George Wimpey Reviews

We have bought 2 George wimpy homes within the last 3 years, we bought a 3 bed semi which we lived in for 8 months then sold, to buy a 4 bed semi in a culdi sac further up the street, all the "site agent" was interested in was us completing his customer survey form within days of moving in so he could achieve his bonus, the man ...  Read the complete review

We purchased our Taylor Wimpey (Glastonbury) home in February when they were only foundations. We moved in August. The solicitors they recommended where typical west country, laid back and slow, however, our purchase was not delayed. I do recommend you get a different solicitor when you 'sell' your old home (would be ...  Read the complete review

Bought our house, in 2006, after a LOT of consideration and re-assurance from Wimpey sales staff. Once in our house (and after the 28 day snagging list period) Wimpey were not interested in any of our concerns. Ill fitting windows, door mechanisms breaking, faulty bathroom taps causing flooding downstairs, ill fitting doors and most recen

Buying the house It was around July/August of 2006 when my wife and I went out to look for our first home together. We were both set on a new build house and so whenever we were driving round and saw one of those little yellow development signs we were drawn in like moths to a flame. Anyway, we'd done our research on the ...  Read the complete review

I bought my 2nd Wimpey home just over 2 years ago - the first house was great - this one has now had 4 leaks the last being nearly 6 months ago which caused extensive damage to kitchen floor, cloakroom, hallways and everything in the understairs cupboard was flooded. Although water was flooding down the walls not check was made of the ele

My partner and I bought our 1st and so far only George Wimpey houe in July 2003. A 4 bed detached house with a fair amount of land and we ticked most of the extra's boxes when it can to kitting out the interior. This was to be our very first brand new house purchase so excitement levels were high. We had opted for wooden ...  Read the complete review

We have had one of the worst experience with George Wimpey developments in North Manchester. While we were away for a week in London, there was a water leak in the first floor bathroom. There was water all over on the first and ground floor. Carpets had to be removed, new carpets fitted in, bathroom tiles refitted, repainting... but we ...  Read the complete review

I think George Wimpey are FAB!! I bought an appartment from their 'Bilton Court' development in Rugby in 2005 and they were helpful, experienced, professional and basically could not do enough for me. The site manager Neal Edwards even came to my assistance on a sunday morning! How many people would do that!?! Even now, two years on ...  Read the complete review

I would just like to congratulate George Wimpey on producing a fantastic house and keeping their promise of 'Delivering my dream home!' I bought a four bedroom house from the builder in june 2007 on the Parklands development in Woburn Sands, Bedfordshire. And have been thrilled with the level of after care recieved from the site ...  Read the complete review

Sales team are usually excellent - after your cash. After that it all goes very wrong. Simply avoid these jokers people, life is just too short to waste on companies like this. My experience? I created a site so you can read it all here - www.wimpeythefacts.co.uk The worst experience of customer care and ...  Read the complete review

George Wimpey. A brand name that fills you with a sense of awe - what quality, workmanship, style and pancahe. UNTIL YOU BUY ONE. Do not do it. You only have one life, and it really is not worth the time, effort, tears and disappointment that will inevitably follow. George Wimpey will walk to the moon to sell you a home, and leave you ...  Read the complete review

What is so great about a tower that is merely put up to be maintained by a bunch of dribbling fools who havent the faintest idea of how to deal with a CUSTOMER query or follow up anything remotely related to their job? what is the point??
A third world class rating for customer service and diabolical shoddy build concierge area look

I purchased my very first home in December 2006 from George Wimpey. Being a first time buyer I didn't know what to expect thus was taken in by George Wimpey's sales advisors. I only saw my house once and that was a day before i was due to complete, the sales girl took me round the house and she in fact pointed out some faults with the ...  Read the complete review

Having now owned a new 4 bed George Wimpey home for 16 months I can honestly say there customer care is disgraceful!! The site manager has lied to us from the day we moved in. Our home is still treated like part of the building site with foul mouthed brickies slagging off the workmanship on the exterior walls of our new home ...  Read the complete review

Couldn?t agree more about atrocious after sales service. It?s taken almost 2 years for all our complaints to be resolved, there is no proactivity, no courtesy follow ups, on the part of George Wimpey. Our problems included ·Contract cleaners didn?t carry out any cleaning before we moved in. Our cloakroom was used as a ...  Read the complete review
