Complaints Procedure

At St. Modwen Homes, we pride ourselves on the experience we provide our customers both existing and new. We will be genuine, honest and treat all customers fairly with respect and be transparent throughout. Our people are committed to building homes to a high standard and want our customers to be delighted with the purchase of their new home. Our customers are at the heart of everything we do, however, we understand that things don’t always go to plan, and we don’t always get things right.

We have made our complaints procedure as simple as we can, ensuring your concerns are addressed and resolved as quickly as possible, so you can continue to enjoy your new home with minimal stress and disruption. We have set our complaints policy out in these simple steps:
