Customer Satisfaction Survey

A new home customer satisfaction survey was introduced in response to recommendations in the Barker Review of Housing Supply in 2004. It was created for new home buyers with the sole purpose of helping to drive up standards in the industry. The HBF Star Rating scheme awards participating builders a star rating based on the survey results (accumulated from a customer’s opinion of the developer on their help, advice, design, quality, and customer service processes), which helps participating builders identify areas they can improve. These range from one to five stars.
