I am buying a new house at Wycke Place, Maldon ...

I am buying an new house at Wycke Place, Maldon and Hayley Brown has been my main point of contact. She is highly competent, well organised, outgoing and an excellent communicator, who develops quality relationships with prospective new home purchasers, which can't always be an easy job! When I walk into the Wycke Place sales office Hayley, along with Rachel and Sean, exude a warm, welcoming atmosphere.My special thanks to Hayley, for the empathy and professionalism she has shown to me. Hayley - there aren't enough stars on Trustpilot to show my personal thanks and to let you know how grateful I am for your help and support. Crest Nicholson - I hope you know what a super team you have at Wycke Place. They know their quality product and sell it well. Thank you.

Siobbhan Shaw

Siobbhan is very welcoming and kind to us especially as first time buyers. We are currently on the process of buying our first home and she is so helpful. Her cheerful and enthusiastic way has completely sold us our home. We are looking forward to moving in soon.

Very Disappointing Aftercare and Unsafe Garden at Hunts Grove

We have now been living in our home at Hunts Grove for 2 months, and despite repeated complaints, we have not received a single proper response from Customer Care at Crest Nicholson regarding our garden issue.

Ackender Hill

We have had such a wonderful experience with CN throughout our purchase. The sales team were very welcoming to us and patient as we had numerous visits to the show home before we paid our deposit. They never put any pressure on us to buy at any stage. We did feel there was a little bit of pressure on us to complete once we'd paid the deposit but we understand there is a rough 28 day period to complete and our house sales took many months to get over the line, which is where our most glowing praise goes....My partner and I sold two properties to purchase our home (1 flat sale and 1 part exchange). The flat sale was a really complicated and stressful process due to recent regulations on flat sales. This threatened to fall through which would have bought the whole transaction to a collapse. This caused us a great deal of anxiety but Danielle Green, our sales progressor, with the help of Jay where wonderful. Danielle would call us weekly for an update and would provide us with constant reassurance that we would not lose the house, even when we were hit with further setbacks, Danielle proved true to her word. She really looked at the human side of the sale rather than the business side and we can't thank her enough. Danielle if you ever read this and are on site, pay us a visit - we'd love to thank you in person!We've now been in our home for two months now and our Assistant Site Manager, Mayur has been equally fantastic. He pays regular visits to us to make sure everything is going well and he'll take any problems away with him and ensure they are fixed in a timely manner. We have recently had a problem with a drip in our boiler. We called the site manager and there was a plumber on our doorstep within 5 minutes. The snagging has been completed to a high standard, including a partial garden redesign as it was not what we were expected.Whilst not CN, the construction team are so friendly and respectful, switching off noisy machinery whilst we walk passed with my children, one of which is Autistic, which meant a great deal to us.Overall I have nothing but praise for everyone who has been involved in our journey to our home. We couldn't be happier.

Wycke place

If only I could add photos! My previous review below was reported! I had to verify as someone… had tried to take it down. However I have all the evidence and not one word I have said is a lie! I’m now blocked from commenting on Crests Facebook page.. why Crest? If you have nothing to hide why try to delete the real reviews? If these reviews are that bad then why do you not help these people and fix these problems? I have countless photos and emails. The amount of chasing I have had todo as well as the NHBC, just to get a reply! Where is the outstanding customer service?! Search mould Crest Nicholson on Facebook and you can see photos and videos of what we have had to go through!

Becky was a joy

Becky was a joy, very friendly and explained everything perfectly. It was lovely to see the empty shell first, then the show home to see it furnished to a high spec. Very joyable experience, and we hope now that we can secure the deal.

Horrendous company to deal with

Horrendous company to deal with. Purchased property on their Monksmoor Park development nearly 5 years ago and the sales team couldn’t do enough and promised the world we were confident that we had made the correct decision to buy - how wrong we were! The sales team lull you into a false sense of security so you take the bait. As soon as we moved in there has been nothing but issue after issue! For the 1st 3 months couldn’t live downstairs due to serious mould issues and when Rainbow International were eventually called in by CN, the internal wall in our kitchen was wetter than a garden retaining wall!!! We had no kitchen for weeks and no living room and a child who had not long been diagnosed with Asthma, and CN didn’t give a monkeys! For the whole period of living in the property we, every 6 weeks or so, have to unblock the drains outside. Despite being told maybe 3 years ago by a drainage company who their groundworkers brought in that there was an issue, CN refused to acknowledge this and told us to go to NHBC as they wouldn’t fix this and some outstanding issues. NHBC sent independent drainage company in, and as soon as he lifted the lid he said there is an issue. However, their ‘highly qualified’ site manager who did the same said there was a blockage and it was domestic waste 😂 couldn’t make it up really! NHBC have offered a settlement for outstanding work and CN have said they’ll sort the drains that run UNDER our house! Their possible solution will ruin any chance of the extension we have plans to put on…Stay away from Crest Nicholson, many people save for years to be able to buy their property and these cowboys take your money and literally run! They will basically call you a liar despite having a paper trail of emails detailing everything and wash their hands of you. They sold us a house that wasn’t fit for purpose and there is plenty of people out there who have also been treat this way after not accepting an inadequate house. There is a number of properties on this development alone that have has serious issues with their houses and then with getting CN to actually resolve them! Save money, tears and heartache and buy from a small developer who actually care about what they sell.*in response to Crests automatic response of not being able to resolve issues - you haven’t resolved issues in the last 5 years! You blatantly ignore emails & phone calls, we have a paper trail that’s beyond a joke! You’ve refused to fix work from original snag list 4.5 years ago despite agreements to do so, your site team lie along with your customer service department!

Great but could be excellent...

This was my second purchase from Crest Nicholson. I dealt with Christine who sold me my previous flat. Both times, Chris was amazing, she made the experience of buying a new build really easy and seamless. I was kept informed at all times about the progress of the build, I never had to chase her for updates or information. Questions and queries were answered promptly and honestly. She's always very professional, friendly and personable.As for the building itself, I've only been living in the house for a month and so far it's OK. Soundproofing between floors and attached house is not very good and so it sounds like everyone and everything is very loud. Some of the finishing materials are rather on the cheap and basic side and the energy ratings of the white goods are terrible. The quality of the finish was spectacular in my first property and it's just average in this house. I wish they had more options to choose from for those who may want a higher end finish as this is common practice with a lot of other house builders. On the plus side, the house is very warm and well insulated, it also looks really nice on the outside. The garage is a very generous size and the drive is big enough for 3 average size cars. The space inside is generally well designed especially the kitchen/dining space. There is a lot of storage space on all three floors and room sizes are pretty good for a new build. So far, all the issues we've raised as being urgent, have been dealt with quickly and that's been great. So on the whole, it's been a very good experience.

Hazel and Lauren were absolutely brilliant. They made us feel welcome as soon as we arrived for our appointment. They were very knowledgeable and any question we asked, even if they didn’t know the answer, they sent emails to get us a response, all of which were dealt with before we left. They were both personable and made the experience comfortable. This meant a lot to us, as we previously had a really negative experience with another building company.

Consistent communication from starting a job to finishing the job in hand. Outstanding service and we couldn't have wished for a better two individuals to carry us through our new home journey. Craig and Gemma are an absolute credit to Crest Nicholson.

I am happy with the service provided by Elizabeth Soar @ Kegworth Gate site of Crest Nicholson. Liz was very helpful and friendly all the time from first going to site for formal viewing, communicated well with all the requirements and matching home with different types of houses built there.Always smiling and go one more mile to help for any question we ask to her. The site is located on very good location near the M1 junction 24 & very near to East midlands airport, Sergo East Midlands Gateway Logistics park for easy everyday transit for job(GoGreen). Nottingham University is not far from the location also that was one of the reason I have selected the location itself. Kegworth is very nice small village with good commute to other locations via Bus or your own Car. I can't wait to move once everything ready for me there.

Buying with crest nicholson

I had 2 appointments with Sam at monksmoor park, for firstly the Rowan's and then union place, she was very helpful and friendly and very informative. On my first visit she took me out and showed me what was available and took me inside 2 houses that were nearly complete, then she showed me the available plots, then explained what all the processes were to reserve a house. Which I did the next day, The reservation meeting was thorough and Sam was very patient with me while making my choices, there was no pressure and the experience was enjoyable.

Staff and processes at Crest Nicholson are excellent!

We have recently concluded the purchase of a flat in the Picture House development by Crest Nicholson. The development is located in Redhill next to national rail station. We were very pleased by the professional approach of the company. Their processes are well defined and transparent. Most importantly their staff makes it a memorable experience. I would like to call out Lily Day who was excellent in helping us with the purchase process right from viewing to handover of keys. She has been very polite, professional, knowledgeable and extremely helpful throughout the process. Thanks Lily for all your help.

Lauren was amazing. From popping in for a brochure to our appointment today. She was open and clear and has been a god send as we are first time buyers. This includes the advice and the avenues we can go down. We can’t wait to continue with our purchase with yourself.

Centenary Quay property purchase

I recently purchased an apartment in the centenary quay crest Nicholson development. Safe to say I have been really impressed with their service I have received from crest Nicholson both pre and post purchase. The entire process from offer to competing was done in around four weeks, so it was all sorted very efficiently! There were some snagging points identified during the process and they were all dealt with quickly and without fuss. All my questions have been answered in a full and timely manner.In particular Jan and Maddie from the sales suite at Centenary have been extremely helpful and patient with me! They have even assisted with some items that came up post completion and have just all around provided a great service, very approachable and knowledgable. I would recommend a purchase though Crest who have been great!

First time buyer - woodlands park

After going to look on a whim at a 1 bed flat in woodlands park we were greeted by Janet. Although we had no appointment and she had another booking in 15 minutes she was extremely helpful and took us to view two rooms. I fell in love instantly with the flat. With being a first time buyer I hadn’t a clue what to do next. Janet gave me some advice and passed my information to a mortgage advisor. Since then everything has moved fast and efficient. Everyone I have spoken with at crest has always had a smile and some advice at the ready. Couldn’t recommend Janet and the team more!
