Cowboys.
Can't/ won't explain charges on bills.
Ignore even emergency contact - fire alarm going off all bank holiday weekend.
Charge commission on insurance!
Never respond to complaints.
Change your factor - it's not that difficult 😊
*Edit - in response to JG reply. We did leave JG over a year ago and we STILL don't have final confirmation of electricity bills and other bills dating back several years and they won't share the bills with us because they're are apparently far too many for us to manage.
In addition they didn't respond to a SAR in time and then were awkward about how they would share it. I spoke with the ombudsman and will pursue it again once all dealings with JG are complete before myself and my neighbours pursue another tribunal.

Good Morning Flowers,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
We can see that you left a 1-star review in December 2024, and in that feedback you mentioned that you had changed your factor and were no longer a client of ours.
Normally, we would ask for your account details so we can look into your concerns and respond to each point directly. However, as it appears you have not been a client for around a year, we are unable to do this.
If this is not the case and we do still manage your property, please contact your property manager, who will be happy to review your account and address any queries you may have.
Kind Regards,
James Gibb

We had an issue with our underground parking garage gate. I called JG and Jackie sorted it out as quickly as she could, and it was repaired in 2 days as it needed a part. Liam also called to update us when it would be fixed.

Good Morning Brenda,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're pleased to hear Jackie and Liam were able to address the issue with the gate promptly for you and kept you updated with progress.
We appreciate your feedback and will ensure this is passed onto Jackie and Liam.

DAYLIGHT ROBBERS!!
Daylight robbers - DO NOT BUY WITH THEM! DO YOUR RESEARCH!!!
Im a first time buyer and JAMES GIBB have truly made me regret buying this flat. I was on a payment plan for an already ridiculous amount. When it came to their renewal period, instead of renewing my payment plan they took almost £2000 out my account on payday claiming its what i owe them FOR THAT FOLLOWING YEAR!! even though Im up to date with my payments, when I contacted them they said they couldn't do anything about it and thankfully my bank is great and cancelled the payment. This company is money hungry. They dont care about the people at all and if i could simply leave my flat I would have. Their attitude on the phone reflects how they do business. Life is already difficult and they are apart of the problem. DO NOT DO ANY BUYING IF THEY ARE INVOLVED! BE AWARE

Response to JG.
Well, it is in my “sent mail” and I remember clearly sending it to you as soon as I’d finished speaking to the police.
I am very surprised that you didn’t reply because the content of the email was very important, given the relative frequency of storms there has been. My major concern is for the proximity of trees to the building where I stay.

Absolutely appalling
Very questionable. I have had 20 years dealing with SG and have had terrible service 95% of the time.
Very slow to respond, if at all. The worst factor I have had the misfortune to deal with.

Cladding Project
Surprised at some of the negative reviews but can only talk to my own experience. James Gibb have been incredibly helpful at driving the resolution of cladding issues with a block of apartments, one of which I own. Sure, it wasn’t cheap and the original builder long since defunct to take responsibility. Without the work going forward however the alternative was an unsaleable apartment and for that I’m incredibly grateful.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Cladding on properties has been a real concern for flat owners in recent years and we're pleased to hear we've been able to take some of that worry away for you in our overseeing of the project.

Horrendous organisation that charges…
Horrendous organisation that charges outrageous amounts for buildings insurance £1600 for a flat in Glasgow. Charging £235 a month in total service fees compare that to My much bigger more expensive Edinburgh House at £40 a month and buildings insurance of only £350 run by Ross and Liddle who are great. Trying to get them ousted from our building.

Good morning Maureen,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It's difficult to compare insurance rates and fees on different types of properties in different areas of the country, especially without knowing claims history.
We would be happy to discuss the insurance cover on your specific building, please contact your property manager directly.

They write their own reviews
Isn’t it funny how they’ve been getting absolutely destroyed with their reviews, but since they’ve started replying to reviews, good reviews start popping up? It’s all fake to try and save their already bad image. No one is falling for it anyway.

Hello Madeline,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We have recently begun inviting clients to leave us reviews, you can see this beside the review where it says "manual invitation". You will also see that not all invited reviews are 5 stars, its important to us to receive genuine feedback from our clients so we can continually review our service. Trustpilot also has stringent measures in place to ensure reviews on their site are genuine.
We have sent you a request for more information, to allow us to identify your account so we can contact you directly to discuss your concerns.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We do send quarterly invoices which detail all charges on your account and what they are for.

Good afternoon John,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're disappointed to hear you believe our service is too expensive - as you live within a budgeted development, that budget is agreed annually by owners, and James Gibb facilitate it on their behalf.
In relation to repairs not being carried out quickly enough, there can be many factors which affect the timeline for instructing repairs, such as obtaining sufficient agreement from owners, or requiring to employ the services of consultants for specialist works. We would be happy to explain any specific delays you feel were unreasonable, please just contact your property manager directly.
Kind Regards,
James Gibb
Terrible value for money
Terrible value for money, charge a high management fee for poor service. Apparently run tendering process but still charge over twice the market rate for their ‘approved’ services. Charged residents to investigate an issue weeks after the council fixed it. James Gibb seem to be more focused on issuing fines on their customers rather than doing their jobs. Our estate is held hostage by James Gibb.
