The basis behind the development is… The basis behind the development is good. There are some minor problems that just shouldn’t be there if things had been done properly

We are thinking of buying a Sigma Home… We are thinking of buying a Sigma Home in Cuckfield and popped down to see their existing show home in Angmering. Although the house types are very different, it was really useful to see the quality of their spec and speak to their Sales Manager, katie who was very helpful. We shall definitely visit Hanlye View with further interest.

We are very happy with the Sigma Home… We are very happy with the Sigma Home that we now have. However, there were a number of issues that arose once we moved in - snagging - the bulk of which have now been sorted. It would have been better had these basic issues been sorted before we moved in as most of them were to do with either not finishing off properly or not even properly installed. Sigma could save itself a lot of extra work is this was dealt with at the build stage!

Concerned that my property is crumbling after 16 months due to the weather The mortar on our front path has begun to crumble within 16 months of us living here. Sigma asked the groundworkers who laid it to check the quality of the mortar and they said it was not defective. Sigma concluded "this will have only been caused by the weather and so this is not a defect". With that verdict, Sigma will not fix it under our two year warranty. Well laid patio pointing should last a decade. Sigma claim to put an "emphasis on quality" and a "commitment to customer satisfaction" but that does not match my experience. Now I'm worried what other parts of my property will crumble and fall apart due to "the weather".

My parents bought a Sigma home My parents bought a Sigma home. Completion was around six months late. When they moved in house was unfinished. They have tackled all the snags but has been down to my elderly parents to spot snags and get them done, often after a lot of feet dragging from Sigma and back and forth. Based on my experience I would avoid buying a home off plan if you can. Maybe Sigma no worse than anyone else but it was very stressful. Positives are location, design and general layout of development which is nice. Workmanship on finish was sadly lacking. Kitchen cheap with moulding on doors already failing. Same experience for most in the development.
