Evolution, NW10 Reviews
Write a Review Upload PhotosPerfect for a first time buyer as the apartment is complete and ready to move in.
The apartment as well as the building have been designed with high ceilings and spacious rooms. They feel light and comfortable. All necessary appliances are included and with two year guarantee. The balcony is such a wonderful touch to the apartment and is pretty spacious and drained in sunlight on the sunny days.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
development is seven minutes walk from the station and it has a concierge and two private gardens.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
That by a share to buy a property was a good investment and I would’ve done it years ago.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Like anything else there’s always something that’s ongoing but registered and dealt with in a polite manner.
Good building and location – non existent support from Network Homes
I am happy with the aesthetics of my flat. There are a couple of repair issues (weak flush, bathroom locks that don’t work etc) that I raised about a month after I moved in. No surprise Network Homes ignored my requests for these to be fixed as soon as I moved in.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
I live 5 minutes away from an Elizabeth line station (Southall) so transport links are great. There are plenty local shops and restaurants although they lack in diversity.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
That the developer (Network Homes) would provide zero aftercare.
What is the best feature of your home:
The size of the kitchen and the quality of appliances.
Exceptional Development: Thoughtful Design and Outstanding Facilities
The development is exceptionally well-crafted, with a keen focus on meeting the needs of its residents. The design is not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional, which enhances the overall living experience. The facilities provided are top-notch and add great value to the community. I’m thoroughly impressed with this development.

I appreciate the proximity to the railway station, making commuting easy. The airport is conveniently located near the Elizabeth line. Shopping is just a 10-minute drive away, and there’s a nearby bus stop for added convenience. The school is also within close reach, which is great
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Wish I knew that the after service was not that good, have emailed them from day one but still not resolved
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
From the very beginning, I’ve encountered several issues. My heating system hasn’t been functioning properly, and the air conditioning isn’t performing as expected. Additionally, three sockets in my property are non-functional. I reported these problems via email, but unfortunately, none of them have been resolved yet.
What is the best feature of your home:
The security system and the concierge
Makes me feel secured and safe
Heart of Southall
Since PPM took over management of the building, service have dramatically improved. The design of the building is all wrong there should have always bed one access point into the build instead there is 3 which has caused residents problems with packages dumped by past the concerige to enter the building.

Good things Great location to use the Elizabeth line and bus routes. Downside no shops near by, no parking, a lot of traffic in the area. Poor service from council, hasn’t providdd enough bins.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Guarantee/ other residents living here. Council residents have been a big problem, caused a number of issues in the building.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Very poor, once the guarantee for build had ended they washed their hands. The guarantee should start when the building was occupied not when it was built, otherwise nothing is tested to see if anything could go wrong. Multiple items have broken some Iv paid for some are still broken.
Unfortunately not good companies
Regarding Network Homes and Galliard they are both terrible. not so much on the overall construction but more on the finishing issues.
I can only advice not to get any flat now, that the defects period is over as they will simply dismiss any new issues that arise, and will just need to pay ourselves, even if its clear that it was an installation issues.
We had already had to fix one issue out of my pocket, and it was evident it was an installation issue , but they can just reject by simply saying: “Galliard have rejected.”
Network homes wont help you in trying to fix any issues, and Galliard because its out of defect period will simply reject it.
But even during defect period, they had to come in3 times to try to fix an issue, and in the end they simply can say “its resolved” even when its not, and now its up to us to pay for the fix.

regarding the place around I guess its quite a relaxed location, since the flat is only internal, the noise from outside is very much inexistent, it has a lot of room to improve around, and its visibly that it will, with more developments and new stores opening, I believe its going to be a very good area.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
These companies, can easily dismiss any issues, they should be more scrutinized so they actually were forced to fix the issues.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
the first management company, Strawberry star, was terrible, with the new management company PMM, things seem to be improved, but still bit early to comment further.
Parking for guests and visitors does not exist on this development
Parking for guests and visitors does not exist on this development l, which makes it extreme hard for all us living here to fully enjoy. Needs more green space and bins from council, more local shops and groceries are required and even a bus.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Need council to provide bins in the area and parking.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Building management have changed in the last year.
It’s great and likeable but prefer a better security, which is on its way now.
The building and the apartment is great quality and very managed so far. Any issues are quickly resolved and I like the design of the flat. I enjoy living on this area and has met most of my expectations.
Please tell us what you like and dislike about this area:
All the station and marking area are easily accessible, which is very convenient. A great view of the Borough and very social neighbourhood. However, the security management is weak here and difficult y of parking availability.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Better understood the heating and water supply system and its management. Also, tips while shifting homes.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Recently, the management team has changed, therefore it’s getting better and began meeting expectations
