Jordan decorator

Jordan the decorator Williams park….. more like hero can’t fault his workmanship and abilities. He’s such a friendly and polite guy, he made me feel so comfortable having him in my home. A true credit to Lovell. If I was to need any decoration work in the future i will be asking for Jordan again! Thanks

[Resolved] No respect the 14-day cooling off period!

At the beginning, when we were looking for an apartment, every thing was smooth and the staff were helpful. We ended reserving a flat with Lovell on 4th of Feb in 345 Park Place. During the cooling off period, we cancelled the reservation and requested the refund to be processed (which we have legal entitlement for according to the reservation terms and conditions) as we cancelled within the 14 days.It's been over a 45 days now with multiple back and forth. The company is very unresponsive and they keep saying that "they are looking into it".--UPDATE (moved the rating from 1 star to 3 stars)After writing the review, they did get in touch with and resolved the problem very quickly. I have received the refund. Thanks for the help in resolving this.

Beware

My son moved in to this property it obviously hadn't been passed off and was not up to building regulations no hand rail on stairs , couldn’t have passed air test as 2” gap under back door , walls moved not been screwed down . The lads left on site and in the site office are trying there best to sweep up the mess left behind and are taking most of the flack some of it from me for which I apologise the aim of this review is to point out that those at the top are the problem. This sort of treatment wants bringing up in parliament the building companies are atrocious and getting away with murder and that all the true appalling reviews get pushed to the end look at all reviews before proceeding with this company .

Excellent service from patient staff

We recently purchased a house from Lovell with the help of sales executive Jade. With impressive patience and delligence, she answered our endless questions in detail despite her busy work. She showed great understanding of our concerns by sharing the experience from other buyers and how they dealt with their problems. On the day when we did our flooring selection, she even reminded us whether we would like to add a towel hanger in our bathroom, which was the item we inquired a few times when she walked us through the showrooms. It just slipped out of our minds during the selection and she was the only one that remembered it. Her passion at work and her genuine attitude towards customers were definitely two of the reasons why we made our final purchase.

The customer service couldn't be poorer…

The customer service couldn't be poorer if they tried. Where to even start with the issues. We where verbally promised at date of reservation and when we exchanged that there qoukd be on road parking available and if they had to do works we would have written warning. Lie. We have 2 cars and a work van which I don't think is unreasonable. Work van needs to remain near the home as partner does call outs through the nights and weekends. I'm also classed as disabled to note. 3 times now I have come home from work to find the pavement missing and road parking on the 3 closest streets also blocked. This is with 0 notice. They are incredibly belittling to young women. I was 21 when we bought this house and multiple lovell contractors have asked for my mum to sign since she's the owner. Nope it's mine. No one listens and only speaks to my partner. Again only contact him around coming to fix snags yet its my schedule they will be working around. On top if expecting us to be home 24/7 and they can come when ever. Many snags ans lies through this process. You'll only have a 20cm gradient in the garden however it's got more dips and bumps then tubbyland which is great for myself being disabled so cannot use the garden. Regularly ignored and responses taking weeks, customer service phone line are rude and unhelpful. We had a major water leak which left water coming out of our fuse box, they wanted to only send a sparky. No we needed a plumber and a sparky. Could go on and on and on but just don't buy a lovell home. Don't waste your time

Be cautious when dealing with these…

Be cautious when dealing with these housing developers, they’re only interested in your money and show no regard for customer service or aftercare.I purchased a shared ownership property in August 2024 through Platform Housing, and as a first-time buyer, I admit I was naïve. However, the audacity of these developers is beyond belief. On initial inspection, everything seemed fine, but the real problems emerged after moving in:1.Drainage Issues: Every time the toilet is flushed, the pipes make an incredibly loud clanging noise. Despite having someone inspect it, I was told it’s a manufacturer issue with the toilets, so they refused to fix it.2.Poor Flooring: In the master bedroom, there’s a large square cutout in the floorboards, clearly a quick fix by the builders for some reason. This has resulted in creaky floorboards, which wasn’t noticeable during inspection but became apparent once the furniture was in place.3.Damaged Pavement: There are cracked and poorly repaired tiles and bricks on the pavement.4.Missing kitchen cupboards. The exact replica of my home is opposite and the neighbours kindly allowed me to check out their new home. It was then I realised that the cowboys forgot or consciously did not complete the kitchen installation. I chased and chased and they finally agreed to install these however they installed them incorrectly and do not align with the rest of the kitchen cupboards.5.Heating and Boiler Problems: While these have finally been fixed, it took months of chasing for anyone to take action.Since August, I’ve been trying to get these issues resolved, but nobody has taken responsibility. I’ve been passed from one person to another with no apology or acknowledgment of their failures. I am completely exhausted by this ongoing nightmare.If I could go back, I would avoid Lovell Homes at all costs. A friend of mine with a large social media following has kindly agreed to raise awareness about these substandard practices to warn others about their “cowboy” approach to building homes. I urge you to save your money and buy elsewhere.

Unfortunately nothing went too right…

Unfortunately nothing went too right once we had had our offers accepted (purchasing multiple properties).From the sales side, it's disorganised, hard to get hold of anyone, paperwork missing or not provided. Customer service is a shambles which wouldn't matter so much except for the large amount of "snags" that we have experienced across 8 plots. The Site manager who I was told by others on site is new and learning makes nothing happen and so we are chasing snags for months. I've been made to feel like I'm a inconvenience for raising issues that just shouldn't happen in the first place.These have been a great investment for us so it's a real shame that we have had such a bad experience and would therefore not recommend buying through Lovell's. A positive - the houses themselves, once snags are done, have good curb appeal, good layouts and make lovely homes. Also, Blossomfields as an actual site is a great location.

Sandwell homes contracted Lovell who contracted sycamore windows who fitted windows non compliant to building regs. Self certified Fensa. Another window company, builders have said the windows shouldn’t have been fitted without a lintel assessment and lintel replacement. Nobody has any pre installation survey reports. No evidence to say works done is building compliant. Lovell no records. Council blaming Lovell. Say no records. Sycamore Fensa certified blaming Lovell. So all of them passing me onto each other for non existent records. So bad practice no record keeping and even worse breach of building regulations. I’m left with huge bill to rectify their error to replace lintels, bricks, render and internal plaster etc. They are all to blame.

TELBURN WAY SCOTLAND!!! Utter shambles of a company

Utter shambles of a company. Customer care is non existent. Multiple members of staff have given me incorrect information. I am due to complete next week still have no idea if I’m getting my house or not. Works still ongoing. Road outside isn’t even laid. Have been told it isn’t safe to do a home demo until the day we get our keys. They will not send me pictures of inside. Have been advised that the painting will be finished this weekend however I still don’t have a kitchen sink or taps? Dread to think what my property looks like inside. CML/Habitation isn’t getting done till the day before handover making it impossible for my solicitor to get funds from my lender. Lovell homes are setting me up to fail. This full experience of buying my first home has been ruined by the lack of service from Lovell Homes. Clearly taking FTB for a f****** ride! Somehow I was booked in for a home demo 25th November, turn up to be told they have no hard hats so can’t let me in. HOW EMBARRASSING FOR LOVELL?! actual laughable the amount of incompetent staff work for Lovell Scotland

5* builder more like 1*

Been in the property 8 months and we still have issues outstanding from when we moved in. Build quality absolutley shocking. We were left with a hole in our downstairs toilet wall for 6 months as they laid flooring over the waste pipe which was sitting above level, causing a lump, they tried to cut the waste pipe to level the floor and there was subsequently a leak. They still havent bothered to fix it and have offered to hide it as they cant be bothered to do the job properly. We also have issues accessing and leaving our house as the door gets jammed, our fridge is bent, there is paint splatters left all over the kitchen side which we can't get off, they have mismeasured the boxed off area around the stairs which means the lounge door won't open fully, instead of fixing the problem they came round with a doorstop, our lounge door hits the door frame, there are knocking noises any time the taps are on in the upstairs bathrooms, our windows get jammed, We have no fence in our rear garden and should of had hedging to screen the property at the rear, they put twigs in. All properties on this development should of had a shed/bike storage installed as per the plans they submitted to the council, they haven't bothered and as such we've had to submit a breach of planning. Oh and our patio floods. Avoid at all costs.

This is our first brand new house and we where really looking forward to moving on to the sycamores Kirkella, overall our experience has been great, we’ve not had many snags and most have been rectified really quickly apart from one , we’ve got some metal fencing that is supposed to be in the front garden but it’s been sat in my back garden for 6 months!! Apparently waiting for posts which are delayed, I have a friend in hull who could have manufactured the posts in approximately 1 week , please could you sort out before Christmas, I would like to add that Sharon in sales office and Kieron site manager are a credit to your company, would love to give 5 stars if possible, UPDATE , great response from Lovell, had the new fencing put up today after only 3 days from review!! Great work guys

Terrible experience - not worth 1 star

We reserved a plot at Weston Woods, a show home that was not only complete and was furnished. We were pressured to exchange contracts early or the house would be placed back on the market. We in turn encouraged our buyers to exchange quickly. When the exchange day came Lovell would not give a completion date. They then bumbled about for weeks giving excuses and letting us know everything was alright. Our buyers got sick of waiting and pulled out and we lost the house because of Lovells incompetence.Cost us several thousand in legal fees searches etcAvoid like the plagueWe lost our sale because of the ineptitude of Lovell.We were given a date for completion and when we came to exchange they would not give a completion date. Their poor communication cost us our buyer

plumbing leaking

Today My downstairs toilet ceiling started leaking.It seems not a small problem，You have cut two holes in the ceiling of my living room to fix the pipe inside, the plumber who repaired said that the pipe inside was not tightened by the builder before, and now damp patches on toilet ceiling, just moved into our new house in May .The brand new house, the water pipes in the walls are all leaking, Please do a thorough inspection of the quality of the interior of the house!I’m afraid our house has many hidden problems.

Terrible service

Terrible service! Once they have your money they take forever to rectify any issues or even more concerning is they try to cover it up. From the start Lovell Left our house with over two hundred snags and said it had been snagged which was not the case. Lovell left our rear garden with building rubble which included broken bricks, roof tiles, broken peices of ceramic tiles, nails, cement and clay.We have had several landscapers in who refuse to lay lawn on the clay and building rubble which Lovell tried to tell us is top soil. They eventually admitted there was building rubble and removed the rubble from some parts of our rear garden six months later. However the clay and rubble mixed in it still remains.The condition of our front garden was better than the rear and they did remove the rubble and clay from the front and replaced it with top soil. However due to the fact they can't get a digger in the rear garden they want to do short cuts. We are still waiting almost a year on for our top soil in our rear garden so we can have a lawn. We have young children and this was meant to be a family house with a nice garden for them to enjoy and play in. Instead our children can't understand why Lovell have made them wait so long to try to get our garden sorted out. They have been injured by the rubble left in our garden, Lovell simply don't care. We have had to resort to using our front garden which with a toddler and cars not very practical.

First impressin

William park gives a great homely feeling. Its clear visually that houses are well built and speaking to a couple of residents, I felt that they were satisfied with the purchase. I also feel that houses are reasonably priced. Unlike old properties - new bulit are not going to be cheaper to buy first time due to the rising cost of building houses. Sales team is very helpful and friendly. I look forward to have the finished product.
