Crest Nicholson is listed as building new homes in South East, South West, Midlands. Coverage can change, so check current developments and the housebuilder's own site before you reserve.
Crest Nicholson currently sits at #52 in the HBF table on New Build Rankings. That order comes from the latest Home Builders Federation customer satisfaction survey and should be read alongside Trustpilot or Google scores where they exist, not as a verdict that one housebuilder is “best”. Read more in our guides to UK new build developer rankings and How we rank developers.
Like most UK new builds, Crest Nicholson homes are typically sold with a new home warranty. The provider and cover can vary by development, so check the reservation pack rather than assuming a single scheme. Our warranty guide explains what that cover usually includes. Read more in our guide to New Build Warranties Explained.
