get us some answers. If this wasn't bad enough, we had also selected a number of upgrades for the property, paying around £6,000 in a deposit. Morris Homes are now refusing to refund us any of our money, stating that we signed forms at the time of ordering the upgrades which stated the deposit was non-refundable. We could accept this if we were the party that pulled out of the purchase, however it was Morris Homes themselves that collapsed our chain.AVOID AT ALL COSTS IF YOU WANT A PEACEFUL LIFE AND YOUR HARD-EARNED MONEY IN YOUR POCKET OR INVESTED IN A PROPERTY YOU ACTUALLY LIVE IN.

We went to take a look around the Prince's Meadows development in Kirkham without an appointment. We were made to feel very welcome by Hannah, who could not have been any more welcoming, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We were able to view a number of the different properties available with Hannah fully explaining all of the features and options, she also gave a full insight into the phased stages and took the time to understand what our key requirements were.

Just reserved a property at Kirkham through the Morris on site sales rep Hannah and couldn’t be happier with the service received. Hannah spent a lot of time with us explaining everything in great detail but also made it an enjoyable experience through her jovial personality. Buying a house is a big decision and quite daunting but helped take any concerns or worries away. Nothing ever seemed too much. Highly recommend.

St Mary's Park

I have been looking for a 4 bedroom family home for a while now, I found this development by looking online so I popped in to have a look, I was met by Carole and Vic who welcomed me in and really helped me with what Morris Homes had to offer and what choices were available to me. I will definitely be revisiting again with the rest of my family. Thank you both very much.

Be careful when buying a home from Morris Homes! (Scum of a company). Once they have your money for the house they don't want to know! This is the garden, they laid the turf and have put no drainage in at all. This is just walking on the grass. Morris homes said because we didn’t report this issue last year ( even though we are still in our 2 year warranty) and we have walked over the grass they will not be installing any drainage. There head of customer care Chris Moylan came round to look at the garden and said it was acceptable and they will not be doing anything about it. This guy has no ground work experience as stated by him self he just sits in an office how he can make that decision just sums this company up! They think it’s acceptable to only walk on your grass for 3 months of the year while it’s dry. The soil is clay soil so the water has no where go! The estates Facebook group homeowners are complaining about how boggy there gardens are, they have also got no where with this joke of a company! DO NOT BUY A HOUSE HERE IF YOU WANT TO GO IN THE GARDEN.

Had a pleasant experience purchasing my Morris home , Mrs Pauline and Mrs Linda was easy to deal with and answered all my questions . I expected a few problems as it is a new build but so far only little things that have been rectified quickly by the site Manager Mr. Richard. Once again I thank to Morris Team.

Morris Homes are poorly built

Morris Homes are poorly built. Buy one at your peril. The master bedroom door is not hung right ie spirit level shows its well out and the ceiling in the front room had to be reinforced has it looked like it was bellowing. The corner pieces between the ceiling and the wall in the master bedroom are also not straight thetes a slight bellow seen there and some rendering is poor. The main drain from the downstairs toilet is cracked and I'm told any repair is at my own cost. The house is leasehold and the leases through home ground working for Abacus are toxic having gone from £300 to £440 in 10 years. £140 is not the current RPI rate on £300 (March 2024) which they originally stated it would be. Its looking like our MORRIS HOME will be hard to sell now because of this technically trapping us here. Why would i want a 4 bed detached house and not own it? I have a landlord demanding money from me and restricting what I can and can't do in my own home. The road has been left unadopted and Morris Homes who built the houses won't take responsibility for that either even though it's already wearing out in the 10 years we have been here and is still unadopted by the local council. I wouldn't buy any of their homes not one. The build quality is rubbish. Don't be misguided by their sales tactics they leave you high and dry. Your home is your kingdom its a shame mines crumbling around me.
