Couldn’t ask for more - high commendation
We have just entered construction stage this week. From start to finish of the pre-construction phase we have had nothing but positive experiences with Clarendon Homes in QLD. We are not only first time builders, but first home owners, and we felt incredibly supported through the entire process of the initial phase of building our dream home. From our sales consultant to our customer service consultant, we could not have have wished for more friendly, helpful or knowledgeable people. Working with the partners at our colour selection was also a joy, and a well streamlined process. So far, costs have been as expected. We look forward to continuing to work with Clarendon throughout the construction phase.

Pre-Construction Review
First visited the Greenhills Beach display home in early December 2022, and then the Sylvania Display Home when the sales team moved there. House selection and initial site analysis was very handled. Sales people were very informative and helpful, hand editing plans on the spot. Paid initial deposit 17-Dec-2019, through to full contract on 17-Feb-20. Initial sales quote costing, through to contract price were almost identical. Contract appointment was very well managed, and contract presenter through to customer service consultant were very helpful, and provided us with good ideas to modify the house plans to our requirements.

Quality house and good service.
From beginning to the end, the staffs provide nice services. The quality of the house is good. Some time has some reason to delay, the staff providing nice explanation and solve the problem. Overall, the cost and quality is mostly acceptable. I already recommended my friend to use Clarendon to build their house. Good company and good service.

Pre-construction Stage
We've just completed our pre-construction stage and wanted to say a big thank you to our CSC [name removed]. She was amazing and really has made the journey so far less stressful. Always going beyond to provide prompt answers and is really knowledgeable. The main pain point for me was that we were limited in certain choices like floating cupboards in the bathrooms (which I thought was not a big deal as we have had these installed in previous renovations). They do offer it but only at a huge cost - so much that it isn't feasible to even entertain. Also other cosmetic things which should come standard but isn't. Other than that it has been a great journey so far. Hopefully our construction journey will be just as pleasant.

Wonderful experience with amazing support.
We entered the building experience as complete novices. We really did not know just how intensive the process would be, however, we found ourselves 100% supported through the Pre-Construction process. We are now set to commence the build. Our journey with Clarendon so far, has been a positive experience. Clarendon welcomed every query/question we had and never once did we feel like a burden, the staff were incredibly patient and took the time to clarify every query we had. We are looking forward to the next stage. Thank you to everyone at Clarendon that we have had the pleasure to deal with. So very much appreciated. BA00065424

So excited for the build to start!
My experience with Clarendon has been absolutely amazing. The customer service we have received through the whole design and documentation process has been fantastic. My partner and I could not feel more secure building with such a great builder. The colours appointment where we got to pick the interior and exterior design was not stressful at all and the options we had to choose from were great. I highly recommend building with Clarendon!

My CSC has been great, very professional. She promptly responded to my queries and provided me with documents and information relating to my DA approvals and guided me through process of construction. That helped me a lot as I don't know much. It is my fist home build. She is very pleasant and friendly. I highly recommended her.

Best Customer Service
Job No. 29913895: We have decided to build with Clarendon after shopping for lot of good builders. I had a great journey till.now and the best part is the communication. Starting from sales, tender, colors, CSC, everything was so organized. My CSC was one of the best persons we have worked with in Clarendon. She kept us up to date on the information we required and she used to respond to our queries in minutes, what else can you expect when the customer service from her is so wonderful. I have also visited Clarendon office with out an appointme...Read more
nt and she met me to clarify some of the things with out any complaints. All our changes were addressed by her with due diligence and we saved plenty of time because of her smart way of working .. Also the other people that I worked including Color consultant, who exhibited great patience as I asked her lot of basic questions, but that's where the difference is, as a first home builder I don't know all the things. My color consultant made sure that I have all the information before my selection. Very happy customer till now and I Highly recommend Clarendon.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Great experience - would recommend
We are excited to be going to construction today, and the journey with Clarendon has been excellent. We are novices to the whole process but the Clarendon staff in Queensland have been fantastic in assisting us with putting together our selections and very patient in guiding us through the many steps to get to this stage. There were a couple of issues we raised, and these were quickly and professionally handled. I'm glad we chose Clarendon.

Frustrated and disappointed with the inefficient after sale service
Clarendon built our house in Sydney and we moved in to the new house in Aug 2017. Even after more than 2.5 years after moving in, some of the problems reported in 2017, have not been fixed yet.
More than 30 defects (problems with security system, air conditioning, leaking down pipes, improper tiling, water leaks, etc.) were identified during the warranty inspection. The service of the Clarendon after sale service was very poor and well below the expectation. They hardly answer when call them and barely call back when leave a message. Receiving...Read more

[name removed] was awesome!
[name removed] from Clarendon Homes made our interactions with our home builder incredibly easy. Building a new home is an inherently stressful time and we couldn’t have been happier to have [name removed] guiding us through it. [name removed] is unfailingly bubbly, helpful, polite and personable, and having her on the other end of the phone gave us confidence that our project was progressing as quickly as it could. When we did encounter hiccoughs, they were always sorted with minimum fuss and in very short timeframes.
We can’t thank [name removed] enough for taking us through this process, and we would highly recommend her for anyone thinking about building their new home.

Sub standard building materials & equally poor customer service
Future customer beware of Clarendon. I am a perfect example of Clarendon customer who was promised heaven but delivered hell. Since we moved into our 'dream house' me and my wife have pointed out endless Clarendon's building defects. How can a certified builder screw up the foundation slab so bad? The wood work has been 3rd grade and cracks have appeared within months. Paint job is so horrific that clearly shows unskilled labor employed. Clarendon admitted in screwing up our drainage. The garage door has such wide gaps that my arm can go throug...Read more
h. They have a standard answer of "within tolerance". The gyp rock ceiling line is all over the house. They are 3rd grade builder for the price of 1st grade. Their customer service stone walls you for every issue. Customer service and their manager has stopped replying to my emails. You just get a standard auto reply of your emails but don;t except anything more. They are great in promising but very poor in delivering. Clarendon relies on just getting the customer's signature on the dotted line and since then it will be all down hill. All previous customers, please hire an independent expert home construction inspector and you will be in for a surprise. Very unprofessional customer service. I invite all future customer's to my house to show the poor job done by Clarendon. I strongly suggest to go ahead with other builders who are a fraction of Clarendon's cost.1 comment

Excellent service from Customer Service Consultant
We are in the pre-construction phase of our dream home. We have been very happy with the help that has been provided by [name removed] at Clarendon Homes.

A big thanks for all your help [name removed]!

Pre Construction service has been excellent
We are about to begin construction on our home and have been very happy with the service provided to this point. Clare has been excellent, helping us along the way and always being available to give advice. She has made the whole process really easy and much less stressful than it could have been. Thanks Clare!

Hi, our Clarendon Kirribilli 49 double storey was built in 2009. We are exploring the removal of a 350mm wide x 2100mm high vertical block wall which is constructed between the family room rear window and sliding door. In order to install a folding bifold door to connect the family room with alfresco we require to remove the window, the wall and sliding door. How do I gain engineering approval from Clarendon to approve removal of without jeopardising structural integrity?

Why you are unable to refund my tender deposit of $5k even though i pointed you more than 25 mistakes in tender document in comparison to sales agreement and requested cancellation within 24 hrs. Moreover i was never told about any cancellation charges before signing the tender. You have no rights to keep the tender deposite as you have done no work after we paid the money.
$5K means a lot to us. Please refund, i have been chasing since 5th Feb 2020.
