Best experience thanks to Brett

We were the first time buyers and so scared all the paperwork but thanks to Brett Squance our purchase was like shopping at Lidl. He is like an Angel on earth. For him wasn't a problem to help us no matter what time of the day. Even when he was off from work. Always happy with smile on his face very kind and extremely helpful. Best experience buying our first house. If we couldn't catch solicitors or mortgage advisors he always found a way to catch them.Brett we told you few times that you are our angel but one more time you are an angel. Thank you so much for your help and patience to us. We know that we were not easy customers. Thanks to You we have our first house what we see first time on site plan.Big thanks to Ryan site manager as well. Its a very patient and polite guy. Like other people know nothing is perfect and always you find some issues in your home because the are build to fast. Thanks to Ryan all issues gone. I admire him for the fact that he has so much on his mind and he can still help us.Thank You so much guys.

Briarwood- great quality company

We have just moved into our first home together and we couldn’t have done it without the help and support of Brett. From day 1 Brett has been amazing! Besides finding us our dream home he even managed to get us a lower mortgage rate by speaking through with us other options! Brett really went above and beyond!! On the day of move in Brett welcomed us with a beautiful hamper full of yummy and very fancy treats, aswell as having a bow on the front door. Even since being in our home Brett has continued to be supportive and helpful and has even met our new puppy 🐶 Ryan has been helpful at sorting out snagging problems and is easy to speak too if you have any concerns. Tilia Homes has made this whole “buying your first property” experience much easier and smoother! Would 10000% recommend to anyone.

Briarwood

Briarwood I have recently moved into my first new home. I am more than happy with everything and want to thank Brett Squance for being so professional and so helpful during this process. He was always at the end of the line when needed, even on his day off (thanks again Brett! :) The attention to details was outstanding! He came by the very next day after I moved in, to check on how everything was, how I was. That was very nice and it shows that these people really care and put a lot of effort in making everything perfect for you. Ryan, the site manager called in the very next day, checking if I have any issues to report as he was more than happy to sort them out for me. But there was nothing to report, the house was impeccable! Such a great experience and such lovely people to deal with!

We have just moved into our first new home we have bought the experience from start to finish has been impeccable, Brett kept up updated all the way and always updated us on anything and was so easy to contact. Brett also welcomed up at the property with a hamper which was lovely and a bow on our door which made the experience more amazing. Since we moved in Brett has checked on us. We also had Ryan checking in and seeing how everything is and will get our snagging bits sorted next week. So amazing experience.

Thank you

We reserved our plot with what was Kier living, now Tilia Homes, back in august 2020, we are first time buyers and did not have much knowledge of home buying, we have been guided through the whole process and have had no issues at all. We moved into our house this week and the staff on site have been nothing but helpful, the service we have received is far higher than we could ever have hoped. Anita, Guy, Keith and the team have been absolutely brilliant in helping us settle in, checking on us regularly and offering any services that we may need. Thank you to all of the team at the Teign View site for all your help.

I want to thank Brett the salesman for the Briaredale site. He was very helpful and supportive of me throughout the process. Contacting Estate agents and solicitors. Getting answers when I was struggling. Reassuring me when I was afraid I would loose my house. I think me and my neighbours see him as a friend. I love the house. The layout. The flat garden the parking. The small issues were sorted quickly, the doors are taking a bit longer.

The only credit to Tilia is Rafal Buzuk. He is really great at his work and sees to it that he gets to the end of every task assigned to him to the very best. Rafal is a great asset to Tilia.On the other hand I still don't understand why till date our streets and pavements are still hanging unattended.

Bathroom defects

Stewart Sellers came to fix defects within my bathroom. The first thing he did was introduce himself and also ask my name. He explained what he was going to do before starting anything. He was warm and welcome with a friendly nature.

Sound knowledge and excellent advice

Whilst I am still in the process of moving, Julian Long has been an exceptional support and a font of knowledge, without whom I would still be struggling to move. Trying to navigate the difficult market conditions that currently dictate house sales and purchases, his experience and guidance has proved invaluable. You have an excellent advisor there Tilia Homes

This review is for Brian Aldridge

This review is for Brian Aldridge. Brian was excellent when coming to fix some snags (that were 2 years old, partly due to covid and also due to Kier and their poor customer service). Brian was really helpful and did over and above with regard to fixing my snags and ensuring I wasn't left with outstanding issues. He was also a pleasure to have around, friendly, polite, respectful and just quite frankly fab!

lack of customer care and zero progress

If your new home has no major issues, buying from Tilia might be fine. But if anything goes wrong, be prepared for years of chasing. We’ve had a leak in our dormer since the day we moved in, and two years later I’m still following up every single week.

We have just moved into our first home in June. Brett is very helpful and kind. He always answer my emails and explain everything. Completion day was one day earlier than I expected. After first day at my new home I met Ryan. He checked is everything fine, so I really appreciate that He cares much about our home. I am very happy that I had the chance to meet them. Thank you again 😊

Customers pay the cost of Tilia's Mistakes

I purchased my home in December 2021, it was meant to be a dream home for my family but has been a nightmare!Tilia are shoddy cowboy builders who do not care about the quality of the build and the regulations! My home was thrown up, the brickwork and roof are way below standard there is lots of mistakes all over. Tilia has not been remorseful or professionally taken responsibility even knowing I was former bricklayer and had a friend who was a ex site agent for Tilia (he left due to Tilia's incompetence and stressful environment). Tilia's Customer care in particular Lee Goodman the Westmidlands customer care manager has been uncooperative from the start when we raised our major brickwork and roof issues! They have made it very difficult to get my home issues resolved and are still 2 years down the line trying to get out of it, and leave me to foot the bill for their negligence on the build. Even down to the smaller simple resolutions I.e radiator caps, doors cut too short and non fire compliant, shower tray replacement in 2 bathrooms took 18 months leaving us without a shower in the ensuites! Tilia dragged the issues on and hoped we would give up. To shut me up and get rid of me Tilia offered £20k instead of them completing any repairs or replacements which were needed I.e. brickwork, roof, replacement front/backdoor etc. This shows Tilia knows their build was way below standard but that wouldn't even make a dent in all the stuff which needs to be done internally and externally (roof alone was £16k). Every case I have raised with NHBC has gone in my favour but this is a time consuming process and should not have to go this far to resolve issues they have responsibility for! The NHBC have also made mistakes on my home by allowing my home to pass CML when there are broken regulations which exceed the tolerances within my home.Looking through all these reviews shows me that am not alone in the substandard build quality and diabolical customer service Tilia are providing! To get a look at the real Tilia quality come and view my home:4 Ferrers Drive, Grendon, CV9 2RU I have instructed a solicitor to finally get my home to the correct standard!

The Oaks

We have just reserved a plot at The Oaks in Plymouth and I can’t emphasise enough how brilliant and supportive Julian Long has been. He provided us with all the information we needed as first time buyers and is always just one email away. An excellent experience so far and we are really excited about moving in to our new Tilia home this spring.Thankyou to Julian Long and his team :-)

My son was buying his first home and Richard the sales Manager at sycamore Park was brilliant with him and spent time and explained the house buying process and extra he could have. In the last few months when we visited the site Cameron the site manager went above and Beyond to make sure my son was happy with everything.Great service and thanks to all staff who worked on this project

Early impression that truly impress

Great customer service is at the heart of Tilia Homes’ offering, and it’s being delivered with excellence by Paige Fradgley, our customer service advisor at the Kingsway Manor Site. Although we’re still in the mortgage stage, the journey so far has been nothing short of reassuring, built on honesty, genuine care, and open ears.

Avoid!

Avoid! There is nothing good as the company is avoiding finishing the snag list after taking over Kier Living. For 2 years I am waiting and chasing. Nothing. The case is sent to proper units.They are not professional it is a kinder garden.Any correspondence, agreement ask them to give you on paper. Also, before you move in get someone to check your home for all snagging!

Stewart Sellers

Stewart Sellers came to fix some of our snags this morning. After 3 long years of chasing the customer service team, Stewart has turned most of my negative views around. He decorated, filled in holes and re sealed our flooring downstairs. Amazing work! Amazing attitude! Thank you so much Stewart a real asset to the company.
