Linden Homes Yorkshire Scunthorpe reviews

★★★★★ 1/5

Jonathan from the sales office is the only credible element at the Linden Homes Ferriby Rise site in Grimsby. I was due to complete on a coach house within days, however a growing list of build issues put me off. Incredibly they managed to fit the wrong kitchen and badly, the boiler located in a kitchen cabinet so badly fitted it stuck out the bottom of the cabinet and was so close to the side of the cabinet that it was outside the manufacturers minimum specifications and any future boiler unless it was the same size was unlikely to fit without major works. Plumbing under the sink made it impossible without modification to connect a dishwasher that Linden Homes were supplying at a mark up of 50% to high street prices. The tiny roof extractor fan was connected to an impossibly long hose connected to the highest point in the roof. However, no means venting could be seen outside. The main bathroom had a bath and tiling above so far apart as to be ridiculous and a waste pipe running exactly parallel to where the bath side panel would have been had it been fitted and the skirting board wasn't long enough to reach the panel either. There was a huge area of rough plaster over the final paint finish running the full available width of the room. The skylight had a varying gap of up to half an inch on one side. In the en-suite a tile in the shower had a chunk missing and builders rubble was in the shower tray and down the plug hole. The isolator switch above the door was about 6 inches off being central. Despite the walls being fully painted, gaps going back to brick work were exposed round windows and unfilled. In bedroom 2, the same window issue plus a damaged plug socket and skirting so bowed in one place it was beyond comprehension. The recessed lighting I ordered and quoted at a very high price was not fitted where I had written it down on a plan in all rooms. The Juliet balcony door was unfinished with obviously issues to the skirting below. Overall the quality of wall finishes was very poor with obvious blemishes. By the front door there had been serious damage to a plasterboard wall which had been filled so badly it looked like a 6 year old had done it. On the roof those edging tiles on the apex were falling off and 2 had. No garage door and other random issues with mortar needing attention. This is on a property I was due to move into within days. No sign of any NHBC certificate and that's not a complete list above!!!. If you MUST buy, please inspect your property before exchange of contracts and read everything your solicitor sends you regarding restrictive covenants...You will be shocked. also understand you'll be committed to paying forever for so called play areas where if you read the small print you have virtually no rights and it'll be in your deeds. Don't expect the site manager to help you either, my one and only interaction with him was appalling, he was rude and borderline aggressive, spending most of the time telling me what they won't be doing. Guess what, that was the last straw and as the customer I've had enough, I'm the customer not the enemy!!. Now I'm left with a collapsed properly chain and bills. No wonder Linden Homes are rated poorly...good luck to anyone who eventually buys plot 61...maybe Linden will actual get it in a marketable condition?

Wrong buyer name in system

Cannot believe a so call 5 star, the reservation system for my document prepare is incorrect for the buyer name and reported to them, make a change with the same mistake. It is just so funny to see something like this when I have already mention my surname and first name is the email to them.

Love our home

We brought a fletcher linden home at falfield grange the site was finished this was the last house pretty much ready to go. Sales team were brilliant always had someone to get in contract with. (Becci was fantastic) We have had a few snags since moving in which is to be expected from a new home. We did have a leak from the hot water tank which we were not impressed with but things happen. The customer service team were brilliant got someone out straight away, Hayley, Shaunagh & April such lovely people friendly on the phone really understand where your coming from, they have made sure someone has booked work in to sort the snags straight away so we can not complain at that. David the site manager who came down from the brockworth site to help sort some snags has been fantastic, always in contact with me checking things have been sorted. We love the small housing estate we live on the views are fantastic. The size of the house we got we paid a very good price for it considering what else is around. The only negative review I would give is the garden not being very level and bumpy, patio slabs very basic only a few put down.

You will realise snag list is so high once you bought the house and they would not rectify them

I bought a 4bed show home in shinfield Medows in 2018. When I first got the keys , I realised bath shower curtain is missing. They have taken it to fix it to different house. There was a big snag list including tiles not fixed properly, bath, door frames, kitchen cupboards wrongly fit. You wouldn’t believe how bad the house was. I was waiting for so long them to rectify it. Time to time someone come and they would say they have brought the wrong door or it is a too much of big job. They have to come again. Still they have not rectified anything in to 5 years from buying the house. They will only be nice till you buy the house.

Brefunde aware

Be aware. Read small print. My wife and i put a deposit of £99. Down on a house. Thought that was the one for us. But didnt no less then 24hrs,we changed our minds, that was a month ago, just found out, they dont give refunds only on a £1000 a £100 isent much to them with cost of living you would think as a good conpany they would give you your money back. So make sure you dont hand, a deposit over unless you are a 100% sure. Your lose it descusting. These companys take it very qwick thoe. Thanks Lindin Mark Jordan.

Fabulous experience with Linden Homes!

Fabulous experience with Linden Homes! I bought a flat on their Spinnaker development and right from the start was very impressed. Gareth and the sales team were very efficient and the completion took place exactly on time. The aftercare from the site team, especially Mark the site manager was extremely good and the couple of snags I had were fixed very quickly. The quality of build was also very good. I would defer recommend Linden Homes as a good developer to buy from.

Really pleased we chose Linden Homes !! :-)

Recently Bought the House from Linden Homes ,Brindley Edge Coventry and we were really pleased with the overall process .Both Carole & Leah did everything within their remit to make our home buying and related process so smooth and very really helpful to say the least.They ensured throughout the process that we were being looked after.Even after the Move-in Date the site manager Vez/Denis ensured we did not encounter any major issues and any initial snags post-Move in were rectified in a matter of days .Denis even went out of his way to support with any non-snag issues we raised and was happy to help anytime .Same goes for the workmen around the area who till date offer help /support and ask if we have settling in well which is a really kind and welcoming Gesture.The build quality of the new build is of really good quality going by our experience of being a 2nd time New build owner.The building works on site are still going but the builders make sure the area is kept clean and we are well informed of any upcoming works if it could be disruptive in regards to traffic/noise etc.Overall really happy with Linden homes on the whole and would highly recommend them to anyone for their amazing support/customer services and quality of build.Thanks Guys ! you are doing a brilliant Job :-)Soniya & Vip

Not all developments are the same

Not all developments are the same. Oak Farm Meadow in Stowupland is very good. When we first read the reviews of Linden Homes, we were very concerned and decided to stay clear. After hearing that the quality of a development is dependent on the site manager, we decided to look again. I’m so glad we did, the site manager and deputy both have very high standards. We were reassured by this and decided to buy here. The site even hosted a BBQ for existing and prospective buyers which indicated confidence in their homes. The site is well thought out and very well located, edge of village but easy access to Stowmarket and main road. We were able to visit the house at various points in the build. We have now been in for 8 months and can honestly say we are so happy here. We had several minor snags as expected but none of the horror stories that seem so common these days. The snags we did have were sorted. A friend who works on other new build sites has commented on the high quality of the finish. The pipes are finished neatly, the mastic is neat, the woodwork is well finished. We have hardly any settling cracks so far and they are only visible by looking close up. We did have to wait longer than expected for our fence line to be put in place but that was the only big frustration. Credit where credit is due, the quality of Oak Farm Meadow seems very high.

Don't waste your money or time

Where to begin! Initially I was blown away by Lindens and their great sales team. I was so chuffed when I moved in and couldn't wait to settle in to my new home. However I quickly realised as soon as I moved in that they had missed something very vital out of their sales pitch. This was relating to the HIU (community heating system). I had no idea what this was when I moved in. Why is this? Because they missed out a vital document in my solicitors pack which explained exactly what this was and there was no mention AT ALL before purchasing that my property was one of the ones that had to be apart of the HIU! I raised a complaint, this was dismissed and none of my points were addressed or responded too. Wishy washy answers to deflect the real issue. Because of this missing info I was informed correctly when buying the property just how much my bills would cost. I was never told at the time of selecting my property 'oh btw this one run on a community heating system', I went ahead and purchased the property unequipped with the correct information and now my monthly gas bills are £300pm!!! My shower leaked - they had to rip out my ensuite and 2 weeks later I am still waiting for it to be finished. The neighbour upstairs is insanely loud, the floor boards creak and every step he takes the light fittings rattle. They do everything they can to avoid responsibility and no offer of compensation to put things right. Apparently Linden homes are one of the better ones, well if thats true, we all have no hope!

Awful. Be aware Linden homes Vistry Group

Awful.We bought a new build because we wanted an easy life having spent 10 years renovating a very old house. We should have known when we were not permitted to see the house (in the three months they knocked it up in) that things weren’t great, but we were excited about the new build experience. Laughable. It’s cost us multiples of hundreds of pounds to rectify issues in the home.We are nearly two years in and we are still waiting for painting, glossing to be done. Everything is poor. Report it to customer service you say? Good luck with that. Linden homes (Vistry) send cowboys that make it worse rather than fixing it. Linden homes send them for two hours at a time weeks apart. So by the time you’ve cleaned up after them (sanding dust everywhere, they don’t close doors, sealant wiped all over furniture, up kitchen units etc) your back at again. Issues were on the snag list, multiple issues have occurred since, repeatedly reported to customer service. Still no resolve. When my other half rang this week and suggested they use cowboys in their social media the customer service lady laughed! She proceeded to say it would be another 2 weeks before somebody would come to assess.
