Professional job and well managed by all the team involved.
GJ Gardener Homes Shoalhaven were fantastic with our challenging build . They helped us at every stage, with Council requirements, colour advice, materials and sourced outside professional help when needed. Brett guided us smoothly through the pre-build stage and our site manager Jason did an amazing job and got is in on schedule despite lots of hurdles along the way.
Highly recommended- big thanks to all the team at GJ we are over the moon in our new house and Park office!

Amazing finish and stress free build
Shoalhaven G.J. Gardner Homes constructed all 7 houses for our development. They did an amazing job managing the project and all went according to the schedule with no delays. We spent the morning picking the different colour schemes and G.J Gardner handled everything else making the build process stress free for us.
The houses were finished to a very high standard. G.J. Gardner was wonderful in that they had regular site visits booked in. They had great processes pre and post construction in fixing any issues. They were always very helpful throughout the process. The only variation to our contract price was for extra piering and it was minor about 3% of the contract price.
I would recommend G.J Gardner to anyone requiring a new home.

Hassles free
Our experience with GJ Gardner was hassle free and nothing was too much trouble.
From picking our design to matching the design to our block, we were treated with respect and felt comfortable at all times.
Our site manager was very obliging and walked us through the whole build.
We received weekly updates and regular inspections.
A very positive experience.

We built our dream home, not kidding we did
The build went very quickly, few wet days but finished in good time.
The build quality was excellent, we only had one issue with the door to the garage having a gap and letting in a draft but this was fixed.
The final cost was dearer than the original quote but we did add a LOT of extras. And we are so glad we did them before the build.

Our First Home - one to remember
Truly Professional in all aspects - our needs were greatly meet and we are so pleased we choose GJ Gardner
The whole Team at GJ Gardner (Nowra) were outstanding, they welcomed us and we felt appreciated.
The Quality is top of the line and the final product was received well by our little family
The Cost was fairly reasonable - with additions to our place we thought we were going to be we over budget but managed to fit our extra request into our financial plans.

Would certainly build again through GJ Gardner Shoalhaven!
From the first part of contact to hand over of the property we were thrilled with GJ Gardner Homes Shoalhaven. The whole process was made easy and enjoyable and we certainly felt in safe hands.
The weekly communication, advice of what to expect at each level, advice of what would happen next, the quality of the workmanship, the time line, the estimated cost being a true value and the professionalism of the whole team; let alone the personal care each member of the team from administration to directors of the business expressed to us was far beyond our expectations. Thank you GJ Gardner Homes Shoalhaven, we would certainly build through you again!

Building our Retirement House was a Breeze
We chose GJGardners at Nowra based on previous reviews. The Team at Nowra fulfilled all our expectations. Being a retired Architect and Project Manager, my husband and I were looking for a company that had excellent communication skills and top class finish. Two vital components for a hassle free build. We are thrilled with the outcome of our Custom designed home.

Our Beautiful home.
This was our second home that we have built and from our initial contact with the office to our first conversation with Mischa we were made feel comfortable, the quality of the build is excellent, Ryan the foreman was outstanding nothing was to much trouble for him.
We changed the layout from the original plan considerably and nothing was to much trouble to GJ Gardner.

s was lovely, we must say that the accounting system regarding extras and billing is quite difficult to understand. The only reason we have given a good and not an excellent is because the clean up after the build it could have been a lot better, we have removed quite a lot of rubbish/broken bricks etc that was left buy the clean up team, a lot of it was buried when the bobcat came in to do the clean up, we were left with a very large pile of concrete that was from the Concrete mixer and their was a mix up with my Ceaserstone, which we managed to sort out. The quality of the build is great, the quality of the home they have delivered for us it just beautiful, we are very happy all GJ staff very professional, friendly and helpful, we have recommend they to many of our friends. Well done to all the GJ Team.1 comment

Our dream home.
Our dream family home!!!
We have built a few times before, but this time was different as we wanted it to be the one to raise our babies and grow old in. We looked around a bit and found the beautiful Burrill Lake display home (Lake View), and we knew we wanted to build a GJ from then.
From our very first contact with the sales staff we were overwhelmed with how knowledgeable, helpful and honest the whole team were and they helped us realise our vision on to paper. We used the Lake View design as a base plan but we were able to change it...Read more
to better suit our needs and fit our block. It was exciting to visit the site and see the progress and get our weekly updates from the office. We had positive interaction with all staff from sales, admin, colour consultants, management and site supervisor, nothing was too much trouble and all parties were extremely accommodating and understanding. The process was extremely personal and we really felt that the staff felt that way too, they genuinely cared about our house and went out of their way to build the house we dreamed about. As this was not our first build our expectations were high and we expressed this from the start. The staff assured us that the delivery would be on par with the beautiful show home that we had fallen in love with, they weren't wrong, the overall finish is exemplary and all our friends and family are blown away with the quality that GJ delivered, we really couldn't be happier with the finished product. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend GJ Gardner to anyone.1 comment

Very happy with the build, quality, helpful staff and great result.
This was the second new home that we have had built, the first experience was a nightmare, and we were reticent about taking on another episode, however how different this experience with GJ Gardner's was compared to the previous build experience.

multiple overall suggestions that resulted in a house in which we are extremely happy to live. Our site supervisor, Ryan Boyle was ever helpful and displayed an understanding of the build process that resulted in many useful suggestions to improve the overall quality and utility of the house during the build time. We couldn't be more pleased with the overall result and would heartily recommend Gardner's to anybody contemplating setting out on a new house build, either a 'start from fresh' or a 'knock-down and start again' situation! We had several structures on the land we purchased that had to be demolished and Garner's guided us through that process as well - a truly helpful and professional Company from start to finish! To say we were "just happy" with our build with Gardner's is somewhat of an understatement! Well done GJ Gardner of the Shoalhaven - and all the staff!1 comment

Love my new GJ Gardner Home! GJ Gardner Homes Shoalhaven.. Exceptional!!
Right from when we walked into the GJ Gardner Homes Shoalhaven display homes in Nowra NSW we were greeted by the friendliest people who made us feel welcome. This was the first company we got to where we didn't feel like they were trying to force their product onto us. Right from the start Meischa sat us down and spoke about what we wanted to get out of our build and in our home and what budget we wanted to stick too. I felt like we were listened too and no question was silly.
We were building under unique circumstances as my husband was ...Read more
about to deploy for 9 months! Every staff member we spoke with or had any sort of interaction with was extremely helpful and went out of their way to help us. In a short time frame we had agreed on plans and we came to our colour selection appointment. For me i thought the day would be extremely stressful as my husband was at sea at this stage so i was doing it on my own. Our colours consultant was amazing and made the day so much fun and made me excited for the build. Not once did i feel pressured to buy products we didn't need or stressed making any decisions. Apart from handover this was my favourite part of the build! In a very short time and before we knew it contracts were signed, colours and fixtures had been picked and the build was starting. The team at GJ Gardner Shoalhaven managed to get the slab poured in time for my husband to see before he deployed. Our Site Supervisor Aaron was exceptional! He came out and met my husband and I before he left and made him feel just as included in the build even though he was about to leave. I felt like Aaron really looked after me throughout the build and any questions i had he answered honestly and quickly and kept me up to date every step of the way. Not once did i feel like i was being taken advantage of, which was one of my biggest fears going into this as you hear so many horror stories! Aaron made sure we had plenty of site visits so i could take photos to Email my husband to keep him up to date with the progress of the build. The Site Supervisor really does make the build and i couldn't of done it without Aaron. My husband was coming home for a short break which i advised Aaron about, in which he had made sure we would have Handover during this time! Not only did he deliver but we got our house about three weeks ahead of schedule. To say my husband was in shock and over the moon about the house is an understatement! He was so happy to see how everything came together. Handover was a very exciting day and i felt as thought the team at GJ Gardner Homes Shoalhaven made it a big deal for us both and shared our excitement. I feel like GJ Gardner Homes Shoalhaven take pride in their work in all aspects. At every stage i feel like their workmanship was next to none, they had pride in the finishes and everything was finished to an exceptional standard. Now having lived in our home for two months i have a small maintenance list with minor things to fix and i know that these will get seen to in a timely manner. I am over the moon with the final product we've received!! GJ Gardner Homes Shoalhaven made us feel like apart of the family and i cannot highly recommend them enough to anyone considering a build with the Shoalhaven.1 comment

For Pam W - As a pensioner building my forever home, GJ Gardner Shoalhaven did not disappoint. The team were fantastic to deal with from concept to completion and were very helpful in discussing issues as they arose, particularly as I didn't have much experience with the building process. My on site supervisor Ryan, was patient and understanding and I can highly recommend the team at GJ's Shoalhaven.

We got our dream home built by GJ Gardner Shoalhaven.

Staff at GJ Gardner were wonderful in helping us with the custom design and always greeted us with a smile for the numerous meetings we have had.

ned. Being first time builders, it was very helpful to pick the brains of experienced staff and we knew the advice we were getting was trustworthy. All the contractors employed by GJ Gardner were approachable and did an exceptional job. As expected in any new house, there were minor issues when we moved in; and GJ Gardner was quick to send in the tradesmen to fix the problem. All in all, very happy with our decision to choose GJ Gardner for building our dream home.1 comment

I love the house that GJ built for me. They were supportive of changing around the design for me because I wasn't a huge fan of the base model. There are some small issues with the finish that I have noticed now that I have lived in it for some time but none of it is significant and most of my friends who have built with other companies have the same issues.

Home Sweet Home
We are thrilled with our new GJ Gardner home. So much better than the floor plans! Which were created with much blood, sweat and no tears by the team assisting us in the design phase. Such patience. We have, in the end, found a few details we'd change -- our first build and we just didn't know all the questions to ask -- but only fussy things (yes, GJ team, I'm still being fussy!). The builders were amazing, Ryan on top of everything and always happy to talk us through each step. I felt the painters got a bit slap-happy at the end, but I know they were doing an awful lot in a short time. Well done, GJ and if I should ever build again, could only turn to you.

Undoubtedly the best in builders around.
Okay, lets begin, this'll be pretty long. We started our building process with Meischa at the South Nowra display home centre. The display homes looked excellent and we were impressed from the start with the absolute quality finishes in those displays. After a couple of visits with Meisha looking at our site we chose the best plan. The consulting process was the most professional and efficient of all of the builders we saw. GJ Gardner clearly have the best quality houses available.
A point on that. GJ did seem more expensive upfront bu...Read more
t when we looked at small things like what the shelves inside the cupboards were made of (one builder had weird wire mesh things), the joining and the flooring types the choice was actually pretty obvious. Another thing, Meischa was brilliant as a consultant. She recommended a bunch of small things that we wouldn't have thought of. Small things like a couple of extra power points here and there, light switches at both ends of a hallway, mirror heights that suited kids and adults a little better than in the general plan. It's the small touches that can make a big difference and they were all covered by Meischa. The colour consultations were good and pretty easy. We didn't have much of an idea of what we wanted but were correctly advised of our colour choices as they applied to the covenants of our estate. In the end the choices were done smoothly and GJ even went in to bat for us when the land developer rejected our original colours. They fought and won against them and we got what we wanted. After waiting ages for the land to be ready GJ Gardner were the first builders on site. Not just with my home but everywhere here. They had four houses up before the next builder had even fenced off a construction site (Hotondo were next). My house was in the second group of houses to be built by the GJ and was started around the same time as Hotondo put their first ones in. Our place was done before Hotondo had finished the framework on their site. I am aware that speed sometimes means they're cutting corners, GJ haven't. I was invited to be involved in every stage of the construction and saw no corners being cut, nothing being missed and quality building everywhere.1 comment

Shoalhaven GJ Gardner "a must read review from concept to post construction"
We delayed submitting a review intentionally so as to capture the entire process. The experience of building a home doesn't end at the handover. The decision to build can also be stressful but this was not the case for us thanks to the efforts of the team at GJ Shoalhaven. From the outset they were professional, efficient and insightful with their design ideas, feedback and suggestions. Staff were patient and not afraid to point out alternative options, potential problems and relate past experiences. The construction and feedback during that...Read more
stage of the build was greatly appreciated, timely and accurate. Trades selection was clearly a priority for the company as we are entirely happy with the workmanship of the end product. Post construction issues were minor and quickly attended. We have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending this local company. The marketing of their product is 100% accurate; locals who care. The build co-incided with end of year and significant weather events. Regardless the company were able to meet the original estimated timeframe for construction completion, without shortcuts and more importantly within budget. This award winning company are clearly committed to their business ethics and clients. There is obvious and genuine enjoyment in what they do as a team and this is reflective of the number of people that build in this area with GJ. At the risk of upsetting anyone, a big thank you to Nathan, Sean, Jason, Mel and Evan. Your professionalism, communication and understanding of our needs was greatly appreciated. We are now the proud owners of our "show stopping" quality GJ home.1 comment
