Be Careful
The New Home Improvement Group
I reluctantly need to share concerns about The New Home Improvement Group following work they carried out to install bifold doors, build a wall and construct a patio. If you are thinking of commissioning them to carry out work, be very careful. The initial planning was good but problems started to occur from day one of the project work, when it was clear that the team were not aware of detailed requirements and there was little guidance from a project manager. I had to step in and soon found that I had to continue throughout the whole project to guide and supervise in order to correct errors, of which there were many, advise on specifications, and monitor and lead progress. Project management from The New Home Improvement Group was deeply lacking.
Two specific serious concerns are first, the bifold doors were initially installed incorrectly. The New Home Improvement Group have attempted to install them correctly but, without the necessary competence, have been unable to and I have now lost confidence that they would ever be able to, making excuses that the supplier is to blame. Second, with insufficient protection, ‘type one’ material was stored on our driveway. They then used an excavator to move it, badly damaging our drive. They have refused to carry out any repair or rectification work. We now have to live with the damaged drive.
What started as a promising relationship soon deteriorated primarily because of a lack of project supervision by the company, and a lack of care and competence. I am sure that there will be clients who are satisfied with The New Home Improvement Group, that the company would be able to create explanations for our experiences, and conjure up glowing testimonies, however if you are considering commissioning them, be prepared for many issues during the project and quite possibly to have to carry out much of the supervision work yourself.
