Comment: Redrow Homes Defect Woes by Ben

[Tony]

Hi Lynn, Miss JC and Charlotte,

Redrow – we are also in a real problem home of a certain style built by Redrow.

The problems are the same with all the other owners of the same style and we are looking for answers.

Redrow are saying that it was passed by the council, so they are not at fault, as they built to the plans submitted.

I have been fighting for over a year now and the NHBC take so long to rectify a problem that it is almost worst than the builder.

I have to wonder that if you are not a builder or surveyor, how would you know what a defect is or what to look for, thus making the NHBC policy pretty questionable.

I have provided Redrow with several opportunities to help with our home and wasted 17 annual leave days so far to be at the house for work to be carried out, that I was considering legal action through the small claims court for every snag or for the full property amount through the Sheriff court. Can you offer some advice or can we get together and put a stronger case infront of a court ?

Regards,
