[Resolved]  Antony Builders — Bad Performance

Address: Chennai, Tamil Nadu

I booked apartment in Glitters. Very Very bad construction....Very delay in hand over. nearly 2 years delay. still. I am very much affected by Antony builders. No Quality of work. Once your registration is completed..that's it..you are done. no one will hear you..you have to cry,,and sleep less nights...

Agreement is 100% favor to builders. Work is completed with the non-experience people..even the room is not like in the measurement mentioned in the sketch.

If you ask for any additional work..it's very costly..even for small extra work you have to pay more..

There is no communication between the workers..then will keep on change the engineers...so when you request a work they don't notify in paper at all...

VERY VERY BAD BUILLDER. PLEASE DONT SUFFER IN FUTURE.

I too booked apartment in brooke. but that is totally not good. water will come inside house in raining season from roof...totally bad construction...they wasted all the amount. it looks the apartment cost is very less..but if you go for any small additional work also they will charge very high..and not at all customer friendly..PLEASE AVOID THIS BUILDER...you have to beg even for small work...
Yes. Perfect. I too Agree. I am from Glitters :( One of the worst appartment from Antony. They does'n know to construct a single room. They are not at all a choice for buying a apartment.

They concentrate more on how to save money by giving low quality. So its waste of expecting even a medium quality work from them. You can't expect a high quality.

They have workers who doesn't know to build house. So he will not bargain with Antony builder. Low wages is enough to these workers. Then how the building will be?

Just Imagine, there is nothing straight that they have constructed. Even the walls. Every thing looks like PISA TOWER.

These builders are not supposed to be in this business and I would like to stop the people buying / booking on these builders.

I am going to publish this page link in my official interanet site. So that people from my company will not book.

let me know the email ids from each other locations like (brooks, orchid, Glitters etc., ) I'll be sending the mail to the marketing people on our initiatives.
Very very true...

1. Gets more money at the initial stages itself.
2. Treats you like a customer only until they get your money. Any changes in your house you have to shell out the huge sum they ask for (even for very small changes)
3. Layout/plan are worst. eg: pillars will be protruding out of your wall, in the middle of your hall. and worse, the pillar will not be flat and you will have to call the people n number of time to make it even. Too many common walls between houses.
4. No quality in construction except that they use bricks instead of hollow blocks (not sure abt how they do for their new peojs)
5. No co-ordination between the office and the engineers on site
6. Site engineer runs away and new one comes every 2months. Everything that you told/discussed with him has to be done again.
7. Each block/house will be sub-contracted to another sub standard contractor who employs, i would say "TRAINS" his employees.
8. People at office do not respond to your emails and worst, they don't even see your email.
9. They promise you too much (park, gym, party hall etc) at budget price and end up even without a quality building.
10. What is in agreement will be changed even without your notice. eg. your car parking will be allotted to someone w/out your notice/approval. and worse, the parking lot will not be of the same size is what they mentioned
11. Employs very old drainage system. And worse, they share that with their other phases without your knowledge.

AND ON TOP OF ALL THESE,
YOUR FLAT WILL LEAK EVERYWHERE ONCE THE PEOPLE ON TOP OF YOU START USING THEIR BATHROOMS OR IF IT IS RAINING. when i say leak, it really rains all throught out your hall, bed rooms, everywhere.

Visit all antony apartments before you buy one from them. or at least, the one in nanmangalam where my friend is still having problems even after 2 years after occupying it (they haven't yet completed it).
Agreed with all the points mentioned above...Very Clever in Every Move ...Finish off the Registration in early stages to get all your money and make u Suffer in paying EMI's [ in case of Loan]. Engineers change every month to month. Marketing People are so dumb that they will just listen what we talk and then after that the nothing will be there in action.

Bring in Cheap labours and Resouces they will try to convince you with limited options wat they have like choosing a Tile. For a Name Sake they would call you one day to choose a TILE and they will say we have only two tile Variety and ask us to choose one :(.

Am gonna add a point on their another Marketing Gimmik-Free Furnishing .They will not come down any penny from the proposed Flat price, rather they will say "Sir we furnish you for so and so amount ".

And the same funda will repeat while fixing the design/drawing etc for furniture. Imagine for a 8 Flat Building [G+2 F] they would take nearly 1.5 Years. In my Case OCT-2010 to till now . Am still waiting for my hand over.

Previously the acknowledgement receipt would be delivered the next business work day :), Now a days i struggled to get my final payment receipt for almost one month.

I[censored] watch out the reciept/bills they started Removing the Tag-"Unga Veedu Unga Budgetla" and now they have grown to build villas in VLCHRY and ECR.

As a consumer We are happy that the associated builder is Growing but they should not take the old customers GRANTED in term of QUALITY.

The above mentioned statement are listed of my own experience during the construction. Am awaiting to see the problems in maintanence after hand over :(.

Antony Customer Since Feb-2011

Yes, I too agree, They keep on changing the managers too. So, When you book it will be Mr.A, and When you submit your modification requests It would be Mr.B in that place, While you see the apartment not being built as you asked and contact them It would be Mr.C answering the complaint & he would say He has no idea about your request. Before the handover of flat Mr.X will be there in the job & when you go for maintenance related issues in the apartment There sits Mr.Z who knows nothing about the history started from Mr.A

I agree on another point of cheap labour and frequently changing Supervisors too..

I should Mention one point, As for as the layout I like the plan & space they provide comparing to other builders but They are not good at execution. I mean, The top management might be good in their vision, But the people who make it happen in the field are not up to the mark.

I have started to get a feeling of, "YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR"

fyi: I am a customer of Antony builders too.
Agree with all the comments posted above.
Very very poor quality of work and the way they delay even the furnitures we order with them will show how they delay the project.
We ordered furniture and after waiting for more than 1 week and daily calls to them to check on the progress, they come back stating that the particular model of the furniture is no longer built. Then why the hell they still have them in the display without stating a word about this.
Its a very long wait with Antony be it the building or the furniture and as others mentioned above, they keep changing their managers and engineers every week. Pathetic response to any of our queries and I booked the house in April 2011 and still waiting for its hand over :-(
Some serious measures should be taken against the builder for sure.
I'm also a worst affected customer of Antony Builders. I'm residing @ Pathway, Urapakkam. I also faced most of the complaints discussed in this thread. Important thing is worst quality of material they use to construct, from brick to paint, from door to switches everything is low rated quality materials and also bad finishing of work. Their tactics is frequently changing the Site engineer, so whenever a new person came we have to start all from the beginning. It will really frustrate us. Recently they took out night security facility without informing any o[censored]s, even though we reminded to marketing several times they haven't provided new security, unfortunately one of our neighbor lost his bike. And one thing i want to beg to people who reads this, please come and visit our flats before buying from Antony's any of the projects. I saw lot of people booking in their new project near urapakkam, really i cant stop them from doing it. They will provide 10% lesser price than other builders in that locality and they will show that difference in the quality. Don't think of spending extra 4 / 5 lakhs with other builders. Go for better quality.
Same Blood
I am willing to select the less than one (1) star. Because my rating is not bad, very very bad. But in chennai many of the builders are like that only. Because in chennai is consider as a Real - Estate buyer market. So all the decisions are taken by the builder. Agreement also favor of builder side. From this level now Bangalore & Hyderabad cities are little bit changed. So kind attention to investment guys "Please buy your investement flats in any other cities. Not in Chennai.
The finishing of flats is not good as expected, the windows and doors finishing is very poor. But you should agree that the space provided for common areas is good. We should accept that the rate at which they offered was lowest among the builders during 2010. My only worry is concerned with STP and the quality of companies they have chosen for STP instalation or be it the GYM equipments provided.
I do not want to narrate my bad experience with them as I see a methodology in cheating the customers, going by the posts shown above. I've booked their flats in Guduvanchery and they not only disregard the customer's requests but also display an absolute arrogant attitude.

Waiting for the hand over of my flat and I am sure there are violations. Will certainly take them to courts as there was enough evidence to show their poor customer service and certain to have plan deficiencies.
Agree on the point. No worth for words. Poor customer service. Fake promises and least bothered about customer requirements and grievances.

Post handover, there is no response for un completed activities.
I am also one among the cheated customer by Antony. If some one know how to take this builder legally please provide the details.
Offering budget apt is not an eligibility to compromise quality. At the end of the day, it should be at least a house. What Antony builders construct and deliver is not a house - its a leaky roof and cracking walls.

If there is a system in place where the house payment can be done after 1 year of residence, then no body will dare to pay this builders - instead return the house.

There is no exaggeration nor any overlooking, but all practical comments.

Consider going to some clean builder.
THANKS, I ABOUT TO BUY ONE FROM ANTONY
I had purchased a flat in a project at Antony's Monreve, I had never experienced such a good reception of customer in any other companies. The Executives were very co-operative each and every time I had contacted. They are also very transperent in the commercial terms. I have realy enjoyed the relationship with Antony projects. As a customer I strongly recommend Antony Projects.
Do not go with the fraud company, they never deliver the flat in time and construction is not good . Even they never respond if you call
Very bad, never deal with this guys, who does not have a promising business
I agree that they delay in project but not too long, even if they delay they complete all the work with the satisfaction.
