Helpful customer service

Erin at Dundas was extremely helpful today. I've been in my Dundas house for 6 years now and had a small leak in bathroom, I contacted Erin to ask if they would still have the same skirting, she quickly found the correct type and advised where I could source a piece.

Excellent service

Answering on behalf of my Mum, Helen Graham who does not have WIFI or an email account! From the moment I decided to contact Dundas (The Wireworks, Musselburgh) I have found the service to be absolutely fantastic. Shereen (sales) was so informative, kind, patient and incredibly helpful from the moment I made contact with her. Nothing was too much trouble and she answered every question or query I had, with patience and understanding. I moved in on 7th March and to date, my experience has been nothing but positive. Also to mention Jim (site manager) who has been an absolute treasure. Again, nothing was too much trouble for him either, patiently explaining how everything works inside my new flat, which I just absolutely love. The only downside for me is the placement of my parking spot which, due to my limited mobility, is quite a walk from my front door. Other than that, I cannot thank the team at Dundas enough and are to be highly commended.

Richy - an absolute legend

As with all new builds, we've had a few snagging issues to get sorted. Richy on site at Dargavel is an absolute gem - genuinely feel like if all Assistant Site Managers were more like him, the new build industry would have a much better reputation. Just a really lovely guy who wants to do right by new homeowners.

While we felt we were handed over to Customer care a bit too early, Erin in Customer Care has been really quick to respond to anything we've raised. She's obviously not in control of how quickly subcontractors attend, but we're happy knowing that Erin is doing all she can to get it done.

1 star off for a bit of overpromising and underdelivering by Management in the run up to moving in (but Laura in sales has been lovely).

New buyer

When finally chosing which house was our forever home after Debbie kindly showed us a range of different layouts.
Nothing was a bother after this answering many a questions we had and guiding us on the right pathway for chosing the interior of our home.
Even still Debbie is a helping hand and it's nice to have a friendly face on site to answer questions we have still feeling like newbies.
Would recommend the sale of dundas to others. Over all a pleasant experience

This review is for poor customer service at The Wireworks Musselburgh

This review is for poor customer service. I feel it is a disservice to the public to NOT share.
From 8/1/25 to 30/1/25 I was without heat or hot water due to faulty boiler - due to misinformation and couldn't care less attitude from the top John Croal to the team on the ground .
I have never experienced such an arrogant regard to customer service . Thanks to Malcolm McArthur and Son it was eventually resolved. During this time weather exceeded lows of -8 which the team were aware of.
After several escalations I sought to speak directly to the MD of Dundas ....still waiting.
It would appear EVERY boiler may be faulty in the entire Wireworks estate something they wish to keep quiet.
I wouldn't wish this customer care team on my worst enemy.

Fantastic Service!

I contacted Erin in the Customer Care team on two separate occasions, both times I received fantastic service. Erin was very friendly, helpful and accommodating, she kept me updated frequently and dealt with my issues quickly and professionally. Thank you!

Excellent Customer Care

We moved into our new home in early November 2024. Like any new property, there’s a settling-in period where some issues (snagging) might need attention. Thankfully, we’ve had very little to address, and the concerns we did raise were resolved promptly and professionally. Erin Hearne, the Customer Care Coordinator at Dundas Estates, exemplifies everything you’d hope for in managing these situations. Whether contacted by phone, email, or text, she responds quickly and provides a clear path to resolution. Erin handles coordination with contractors for necessary repairs and follows up afterward to ensure everything is in perfect order.

Ask for Gillian @ Dundas Shawfair

Gillian provided outstanding service! She was quick to respond to emails and phone calls, attentive to every detail, and truly understood your needs when looking at new build properties. A true professional who made the experience comfortable and enjoyable.

If looking for a property in Edinburgh region, ask for Gillian at Dundas Shawfair.
