Staff at Bellway’s Essex developments are celebrating after the company was awarded HBF 5-Star home builder status for the ninth consecutive year.
The accolade is the highest attainable from the Home Builders Federation. It shows that more than 90 per cent of customers who have moved into their new home say they would recommend Bellway to a friend.
Bellway is building new homes in Essex at the following developments:
Hatfield Grove and Priory Grange, Hatfield Peverel
Oakfields Park, Halstead
Poppy View, Saffron Walden
Hollytree Walk and Aspen Walk, Colchester
Beaulieu Grange, Chelmsford
Sapphire Fields at Great Dunmow Grange, Great Dunmow
Westcombe Park, Maldon
Maple Creek, Fobbing
Hare’s Leap, Henham
Bellway is also building under its Ashberry Homes brand at Beaumont Park in Great Dunmow.
Jenny Walker, Sales Director for Bellway Essex said: “Our teams across Essex work exceptionally hard to create homes our customers can be proud of, and to make the homebuying journey run smoothly. This award recognises that our customers feel their efforts have been successful.
“We are grateful to every homebuyer who took the time to give their feedback, culminating in this incredible endorsement.”
Bellway has outlined its commitment to prioritising people and the planet as part of its ‘Better with Bellway’ sustainability strategy. This includes a focus on customers and communities.
Jenny said: “Building new homes brings wider benefits to communities, including creating employment opportunities for hundreds of sub-contractors. These local companies make an important contribution to our customers’ experience of buying and living in their new home. Their engagement in our customer-first ethos is a key component to the success we are celebrating today.”
The HBF’s star ratings are based on a customer satisfaction survey carried out eight weeks after a customer moves into their home by the NHBC (National House Building Council). The survey covers multiple aspects of the home-buying process but the ratings are based on one question alone – ‘Would you recommend the developer to a friend?’.
