Housebuilders open offices

Lanarkshire housing developments have reopened for customers.

Following the latest Scottish Government guidance which removes the restriction on non-essential home moves and supporting the return of activities related to the sale and purchase of homes, Taylor Wimpey began a phased approach to reopening their sales office and show homes last week.

They are available to Lanarkshire customers by appointment only.

A new set of protocols for all sales offices and show homes has been developed alongside new safety measures. These include the installation of Perspex screens and marker guides for social distancing.

Show home viewings will be unaccompanied and only for a maximum of two customers from the same household at a time viewing each home.

Audrey Ross, Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey West Scotland said:“Reopening our sales offices and show homes is a significant step both staff and customers. I want to assure the public we are not prepared to compromise on health and safety, which is why we will be operating on a strict appointment-only basis.

“I am confident that our revised health and safety protocols and guidelines mean that we can operate safely, and I know our sales executives are looking forward to safely welcoming customers to our developments once again.

“I also understand that some customers may still prefer not to visit us in person. Our sales team has been working remotely over the past few weeks, helping customers through each stage of the homebuying journey and we will continue to offer remote appointments.”
