Our experience so far with Gleeson Homes

Me and my partner are currently in the process of getting our first home. Gleeson Homes are amazing! Especially Jon at Squirrel Fold who has gone above and beyond for us! Jon managed to push for our plot to be released as an early bird option and he has taken his time to explain absolutely everything about our plot and what is included in our new home. We look forward to our journey with Gleeson Homes and cannot wait to see our new home being built and completed.

Good company

We have had a quite a few issues since we moved in July 2022 at plot 56. Our cooker hood wasn't working properly. Eventually, we had to get someone not from Gleesons to fix it and straighten it out, because the customer care team were ignoring us. Also, we had issues with our front door, where we still had a gap underneath. Now, fair enough, Gleesons sorted that out. We are still having issues with sorting our timers for our central heating, but gleesons care team still haven't sent someone round to sort it.In all fairness, they are only getting 5 stars, is because of the sales team. There has been one lovely lady who has done so much for is and that is Deborah who works on the sales side. She has been so helpful and wonderful from the beginning

Jackie over at Acklam Gardens was so friendly. She put me at ease straight away, she was approachable and knowledgable, offering advice without being pushy. I felt like I was on this exciting journey with Jackie guiding me through the experience. She made me feel like I was more than just a potential customer. I felt like I was a valued friend.Thank you Jackie!! You are a credit to Gleeson @ Acklam Gardens

Sophie was our sales representative at Bushwood Gardens she is so lovely kind and extremely helpful she had so much patience with us, we were back and forth for months deciding which style house we preferred and what plot was best for us during these months of deliberation Sophie always made us feel welcome and never rushed. When we came to the completion day Sophie gave us lovely welcome gifts which were such a lovely gesture and again any questions after move in were always swiftly answered and guided us in the right direction of the answer we were looking for. Sophie is a great asset to Gleesons.

Disappointing Build Quality and Aftercare on a New-Build Home

We recently moved into our new-build property and, unfortunately, our experience so far has been disappointing. Within the first few weeks, we started reporting multiple snagging and cracking issues around door frames, window seals, walls, stairs, handrails, and other finishing areas. Several of these concerns were either declined or dismissed as normal shrinkage despite the property being brand new.

Seamless Journey to owning our home (Dane Park)

Getting a mortgage offer within a week doesn’t sound realistic but with the help of God and Leanne, this was made possible. Leanne made me realize that business is not all about making profits but rather customer satisfaction. She kept on following up till we moved in and ensured we had our Christmas celebration in our new home. We got the perfect home for, thanks to Leanne. She was very pro active, attentive and prioritized our maximum satisfaction by offering us choices

Shelly and Sue were amazing at Rhodes Point in Worksop.We originally rang to see if we could have a look round one of the houses we’re interested in and came out with so much information!Shelly was knowledgeable and gave us all the information we needed to make our decision. We are so grateful for both ladies at this development. We felt welcomed and valued when entering the office.Sue showed us a house and showed us all the features- a true professional.Thank you both so much for your help. We look forward to starting our Gleeson journey!!Laura & Corey

Thank you Leanne .

The Sales agent whom we dealt with was very helpful, she supplied all information on our first visit and happily showed us around the show homes. From Day 1 when we went to inquire till when we moved in few months after, she was very helpful. Leanne was a major source of encouragement, she is always available to listen, very friendly and has positive altitude. She believed in us and was a great motivation to us, always breaking the good news to us. She helped us in a great way in making this dream possible .Thank you Leanne .

Our experience

My partner and I found Gleeson after looking at multiple developments, nowhere offered what we were looking for apart from Gleeson where we've purchased a beautiful 4 bedroomed home in December. The service we have received from Sales Executive Leanne Leighton has been second to none, guiding us through every part of the process, no question was too stupid and no request was any bother, even after completing the sale, an absolute credit to this company who are very lucky to have her. The workmen on site have looked after us well, especially Mark and Ian, completing any snags found there and then, or any manufacturer faults reported, we are very happy homeowners!

Only good things to say about this house builder..

Brilliant company to deal with and to purchase a New Build house from.We first arrived at the Meadowcroft development in Winterton, North Lincolnshire the day after visiting a competitor’s development, unfortunately we had left the competitor development with a less than positive feeling.Thankfully at Meadowcroft we got this amazing fuzzy feeling, and a positive vibe that this was going to work from the start, this was only a few minutes after walking through the door at the sales office, then after seeing the houses on offer the positive vibes and discussions with the salesperson continued.As we were going for a part exchange, we had to wait for an evaluation and offer from the Gleeson PX company for our existing home before we could do anything, however we still got a feeling for the houses available on the development on that first meeting and went home with some ideas on what we would go for.Less than 2 weeks later we had our PX offer and we were back at the development to see what was available, we traded up on what we had initially thought we would go for and paid a deposit.Around 8 weeks later we were in our new home, and that happened to be just the start of understanding how good the onsite team really were, 2 snags both dealt with quick and efficiently (logged through the mygleeson site), nothing too much trouble, and other than normal shrinkage gaps no major issues, great quality build with good quality fixtures and fittings.We have had visitors who have had houses built for them and they commented on how good the work was, quality of plaster work etc. as well as the quality of fixtures and fittings and appliance used in the fitted kitchen.Every one of the team that we have encountered are polite and great to deal with. For a few weeks just before Christmas we were right in the thick of the building work being the only finished house at that end of the development, you wouldn’t have known, I was working from home and the building team were extremely respectful, you didn’t really know they were there working on the other houses.Kudos to everyone that I have met and had the pleasure of interacting with, special mention to:Cayne the snaggerChris the joinerAndy in Customer CareSimon the forklift driverScott, Assistant Site Manager (for always keeping me informed)Richard, Site ManagerJill in sales (especially for going above and beyond on handover day and keeping us warm until funds were transferred on what was a rotten day weather wise)You won’t find a nicer group of people anywhere, trust me!We love our new house, our only regret was that we didn’t get to look at the 4 bed showhouse on the initial visit, if we had we would have stretched ourselves for one of the 4 bed houses, that’s our own fault as we had a 3 bed in mind from the beginning, however if Jill was our sales person from the start we probably would have ended up with a 4 bed.Here's hoping this positive review of our experience of buying from Gleeson and living in the property for 7 weeks helps prospective buyers, and doesn’t bite me on the backside later on, and here’s hoping for the next few years of trouble free home ownership!

Lovely helpful staff

I would like to say a big thank you to the staff at Middlestone Meadows development. The sales representative, Jackie, was fantastic from beginning to end; without her, I doubt I would have moved forward with purchasing my first home here. She is a valuable asset to Gleeson Homes and is always willing to help! Another sales representative named Deena is also very kind and supportive! I'm overjoyed that Gleeson Homes helped me purchase my first house. Although the house came with some defects, the Site Manager Dave was and still is really helpful in fixing them to ensure my home looks just how I expect it to. I will report a defect and within 1 to 2 days, someone will pop over to help fix the problem. Thank you Gleeson.

I had a fantastic experience overall

I had a fantastic experience overall , on completion I had a hand over with Scott Isle who has kept in touch & helped with any snags and issues . He has answered my queries timely and really gone the extra mile to make my move painless . I really appreciated the help . In fact all the staff on site have been remarkable . I would never have bought a new build but it suited my current needs so I would again .I would point out the drive isn’t finished and o can’t use it due to the car I drive and little things such as the lino being easily marked ( thin) and the bath tiles only tiled a couple rows above the bath so the wall is already wet and I am paying for my bathroom to be retiled but the house was complete when purchased so there wasn’t any choice and I was surprised the garage didn’t come with electrics . That said the house is lovely for me and as I said the customer service from Scott and his team has been exceptional

Rainsborough Park

I have given an overal review of my customer experience of 5 stars, based on all staff I have interacted with, especially Sharon Binns who's "can do " attitude and nothing is too much trouble resonated with us, especially as she fought hard to get us the ceramic flooring we wanted. Neil Whitford, a true professional, who goes the extra mile and is in constant contact with me, to ensure any issues/snags we have are taken care of swiftly. I totally accept that new builds have snags and I will revisit this review at a later date (we have only been In a month) with an update to see if everything has been taken care of to our satisfaction. So far overall, all staff strive for customer satisfaction, which is far derived from all the negative comments about Gleeson homes.

Rainsborough Park, Knottingley

Been amazing from start to finish, had a few small snags once moved in and all has been sorted within a timely manner. Couldn’t be happier with my new home and I trust that should anything come up they will be on hand to help sort it.Sharon and Josh kept in touch throughout, from sale to completion.The site manager was fabulous, only met him at site when we were viewing the property being built but he was able to answer any questions I had and since moving in if we have needed anything, even down to a tin of paint for a few marks we made moving in they have been straight round. I have had multiple phone calls since moving in to make sure we are settled in and checking if we have anything that needs checking or snagging. I can’t fault the build it’s perfect! So so pleased with our new home.Thank you to the wonderful team at Rainsborough Park, Knottingley

Tyrone three bed Gleeson home

From reservation, Mary George, Sales Executive was amazing. The journey of buying my lovely Gleeson home was faultless, and I was made to feel very special. When I got the keys to my Tyrone, and viewed it complete, I was do happy with the quality, customer service, and site team, mentioning Ian Storrie, Site Manager, and Chris Large who was the assistant at the time. I absolutely love my house, it is so cheap to run, I had a small number of defects, which were dealt with and fixed in a timely manner. I love the area I live in, the best move I have ever made. I cannot recommend a Gleeson home enough.. Julia

Buying our first Gleeson Home

The process of buying our first Gleeson home couldn’t have been made easier by the Sales Executive Sophie Murray. As we were first time buyers, Sophie Explained everything in detail and was always available if we needed any questions answered. Her communication throughout was excellent. Sophie’s attention to detail made our experience so personal and special.We can’t thank Sophie enough for her support and hard work. The site manager Nick of Brushwood Gardens has been so helpful in getting all our defects sorted. Overall we are so happy with our Gleeson home and would definitely recommend to other buyers.

First time buyers

As first time buyers we looked around many different organisations and found the show homes at Wragby and customer service with Scott (Sales Executive) the best. In Dec 2023 we moved into our new build at Hawthorn Fields, Wragby. Scott was fantastic with communication, support and advice and made the process seamless. Upon hand over we had a thorough walk through and we were pleased with the result. A year on and Scott is still on site, happy to offer support and help with questions. Scott is an asset to the Gleeson team and we would 100% recommend this process.

I’ve given 1 star only because can’t give zero stars.

Pinfold park Bridlington. I’ve given 1 star. Only because you have to give something to do this review. Gleeson are the worst company. Their customer service is disgraceful. They make out when trying to sell yu a property that they are here to help. At first they came to fix there mistakes and the people on the ground the real grafters are great. It’s the customer service and management. They are happy now that money is in the bank. I’ve been trying for months to get a problem resolved that is an oversight by them but they are saying it’s something I did but this is not the case. It’s a simple thing to resolve that is part of the warranty but customer care if yu can call them that and management are not abiding by the warranty. Which is absolutely unacceptable. We only want what’s right. Which is what they say to yu before yu buy but this is not the case on there part. Disgusting attitude from this company. Reading most of the reviews I’m obviously not the only one. Do not buy from Gleeson. I wish I had never bothered.plot 87. Typical. This just proves that Gleeson are a bad company. Hence my original post. Do not buy of this conning company.

Middlestone Meadows Durham

So far so good - this will be our first time purchasing a new build, so as you can imagine we were filled with trepidation. However, Jackie, Dina & Nicola have been amazing, especially Jackie, talking and guiding us through the process making us feel more happy & confident with moving forward with the purchase. The sales team are an absolute credit to Gleesons and I hope the rest of the process will be as professional & caring - watch this space.

Plot 68 - hawthorn fields

From the outset Scott in the sales office was brilliant, he explained the whole process in good detail, he let us know when he was on holidays and who to contact in his absence, we got delayed due to our house sale falling through and Scott was so helpful in keeping the house we had reserved for us even though we were about five months behind our original schedule. Can’t thank Scott enough. The handover with Scott and Dave (site manager) was also done with ease. We have no plans on moving again anytime soon and would not hesitate to recommend Gleeson homes

Squirrel fold- amazing staff

We are looking at purchasing a property at squirrel fold in Bradford. We currently live in a new build which we need to sell. Jon has been dealing with us the whole time, and he is fantastic, he has been supportive throughout the whole process, he has pointed us in the right direction and is now helping to sell our current house. He goes out of his way to care for his customers and adds that personal touch, he is always asking how we are and asking about our little boy. He is now taking and sorting the sale of our current house to make it a smooth transition for us to buy our new home.This also reflects on all the staff at squirrel fold.

The Green

I have been to the green where I booked an appointment and Mary could see us straight away which was great, she was extremely helpful and understanding. We were still unsure due to personal commitment's but months later we got a call from her speaking about shared ownership plots at her new development. Mary had listened and understood our needs and I was extremely impressed to know she still thought about us months later. Thank you Mary!!

Rhodes Point

Shout out to Shelly & Sue in the office and Colin the Ass.site manager.Have had a great experience during my correspondence with Shelly and Sue. Very informative and supportive from the first day of inquiry, during application process and right to the completion day. They have made adjustments for me on days I was not able to visit, they are understanding of the situations that may arise and make changes according to that for my ease.The project and vision was explained throughout the application and on completion day, had my questions answered in a timely manner. Colin is great, the home demonstration was detailed and consoled me on the concerns i had while checking out my property. He also stated that they will be present for any help needed for the future should an issue arise (though highly doubt there will be any problems).There is much support from the team here at Rhodes Point and can't recommend it enough.Thank you to the team!
