Just a quick question What is the point…

Just a quick question What is the point of employing a site manager when he doesn't know what is going on at is site Surely common sense should prevail and homeowners should be informed of work near there dwelling instead of being palmed off with the usual excuse talk to customer services I'm just doing my job (What Job)is he doing

Thank you for your review, Mr Glover. We have investigated the matter, and it seems that the works you are referring to at an adjacent property were within our contractor’s scope of works albeit not scheduled for that day. Works that had been scheduled had to cease and rather than go off site the contractor elected to move onto the works near to your property. Unfortunately, on this occasion the contractor did not inform the site manager prior to starting the works. We apologise that this led to inconvenience and miscommunication for you and your neighbour. The matter has been raised with the contractor. We will ensure that all future works near your property are suitably communicated.

Wonderful Experience Buying Our New Home with Shanly Homes

We recently purchased our new home through Shanly Homes, and the experience has been fantastic from start to finish. The entire process was smooth, transparent, and handled with great professionalism.

A special mention goes to Kerri and Michael, who were absolutely lovely throughout friendly, supportive, and always ready to help. They made what can often be a stressful process feel easy and enjoyable, guiding us every step of the way with genuine care and attention.
The quality of the home itself is excellent, with impressive attention to detail and a real sense of craftsmanship. We couldn’t be happier with our purchase and are truly grateful for how seamless everything has been.

Ascot Oaks July 2025

The reason we chose a Shanly home at Ascot Oaks was, as stated in the brochure, all the premium features are provided as standard. The homes are well and thoughtfully designed including plenty of storage space and a decent quality build. The exteriors offer a variety of finishes with attractive landscaping and developments are located in nice areas. what’s not to like?
We were the first adopters on the site, and in all honesty, I was quite apprehensive about buying a new build and was somewhat of a whinger initially. However, I need not have worried. The sales and support team headed up by Rosie were so helpful and informative throughout the entire purchase process. Follow on site-based issue management through Andy and Graham was excellent with good communication. Subsequent support provided by Toby in Sales and Phil in construction was also second to none.
We are now settled into our new home and are extremely pleased and happy, knowing we have made the right decision.
Keep up the good work Shanly and thanks again for a lovely new home.

Ascot Oaks is a becoming a lovely community to be a part of. The landscaping and location are fantastic. What makes a Shanly new build home different to many others is, as you say, that all the high specification features you see within the show home come as standard.
The sales and site team at Ascot Oaks are fantastic and are always happy to go the extra mile to ensure our customers receive an excellent service. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

Excellent First Home Buying Experience

I had a fantastic experience with Shanly Homes while buying my first flat. The team was professional, reliable, and attentive throughout the entire process. The quality of work was outstanding, and to a high standard.

Communication was clear and consistent, which made the journey smooth and stress-free. I truly appreciated their attention to detail and commitment to delivering a home I'm proud of.

Highly recommended for anyone looking for a trustworthy and skilled builder.

I did not have confirmation the house had passed necessary safety requirements until 3 days before I moved in!! The boiler has a major issue and my bifold door does not lock properly. Parking is very difficult because my drive is adjacent the site entrance

Ascot Oaks - Thank you Rosie!

I wanted to share some feedback on our recent home-buying journey.

Ascot Oaks development is truly impressive, with each home finished to a very high standard. However, what truly made the experience exceptional as a first time buyer was the support we received from the sales team, specifically Rosie.

Rosie's enthusiasm for the homes and her genuine desire to help people find the right fit was clear from the start. She was a great source of information, a proactive communicator and provided clear answers to all of our questions, offering valuable insights without ever making us feel pressured.

Her guidance throughout the process was incredibly reassuring and built a high level of confidence for us as buyers. It was a pleasure working with her from start to finish.

Ascot Oaks - Thank you, Rosie

I wanted to take a moment to feedback on my recent experience at Ascot Oaks.

Firstly, the development looks great and the properties are finished to an excellent standard. That said, what really stood out to me was the outstanding experience with the sales team, who were knowledgable and friendly.

Rosie, in particular, has real passion and energy for the product, clearly wants to help people find their dream homes and works hard to make the whole process as smooth as possible, without being pushy. She answered all questions and offered advice when needed, which for a buyer, built trust and confidence. She was a pleasure to deal with - thank you!

Exceptional Service

The sales office staff in Waterside quarter are second to none
They are professional, courteous and knowledgeable. We dealt mainly with Kerrie who kept us up to date with the processes involved and was exceptional when unfortunately we had to pull out of our purchase ( nothing to do with Stanley Homes ) in fact they were above exceptional
I hope we have the opportunity in the not to distant future to deal with both Kerrie and Shanly Homes again

Fantastic Experience

We recently bought our dream home from Shanly Homes at the Moorfield Mews development, and we couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. We first found the development online, called to enquire, and decided to walk in, and from that very first moment, we were made to feel welcome.

We were warmly greeted by the on-site sales manager, Mr. Jazz Virdee, who showed us around and helped us realise straight away that this was the home we had been looking for. Jazz and the team went above and beyond to support us throughout the process, helping us find a mortgage broker, chasing solicitors to keep things moving efficiently, and ensuring we settled into our new home smoothly.

The house itself is built to an exceptionally high standard, with outstanding finishes, thoughtful design, and excellent facilities and amenities. We would also like to thank Ashley Miller, the Senior Site Manager, whose dedication and attention to detail ensured the homes were built to the highest quality.

Shanly Homes also provided clear instructions, great customer support, and all the guarantees we needed to feel safe and welcome in our new home.

We are truly grateful to Jazz and the entire Shanly Homes team for making what could have been a stressful journey feel smooth, personal, and exciting.

Amazing Moorfield Mews

I bought plot 34 - 4bed home. Me and my family are so happy living in our new home. Shanly have been so accommodating by providing and assisting with our move, whilst we have had external trades coming in. Jazz has been impeccable and professional throughout the whole process. This would not have been possible with Jazz. And also a big Thank you to Clive and the build team. We are loving our new home. Thank you Shanly Home.

Excellent customer service

I wanted to say what a wonderful experience I had recently while viewing a new development 'Magna Gardens', Purley.
I was greeted at thesite by the sales consultant Lexi who was professional, smart in appearance and knowledgeable about the site.
My situation was a little unusual and required discretion which was respected and handled perfectly by Lexi.
I had just dropped into the site and Lexi showed me round but was not pushy in any way.
