Please respond to our problem with the…

Please respond to our problem with the front lawn man hole cover. Now our 2nd lawn mover has just packed in, unable to mow the front lawn because you turfed over solid clay ground that had construction vehicle deep tyre tracks on it.. Raised this query in July, it took 2 months for your landscaper just to pop over to say we need to mow the lawn and it's none of their business. Have since responded again and again and again but nobody gives a S***.

Promotion of Brightwells Yard by Crest Nicholson

A very transparent, constructive discussion took place with Sally and Victoria from Crest at Brightwells Yard. I felt well informed and able to make a decision, encouraged to do so in my own time. Every effort was made to give me a relevant tour of properties within my budget, and to explain the dynamics of the location, as well as the process to be followed if I decided to invest. Highly recommended!

Disappointed and dismayed.

I purchased my new build home from Crest Nicholson just over four years ago in the Bond House development, and I'm shocked by the experience. In fairness, for the most part, there have been very few issues during the time I've been here. However, this one issue has left me utterly dismayed.I first raised this issue three months ago, and since then, the situation has continued to deteriorate. In the interim, I formally raised a complaint as well, but regrettably, my concerns have been now been met with complete silence.The main concern is a corroding bath, which Crest Nicholson alleges is a result of my placing a wet bath mat on it. I find this explanation utterly perplexing and unacceptable. After just over four years, needing to purchase a replacement bath due to corrosion is beyond belief. The evidence, supported by the bath manufacturer and third-party tradespeople, clearly suggests that an unsealed bath panel allowed moisture to accumulate and corrosion to develop. This conclusion is further reinforced by the state of my neighbours' sealed baths, who do not have this issue.It's deeply disappointing that Crest Nicholson has not taken this matter seriously and failed to provide a satisfactory resolution. This level of neglect and unresponsiveness is not what I expected from a reputable developer, especially on a new build.Furthermore, it's disheartening to see that Crest Nicholson's responses to negative reviews seem to follow a predictable pattern, offering requests for more information but often falling short of addressing the actual issues. This approach raises concerns about accountability and transparency, and it's evident in the way they handle honest reviews.What's equally alarming is that the corroded bath has become a health and safety hazard, with sharp edges that make it dangerous for family and guests, especially children. It's an embarrassing situation for a new build home, as it restricts my ability to have family gatherings (at least until a permanent resolution is in place). Please consider this as a warning before making a decision to purchase from Crest Nicholson.This experience has marred an otherwise mostly unproblematic four years in my new home. I had higher expectations for a reputable developer like Crest Nicholson. I hope that future buyers will have a more positive experience, but I would advise caution and thorough inspection before considering a purchase from this developer.

Be advised it is untrustworthy company

I reserved a plot at Grange Meadows, Somerset and paid £1000, more expensive ever.During the proccess I discovered that Crest Nicholson altered the development project increasing the number the houses but the company did not regularize it with the Environmental Agency.The most serious problem was with the Water and Sewage company. Crest Nicholson placed the main sewer pipe directly in front of the main entrance of the house under the sidewalk and according to legal procedure and report of Title it should be in the middle of the street. This sewage pipe receives waste from 73 houses and works with a pressure pumping station as the site is flat. I was forced to cancel the reservation as the company will not correct the errors and said he will not relocate the pipe, which could cause structural problems for the house.I also had to pay part of my solicitor's costs.

Generally good

We found the sales team helpful and professional at all times. Everyone on site has been very accommodating during and after our move in despite a lot of ongoing work around us. Generally we are very pleased with our purchase although a little disappointed that some aspects of the build were the cheap options, particularly the kitchen, which we will be replacing immediately. What a waste.The amount of planted shrubs in the landscaping is also ridiculous, these shrubs will grow huge and shouldn't be planted so close together.

Biggest regret of my life

Biggest regret of my life choosing a crest Nicholson home. 2 years of putting plasters over snags, I’ve done most of them myself. Now they’re just fobbing me off with “snags should have been raised within the first 2 years”. Not how it works crest. Now I’ve just changed the flooring in one of my rooms, I paid nearly £500 for laminate. It’s cheap, crap vinyl… wish I realised within the 2 year mark as this will be fobbed off too. Thanks Crest. Do yourself a favour people, go anywhere else

Crown Meadows

We visited for the launch weekend of The Crown Meadows site in Faversham. Chatted with a friendly sales advisor who showed us details of the properties within our budget. I was disappointed not to see show homes as details on paper are not the same, and can be seen online. It was promoted as a big launch weekend but was not what I was expecting.

Poor customer serivce

Experienced intermittent blockage of our drainage pipes since moving in over two years ago. After lots of extra cost to sort and investigate we found a block of wood and debris from build stage blocking the external sewage pipe. Taken over a month to receive a response to this issue and still yet to hear anything to compensate for the cost we have had to pay. Initially told there was nothing they could do as we were past our guarantee date (despite this not being our fault) and were also told that the development despite completion still hasn't been past across to the local water perovider, therefore they were also unwilling to try and resolve the issue for us, hence having to pay the cost ourselves.

Crest Nicholson’s customer service

Crest Nicholson’s customer service after buying a property is shocking! I have read the other one star reviews and can see we all have had the same problems with lack of communication and moving things forward! Auto emails advise they will get back to you in 5 working days but can’t stick by this! Emails sent advising they will get back to you by a certain date are not met so another date is given and guess what also not met! I do not require a reply asking for more information as you have been sent multiple times the issues I have and you can search by my name!

More issues

Unfortunately we have had to escalate to the necessary ombudsman. We have an issue that could cause serious damp issues and affect the structural integrity of our property, plus a kitchen which needs to be entirely refitted. Official complaint raised in June and still no plan to sort it out. Lucky if you get any response. Really disappointed and would urge anybody to be cautious. It’s not that the issue is there, anybody buying a new build should prepare for that - it’s the lack of support, interest and willingness to resolve.

AWFUL

AWFUL! After sales from Crest is absolutely shocking, especially communication! Never reply to our emails/ calls. Snags have still not been completed and we moved in a year ago. Crest have changed their site managers at least 4 times since we’ve been here, so the snags that were started get left when a site manager leaves. Would not recommend to anyone! Very dissatisfied and disappointed.** EDITED**So they show that they have responded to my review, asked for my information which I provided! Still no response two weeks later…. JOKE

Mulberry View- Amazing service from sales to post completion

We could not be happier with our experience with Crest Nicholson. Carly and Natalie in the Sales Team were brilliant throughout and kept us well informed and guided us through the purchase of our first home. Our solicitors were awful and Carly and Natalie were the ones to keep us on track and made it as stress free as they could. Post completion Ray and Natasha on site have been amazing. They checked in regularly in the beginning, took care of all the snags within a few weeks and nearly 9 months later are only a phone call away if we have any needs or concerns. We love our new home and wouldn’t change anything about it and daily we are grateful we chose Crest Nicholson Mulberry View
