The highly coveted awards - run by specialist market research company, In House Research - are awarded based on independent customer feedback and found that Stewart Milne Group scored an impressive 93% customer satisfaction rating.

This is the ninth year that the group has been awarded Gold for its customer satisfaction levels in at least one of its divisions, and the fourth consecutive year that it has claimed the top spot across all regions.

Craig McKay, head of customer services at Stewart Milne Homes, Scotland, said: “Building homes is the foundation of what we do, but our core ethos is centred around creating places for people and ensuring utmost customer satisfaction.

“The whole team at Stewart Milne Group is incredibly proud to achieve this accolade, particularly because it is based on direct feedback from our customers. It highlights the excellent standard of work delivered by our ambitious and forward-thinking team.

“It’s important to us that we continue to meet and exceed the needs of our customers and the introduction of new services such as our Augmented Home Reality Demonstration does exactly that. It allows customers to conduct their new home demonstrations at a day and time suitable for them and the family. As a result, we have seen our satisfaction levels increase to 95% within this area.

“We’re consistently looking at how we can evolve as consumer habits change which enables us to enhance our offering to customers – a reason why we have maintained a high-performance of customer service over the last nine years – and we look forward to building on this success.”
