Taylor Wimpey has a better reputation than Persimmon and Bovis but not much better.
In the end, you will be running the lottery of whether the site managers cares or not.
Ask if he won an NHBC award this year.
Ask those that have already moved in, knock on doors if you have to.
Above all, don't use their recommended or suggested solicitors under any circumstances.
Don't move in in December, and get it written in the contract that your professional snagging inspector can have access to inspect your new home at least 2 weeks before you legally complete. If this is a problem for Taylor Wimpey, don't buy!
