Phenomenal company with exceptional customer service
From the initial phone call right through to handover, our experience with G.J. Gardner Springfield/Ripley was outstanding and we would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to build their dream home. Top quality service throughout made the process easy and stress free. Nothing was ever a problem and they were always willing to go that extra mile.
I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank the entire team that assisted us with our project.

egotiations was incredible. We had a budget and he respected that from the get go, never trying to push for more than we could afford. Day and night he was there answering any questions we had, always putting our minds at ease, double checking information and reassuring us that everything will go to plan. Daniel Carroll (Construction Supervisor) - Dan was amazing throughout the entire build. As we live interstate, he would always send us progress shots of the house to keep us in the loop. Dan is an incredible construction Supervisor with the finest eye for detail. Iain Harris (Director) - We never personally spoke to Iain, however he was extremely considerate of our needs and expectations from a dollar value perspective and would like to sincerely thank him for that. During negotiations he was always easy to deal with and he does really care about giving his clients the best outcome for the best value.1 comment

Best Service and Finished Product in Three Builds
From our first meeting with the sales consultant to the hand-over everything went very smoothly. We have built previously; however, this was by far the most professional and least stressful. The house was finished over 2 weeks ahead of schedule, and to the agreed price. We are very satisfied with the quality of the workmanship. The few, minor issues that arose were dealt with immediately by the building supervisor. We have been in the house for over 2 months and only one or two minor issues have arisen and they were dealt with quickly by the builder. We highly recommend GJ Garner Noosaville to anyone thinking of building in northern Sunshine Coast area.

Solid company, good experience.
First time home owners, which was a nice experience. Initial planning was clear (with assistance), and each staff member we encountered was receptive. Photos were regularly uploaded after the site manager was changed, which greatly helped us see the 'live' progress of the build. The quality of the build is great, our inspection officer even complimented the work he noticed. One issue we have noticed after building is the lack of the retaining wall. We were initially told that this would not be required due to the slope of the property. However,...Read more
after heavy rain, we noticed that over time, this could definitely become an issue if it wasn't addressed. This was not accounted for in the budgeting, so additional landscaping money has to be spent. The cost of the build itself was what we expected, even with modifications, we were easily in our budget range.1 comment

First home and WOW! Just WOW!
As soon as I walked into their Cairns display home in Smithfield I knew I was with the right team. I worked with Erin and John on the specifics of my build and my ideas, their team were nothing but helpful with everything!
Due to my work I was in and out of the Cairns area alot but they took that in their stride and helped me the whole way, being my first home everything was new to me but that were amazingly helpful with explaining everything and even help with all the paperwork.
With the end product I am even more impressed as they had gone above and beyond with the minor details which really makes a house a home, could not recommend them enough and I am so happy with my new home so thank you so much!

Thankyou GJ gardener
From beginning to end our experience building our first home with GJ gardener was fantastic.
We first met Andy at the display home after we purchased our block and he helped us create a home perfect for us and managed to keep within our budget.
Probably the most stressful part of our build was the colour selections, being the procrastinator I am and my husband and I liking different things. But we managed to get there in the end.... just.
One thing I think could have been more clear during the selection process was what was classed as "upgra...Read more

Lovely experience with the GJ Springfield/Ripley team
Our build was pretty quick and easy - once we got all our finance sorted (which took a few months but not the fault of the builder of course!), the slab went down asap, and from there, the house just kept going up. We were delighted to have had a 14 week build, with excellent quality finished product. Whilst there were a few minor defects and teething problems, the site manager, Daniel, bent over backwards to sort them out. We are now settled in our new home and loving it. Price was reasonable for the quality of fixtures we have - whilst we don...Read more
't have anything outlandishly fancy, we have a few nice upgrades like caeserstone, air con and specific tile lays, and the pricing wasnt over the top for these extras. There weren't any hidden extras (a couple of upgrades for internet, but we made the decision to have a hub and extra data points installed) - Adam (sales) quoted us accurately and didn't put any hard sell on us to upgrade unnecessarily. He made useful suggestions given the climate of the area (eg, insulation on certain walls based on direction), but didn't push us into decisions we didn't want. A few fixtures were unavailable, and we ended up with better products at no extra cost. All up, very pleased with the ethics and quality of this company. Thanks for making our first home build such a great experience!1 comment

Absolutely awesome!
G.J. Gardner Homes Jimboomba were wonderful. Our sales associate Andy Randhawa, building consultant Zoe Fullerton and build supervisor Nathan Stewart were knowledgeable, understanding, approachable and genuine. They were more than happy to answer any questions my partner and I had.
We decided to build the Fernbank 216 with an Urban Facade which is beautiful, we are so happy with it. Any issues we had along the way were handles proactively and professionally. They really worked with us as their customers to make sure that we were moving into a beautiful first home.
Since being under new management G.J. Gardner Jimboomba have lifted their game, we love our new home and would be more than happy to build with them in the future!

Absolutely Perfect from Start to Finish !!
Right from the start meeting Phil (our consultant) we felt totally at ease that we where building with a seriously professional company. Our project manager (also Phil) was amazing, so approachable and no request was too much trouble. Color selection & internal fittings with Natasha at the main office was made so easy for us, as was our tiles and carpet selection. Everyone at GJ.Gardener was caring & involved in every way. Workmanship was excellent & I was updated with weekly pics. No issues with the build, only a couple of small items that...Read more
where rectified immediately & the cost was spot on, even after some adjustments by us. This is our 4th home build & by far the best.

Extremely happy with the end result. The finished product was amazing. As first home buyer, we need to choose a builder that we can trust. It's very grateful that we have chosen GJ. Gardner Homes Springfield. There were no surprises to the costs, what was initially quoted is what we paid. I would like to thank everyone at GJ. Gardner Homes Springfield. Special thanks to our New Home Consultant, Jon Farrell. He's very helpful, always a pleasure to talk to. And also big thanks to our Site Manager, Daniel Carroll.

Great build, great experience
GJ Gardner lived up to its review rating. From the initial planning, by Anthony, to the final inspection and follow up after the build, the people at GJ Gardner fulfilled their promise to support us every step of the way. Including the follow-up after the completion of the build.
Our supervisors always made time when we needed to speak to them or required information about the progress of the build. The tradesman employed by GJ Gardner, who attended our build, were equally great in their approach and their willingness to fulfill our requests...Read more
. We would especially like to mention Kitchen Crew who installed our cabinetry. Their follow up to make sure everything was 100% was excellent. We would also like to mention our administrator, Amy. We could not have wished for a better support than Amy in what can be a stressful experience. She always came up with solutions to our problems, no matter how small, offered us great advice and was unerringly prompt in answering our correspondence. She made our build a very enjoyable experience. We would also like to thank Keith at head office who was incredibly helpful and prompt in helping us with some of the onsite matters. The construction cost matched the estimated cost, which was the cherry on the cake. Were we to build again we would definitely choose GJ Gardner.2 comments

The nicest house on the street!
G.J.Gardner have just been a fantastic company to deal with throughout our entire building process. We had a rough start with a previous builder, and G.J. Gardner went out of their way to help us create our dream home within our budget, and make it a reality. From beginning to end they were great to deal with, both the office staff and the builders themselves. The quality of our house structure, design and finish is such a high standard, it really stands out in our street. A big thank you to Kathryn and Kevin from G.J. Brisbane Northside & Bayside. We love our new home!

Great experience building first home
I chose GJ Gardner Springfield/Ripley to build my first home, and could not be happier with the end result. The building experience overall was relatively worry free and required minimal input once construction had started.The quality of the build was of a high standard, and construction was completed in a timely manner. The staff at GJ Gardner Springfield/Ripley were professional and very helpful in responding to any questions or concerns. In particular, our builder Carl was always friendly and easy to approach, and constantly kept us updated on the progress of the build. I would definitely recommended GJ Gardner Springfield/Ripley to anyone building a new home.

We took our time but it was worth the wait
We had looked at 30+ display homes over a 6 month period and while we both liked certain aspects of each of them we couldn't find one we both liked. That changed when we visited the display home in Bellbird Park. It is where we were introduced to Jon Farrell who is one of the "New Home Consultants" there. Jon was relatively new but I immediately felt comfortable with him and that never changed through the entire process. Jon was never pushy always returned calls or emails and genuinely cared that we happy. Now I'm not saying that we didn't have...Read more
a few ups and downs but nothing in life ever goes completely to plan and I base my opinions on how G.J's responded to the bumps and to that end I have no complaints. Through the process I had occasion to meet several G.J staff and each and everyone of them was friendly, helpful and professional. When you invest so much money the natural inclination is to sweat every detail and for 6 months we did just that, the emails and phone calls back and forth the home shows and visits to retail outlets second guessing ourselves and all the while being conscious of budgets was quite stressful. During this period Jon and another one of the home consultants Adam were very helpful in allaying our concerns, answering our questions and steering us in the right directions. This can be quite difficult when you answer to two masters being the Customer and the Company but at no stage did we feel we weren't the priority. Once we had decided the floor plan we wanted was the same as the display home we went about ensuring it conformed to our vision. My first piece of advice is don't expect the display to be exactly what your going to get and meticulously ask questions so you know exactly what you are signing up for. For example ceiling heights or the façade can be different because each builder makes the display more attractive to entice buyers. I had to pay extra for a number of things to make it personal to us but that is an individual decision. Throughout the process such as colour selection, tiles, roofing G.J's were very helpful and eventually we were ready to sign contracts which was a big relief. At this point we were introduced to our Project Manager, Carl who was a really nice young man and like Jon always returned calls, texts and emails promptly, some builders don't allow customers on-site during the build unless by pre-arranged appointments but that wasn't the case with Carl which was good because we were able to head off a few potential problems. Which leads me to my second piece of advice which is' don't assume that the picture in your head of what you want is the same picture in someone else's head. There were several instances where I came on-site and said "that's not what I envisaged" and on each occasion it was fixed without fuss. At this point I would like to mention the Electrical Contractor 'Brett' from Enlightened Electrical, I had a number of additional electrical requirements during the build and they were all done professionally and without complaint. Everything came in on budget which was something I was told by other people rarely happens, we had hand over about two months ago and I have been contacted several times by Jon to check if we have any issues and this morning Carl visited to check on some maintenance issues with the house settling but nothing major. I would have no hesitation in recommending the G.J Gardner team to any prospective buyers.1 comment

Great quality home delivered on time
I was after a reputable builder who could build a custom design on a lot with a 3m cross-fall. Many builders weren't really interested but GJ were extremely helpful right from the start. I was very impressed with their Gold Coast North Sales Consultant (MJ). He was always friendly, even after several design revisions. His estimate was competitive and aligned with the final cost. There were a few issues along the way with Supervisors being rotated through but their General Manager (SC) was extremely proactive in solving problems. No construction...Read more

Jess was our main contact working through our design changes & helping with our upgrades always with a smile & making us feel very welcome over may visits. We are both perfectionists & were most impressed with the quality of the tradespeople & their workmanship with a friendly attitude when we spoke to them. Damien our site boss kept in touch with us & was most helpful throughout the construction. The office staff were always willing to give us answers to any of our questions. Post construction we had only two very minor problems that were fixed to our satisfaction.
Final cost was around $50,000 extra due to our upgrades in the house. Overall a great friendly company to build our house. Bob & Sue

We are looking at building in Maroochydore or Yandina and choosing a builder at the moment. Does anyone have up to date reviews of GJ Gardner Sunshine Coast North for Yandina or South for Maroochydore. How do they compare with Coral or Plantation homes?

Hi Charlie,
I won't speak on behalf of the clients but each office has a page on here dedicated to reviews for their area, perhaps ask one of them? Sunshine Coast South has had two reviews as recently as a few weeks ago so I'm confident they would respond to you if you asked them anything you needed to :)
Thanks, best of luck in your building journey.
