A George Wimpey Home
This web page is devoted to a single George Wimpey-built house, which was bought off-plan in 2004.

When one buys a new home, numerous minor problems are to be expected. Such snags are dealt with by the builder once the buyer moves in. It is the responsibility of the homeowner to identify problems and to provide the builder with a snagging list so that corrective work can be carried out. Unfortunately, some 'snags' can be so basic to the construction of the house that they cannot be remedied easily.

GEORGE WIMPEY HOMES Poor Build, Poor Service, Substandard repairs
Our experience of George Wimpey homes started in May 2003.Just before moving into the property we decided to have a look around the outside. When we looked through the Utility room window on the ground floor we noticed water running down the interior wall and leaking from the ceiling. We notified the Sales Office who arranged for a security guard to turn the water off until the builders were back at work on the Monday. I telephoned the Sales Office the following week to be informed that the problem had been resolved and that the paintwork was being repaired. I asked what had caused the leak but nobody would give me a straight answer. On the day that we purchased the property I was informed by the site manager that the leak had been caused by a nail puncturing a water pipe in the hallway above and that the pipe had been replaced.
