The Jelson Principles

When we started building homes in 1889 we were family-run, based in the East Midlands and used the best traditional building techniques - none of that's changed. Today we take advantage of modern technology and materials but only when they meet our strict standards.

Our principles are as important to us today as they were when we dug our first foundations. They're the reason you can expect reliable homes, genuine customer service and time-proven quality for years to come.

 

TRUST

We believe trust means providing certainty for the home buyer. In an uncertain world we're proud to have given homeowners reliability and reassurance.

HONESTY

Purchasers want to know that the price they see will be the price they pay. We have nothing to hide and pride ourselves on being upfront and honest in everything we do.

QUALITY

We don't compromise on the quality of our homes. Whether it's the traditional brick construction or the windows and kitchens that are built in our very own workshops, purchasers only need to walk through one of our homes to see what sets us apart from most house-builders.

VALUE

A home is one of the most expensive things we can buy, but we provide features such as energy efficient heating and high-spec insulation as standard to ensure it doesn't cost a fortune to run it.

LOCATION

We think long and hard before deciding on a location for our developments. We want to make sure purchasers are well-placed for the things that play an important part in daily life, like schools, work, health amenities and shops.

SERVICE

Purchasers make a big commitment buying a new home and we aim to match that commitment in the support we provide them during and after the sale.

 

It's impossible to predict what houses and the landscape in which they're built will look like 120 years from now, but the principles behind the way we build and the way we support our customers won't have changed.

We believe these principles are the reason we're still here today and the reason why we regularly see the children and grandchildren of Jelson homeowners choose our houses as the place to build their future.
