Elmwood Congleton

We had a great buying experience from start to finish with Seddon Homes. Emma from the sales team was excellent from us reserving our home to completing in December 2021. As this was our first home we weren’t aware of the whole buying process but Emma was very helpful throughout.Vic and Wayne have also been great throughout the process and always been around to help if we have any questions or queries.Overall Emma, Vic and Wayne are a credit to have to the Seddon Homes Team.Zac and Sadie

Brilliant experience with Seddon!

Our experience with Seddon has been brilliant. Sue, Wayne, Scott and all the team at Ashway park have made the experience of buying our first house so much less stressful than we anticipated and we are loving our new home. Some small snags as expected but these were all dealt with within 2 weeks and perfectly done. Thank you to all the team!

Seddon Homes

Sharon the sales assistant was great, better than Barrett Homes in Kew southport, it was like they didn't want your business 😅whereas Sharon she was approachable and friendly and she of course she wants the sale but there was no pushing or anything, she reassured us as much as she could had a hiccup on the key pickup day but other than that couldn't fault her.As for our home, y'know what, great house love the design. Just wish they took more care and time when they actually do the finishing touches. That way there wouldn't be that many snags. We still have snags left but we only moved in in April so hopefully will be all done soon 🤷🏽‍♂️. The garden..... well we have had it flagged properly now so that's a start but the raised bit at the back, I wish I could upload a picture! There is actually a gap under the fence at the back also which a dog could easily escape through, good job we don't have one yet but hope this can be sorted! Also the pointing in the brick work isn't up to standard, i just hope it doesn't allow damp to creap in!New site manager now on site as the other manager, his days were numbered on here, all due respect he did get things done, just got so defensive over certain situations and came up with excuses, questioning your intelligence. And his communication, well there wasn't any. Hopefully the new one keeps me in the loop and finishes off the jobs.Let's see how we get on in the next few months!

Orchard Manor, Grimsargh

Its two months since we moved into our new Seddon home at Orchard Manor and we are really happy with the quality of the house (both external appearance and internal finish), its location and the development it is located on. We have had great support and help from Heather during the buying process and Johnny, the site manager, for managing the handover and rapid completion of snagging list.

Weavers way

So we was looking for our first home to buy, we viewed many other developments but in the end we decided to go with seddon homes. Right from the start we was dealing with Andy at weavers way he was honest and polite, he explained everything in detail as we was new to the housing market, Any question wasn’t too much trouble. He let us view the show home we we fell in love with, it was well presented with only light fittings and blinds up at the windows this gave you a real perspective of what the house was really like, unlike some developers fill there show homes with unrealistic furniture to make you buy the dream. So the sales process continued and we came into contact with our solicitor and financial advisor all provided by seddons it all went so smooth we literally ready for ex changing contracts within a month of viewing, after this there was a few knock backs for completion but only a few weeks it was all worth the wait. We received the keys towards the end of January and are now settling in with only a few snags on the list but nothing you wouldn’t expect from a new build Up to now we have been very pleased with seddons and just a special thank you to Andy for everything he has done.

Be careful with what you cannot see…

Be careful with what you cannot see with a Seddon Homes house. Broken drains cannot be seen. We've had rats in the walls. As no one was aware of the hole within the first 2 years they don't want to know. Disabled child with rats in her bedroom walls. We got a 1 line email back saying basically they don't care as it wasn't spotted it (underground, under a concrete floor) within 2 years. How can you see your drains under a concrete floor? Avoid.As you can see from Seddons reply they take no responsibility for the issues you encounter once you get passed 24 months of being in there. Think on if you are wanting to commit to a family home. The idea you'd need to survey the drainage of a 6 year old house, as they suggest, tells you all you need to know about the quality provided. Not one shred of responsibility for their product causing misery. So very poor. As you can see from their reply no denial the drains are broken and have led to us having rats. Think on.

Congleton Falcon Rise, Christine Hunt

Congleton Falcon Rise: thanks Christine and Danny! The house is amazing we love it, we still can't believe it's ours, you really went out of your way to help us, you were patient with us when we were struggling with our chain. We were initially attracted to the design of the houses which stood out compared to the other builders in Congleton, The Kerridge design is beautiful and very practical for our family. There are still some snags but nothing major and I can see you are getting through the list. I don’t know about the other sites but we are really happy about the Falcon Rise team and whole process. I would definitely recommend!

Zodiac Warrington

Some people are wary of buying a new build property. Our experience is that, with Seddon Homes, the entire process has been a pleasure. Zodiac is a fantastic development where we agreed to buy our house in the early stages of the build. We have been incredibly lucky that everyone on site is so friendly, and committed to excellence in build quality and customer care. Nothing has been too much trouble, from the plot reservation, through options selection, build update, and handover, to post-completion sign off. Even after completion, we are still made to feel welcome and appreciated each day. The end result is a wonderful new home, delivered by a great team of people, who Seddon Homes should be very proud of. Particular thanks and praise are due to: Laura, Naomi, John and Ollie. Guys, you are superstars.

Sharon (Sales Representative) @Hawtree Grove

Writing this review is a must for us, not because we had to but because we were compelled to do so by the kindness and care shown to us by Sharon. From the beginning, when we were just browsing, not looking to buy a property for a few months, to this very day ( 3 days after having moved in) she has been and still is a delight to work with. I work in sales myself, so seen as i know the tricks of the trade we have come across many people who are dishonest and just care about scoring a sale, and to us the most important thing was not to have a perfect journey but go on this journey with honest, trustworthy, reliable and hardworking people. Sharon has by far exceeded the expectations, fighting our corner when the waiting game was long and taking care of everything needed. We have loved getting to know her and working with her to see one of our biggest dreams come true. Kindness is what we value and your kindness has really blessed us. We couldn’t recommend her enough! We are grateful to be working with her to finalise the small details needed to make our house, our HOME. Sharon (@ Hawtree Grove , Banks, Southport), thank you for everything big and small, it hasn't gone unnoticed. From:Chris & Xhoi Doake!

Stung into a "fleecehold" property

We initially had a good relationship with Seddon Homes, although their sales assistant was very pushy and needed us to sell our house before they would accept a reservation, of which we complied with. We finally moved into our house after a slight delay and there was the usual snagging issues that were rectified. There was an issue with the kitchen hob that was initially on our snagging list, that they refused to fix, blaming other companies - basically the kitchen fitters didn't do a good job and Seddon signed off on it!We had no surface on our road for well over a year after Seddon left the development, we felt like they had just left us with an unfinished street - still 18 months after the last house was finished, the road is not complete. Now the final nail in the coffin arrived, a bill from Greenbelt Group for maintenance fee's. This was mentioned briefly at sale, but having done some research it seems like Greenbelt and Seddon have been in bed negotiating contracts to extort customers - just search this website for Greenbelt Group!I'm really frustrated that we are now locked into a contract with Greenbelt Group for the life of the property! There are motions going in court at the moment with these so called "fleecehold" uncapped tactics so hopefully there will be some legislation soon to stop the likes of Seddon Homes putting these hidden things in the deeds of other developments. I have gone over our TP1 (deeds) and 3/4 is full of restrictions by Greenbelt, the worst is that we need a certificate from them to sell our own house! Totally locked into this money scam.

Awful service and integrity.

Awful service.Issues with build and sewer works at Belvedere site have been ongoing since new and 3 years still no ownership or resolutions. Sewer gas leaking into new build homes through internal drains and floorboards!Because it's intermittent, seddon turn up a few days after when the smell has gone and claim everything is fine. Happens multiple times a year, is disgusting and a massive health issue.

My experience with Seddon Homes has been extremely disappointing. I received unprofessional emails on Saturday evenings, inaccurate or incomplete information, and staff showed no empathy during a significant purchase for me.

Seddon Homes - Aspenwood Grange

We were buying a new build off plan (a first for us), and from start to finish we found the sales (Laura and Naomi) and site staff (Zak and Johnny) friendly and at all times helpful, prompt at responding to questions and issues and reassuring. Regular site visits enabled us see the house develop and reassure us that after living 25 years in an Edwardian semi we were making the right move. After moving in the inevitable minor snags were fixed quickly, including those reported after the 10 day list had been submitted. The house is lovely and everything we hoped for and I would rate the our sales and after sales expeience as excellent.

Professionalism throughout

I took possession of a property at the Elmwood development in Congleton just before Christmas 2021. From the initial enquiry I made in May 2021 Emma, the sales consultant was informative and provided all the information up front. I paid a deposit the same day I went for a "quick chat"! Each stage of the build process was clearly explained from when to engage the conveyancer through to selecting the finishes for kitchen and bathroom areas and choosing optional extras. I was given regular updates from paying the deposit to taking possession of the property. I was able to view the build at selected stages of the build process and given a full demonstration of all the property appliances prior to handover. Once I was in the property I had the opportunity to report any items that were not completed to my satisfaction and pass a list of these "snags" to the site manager Vic. I only had 7 items to report and all of these were rectified within two weeks by Vic and Wayne from the site team. The overall standard of the property is high and the standard of material used in the fittings and fixtures is step up from other developments I have visited. Both the sales team and the on site construction team went above and beyond to ensure that I, as the customer was informed of progress for the build and they were on hand to answer any questions I had. The whole process has been effortless and Seddon Homes were a pleasure to deal with. Their customer service is excellent both before and after I took possession of my new home. I would recommend anybody looking at a new build home to go and view a Seddon Homes site. The team will make you feel special.

Would absolutely not recommend

We moved into the new development and provided a list of snags within 7 days that took nearly 6 months to fix instead of the promised 1 month (even with us having to chase multiple times). The aftercare has been absolutely poor to say the very least. We were misled multiple times during the sale, particularly about fencing that was supposed to provide added security and privacy, 7 months later we’ve now been told this won’t be installed. That’s not all. During the sale process towards the end of completion, the developer changed design elements in the kitchen without notice or explanation. The combination of unfulfilled promises, negligent aftercare, and unprofessional and borderline rudeness from the after care team management has been very disappointing and would absolutely not recommend this developer.

Very professional patient and kind lady Thank you Deborah.

I visited the Belvedere site last week by appointment the help I was given by Deborah was above and beyond she had lots of patience with me and explained all about the Elton flat that I’m interesting in buying , she has rung me twice since with updates. I’m buying the flat on my own So I needed to ask a lot of questions. Thank you for all your help

Beautiful new home, 5* service and build

We bought a new home off plan in March this year, a first for us ! The whole process was so easy, helped by the amazing sales team of Laura and Naomi who looked after us the whole way. We had regular updates on our build and on site visits so we could the house's development. The house has exceeded all our expectations, it's built to a very high spec and the aftercare from Zak and Sean on site has been first class. We feel very lucky and privileged to live in the beautiful development of Aspen Grange, Marple x

Repeated Leaks and Flooded Garage, A Disappointing Experience with Seddon Homes

We purchased a home at Lavender Fields from Seddon Homes hoping for a quality build, but our experience has been profoundly disappointing. Within a short period, we've encountered a total of 5 substantial leaks throughout the house, with one still unresolved. Each leak has taken considerable time to address, requiring multiple visits from various tradespeople. This ongoing disruption has caused significant stress, exacerbated by a severe lack of communication between the trades and Customer Care. Furthermore, our garage has been completely flooded twice, each time with approximately 6 inches of muddy water. We were unable to move into the property the first time it happened due to the unresolved leaks documented above. Because nothing was severely damaged, Seddon Homes showed little interest in addressing the issue, despite our multiple efforts to highlight its severity. This lack of action left us unwilling to store items in the garage, leading to additional costs for external storage. As feared, it happened again. Although drains have since been installed, we have received no assurances that the garage will not flood again, which is extremely concerning for a company building homes across the country. As a form of compensation, we requested the installation of land drains in our garden, which gets waterlogged due to rubble that hasn't been removed by the builder. The Contracts Manager initially assured us this would be done. However, Customer Care later reneged on this promise following a superficial garden inspection by their staff, which consisted merely of digging a couple of holes. We had high hopes for our new home and have given multiple opportunities for Seddon Homes to resolve the issues. However, these recurring problems have made it difficult to enjoy. We sincerely hope Seddon Homes takes these concerns seriously and addresses them promptly for the sake of current and future homeowners.

Avoid, avoid, avoid!

Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. We wish we had read these reviews before getting involved with this god-awful company. The sales office lied to us about anticipated building completion, and then denied all knowledge. They took our money for extras and then piled on the pressure to exchange contracts despite them knowing that wasn’t possible. We were literally being called weekly, being asked for “updates” - they knew we didn’t have any!! They also changed the design of the house we were buying without even letting us know, and proving absolutely awful lies about the reason why! Fortunately we were able to pull out once we uncovered their lies, but only got a refund for our extras with the threat of the ombudsman. Avoid this awful company.

Belvedere at Malsis

We recently completed on a plot at the Seddon Homes Belvedere site at Malsis. We were pleasantly surprised by the setting and surroundings, yet having missed out on other opportunities were feeling uncertain. However, the Sales Agent Deb Crampy was fantastic, not at all pushy, just knew her site and was so helpful, put all our apprehension at bay. Brilliant at what she does! Thank you!! Sarah and Peter

Disgraceful !!!

Earlier in the year, we rated Seddon Homes as good but since moving in to our new bungalow, there have been major problems. The after care is appalling. The shower had not been fitted correctly, causing a leak. The plumber who eventually repaired this, caused another leak in the bedroom, ruining the new carpet. We have been communicating with customer care but they do not seem to act on their promise to rectify the issue. We have now been told they can't send anyone until July 27th. This has been going on since early May. Disgraceful!!

Happy thank you

Moving house after 22 years in the previous one was a daunting thought but once we saw the Denbigh (the space, specification and design) we knew, there was no contest. Sales Execs Andy and Vicky eased the way along.Since moving in, our After Care experience has been exceptional. The 2 Site Managers have been attentive and responsive. Nothing too much trouble.We are very happy in our Seddon Home.
