Bovis customers in Norwich angry after moving into houses they say weren't finished on time

They're the dream homes that turned into nightmares.
Bovis customers in Cringleford and Queen's Hills have a whole catalogue of complaints - from holes in the wall to dodgy plumbing.
They had to wait months to move in, while the company told them the work was being finished - but tonight Bovis say they are working hard to sort out the problems.

What happened to retention for subcontractors,hold money back for shoddy work and if they don’t rectify substandard workmanship the money can pay for som one else to put it right .

Bovis will just pocket that

[@hannecatton2179]

They bought a BOVIS home ! That was the first error.

Built so cheaply and sold for a very high premium

[@petercurrell9344]

I am told the builders do not allow the homeowners Inspector in during building.

[@davidcoleman6032]

Absolutely disgusting way to treat so say 'valued customers'!Should be built properly to begin with!It should be law that money isn't exchanged until customers have had a chance to look the place over properly!

Never buy a new home off plan

[@sparkmeister4706]

Before handover you should have a visit to snag it. Just like on commercial property.

[@philiphowell1505]

Customers? mugs more like.

[@grahamcole4240]

I would never buy a new build.

[@ibrarkhan3972]

A house is probably the most expensive purchase a person makes so why don't they pay an inspector to check the property over for any issues for peace of mind. If OK buy it if not walk away.

Vote with your wallet folks,,DONT buy from bodger Bovis,!🤮🤮

[@sparkmeister4706]

That kitchen looks so unfinished. No end panels or cornice.

[@BobSpence30]

Simple, small claims court for defective work, expenses and distress caused. ££££

[@amwartwork]
