Okay area but bad development

Development took a huge amount of time and very little facilities. Roads were not laid outside out home until I had sold on the property (almost 3 years). Constantly looking dirty and run down from construction and timelines that were promised were very rarely met. Still have no idea what you pay a service charge for

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

Parking is okay as I had two spaces. Bins were collected well but litter was often left on streets for weeks before being cleared. Fairly nice neighbourhood and little traffic noise

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

The houses are not built to the best standard so make sure to survey well before purchase

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Very hard to get support but for the major things they were good

we are still waiting for a new back door and frame as ours was faulty

The designs are ok we have a 3 bedroom house with two very large rooms and one very small room I feel like the rooms could have been spaced out so the small room was not so small. Unfortunately we are still waiting for a new back door and frame as ours was faulty from moving in nearly 3 years ago.

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

The road we live on is nice and quiet, the road conditions are very poor and roads are very narrow to try and pass two cars at the same time. Open space is good unfortunately we have waited a long time for local shop and it’s very limited with range and very over priced.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Issues with the snagging list takes forever to be fixed as you get passed from pillar to post

Overall a very good area I would recommend anyone to come and live in tadpole, lovely community and structure to the area.

The designs of the houses are very nice I love how the houses are semi detached or detached, leaves pleanty of room for everyone, great parking spaces. however I always get boiler breakdowns, heater doesn’t work ect on the other hand, when I call for help they are always available and fix things very well and very friendly

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

It’s a great area and amazing community for families however the noise and inconvenience of the builders can be annoying. However, the workers are always happy to answer questions or help you

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I wish I knew the size of the garden or had a growing, it is a great community neighbourhoods are very nice

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

They have responded very well, anytime I call they always come to help quickly or give me ways to fix it myself.

Won’t take responsibility

Rubbish, rush building the houses and don’t finish them or don’t do things properly
Don’t like to take responsibility for there mistakes and refuses to fix them even when still in warranty
Been waiting 5 years and still fix my issues even with complaint after complaint even with threats of court action against them

Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:

Beautiful area and a great community, overall we have a lovely home that we love however we have had to push a side alot of damage to our property from builders rushing and not doing a good job
We have lived in our home for 5 years and still are waiting for soverign to fix ours issues
Roads are slowly getting better but have been awful for years, the roads are far too narrow and is not idea for a busy community coming in and out all the time
Car are forced to stop to let people through first
And I can’t imagine what emergency services would go through if they had to get some someone’s quickly
It is awful on bin day as bin lorries are just too big and they block the road ( not there fault)
Since living here we have had no problems from anti social behaviour and has some lovely neighbours

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

How unreliable soverign Is and wish I didn’t go for a new build!

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Won’t take responsibility and bounce my problems back and forth from soverign to bovis
