Jones Homes has once again received five stars for customer satisfaction from the Home Builders Federation (HBF) and National House Building Council (NHBC).
The highest accolade a homebuilder can achieve for exceptional customer service, the award is based on the results of the National New Home Customer Satisfaction Survey, an annual survey that gathers feedback from thousands of purchasers across the UK after they move into their new home.
One of the most comprehensive surveys of its kind in the UK, purchasers are asked a series of questions about their new home and their purchase experience from the internal and external design of their new home and timely delivery of their property, to their satisfaction with the sales, handover and aftercare processes.
Prestigious five star status is only awarded to companies where more than 90% of customers are satisfied with the quality of their home and would be happy to recommend a friend.
Managing director at Jones Homes, Gary Hardy, commented: “Customer satisfaction is at the heart of everything that we do; we’re delighted that our customers are happy to recommend us to their friends and family and to be once again awarded with five stars.
“Only a small number of homebuilders received five star status this year. This makes the achievement even more special and I would like to thank our team for continually striving to raise the bar and deliver exceptional quality and service for our customers.”
The five star rating from the HBF is the latest in a number of prestigious award wins for Jones Homes; one of its site managers was recently awarded with a prestigious Regional Award from the NHBC in the much coveted Pride in the Job Awards. The company also has six nominations in the annual Local Area Building Control awards (LABC) and it has just received an award from the Civic Society for its sensitive transformation of the Grade II listed Cold Arbor Farm buildings in Macclesfield into a desirable collection of three unique and distinctive new homes.
With a history of excellence and an enviable reputation for build quality and customer care, Jones Homes is a privately-owned housebuilder with a Head Office in Alderley Edge, Cheshire, and regional offices in Lancashire, Yorkshire and Kent.
The company has more than 50 years expertise in the design and build of high quality new homes and currently has around 30 developments taking shape in highly sought after residential areas across the UK.
Award winning residential developer Jones Homes has secured planning permission for a further phase of new build homes at its popular Barrington Park development in Alsager.
Following an exceptional response to its first phase, Jones Homes has confirmed that it will build an additional 28 high quality homes on a 1.9 acre piece of land that borders the existing development.
The new phase will comprise a mix of two, three, four and five bedroom detached and semi-detached homes, appealing to a wide range of purchasers, including families, first time buyers, young professionals and those looking to downsize.
Renowned for the quality, style and superior specification of its properties, Jones Homes is one of the region’s leading privately owned residential developers and is committed to helping meet demand for high quality new build homes across the UK.
All properties on the new phase will be built to Jones Homes’ exacting standards. Bursting with individuality and character, both inside and out, the homes benefit from thoughtfully designed elevations and a variety of external finishes for stunning kerb appeal. They also boast an exceptional internal specification, with high quality contemporary kitchens with integrated appliances, modern bathrooms and en suites and a range of luxurious fixtures and fittings.
Managing director at Jones Homes, Gary Hardy, commented: “We’re delighted to have secured permission for a further phase of homes at Barrington Park. Offering a delightful semi-rural lifestyle in the charming village of Alsager, yet close to M6 for travelling and commuting, it is a great location and one of the many reasons why our previous phase has been in such high demand. Having built in Alsager previously, we are very much part of the local community and look forward to offering more quality new build homes to buyers from across the local area.”
Within the planning agreement, Jones Homes will make a number of Section 106 contributions that will be of direct benefit to the local community. A total of £125,950 will be contributed towards education, public green space, play space enhancement and wildlife habitat enhancement.
Award winning housebuilder Jones Homes has appointed Ralph Bacon as the new Regional Director for its Lancashire office.
With extensive experience in the industry, Ralph is well qualified for his new role. Over the years he has held several senior positions for national and regional housebuilders, where he was Construction and Commercial Director.
As Regional Director, Ralph will be responsible for the day-to-day management of the Jones Homes office in Lancashire and the strategic development of the regional business to ensure that it meets its growth and expansion objectives.
Working with the team at the regional office in Lytham St Annes, as well as the directors at the Head Office in Alderley Edge, he will oversee all aspects of the business from land acquisition and planning to the build programme, sales and customer care.
Ralph’s first projects for Jones Homes Lancashire include the launch of Moorfield Park, a brand new development in Poulton-Le-Fylde. He will also take the lead and oversee the imminent launch of the prestigious Stonecross Meadows, Kendal. Jones Homes’ first development in Cumbria.
Ralph says: "I am delighted to join Jones Homes and am looking forward to working with the company, which has an exceptional reputation for product quality and customer care. As a five star rated housebuilder, Jones Homes is an exemplary business to be involved with and I hope to play an integral part in driving forward its future expansion aims and growth.”
Managing Director at Jones Homes, Gary Hardy added: "I would like to welcome Ralph to the team. With his background in the industry, he has expansive knowledge and the experience to successfully lead the business in the Lancashire region.”
Jones Homes has announced plans to build in Kendal.after acquiring 5.17 hectares of land on Milnthorpe Road and has planning permission for a stunning residential development of 110 high quality new build homes, including 38 affordable properties (18 of which will be available to purchase at a discounted value).
Known as Stonecross Meadows, the impressive new development will be built to Jones Homes’ exacting standards and feature an exceptional selection of three, four and five bedroom detached and semi-detached properties.
To complement the natural lie of the land in the area, the housebuilder will also introduce two new split level housetypes at Stonecross Meadows, designed exclusively for this development.
Bursting with character, both inside and out, the properties will benefit from thoughtfully designed elevations and a variety of external finishes for maximum kerb appeal. They will also boast a superior internal specification that features contemporary kitchens with integrated appliances, modern bathrooms and en suites and a range of high quality fixtures and fittings.
Every last detail has been carefully considered to delight even the most discerning of homebuyers and ensure that properties from Jones Homes stand apart from competitors.
Managing director at Jones Homes, Gary Hardy, commented: “We are delighted to have secured land in Kendal and have the opportunity to showcase our homes in this enviable location on the edge of the Lake District National Park.
“Kendal is a thriving market town and a highly desirable place to live and work, or own a second home. Our Stonecross Meadows development promises to offer an array of highly specified new homes in an attractive semi-rural setting. We’ve already received a great deal of interest in the scheme and anticipate properties being in high demand once they are officially released for sale.”
Stonecross Meadows is Jones Homes’ first development in south Lakeland. The company has a history of excellence and an enviable reputation for build quality and customer care across the UK and is delighted to be expanding into Cumbria, bringing its highly sought after new build homes to buyers in Kendal and the surrounding areas.
Underlining its commitment to the region, Jones Homes has already committed to contribute more than £300,000 towards improving educational facilities in the town and improvement of local highways.
Construction at Stonecross Meadows is expected to start in April and take around four years. Homes are expected to be released for sale from Summer 2018 with showhomes to follow in early 2019 and the first homes ready for occupation in Spring 2019.
Alex Bedson, a Site Manager for Jones Homes, has won a prestigious Regional Award from the National House Building Council (NHBC) in its much coveted Pride in the Job Awards 2017.
Based at Jones Homes’ exclusive Bollin Park development in Wilmslow, Alex was honoured for his dedication to building homes of exceptional quality.
He was selected from more than 16,000 site managers from across the UK, and is one of only 12 site managers in the country to be recognised for his outstanding achievements.
Alex received his North West Regional Award in the medium builder category, and he is now automatically put forward as a candidate to compete for the ultimate accolade; a Pride in the Job Supreme Award, which will be announced in January 2018.
Having won a Pride in the Job award previously, it is the first time that Alex, who has been a site manager for over 10 years, has progressed so far in the competition.
First to congratulate Alex on his amazing achievement was Jones Homes’ Managing Director, Gary Hardy, who said: “This is a first for Jones Homes and we are incredibly proud of Alex for winning a Regional Award from the NHBC for Bollin Park. The prestige that is associated with such an accolade is widely acknowledged in the industry and it is exceptionally good news for Jones Homes that one of our site managers has been recognised as one of the best in the country.
“Alex is a talented site manager and his passion, leadership skills and commitment to building properties of the highest quality at Bollin Park has resulted in him being honoured as a top performing UK-based site manager by the NHBC.”
Now in its 37th year, the Pride in the Job Award is the most highly regarded competition in the housebuilding industry, and one all site managers strive to achieve. Judging for the awards is rigorous, with each site manager assessed in 44 areas of site management, including technical knowledge, consistency in the build process and quality control.
Competition in the North West was tough, with a total of four site managers in the region taking home a Regional Award.
On his Regional Award win, Alex says: “It is brilliant news! The Pride in the Job Awards are hugely competitive amongst site managers and I am thrilled to have progressed this far in the competition. To be put forward for the Supreme Awards is overwhelming, but I am proud of what I have achieved at Bollin Park and the success of the development. It is a team effort and I hope we have something to celebrate once again in January.”
Bollin Park offers a stunning collection of magnificent four and five bedroom detached properties in a highly desirable and sought-after setting in Cheshire. Located on Adlington Road, a leafy and attractive part of Wilmslow, the development is close to the town centre and just a short drive from the neighbouring villages of Prestbury and Alderley Edge.
New research carried out by the Home Builders Federation has found that the cost of upgrading an older property to the same standard as a new build home could be as much as £50,000. The publication of the data comes at the launch of this year’s New Homes Week which aims to highlight the many benefits for consumers of buying a new build home.
From the benefits of living in an energy efficient home that could save you hundreds of pounds on your utility bills each year, to the brand-new fixtures and fittings that come as standard, buying a new build home offers many advantages when compared to buying an older property.
The research looked at the work that might have to be carried out when people move into an older home, and what would have to be done to a home to bring it up to the standards of a new property which also comes with a warranty protecting the buyer from liability on structural problems within the first 10 years. Whether it’s the price of buying and fitting a new kitchen (£7,900) or having a house rewired (£8,850), the costs for people moving into an older home can quickly mount up.
For a homeowner who wants to get the same standard of finish and functionality they could expect from a new build home, the cost could be up to £51,643. This includes paying out for:
- Kitchen - £7,900
- Bathroom - £3,800
- Central heating - £6,185
- Wiring - £8,850
- Plastering - £5,240
- Decorating - £2,500
- Flooring - £2,628
- Insulation - £775
- Windows and doors - £4,900
- Roofing - £4,000
- Guttering - £690
And the savings continue: while just 26% of second- hand homes achieve an energy efficiency rating of A to C, 94% of homes built in 2016 could boast such standards.
Commenting on the figures, Stewart Baseley, executive chairman of the Home Builders Federation, said
“Buyers of new build homes enjoy a huge number of benefits over those purchasing a second-hand home.
“During the buying process customers will receive a high level of service and support from trained sales staff. Upon moving into a property that is designed for modern living, there are all the advantages of living in a home with brand new fixtures and fittings and the latest energy efficiency technologies.
“This report helps to highlight the hidden savings that buyers of new build homes make. While most people have a budget put aside to get the little jobs done, costs soon add up when you need to replace a bathroom or a kitchen.
“£50,000 is a lot of money by anyone’s standards, and this new research emphasises just how much new build home buyers really get for their money.”
With Jones Homes distinctly high specification standards and top levels of energy efficiency built into each home, the cost of not buying new could potentially be even higher. We have even introduced rooftop solar panels at selected locations.
The Home Builders Federation has also found that New homes being built in England and Wales are considerably more energy efficient than their predecessors, saving owners hundreds of pounds a year in energy bills, A new home owner will spend on average £443.30 a year (£276 heating / £108 hot water / £60 lighting), well under half of the £1,072 the owner of an older home can expect to spend – saving, on average, £52 a month, or £629 a year. Just another reason to chose a new Jones Home for your next move.

Jones Homes is delighted to welcome to their new home the first residents at its exclusive Gateford Park development in Worksop.
Due to high levels of interest and demand, Jones Homes welcomed the first residents earlier than planned, and some months before the showhomes are planned to be finished.
As such, Jones Homes has now released for sale a number of properties on phase 2, which are available to buy at pre-showhome prices.
Aesthetically attractive, each home will boast individual characteristics ensuring a varied street scene, synonymous with all Jones Homes developments. With modern lifestyles in mind, the internal arrangement of each home has been carefully considered and designed to feature open plan kitchens, dining and family rooms, studies, utility rooms and en suite shower rooms.
The homes will have an impressive specification as standard that includes a choice of contemporary kitchen complete with integrated appliances, fully tiled bathrooms, including a choice of floor and wall tiles, together with a range of fixtures and fittings that most would consider an optional extra including polished chrome light switches, doorbell and alarm systems to name but a few.
Jones Homes’ newly appointed Sales Advisor, Philippa Ingram, is on hand to help potential purchasers. Having worked in the housebuilding industry for many years, Philippa is perfectly placed to advise buyers, guide them through the build process and welcome them to Gateford Park.
She says: “The location of the development, combined with the stylish selection of new build homes, has certainly attracted high volumes of interest in Gateford Park. It is a true family development and we have taken reservations from many locals, as well as people from further afield who are moving into the area to be close to the motorway links.
“What sets Jones Homes apart from its competitors is the design and specification of our homes, with every aspect carefully considered. With construction progressing well and the first properties already occupied, I am keen to continue developing my relationships with residents as they move in, helping them create and settle in to their dream home.”
Responsible for the construction is Site Manager Andy Sanderson. Working alongside Andy is Assistant Site Manager Matthew Hetherington, who together will ensure the properties are built to high standards and are delivered on time, which also includes the showhomes that are scheduled to open this Summer.
Well located with excellent local amenities, schools and transport links, the development will appeal to families looking for a spacious home, as well as young professionals and commuters wanting to take advantage of village life yet retain easy access to the motorway network and regional train stations.
Prices at Gateford Park start from £274,995 for a four bedroom property and from £379,995 for a five bedroom home. Help to Buy is available at the development.

Jones Homes is delighted to contribute £500 to help Carlton Youth Centre re-design and re-develop its outside area.
The Youth Centre, which is located in Carlton in Lindrick in Worksop, is used by local children aged between eight and 18.
Working in partnership with North Notts College, who are providing Year 3 bricklayers and other students to assist with project, the money donated by Jones Homes has been used to purchase top soil for the garden and laid with turf plus flowers planted creating an attractive outdoor area.
To finish the project, the Youth Centre will build a wall around the garden, and add a giant chess board, plus a pizza oven in the BBQ area, ensuring the space appeals to the boys and girls that utilise the Youth Centre.
With build underway at its Gateford Park development close by, Jones Homes was happy to support Carlton Youth Centre and is looking forward to seeing the end result in the summer, once complete.
Jayne Swift, Sales and Marketing Director at Jones Homes, comments: “We are proud to support innovative and inspiring projects in the local community where we are building new homes and were delighted to contribute financially towards the landscaping at Carlton Youth Centre. The plans for the outside area are fantastic, and will completely transform the space, making it much more attractive and appealing to the youngsters that attend the Youth Centre on a regular basis.
Steve Scotthorne from Carlton Youth Centre adds: “This is a very exciting project for the Youth Centre and we are grateful to Jones Homes for the generous donation. The importance of community engagement from companies based in the area and developers building in the region is crucial to organisations such as ours, as often funding from the local authority doesn’t filter down to where it is needed most.
“The landscaping project is a good example of the County, District and Parish Council, together with Jones Homes, North Notts College and young people working in unison to improve the local amenities. For the youth involved, it is a wonderful opportunity to gain skills for life that they can take away and use in the work place in years to come, and for the Youth Centre and those that utilise it, it is an incredible transformation of our outdoor space.”
Martin Lane, Curriculum Team Leader at North Notts College, says: “Its is our aim to work with and support local communities, helping them meet their needs and giving our students the opportunity for work experience and learning skills that can be used in the workplace. This project allows our students to gain a better understanding of the construction industry, and it enhances what they learn within the workshop.
“We want our students to be involved in projects, such as this, that are here to stay, and take pride in their work. Jones Homes’ support means we can purchase a necessary material that is a vital part of the re-development.”
With its spectacular setting in sought-after Gateford, just one mile from Worksop, Gateford Park is an exclusive development of four and five bedroom detached family homes.

For those who want a larger selection of shops and restaurants on hand – as well as a cinema, Burgess Hill is a market town with plenty to offer. Situated less than 10 miles from Brighton, it is a great location for commuters with two mainline stations and a journey time to London Victoria of about an hour.
