If I was renting I’d have left.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Great location but customer service and decoration quality have been awful. They turfed our garden for us due to the bad job they made of decorating but made such a bad job of it. There is rubble within the turf and it’s so bump we can’t cut the grass. We challenged them on this and were told it was our responsibility to maintain (and make sure rubble was removed supposedly). I haven’t had as bad customer service before.

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

That the helpfulness of Keepmoat would end as soon as we completed.

What is the best feature of your home:

The home is spacious and the walls no longer look like a lunar surface after we redecorated ourselves.

The Ryanair of house builders, and that's offensive to Ryanair!!

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

No bins anywhere nearby, the roads are an appalling mess as the building continues, paths are constantly closed and you have to walk on the roads. Nobody seems to care, which is why the houses are built the way they are.

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

Slowly, sending one contractor after another to try to "fix the problems".

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

The boasts their website makes about being energy-efficient, good quality build and customer service satisfaction guaranteed. It's all lies and I wouldn't waste your money buying a Keepmoat home.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The local bus route drives through the High View estate. There is plenty of parking for residents of Masseys View. However there are some issues with teenagers in the park opposite Masseys View.

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

They did attend eventually to try and fix the issues, however I needed to replace all of the faulty items.

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

Have all of the plumbing and electrics tested before you buy.

Mainly quiet and well maintained

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

There are corner shops within five minutes walk and pubs a bit further away but plenty of them if you get a taxi. There are practically no footpaths so sharing the roads with cars can be hazardous as some drivers are careless. The park off Masseys View is nice for dog walks and playing with kids, even if vandals break the equipment. At least the council keeps it maintained and clears the rubbish people leave. The estate is perfectly placed for the major roads, MetroCentre, Newcastle, Morrisons. If you like walking you will never run out of nice walks including the nearby Derwent Walk and Shibdon Pond.

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

We are lucky to have had a great landlord for the past five years.

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

There are still a lot of new houses going up and the hill road down to Morrisons can get muddy and congested.

Look Nice, but shoddy build quality

House Owner (Owner)

Verified Resident

Aug 2021

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Location is good; close to metro centre & Newcastle city centre with easy transport links. However, being built in the valley of the river Tyne the area has a lot of hills which can be exhausting to get around by foot.

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

Do their best to get out of fixing any issues, with poor excuses and long timeframes in the hope you give up.

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

The usual comments on new build quality are true, these houses won't last.
