TrustpilotAmazing Customer Service
The sales lady who took us on the viewing tour was amazing. The apartments are very good in a serene environment. The Crest staff explained every feature in the building and gave answers to our questions. I am satisfied with their services.

TrustpilotCrest Doesn’t Care!!!!!
Crest doesn’t care, not about its after service, its build quality, its promise on snagging, its reputation and about its ability to say sorry because, well, that would mean they are good at their jobs.Side note - all the builders, labourers, plumbers, carpenters and electricians that have been round to fix problems are first class, all delightful and have done a great job. These people are subcontractors that have been sent round to do and job by Crest. My issue is with the people in charge of Crest, because they don’t care.We moved into our house in April 2022 and we are still waiting for the majority of our 14 day snags to be completed.They’ve manage to replace a fence panel at the wrong height in trying to fix a wall and now I have a dangerous 6 ft high panel on a 6ft wall. Surprised it was blown over with the storms Our gardens grass is pretty much dead and the lack of drainage has attributed to this, but they don’t care. Despite every other garden having no problem and thinking there is a problem, Crest don’t care We have floor boards that are mis-aligned and creak loudly when anyone is upstairs - you can actually feel the boards move under the carpets and how the room doesn’t feel 100% flat, but Crest doesn’t care We have mismatching drain covers that we told would be replaced. They haven’t Worth noting that every single sink has leaked since we moved and it’s taken multiple visits for us to get liveable water pressure and a working shower, but again Crest doesn’t care.If you deal with Donna from customer services, be warned. She really doesn’t careThen again the whole management team and senior leadership team doesn’t care, guess that’s why they are struggling financially, but they don’t care I’m really not expecting a response but I bet you it’s this because Crest doesn’t careThank you for taking the time to share your experience, we have sent you a request via Trustpilot to ask for more information so we can look into this.

We have visisted our local Potters Grange site and the staff have gone above an beyond to help us...even the site building manager spared us some time to go over a few queries and to look at how they are built! We are so pleased with our choice and look forward to picking all the interior items with your lovely staff for our new home.

TrustpilotTerrible Customer Service
Terrible Customer Service, Did not respond to any of my voicemails for months, as all their staff where 'working' from home. Numerous faults with my property that CN are refusing to acknowledge even though they where flagged with the 2 year NHBC Warranty Period, apparently moving into a new build property after the snagging period has ended leaves you with no rights according to CH. I would not touch anything to do with this company.

TrustpilotAbsolutely abysmal company
Absolutely abysmal company. Since buying a brand new property from them, it has been one serious thing after another. They did not follow basic building regulations, and now the whole property has to be pulled apart and rebuilt. Their customer ‘service’ is non existent, and their customer service coordinator in particular, shows utter contempt for homeowners. She is rude, obnoxious and totally ineffective. The whole company cannot seem to be able to be trusted to build a property efficiently, deal with snagging issues, nor respect the people that they have taken money from. Snagging issues still persist 2 years later, and the NHBC has been instructed by multiple homeowners.For some reason, Crest Nicholson do not appear to care about the negative impact they have on customers, who should be able to move into one of their properties without constantly fighting to get their basic rights met. This company has made what should have been a happy time, full of angst and frustration.*CN asking for review to be taken down via Trustpilot, not for more information.

TrustpilotAdding insult to injury - a dangerous structure
After 7 years constant chasing Crest Nicholson finally replaced the dangerous deck at our flat in Bolnore Village but only after I had fallen and suffered injury. Then they blamed me for using the deck! Following their refusal to offer compensation we instructed solicitors to make a claim. For the last 6 months Crest's tactic has been to ignore most correspondence and generally be unresponsive; so much for Customer Service. Looks like we will end up in Court - updates to follow. PS for Crest, please don't respond on Trustpilot asking for more information, I have sent innumerable emails to your Director of Customer Services and MD to no avail.

TrustpilotNot the 5* experience advertised
Not the 5* experience advertised. Staff were unhelpful regarding hazardous mould issue down to extractor fans not working. Customer service staff were not understanding the issue and they would not come out to inspect the issue. Currently awaiting a complaint to be resolved otherwise going to the financial ombudsman to get this sorted due to health concerns for my family.

This company of developers does not care about the people around them and the safety of others . Just a greedy developer who just wants to make a profit. Maybe we should build around the owners property?? Just a thought . Avoid buying from this company!!

TrustpilotWillow Place
Still in the building process, aside from a few emails and a change of contacts on their part, nothing to advise against, I think a lot will be around as to how they deal with the snags after it’s built. It does seem as if the proactive element from their part now that the documents have been signed has been less and less. Will keep posting as my journey continues.

Having had a Crest new build before in 2017, we have now moved in to a second Crest new build property. What an absolute downgrade this has been in terms of finishes as standard and service. This company is certainly heading in the wrong direction and we would never buy from them again.
