Environmental and construction approach

The company presents itself under the concept "Climate Considerate" and states that it has incorporated air source heat pumps, as well as increasing solar panel surface area and insulation levels, to achieve homes that generate as much prime energy as they consume. According to its description, prime energy is the regulated energy used for lighting, heating and hot water, calculated based on a typical family lifestyle as reflected in each home's EPC certificate.

The design of its developments includes spaces to work, rest and play, open green spaces and public art. The company mentions among its features floor-to-ceiling windows to maximise natural light and specific spaces for working from home.

Buying, customer care and land

Newland Homes offers a tailor-made viewing service and has moving schemes that help buyers sell their current home in order to move into one of its developments. The company partners with Trustpilot so that customers can post reviews and make informed decisions.

The website's contact structure separates sales, customer care and land management channels. The firm also maintains dedicated sections for land search and public enquiries about future developments.

Track record and recent activity

The company dates its beginnings to 1991 and maintains a timeline of milestones on its website. Among the news items featured are the opening of the new Lambrok Mead development in Trowbridge, presented as a new neighbourhood with benefits for the local community, and a Recycle Week campaign in Tetbury to give books a second life through a "Little Free Library" at The Limes.
