GoogleDon't expect any kind of communication once they have your money. Snagging list sent twice (first time 11 months ago) and still nothing. House not safe for my 2 young kids as fire alarms left covered on completion (not addressed despite being reported) and now have spindles loose on staircase after being in just a year..one completely loose which a child could easily fall through. There's a long list of other snags such as damp in wall near French doors possibly as sealant was somehow missed one side (reported in December and finally turned up months later so unsealed all winter). That's the only issue that's been sorted and took them months. Had pooling water next to house as garden not laid level. There's kitchen doors damaged and other joinery issues...All reported and ignored. I could reel off the full professional snagging list but would be here all day to be honest. Get yourself a fixer upper instead!!!

GoogleBeen in house nearly 3 years. Still not got kitchen sink sorted. Last attempt (4th) by plumbers damaged worktop and still waiting rectification work. Delays blamed on plumber or waiting for quote from symphony kitchens.

GoogleHave to agree with the two previous reviews. Shocking workmanship and groundworks horrendous. Lots of issues on moving in. Plumbers had even put hot and cold fill wrong way round for en suite and had to have hole cut in bedroom wall to access it as shower unusable. Flooded garden eventually sorted but still had to get landscapers in to sort out back garden. Neighbours still unable to cut theirs after 9 months as too flooded! Turf in front died even after months of rain as laid on sand. They eventually replaced it after much nagging but still poor. Awaiting several snagging issues to be sorted after 9 months. Front door fitted badly and in spite of repeating requests and lots of inspection and all saying same thing .. Needs frame and door replacement as badly fitted, still awaiting this to be sorted. Drain pipe missing as ground workers covered up drain. It was picked up apparently but nothing was done about it. They just decided to miss drainpipe off. We could go on ... It's a shame as site managers excellent and helpful but their remit is obviously to get in with the new builds and no one is employed to cover customer care snagging issues it seems. Very disappointed in in David Wilson customer care head office. They making site managers job hard as well as an sure they are fed up with all the snagging issues.

GoogleMake ridiculous claims in planning to shoe horn more houses on sites than should be on. Underestimating traffic and impacts on areas, and using their housing mafia status to force houses being built in frankly unsuitable areas.
Despite huge rejection from Deepcar residents they go ahead with 90 odd houses on Hollin Busk, wrecking natural habitat amd beautiful open space and filling what was once stunning landscape with their monstrous looking lego houses.
Incidentally the site is also a former mining area and 2 pit heads and sit in the fields. That's why is has never been built on before, but they'll bang some lego homes up and charge 500k a piece for them and people eill buy them?
