5-star quality homes

We are proud to have been awarded the prestigious 5-star Housebuilder accolade by the Home Builders Federation for the second year running, as well as the Gold Customer Satisfaction Award from In-house Research for nine consecutive years. These independent awards are based on feedback from customers after they have moved into their new build homes and, in 2025, over 95% of our customers would recommend us to a friend.

“This is our third new build now and this is the best experience we've had. From the selection of the plot, sales team, quality of the house, attention to detail and the aftersales from the workers on site, has been brilliant. Every time someone sees me, they ask if everything is alright. I can't fault them.” Scott, Mill View, Dereham.

Being a 5 star HBF housebuilder

The HBF Star Rating Scheme awards builders’ stars for customer satisfaction and Orbit Homes are proud to be the only 5-star-rated housing association in the UK.

The number of stars awarded is based on the homeowner feedback in an independent National New Homes Survey of customer satisfaction. Star ratings are awarded based on the results of one question asked in the National New Homes Survey: Would you recommend your builder to a friend?

Orbit Homes were awarded 5 stars which means 90% or more of our customers are prepared to recommend us to a friend.
