St. Modwen Homes Reviews 

I am a first-time-buyer and from start to finish, this has been a relatively stress-free experience.

Tigan and Caroline, in the sales team, have been outstanding. They have been consistently professional, approachable, and always on hand to help, which made the whole process smooth, and not overwhelming for a first-time buyer. I didn’t feel like any question I had was stupid. Despite their heavy work load, they make you feel like you’re the priority.

The build quality of the home is very impressive. A professional snagging inspection identified 65 items, but the vast majority were minor cosmetic points, which is reassuring for a new build. The build was complimented and described as ‘at a very high standard’.

A special mention to Site Manager Dave, who has been exceptional. Leading up to and post completion, he has been highly responsive, proactive, and quick to resolve any issues raised. His attention to detail and commitment has really stood out. I genuinely feel looked after.

Overall, I’m incredibly happy with my new home. This is clearly a quality development delivered by a team that cares. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

The show home at ember park Middlesbrough is amazing, the sales team really made us feel welcome even though we are not buying for some time thanks again ember park

We had an appointment with Kyle at Snibston Mill on Saturday.

We are looking to purchase a new home in 18/24 months and had been looking at St Modwen developments to try and get a feel for the 4 bed properties.

Kyle replied back quickly and arranged an appointment for us to discuss what we were after.

Kyle took time to show us around a couple of the 4 bed properties that they had at Snibston Mill, which they did not have show homes for.

He was an absolute credit to the company, funny, engaging and listening. Nothing was too much trouble.

He advised us of a couple of properties at a similiar development at Egstow Park and even phoned ahead whilst we were en route to let them know we were coming.

Absolutely fantastic customer service.

Am looking to buy a house ,I've been dealing with Sue ,she is very kind and patient and provided me with all information needed, Sue highly recommended .Thanks

Went spontaneously with no appointment to the Valley Rise development.
Joanne was very welcoming and gave us lots of useful information.
St Modwen seems to really value transparency and high quality build. It was the most engaged and excited we have been when visiting a development!
Now that we have some plots in mind, its just a matter of confirming the finances.

We have recently bought a house on the Bramshall meadows estate from start to finish Kayleigh was always available to help her positive attitude made the buying process 100 time easier and Will doing only his 2nd home demo was brilliant answered every question we had thank you from all at plot 494

As a first-time buyer, I appreciated the professionalism and support from the sales manager Julie Mccarthy. Her guidance, responsiveness, and clear communication made the experience positive and much less stressful.

Branson leas popped in the office got all the information we needed from Caroline and tigan

My experience with St. Modwen Homes West Works has unfortunately been extremely disappointing.

Buying a new home should be an exciting and positive milestone. I entered the process genuinely wanting to purchase a property and looking forward to owning a new home. Unfortunately, the experience became unnecessarily stressful due to unclear communication processes, inconsistent requirements, and repeated delays.

During the early stages of the purchase, I experienced significant difficulties with the administrative and compliance processes. Requirements were not clearly explained from the outset, and information requests appeared to change as the process progressed.

I want to make clear that my concerns are not directed at the sales team. In my experience, the sales team were polite, supportive, and worked hard to try to navigate the situation. However, they appeared to be trying to manage a system where the processes, requirements, and communication from head office functions lacked clarity. This seemed to place both the customer and sales staff in a difficult position.

Rather than having a clear and coordinated process, information often appeared to be passed between teams, creating unnecessary confusion and delays. At times it felt that I was having to chase information, clarify expectations, and help move the process forward myself.

The situation reached the point where I felt it necessary to raise a formal complaint. For someone making such a significant financial and personal commitment, it should never have reached that stage. A customer should not need to make a formal complaint simply to obtain clarity, effective communication, and confidence in the buying process.

Unfortunately, instead of rebuilding my confidence, my later experience reinforced my concerns. When I made the difficult decision to cancel my purchase, the cancellation was acknowledged and I was informed that the process would begin. However, further delays followed, requiring additional chasing before matters progressed.

Again, I want to acknowledge that individual members of the sales team continued to try to help and resolve matters. My concerns relate to the wider systems, head office processes, communication pathways, and lack of clear ownership when issues arose.

Ultimately, the experience affected my confidence to such an extent that I no longer felt comfortable continuing with the purchase. This was not the outcome I wanted when I began the process, and it is disappointing that the customer journey led me to that decision.

Based on my experience, I would be reluctant to purchase a home from St. Modwen Homes/Miller Homes in the future. Trust, transparency, and confidence are essential when buying a home, and unfortunately my experience did not provide these.

We’ve just had SIMON round to sort out a few snags, he was fantastic, so much so we have asked if it can be him to visit on the follow up appt. He works immaculately and the finish is great! We are on Greenway Chase, Leckhampton. Really please, thank you!

Fantastic service by Caroline, service with a smile and gave fantastic advice too. Got all the information we needed and more. Thanks again Caroline!

The entire house buying process was smooth, no stress. Due to the help of the team and marketer (kyle from the coalville branch) he was absolutely helpful and supportive, he supported me every step of the way. Finally when the house was completed, it was in due time, with good mordern and sufficienting quality.

Kyle at Snibston mill st Modwens has been so helpful and genuinely so consistent and supportive throughout the process. He has a genuine care for helping people and keeping you informed every step of the way, a top man who cares abouts his customers and the best person we have dealt with whilst looking for a property by far

“Email forwarded at 4:08 pm 02-Jun-2026. Thanks for your help😀”

We have been living in our St. Modwen home for almost two years now and, overall, we have been very happy with our experience, which is why I am giving a 5-star rating.

As we are approaching the end of the 2-year warranty period, we recently contacted Customer Care regarding a few maintenance items, including some wall cracks, a gutter leak and a couple of installation-related issues. We have provided the relevant information and photographs and are currently waiting to hear back regarding an inspection and repair schedule.

I appreciate that customer service teams can be very busy, and I am sure this is simply an oversight. I would be grateful if someone from the Customer Care team could contact us to arrange the necessary repairs before the warranty period expires.

Thank you, and we look forward to hearing from you soon.

Steve

Kyle is a very good person and he give us the best treatment, his customer services is topnotch. I can’t wait to move in🍷

I wanted to praise Lee Mason, who came to fix my fridge freezer. He did a great job fixing it, including the freezer door which wouldn't shut- other technicians had failed to fix it. Thanks Lee!

Kyle at Snibston mill is amazing.

Never ever lets us down with anything and works so hard to get our house ready for completion.

Mila at Crabhill Kingsgrove, Wantage, St Modwen
I intended to purchase a property on the KingsGrove
estate with StModwen homes. During the process
my personal situation made it difficult to continue
with the assisted move and purchase.
My review then is that Mila was extremely helpful
setting up the assisted move option, which helped me. considerably. Mila is very proficient and knowledgeable, but was also very caring to me, and I am very thankful to her.
