Quality Homes and Quality Builders
Extremely pleased with the quality of the build, the quality of the people, and the quality of workmanship. Very communicative throughout the entire build and were quick to pick up on any little issues and follow up to make sure that we were 100% satisfied with how it was handled.
Would definitely recommend building with GJ Gardner Home Tamworth

Very impressed
This was our fourth build over 47 years and from talking to the sales rep to completion the whole experience went extremely well. Wade our supervisor kept us well informed and nothing was too much trouble to get sorted, also the office staff were always helpful and very approachable,all in all very very happy.

Soo happy
We decided to build at a very sad time in our lives and had great support and advise at every step in process, from first steps to beyond completion . I cannot express that gratitude for that support, from office people, salesperson, supervisors and tradesmen, a great team at Wodonga office . Great job to all !

Worst Experiance and the Worst Outcome. Incomplete work 8 months on Since hand over
We wanted to build our Home just as anyone would. We wanted to build with Melbourne North (Essendon) because we are in a suburb 5 minutes from Essendon. But due to a General Manager ineptly managing the Victorian franchise we were forced to build with their franchise 26 km away in Bundoora. This builder is new and hasn't built many homes. This was the beginning of our nightmares that lasts to this very day.
The build was just a rush job. I suspected something foul was going on and brought in my building inspector. The builder didn't want me to...Read more
have my inspector onsite. I was repeatedly quoted contract terms and the builder even threatened to stop work if I brought in my inspector. They claimed they will not fix anything the inspector picked up (all in emails). They changed the selections we made for all most all the items. We paid for fittings and upgrades but at the last minute, they said they were out of stock and we got something else. Therefore we paid for something ended up with something else. Downright ripoff! Worst of all there are still unfinished work 8 Months after handover. The List of issues we have discovered, I am sure there are much more we just can't see and is now covered up. 1. Laundry door is completely broken 2. Sharp Edges on the balcony left unattended (total disregard for safety)Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Our Forever Home
Our experience building our forever home with GJ Gardner in Ballarat, has been nothing short of brilliant! The entire team worked together like a well oiled machine to enable a trouble free experience with a magnificent outcome. We were kept informed and expertly guided through every part of the building process. At handover we felt that we should be giving the gifts to GJ rather than they to us.

Fantastic first build. Fantastic first experience.
This build was mine and my fiances first build. Heidi kept updated weekly on the progress of the build. Britt was excellent to deal with in regards to the floor plan and selections. Rod's communication was excellent, he met us at the site quite often to discuss the happenings of the build. All our questions were answered well. During the build we hit a couple of issues with our soil report which meant we needed extra footings put into the concrete, and the septic needed extra work. But these were at no fault of GJ, it was simply where we chose to build! We admittedly went over our budget, but again no fault of GJ, we made many changes to the original plan :)

We chose GJ Gardner Homes Riverland due to the solid reputation of the professional & friendly team in the Renmark office, combined with the high quality local tradesman. They guided us through the minefield of options available these days for all parts of the build, including colour selections. We honestly couldn’t have done it without them & are thrilled with the final result.

Good Salesperson Bad Build
Salesperson was good and had good solutions to pre-building queries. I have had an ongoing problem with little interest or follow up shown by any staff to fix or check on it after some rectifications to fix it have been done. The roofing coy have been back 5 times to fix another problem. I will never use or recommend this builder again.

Dream team built my dream home
From start to finish, from the initial design consultation with Kane, right through to the handover with Peter and the team we could not fault one step of the process. Dave, our site supervisor was fantastic, as were all of the trades we encountered on the building site. Nothing was an issue, they always went above and beyond my expectations. Could not be happier with the final outcome, which is the home of my dreams.

inding the best possible land site that would be the best fit for my family to live. From the start of the process through to the end we had had nothing but excellent service and attention from each and every member of the team to ensure our build was what we had always dreamed of. The team always went above and beyond to help even with the smallest of details as G J's really pride themselves on delivering the best quality possible and me and my family could not be any happier with the final result. The whole team made the experience special and enjoyable. Jay provided weekly updates and photos each week and was always in contact whenever we needed a question answered and her happy friendly smile and positive attitude always greeted us at the front counter whenever we would drop into the office. Marilyn and Maree in accounts were terrific and incredibly helpful and a pleasure to deal with and always willing to assist anyway possible. Jeremy our onsite project manager was terrific to deal with and was able to help us make onsite decisions to ensure we had an incredible build. His insight and building knowledge help us make necessary changes to ensure we had a quality build. From the experience we have had from beginning to finished product we can say that G J's use the best quality materials and the best qualified tradespeople who know their craft inside and out and deliver to the highest standards. Building our dream forever house with G J'S has been one of the best decisions we made and would certainly not hesitate in recommending them to anyone wishing to build a new home, as I have found Dan & Nat and their wonderful team build homes for their clients not just a house.1 comment

Building the house for the first time, I think I made the best choice possible
I came to GJ Gardner because the original builder after 2 months of back and forth decided to pull out of the build. Simon and the team went way above what I would consider as great service to make sure that the build went as smoothly as possible. They knew that I had to complete the build by a certain date and eventhough there were problems beyond their control (gas, power, etc...), they were truly amazing in keeping me up date and delivering on time. The quality of all the work is excellent, and 12 months in, there are virtually no issues at ...Read more
all. I had everything going against me in the build, from the soil report, utilities, etc but I cannot express how great the team were in managing this, coordinating and solving everything. Minus the variations I asked for (which were all accommodated even during the construction), the costs were as agreed in the contract. If I had to build again, I would not hesitate to go directly to the Simon, Anyeta and Hayden.1 comment
