How it works

A review tells the whole story — moving-in day, and how your builder behaves once the money’s changed hands. Under five minutes.

1
Rate your experience
Start with the stars. Review at any stage — just got the keys, years in, or still waiting on a delayed handover — and update it anytime.
2
We check it’s really you
You privately confirm you’re a genuine resident. That’s what keeps the record authentic and fake-free — and your details stay private.
3
It goes on the record
Published verified but anonymous, as “Verified resident, [county].” Builders get a free right of reply.
Why you can trust it

Reviews you can actually trust.

Verified, not troll-fodder
Every reviewer proves they live at the property — so no fakes, no rivals, and no builders reviewing themselves. The record is real.
🔒
Anonymous, even to your builder
You’re verified privately, then published only as “Verified resident, [county].” Your name, address and home never appear.
⚖️
Good and bad, both sides
Champion a builder who did right by you, or hold a poor one to account — across the whole journey, not just moving-in day. Builders get a right of reply.
🥇
Independent and free
The first buyer-side review platform built only for UK new-build homes. No builder funding, no ads — just the honest picture you wish you’d had.

Our story

Why we built Rate My New Build

Ben, founder of Rate My New Build, on a new-build site

Rate My New Build started with my father. His new-build home was the reward for a lifetime of hard work — but it was full of problems, and putting them right became a battle our family is still living with.

It isn’t anti-builder — the best ones take real pride and deserve to stand out from the few who don’t. You can read a thousand reviews for a £10 gadget, but for the biggest purchase of your life, all you get is glossy brochures. We’re here to change that — fairly, for everyone.

Your questions, answered

The things every reviewer wants to know first.

It sounds like a contradiction, but think of voting at a polling station: you show ID to prove you’re a real voter, but no one ever sees how you voted. Same here — you prove to us privately that you’re a real resident (that’s the “verified” part), then your review is published with your identity stripped out, shown only as “Verified resident, [county].” So we know you’re genuine; the public and the builder never know it’s you. Verified to us, anonymous to everyone else.

Praise a great builder, or get a poor one on the record. Either way, help build the UK’s first independent new-build review platform — free, anonymous, under five minutes.
