Great sales team, builder supervisor and contractors used
I think we had the best sales person and supervisor in the gj gardner team. Our house came out beautiful. The finish was great with very Little minor paint repair marks and an issue with our driveway, but that were all sorted out when we pointed them out. They took a bit long to build the house but we were happy and it worked for us as our slab got longer curing time and things were not rushed. The contractors they used from the northern side were great and professional.
We were happy with the build. Thanks for our beautiful house GJ Gardner North side team and contra tors.

My Very First Home and Couldnt be Happier
I went through G.J. Gardener Homes to build my first home and I absolutely cant rave about it enough. Everyone that I delt with were amazing, understanding and very helpful. I would like to personally thank Alex Lopez the Building Supervisor for doing such an amazing job. Alex organised all of the trades and made sure the house was being completed in a timely mannor with excellence and it looks amazing and the house was built quit a bit before supposed completion date. I couldn't be happier. I would like to thank all the the trades that worked ...Read more
on my house especially the painter and tiler, it looks fantastic!! I Couldn't recommend them more and if you are building a house and want someone to take care of you as if they were building their own home ask for Alex he has just done such a good job. 5 stars for end result and 5 stars for service1 comment

First home builders - Lesson Learnt
Good - Pre construction was good, sales person was really helpful and knowledgeable.
All our consultations were great especially the tiles and cabinetry, the only thing I could suggest is making sure your staff are well aware of the products being used during construction as we would have used different materials eg skirt boards only being craft wood and looks terrible.
We had a bad start to our construction with no communication regarding us to organize water, remove existing fence. Yes we should of read the "fine print" but as first hom...Read more
e builders your to excited. We had our neighbors water being used during construction which is illegal, because no water was onsite ! We had a few issues regarding items being installed in wrong position or hinged back to front and was only picked because I said something, why is there even site superiors if they can't do there intended job correctly.

Hi Eddie .
Thanks for response.... Read more
I won't be holding my breathe for any resolutions. Since posting our review we have had the skirting boards removed to have our garage floor rectified, sealed and painted Once we removed the skirting board we discovered badly damaged water ingresion & mould. Could you please explain why ?? Our main bathroom vanity tap is leaking water due to being loose and letting water into the cupboard below. Once again I'd gladly invite you to inspect our new house. Cheers .Really annoying having to pay for a new house when you get your house handed over with issues like cracked tiles, plaster patches through out, paint runs in every room, doors won't shut and open prope...

rly and list goes on. When you buy a new car or TV you don't get a half finish product or no care and pride in the workman ship so why should I have to accept a half finished house even though we were " promised " these issues to be rectified ??Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Bad experience
Just finished building with GJGARDNER homes was very excited at first but later bad experience, stressful for the whole family. Met [name removed] the sales consultant from north lakes, not helpful at all, bad customer service, a misleading person, not trustworthy, overall an inconsiderate person. Wrong house all the rooms were too small. Anyway wrong builder, bad experience, not happy never build with GJ again.
[name removed] my builder has been terrific all the way, helpful, considerate, caring, and keeps me up to date on everything. Good job [name removed]...

Quality Delivery
Our experience with G J Gardner Brisbane North was overall positive. One of the reasons we decided on G. J. Gardner Homes was that we felt that we were listened to and given honest information from the beginning. We were especially concerned that we may be confronted with hidden costs and after some research we could see that G. J. Garner Homes was committed to a turn key price with no hidden costs. The only extra costs we did experience were not at the fault of G. J. The sales woman, Katherine was fantastic. She went above and beyond in h...Read more
elping us to nail down the design we were satisfied with. She was exceptionally helpful in ensuring we considered many of the functional aspects. Our project supervisor/foreman Alex was equally as helpful. He was very knowledgeable and also went above an beyond on numerous occasions. We definitely felt confident that he had our best interests at heart. He was honest, friendly and professional. In terms of the actual build, generally, we have been more than happy with the quality. This was our first home and first building experience and we are glad we went with G. J. Gardner Homes. Every build has it's issues and there were some along the way (one of the contractors made a fairly significant oversight which has not been resolved) but overall, we have been very happy.1 comment

Excellent Product. Great Finishes
We built with GJ Gardner homes this year and couldn't be happier with the finished product. If there were any issues throughout the build the staff were very quick to rectify the issue and come up with a solution that would benefit us with the final product. It was easy to get into contact with the staff and they were all to happy to help when we did call. I would like to thank our site supervisor who we could not fault throughout the build as he kept us up the date with everything. Myself and my wife would like to thank Gj Gardner homes Brisbane North and Bayside for the excellent home that they have build for us and our soon to be family.

Brisbane Northside. Awesome customer service.
We are only at the beginning of our journey and were terrified of where to begin. First home, first build. Tony at Brisbane Northside has been amazing, he has given us so much time and worked with our ideas with efficiency and enthusiasm. We are so excited about the potential of getting our dream home, even though we never knew what our dream looked like until Tony walked us thru it! Now to secure the home loan and drive you crazy with my blog!

d fixtures are rubbish and you will not get that beautiful home you see on display unless you spend tens of thousands of dollars extra ( after you've already provided unconditional finance ) . There is a reason they don't show you your standard inclusions until you have signed a contract and provided unconditional approval - because you would run a mile knowing what their standard is ! Feeling very disheartened and let down and thinking we should have gone with a transparent company who lets you visit their colours/ cabinetry/ electrical etc showrooms as many times as you want BEFORE your selectionsmeeting or contract signing. You are spending hundreds of thousands with this company yet are pressured to make all your decisions within two hours for your entire exterior and interior, without knowing prior WHAT choices you have OR what prices the upgrades are . Consequently we are left unsure of so many decisions because our custom was only worth a two hour appt with no previous viewing of product choices before. My enthusiasm has been a rollercoaster since this first review!Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

We build our beautiful home with GJ Gardner and I have to say they did not disappoint! The building material was of high standard! The quality of the workmanship was first class! Keith Emanuel our site supervisor handle the process with dignity and in a very professional manner! Kathryn Salas at the sales office is a great asset with her clientele experience to the GJ Gardner Group, you ask and she got the answer! Sandy and all the people we had dealt with was excellent! We will definitely recommend you guys!

Hassle Free Build
I recently completed a build with GJ Gardner Brisbane North. The process went smoothly and any issues were sorted out by the great team in the office and in the field. Special mention to the Site Supervisor who kept everything moving and always kept me abreast of progress and any issues.
I found that it's really important when building to have realistic expectations of the final result. Look past the displays and ask to see displays that match your inclusions. Always allow a little more for additional in the kitchen and electricals.

Job well done by GJ Gardner Brisbane North
I have just finished the construction in Brisbane North (rental). The process was fairly smooth from sale to the completion. The team that I was working with is highly professional and made me feel like a valued customer. Big thank you to Anthony, Sandy, Alex, Kelly and Tracey for great service and advice. Alex is a fantastic construction supervisor who goes an extra mile to keep the customer happy. His enthusiasm and positive attitude made the whole experience so much better. I am based interstate so having him to oversee the construction gave...Read more
me peace of mind. I originally chose GJ Gardner based on customer reviews on this website. In the beginning I did not know what to expect. GJ Gardner advised that they organise an independent building inspection at the end of each construction. Having heard a lot of horror stories about residential construction, just to be on the safe side I preferred to engage my own building inspector for the practical completion. I was pleased to find out that the issues were minor, and the majority had already been picked up by Alex. On the downside, the construction took longer than was originally quoted, yet within the (fairly stretched) contract terms. The main delay happened during the planning stage despite having very few variations. A couple of small things were missed and had to be completed after the handover which was not a big deal. Perhaps more pressure should be put on the contractors at the company level, to ensure a bit better workmanship (security screens, carpentry, kitchen installation, - the Express finish). Not sure if the current high construction activity in SE Qld is to blame. On the other hand, the electrical contractors were fabulous, i.e. experienced, helpful and easy to deal with. It would be good to be able to see a display home of the chosen size (186 sq m) as the hallway appeared very narrow and the main bathroom sink is quite small. It is hard to pick up such things on printed plans. Initially I was going to give GJ Gardner 4-4.5 stars. Then I got an independent contractor to install a fence. It is unbelievable how many issues I have had with such a simple job, including damage to the neighbour's house (!). That was when I realised how many things could go wrong during housing construction projects, particularly when they are done via ‘remote control’. These guys definitely deserve 5 stars.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Great to finally have our Dream Home!
The Workmanship on this build was great and the team responded to site challenges with a great attitude. GJ North ageed to build on our block, where others put it in the too hard basket, and agreed to build the home I designed. There were some site challenges and it was a custom build, but everyone seemed to enjoy doing something different, and the outcome was worth it.
Like all builds, the project only goes well with the guidance of the project Manager, and ours was on top of the project the whole time, he made the process easy and enjoyable, thanks Dennis, couldn't have done it without you!

Amazing and excellent quality house!
All staff were very helpful and would change things to suit our needs in a house design. The build process was efficient and we always were kept up to date about the progress. All staff were open and honest about any extra costs any of our changes would incur and did not try to "upsell" but rather make sure that we had what we needed and wanted in a house. Our house has been handed over with excellent workmanship and great attention to detail. GJ GardnerNorth Brisbane were an excellent team of people to work with in building our home.

We recently built our first home with GJ's and from the moment we walked in the doors we felt safe, comfortable and knew we were in good hands. Brad came up with the perfect house design for our difficult shaped block of land we had purchased, He's service was fantastic to say the least! Denis was our building supervisor, He was amazing to deal with... the construction ran smoothly and we never had any issues, we were always well informed with the progress and well looked after! It was a wonderful experience to build with GJ Gardner Homes and we would definitely do chose them again in the future and we highly recommend them! We couldn't be happier with our new home.

A fantastic conclusion to our build
We can honestly say we have enjoyed the whole experience of building our new home with GJ Gardner from meeting the first day we looked at homes. We had a lot of hands on and help from the team and support network, the workman have all been of a good quality and have produced a great finish to our home, and have been involved at all stages of the build and had lots of meetings on and off site. We have had support from the team in the office and the site management team at all times and found them to be very professional, we have been able to co...Read more
ntinue to contact the team and go through things even after we have completed the build are always willing to help and nothing is to much of a problem, can safely say we would build with them again and have told many people of the great work they do and all the help support and advice they give and help in making sure we are happy with the build at all stages, we are so glad we went with GJ Gardner as we now have a new group of people we can call friends.1 comment

Retirement Plan
The initial contact with the Sales Consultant was a deciding factor to build with GJ Gardner Homes. He was very helpful and nothing was to much trouble. With the modern trend of building companies using numerous contractors, it is essential to have a switched on supervisor which we were fortunate to have and he proved to be exceptional at his job. We found the overall building experience a reasonably stress free experience.

The level of service and advice we received was professional and informative.

and nothing was too much trouble for him to ensure we were happy with the build! The various trades people who helped us along the way also made our decisions easier and offered their advice. We were most impressed with [name removed] of Format Kitchens and [name removed] of Fusion Electrical who again made creative suggestions to enhance the lighting effects in our home. Our 'build time' was also on schedule with the building starting early May and completion in mid August 2014. Building with GJ Gardner has been a pleasant experience for us and we would readily recommend them to anyone planning to build a home.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!
It was so easy.
Gj Gardner Brisbane North were very helpful right from the initial meeting to home handover. They came up with plan changes to suit the block and still achieve the same floor area for their standard design, and with no added or hidden costs. All construction works were as per the contract and any minor concerns I had were dealt with immediately. Having GJ Gardner build your house is easy and a pleasurable experience. I would recommend them.
