  Scandalous company that simply cannot be trusted. Worrying that they have so many connected companies that have been renamed to try and obscure their links or bury bad reputation and press. (Beaumont Morgan, Qube, Xenia, etc.) The building that I bought a flat in was delayed many times over the years, with a complete lack of communication. When I eventually got my keys, I was essentially living on a building site for a year. It became apparent how much corner-cutting there was. From the petty (using two screws instead of 4 for door handles, that become loose over time), bizarre (using non-standard proprietary L1 lightbulbs that only one company manufacture and sell at ridiculous prices), to the outright dangerous — cheap parts and wiring for the hot water cylinder was done so poorly, it completely burned and melted. I'm just lucky it didn't cause a fire. The cheapest, thinnest paint possible was used and the slightest of touches causes marks. I believe this was intentional so that the connected lettings agency (Qube) can repeatedly overcharge tenants for painting fees, wear-and-tear and cleaning. It's a repeated comment I see from residents here, that despite big chunks being taken out of the deposits, none of it is used for the actual work or cleaning. I was grossly overcharged (£5000+) for the cheapest, flimsiest furniture pack, comprising awful quality items that fall apart. They also cheated me out of the specifcation too. There was supposed to be shelving, and a splashback on the kitchen wall, and karndean style floor tiling throughout the apartment. But none of these were present, or much cheaper and lower quality substitutes were used. Awful quality, thin carpet that just bobbles and wears out quickly. There was space for a gym, but they never bothered to put equipment in. Funnily enough, I've found out that the building is still being advertised to renters with the promise of a gym. The worrying thing is that my building is not the only one. I see a repeated pattern across other sites that they've built and subsequently neglected, or current developments that are stalled. This company should no longer be running, and I would warn anyone to not invest in any of their schemes.

  Absolute disgrace of a company. Build developments and abandon them half way through, leaving investors and live in Landlord in an absolute mess, unable to let their properties but still having to pay extortionate ground rent and service charges. Advertising new developments without completing the ones they’ve already built. Honestly whoever owns this company I hope you one day get what you deserve. Scum of the earth.

  Do not make the mistake to invest with the Fortis Group. They are big on sales talk but completely absent on delivery. After investing GBP150 000 as deposit for a development in Manchester they kept me on a line for years just to confirm now they do not have the funds to build or refund me. This is not what one expect from a big group in a first world country. I would not recommend investing in the UK to anybody and most definitely not with the Fortis Group.

  Have bought off plan with this Scam of a builder in Salford. Project has been delayed by two years and now apparently the builder they’ve used has gone bust. Now the leaseholders face loosing their hard earned cash or having to pay further substantial funds. It has how become apparent the sub builder used by fortis group has the same directors and the new sub builder they have chosen also has the same directors. What a scam. the directors of Fortis Developments Ltd (Company Number: 08209445) were the directors of the building company that has gone in to administration, Beaumont Morgan Developments Limited (Company Number: 07619223) and they are also the directors of the new building company that they wish to appoint to finish the project, M3 Build Ltd (Company Number: 10301052). Having checked with Companies House and the directors for all three companies are Darren McClellan, Kieran Moore and Gareth Morgan. This scam of the highest order must be and will be reported to the highest level. Fortis Group I’d like you to personally contact me. Please provide me with a name of a contact and number. And do not hide this updated post as you’ve done with my original review You as the developer and the company that I have paid should be taking a lead on this and I should not be hearing this from my solicitor. Absolute shambles and scam. While you’ve made millions over the years it’s time you put your hand into YOUR coffers. Please post contact details.

  Absolutely no ownership of their properties, living in the Adelphi Wharf development in Manchester since September feels as though I have been living on a construction site, work materials and rubbish everywhere and no sign that any work has happened in the last 6 months. Moved into a brand new apartment and already have numerous issues with water damage, leaking, broken air circulation systems and no care or respect for common areas - no security or concierge so apartments stolen weekly, damage and anti social behaviour yet nobody seems to make an effort to improve the poor living situation here!
