TrustpilotProfessional and excellent staff, great facilities
All the staff without exception were friendly and professional, from Avril and Nam in the marketing suite, to Raza in legal and Shaan in customer service. Very responsive to queries, making our purchase very smooth. So far delighted with facilities and build quality and very much looking forward to moving in.

TrustpilotVery Professional!
From the time we decided to buy the apartment (under construction then), Berkeley has provided excellent service to us. We were regularly given updates on the progress of the construction. Natalie our CSM was super responsive and answered our questions in a promptly manner. She also arranged a visit for us to look at the apartment when it was safe for us to do so. The quality of the apartment is excellent too! It was such a great experience for us!

Recently purchased at the green quarter and the Berkeley home buying experience was exceptional from start to finish. Especially the customer relations team who did a great job given difficultys with covid and delays keeping proactively me informed. Flat has practically no snagging issues and the small issues or nitpicks where sorted immediately or next day. Only reason it's not 5 starts is the partnership with firtport they really need to find a better management agency partnership on the flats vs default as there issues reflect poorly on the Berkeley brand even if they are separate companies. Makes me hesitate recommend anyone buying a property if first port are managing agents.

TrustpilotNoisy tenants
I live in a 2 bedroom end terrace house built in 2016 by Berkeley, I’m at a wits end because our neighbour who are tenants have kitchen cupboards on the other side of our internal wall , you can hear everything through it I’m starting to believe there is nothing between we’re other neighbours never have a problem can I find out if there’s anyway this can be investigated as there’s something wrong thank you

TrustpilotPoor quality of brand new buildings
As it's been already said, it looks great on the outside but I'm afraid the property's quality is really poor. I have been living in a flat built by Berkeley in North London since 2019 and have been facing many issues along the way. Here are some of them: 1. garage flooding due to light rain 2. falty entrance door lock 3. popping noisy floor 4. leaky wall paint over the kitchen sink 5. leaky paint on cabinets right under the kitchen sink 5. wall dampness and mold (reported by neighbour) 6. intercom and IP guard (reported by neighbour) 8. lack of hot water (and hence heating) multiple times.

TrustpilotLooks great on the outside but cut corners on quality
New development of houses, looks great from the outside. However, we felt that Berkley have compromised on quality of the work and have cut corners to save money their end, very thin walls in the house with no sound proofing. Still ongoing snagging issues; no drainage in the garden resulting in a boggy marsh and awful roofing with rubble falling into the inner membrane. Slow at responding to these areas of concern with no plan from there side yet of how they will address these problems.

TrustpilotWoolwich Arsenal
Living in a property South of London, Woolwich Arsenal. Just after approximately 6 years of property being built the outer facade had to be repaired due to poorly built balconies. A brick from the 13th floor has fallen to the ground. Imagine if someone was walking past and it hit them... fortunately, no one was injured. Anyways, the solution was made to fix an extra layer of cladding covering the balconies to prevent further accidents. It took them around three months to fix the panels on the brickwork, despite it being rather slow for work done, they (or the contractors) left a huge mess afterwards. They have failed to properly clean the balconies and the outer windows were left dirty with grime and dirt from construction and scaffolding.Before buying think twice. What kind of quality building this is if the bricks starting to fall?

TrustpilotFantastic Customer Service Team in Berkeley
Both Sales Management team and post-completion Customer Service team did a fantastic job to inform the progress of my house development and handle snagging items effectively. Even though there had quality issues to be fixed after completion, the Customer Service team pay a keen role to bring up my confident level to recommend Berkeley as a good choice of developer.

TrustpilotBerkeley took everything from me.
2 years ago I lost all my possessions to fire. Every keepsake from my past, every photo of relatives who had passed away (including my parents), every toy my young children had ever owned, everything that could ever remind me of my past.All due to what was found by the London Fire brigade to be numerous missing and faulty parts of the fire safety systems.To this day Berkeley are fighting tooth and nail to not accept liability for what the London fire brigade and an independent report conducted shortly after, have both said was their fault.We live with the wreckage that their shoddy workmanship created. Think hard about whether you’d like to risk doing the same.

TrustpilotI was a resident of Richmond House
I was a resident of Richmond House, Worcester Park, that burned down in 2019. The fire that started in one end of this Berkeley group built block of flats spread to the other end in about 15 minutes. An independent report confirmed that a lack of cavity barriers was the main reason for such a rapid spread of the fire. However, after more than 2 years of discussions, Berkeley group lawyers deny any responsibility on the part of their client. Such audacity to deny any responsibility. So be careful with this builder.

TrustpilotDO NOT BUY FROM BERKELEY
DO NOT BUY from Berkeley homes, me and my family had to stand at 1:30 in the morning watching our first family home and everything we ever owned burn to the ground, we lost our twin daughters first clothes, first pictures, keep sakes, memories, sentimental items that will never be replaced, all because Berkeley built our block of flats with no fire stop and no cavity barriers to stop the fire spreading, Berkeley do not care about their customers they build quick and in masses and sell for a maximum profit and as soon as anything bad happens they deny any liability and leave you in the mud, there is clear evidence that our property was not built correctly and that Berkeley are at fault but yet 2 years on we are stuck homeless and Berkeley continue to deny they are in the wrong, we are not the first case from Berkeley being incompetent to build correctly and we certainly will not be the last, please do not put your families through the trauma we have been and continue to go through

TrustpilotHigh quality residences.
High quality construction; different size blocks are very attractive; site beautifully laid out (trees, gardens, lawns, open spaces, main entrance); provision of all kitchen appliances most welcome; basement parking served by lifts is excellent. Visitor parking, unfortunately, is substandard (lacks flexibility, sensitivity, realism).

TrustpilotI have bought a number of properties…
I have bought a number of properties during my life and I can unreservedly say that our journey so far with Berkeley Homes has been enjoyable. The quality of our home is “top drawer” and the customer service is exceptional. We were guided and kept informed every step of the way, it would be unfair to single out an individual as all delivered service in a professional yet personable demeanour. A commendable recruitment and training program is evident.

I had an issue with my shower only giving extremely hot water and no cold. I notified the concierge and was contacted promptly by KyrieshaHiscocks. She immediately apologized for the problem and sent a very competent Plummer (Loris) to fix it. What can I say-JOB DONE! I was very impressed with the efficiency, courtesy and professionalism of this response. Exceeded expectations!!

TrustpilotNot willing to help at all
I’ve been in contact several times to obtain some documents. I’ve been told “no you should call this number instead”, and given a new number. I’ve called three different numbers, and ended up on the first again. I’ve then been given three different email addresses where I’ve been told I would receive help, but I just get an auto reply back, with the standard “we’ll get back at you as soon as possible” line. I’ve even called several times and been promised that someone would call me back, but no one ever does! Even reached out on Twitter, but after establishing contact and explained what my issue was, it went complete silent! It has been several months, and a lot is at stake, but still nothing! I’ve never in my entire life experienced such bad/lack of customer service.

I was asleep in bed in the flat I bought from Berkeley when the fire started. 20minutes later it was gone and I was outside in my dressing gown with my 4 and 6 year old in their pyjamas.The fire brigade's report said it was due to missing fire stops. Berkeley still have not admitted liability.Do not buy anything from these cowboys. Not unless you want to risk losing everything or be stuck with a flat you can't sell.

TrustpilotThe Berkeley Group.
The Berkeley Group have been great throughout the process of buying our new house.The sales team of Adam and Harry are a real credit to company, they have been superb.The house that we bought has lots of quality fittings that you wouldn’t find elsewhere.If I could find fault, it would be having to pay an extortionate amount to have the patio extended whilst they were already laying the standard one.And not installing a washing machine and tumble dryer in the price.But aside from these two gripes, they have been great.

TrustpilotAVOID AT ALL COSTS
I live in a 15 year old leasehold flat in a Berkeley Homes "flagship development". Build quality is ok on the inside but Berkeley Homes decided to cut costs on the exterior walls, using a cheap expanded polystyrene foam external wall system which is a major fire risk. They have offered no help what so ever to fix their defect and left us to pick up the pieces and pay the bill. This was not "Designed for Life" as their slogan might suggest. Still... I guess i'm one of the "luckier" ones, take a look at Richmond House or Chelsea Bridge Wharf developments before you buy. In summary, worst decision of my life AVOID AT ALL COSTS

TrustpilotThe most dreadful developers on this…
The most dreadful developers on this planet with absolutely zero consideration for existing neighbours while they destroy their health and damage their homes while putting up their fish bowl glass apartments!Do not buy one of their homes unless the entire construction site is complete as living adjacent is a real nightmare and has continued for 5 years or more! Absolutely no consideration for local residents..Too many lies and distortion ....it is all about the cash!!!

THEY ARE NOT WORTH THE PREMIUM PRICES THEY SELL THEIR DEVELOPMENTS.CHECK A MAJOR INTERVIEW GIVEN ON AN OVERSEAS NETWORK FROM RESIDENTS OF THIS BERKELEY HOMES PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT.
