Awesome Home Build Experience with G.J. Gardner team on the Sapphire Coast!
We have just taken ownership of our beautiful new home built by G.J. Gardner in Merimbula on the Sapphire Coast of NSW. We couldn't be happier!
The experience was seamless from first contact until completion, and the staff at G.J. were friendly, courteous, and professional at every stage of the build.
The build quality is excellent, and budget estimations were closely adhered to - so, no nasty surprises!
We highly recommend choosing G.J. Gardner on the Sapphire Coast if you are looking to have a quality home built on time and within budget.

No fuss, on budget, on time and attention to detail
The whole re-build experience after the Tathra Bushfire was conducted in a friendly, compassionate and professional manner. Nothing was too much trouble and communication was key. Our experience at the Display Home with Tony and Jodie was a pleasure and this lead to continuing enjoyable contact with John, Rose, Megan, Dean and Paul. A couple of minor issues since moving in have been dealt with speedily and resolved. We are loving living in our new home and recommend GJ Gardner to anyone and everyone we speak to!

A new home to make new memories
Thank you John, Rosie, Ian, Jodie, Megan, Paul and Dean and the all the builders from the team at GJ Gardner Sapphire Coast. We are home! All this has happened before the first anniversary of the catastrophic Tathra and surrounds bush fire on 18 March 2018. We are the first family to return home which is excellent for Tathra and the surrounding community. The build was stress free and we were in communication all the way. We are so pleased with the quality workmanship and any questions were answered timely manner. Such an organised and pr...Read more
ofessional company to deal with and we have already recommended GJ's to others who are rebuilding. The application lodged to Council was complete and no need for follow up which did not cause any delays. We felt like we are a part of the GJ family. What a great bunch of people! We thank John for assisting us with the rebuild and the suppliers that were generous to us in our situation. We have never built a home before . Thank you very much for your empathy, support, care and friendship in our journey to get us home back to beautiful Tathra. Looking forward to our new memories to create in our new home. Steve and Loretto Mills.1 comment

Building to Perfection
Working with John, Rose and the team has been an absolute pleasure. Our home has recently been completed and is outstanding. John and the team were responsive from the moment we made contact with them. This was impressive given how busy they were, as we had seen many GJs sites around our area. They reworked our design with us, and came up with a much better custom design which used the space we had far more intelligently. The key things we wanted to achieve with the build of the house were a) that we optimise the view that we had available...Read more
on the block we had, and b) that the house had plenty of open plan space. We achieved outstanding results on both counts due to the way the GJs team worked with us to get the house right. Throughout the build we were kept informed every week of progress via phone and text messages with photos. We were very grateful for this given we live 3 hours from our build site and couldn't be there to view progress all that frequently. The build ran to schedule, on budget and the quality of the finish is excellent. Every person on the team seemed to really care about the way they build their houses, and how they interact with customers. We always felt valued as customers and that nothing was too much trouble. There were only a few minor issues throughout the build, and they were all quickly and completely resolved by the GJs team. We have had many people comment on how 'lucky' we have been with the build. We don't believe the quality and timeliness of the build has been due to luck. It has been a result of the way GJs Sapphire Coast operate; they are a well run organisation, that commits to their customers and delivers really, really well. To say we are happy is an understatement really. The whole experience has been amazing and we would highly recommend John, Rose, Paul, Dean, Ian, Megan and the rest of the GJs team to anyone who is looking to build on the Sapphire Coast. They make it so easy and nothing is too much trouble. What more can you ask for really!1 comment

Dear John, Rose and all the team
Thank you so much for such an amazing build! The experience was professional, friendly and faultless right from the word go, from the display home to the final walk through.
John, you were able to solve our design challenges and provide a solution that was innovative and practical.
We love everything in the house, the finishes are so beautiful and we have enjoyed making the house into our home.

An Incredible Journey
John & Rose Smith put their heart and soul into this business. They have built an incredible team of staff and tradies who did everything possible to make the build a positive and enjoyable experience. The quality of all the work, the timeliness, experienced and professional advice, attention to even the smallest detail, the friendliness and interest of all their staff and their generosity has been the best I've experienced over many years of building and renovating homes. From the initial design brief and site assessment to the selection of ma...Read more

We can't thank the team at GJ Gardner Sapphire Coast enough for building our perfect home - From the very first contact with their wonderful consultant Rebecca over the 'phone to our first meeting with her and her colleague Tony and to our final handover day we had absolutely the most seamless building experience. (Tony even identified our block of land when we thought we had just about run out of options!) The selection process for fixture and fittings, colours etc. was a great experience and we were offered great support from Rose when maki...Read more
ng our choices from an extensive range of quality hardware. The construction management team of Ron and Dean kept us up to date every step of the way, their team of tradesmen were professional and completed each aspect of the build to a very high standard (and on time!). GJ Gardner Sapphire Coast was recommended to us by satisfied clients and we have no hesitation in passing our recommendation on to anyone looking to build in this area. I'm sure there is so much more I could say but thank you John and Rose and all the team for job well done!!! Now to turning a house into a home.......1 comment

We couldn't be happier
From start to finish we felt that choosing GJ to build our new home was the best decision we could have made.
The whole process was stress free thanks to the GJ team, especially Ron who was so easy and friendly to deal with and happy to answer any questions or concerns throughout the build.
The quality of our home is exceptional with no shortcuts taken. We love it!
Thank you, John, Rose, Ian, Megan and Ron for everything!

Top class finish by a professional team
One week into our new home and couldn't be more pleased. Gj's have a great management system and most importantly, even better project management. Deliivered our wonderful new house on time and to budget. While we had couple of small issues ie the brick company mixed up the brick delivery gj's responded immediately and fixed the problem. It's the little things and the can do attitude that made the process so stress free. Quality home and finish which all clients expect but often do not get. So a big thank you to all the team and Ron (project ma...Read more

Our dream home
My husband and I decided to go with GJ Gardner sapphire coast, Pambula for our home, at the time of shopping around they were the most helpful company around. They made us feel at ease and part of the Gj family from the very beginning. After thinking we wanted different house designs we finally settled on the fernbank, and we couldn't be any more happier, all the tradies have done an amazing job building our family home, Ron (our site supervisor) made sure we were absolutely happy with every stage, if there was a slight fault he was onto it ver...Read more

An Excellent Team and Excellent Result
This family home is a forever home for three generations and we were all very clear on the elements of design and functionality wanted, materials and the quality of finish we expected of the builder. We had carried out due diligence on the franchise and G.J.Gardner Home - Sapphire Coast and were pleased with the verbal reviews and examples of previous work; of which there are many locally and John and Rose were happy to identify. The house is a complicated house modified and personalized from a G.J.Gardner design and the result is outstanding w...Read more
ith an excellent attention to detail on a multitude of areas. While John and Rose deserve the ultimate credit, the team assembled in both their office at Pambula and the build site were terrific and they always took time to ask if we were pleased or if there was anything we wanted to achieve as our vision transformed into reality. We made many observations along the way and resolved issues amicably and through mutual understanding of the contract process and patience in delivering the contract. Ron Stork is an excellent, approachable site manager. All the trades were excellent in their attention to detail and functionality. The contract is a standard NSW HIA contract and a lot of pre-signing attention goes into defining all the variables and responsibilities for both sides. There has been no conflict and this is a major area of satisfaction for us. The fixed price was met with variations discovered along the way, negotiated to a successful outcome. We would not hesitate to recommend them for any building project and are very proud of our forever home.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

GJ Gardner Pambula NSW
Before we approached GJ Gardener we had difficulty finding a builder who was willing to listen to us or that we could afford. We have a difficult block and had definite ideas on what we wanted and so needed a custom built home which GJ’s were happy to provide.
During both the design and building processes our requirements were listened to and at times GJ’s were able to suggest better alternatives and their input was greatly appreciated.
The selection of colours and internal fittings can be a bit daunting but with Rose’s guidance everything...Read more

Our Dream Home - at beautiful Tura Beach
We are delighted to be writing this letter of recommendation with respect to our new home you recently built for us at Tura Beach.
Our choice of a custom built courtyard home on a 2000m2 block was readily taken on by GJ Gardner Sapphire Coast with some slight modifications – to our mutual benefit.
From the outset, your friendly approach put us both at ease and the professional service you provided from initial discussions, through the quotation stage, and finally the actual building, was exceptional.
We were extremely impressed with your eff...Read more

GJ Gardner Homes - Sapphire Coast
We just moved into our completed home in Eden NSW built by GJ Gardner Sapphire Coast. It is the first house we have built and we could not be happier with the finished product. The team at Sapphire Coast were friendly, professional and helped us to create a home that fulfilled all of our expectations.
The attention to detail was impressive. We looked into other project home builders in the area and not one compared to GJ. John and Rose run a fantastic business down here.
Attention to detail. Fantastic high end standard inclusions.

GJ Gardner Homes - Sapphire Coast Pambula
My wife and I are happy to write a review regarding our recently completed new home as the entire process has been simple and stress free. Having built 3 times before with other builders this was not what we were expecting. Also, this time we were still living in Melbourne during the build, some 600km away, and we needed to trust our builder. I am happy to say we were not disappointed. We received updates every Friday including photos and only actually visited to inspect the works on 2 occasions. The main things that led to this positive experi...Read more
ence were: The company's ability to sit down with you initially, displaying patience, flexibility, and offering sound advice on the design of the home, without the hard sell or the up sell. The standard inclusions were far above what you would expect and the only upgrade we chose was a free-standing bath. There were no nasty surprises during the build and we were shown the same level of courtesy after signing contracts as before signing contracts. We did have a couple of concerns of a minor nature along the way and these were immediately resolved. John Smith I would describe as fussy and to me this is what you want from your builder. If things aren't right he won't compromise. Whilst Rose Smith has an eye for detail and presentation and we thank her for the look we have achieved.1 comment
