    Miller homes generally build better quality new homes as is borne out by the number of NHBC Quality awards they win each year.

    Better quality built homes should mean there should be "few difficulties".
    Miller Homes state their own Customer Satisafction survey scores are high too.
    There are far worse house builders in this country than Miller Homes imo.

    The NHBC "quality" Awards are, in my opinion, little other than subjectively assessed 'top of' site manager charts which do not necessarily indicate total compliance with NHBC Technical Standards and the requirements of Building Regulations. I speak from a position of intimate knowledge.

    My offer of assistance is specifically in relation to Miller Homes in Scotland where in my experience the standards have not been met across a number of developments. Should you have anything to add to this thread of a factual nature then I would be delighted to hear it.

    The NHBC awards are a factual matter! They are not given to site managers who build poor quality new homes. meeting the NHBC standards is a given, these managers EXCEED this basic requirement and go the 'extra mile' to ensure the homes they build are of the highest quality. Miller win more awards per 1000 homes than any other major house builder.

    Like you, I speak from "initmate knowledge" having managed building sites for 30 years and won several NHBC awards.

    Perhaps Miller do have some rogue sites in Scotland, but they have less than most of the other major builders.
