I've been patting myself on the back
For 4 years I’ve been patting myself on the back… for ordering a GJ Gardner Home from Gold Coast Sales office, Les Johnson. Les was very patient, as we made many changes to our original custom build design.
Les was also very helpful with ideas and honest about products and finishes.
GJ Gardner – Dave Cummins – Cummins Constructions – Gold Coast, employs highly qualified subbies who obviously get paid on time and by doing a good job they know they have more work waiting for them. They were always very obliging, prompt and happy, people. I tel...Read more
l everyone who knocked me, how fortunate I’ve been. I had a friend build a home much more expensive and only got half the home I got and he can’t get his subbies to come back for repairs. Thank You GJ Gardner Homes for building us a good solid home, good value with back up service. Thank You very much, Les and Dave. Don’t hesitate to contact us - Barry & Deb Lovelock

Perfect quality build!
We are extremely satisfied with the quality of work by GJ Gardner Springfield. Our build supervisor, Carl was very helpful as well - he made the whole process very easy. We are very excited to be living in our new home. There was also no issues at all throughout the entire process. Ultimately, we are very happy and we will definitely use GJ Gardner again if we wish to build another home. Highly recommend!

House of our dreams!
Starting from the beginning with GJ Finance with Rachel was an absolute pleasure. As first home buyers the whole process becomes very daunting and looking to spend soo much money Rachel made us feel comfortable from the get go. Once all that was done we found ourselves sitting with Kayla. What else can we say about Kayla other than absolutely amazing service and always had our best interests and made the whole process a breeze. Kayla went above and beyond to help us redesign the rosewood 225 into our dream home. from moving the laundry from one...Read more
end to another to adding our own flair. Once the building started we again felt instantly comfortable with Carl our SS. Carl understood where we were at and finding out your going to have a baby the same time the house starts puts a lot of stress on everyone. Carl always kept up us to date and was always honest. Can't thank the GJ team from Springfield/Ripley enough for making our first home a dream come true!!1 comment

I am very please to say that I had an ideal building experience with G. J. Gardner homes North and Bayside. From the sales person, Tony Lockland at North Lakes display village, to Amy Hage, the administration guru, Zac our payment and other contact person in the office, to Kevin Burrows the site supervisor, they all treated a single female building for the first time, with respect and made my experience a very personable one. Never did I ever feel that I wasn't their number one priority. They listened to my requests for some changes in the b...Read more
uild, discussed options for these changes and carried out the work with perfection and courtesy. Kevin was amazing as the Site Supervisor and always made himself available should I need clarification or a walk through during the build. I believe with all businesses, whether they are building houses, cars, computers etc it comes down to the people within the business, and from my experience I can honestly say that the team I worked with at G. J. Gardner Homes Northside have delivered as promised. I would highly recommend anybody considering building a new home to contact Tony Lockland.1 comment

Excellent Experience
As a single female, the thought of building a new home on my own was a daunting thought.
I initially engaged a different medium sized building company, but due to inconsistent contact with them over countless weeks, ended my experience.
A good friend of mine recommended that I call G J Gardner Homes North and Redlands as they had previously had a great experience building with them. I spoke to the Sales Manager Martin Donovan who put me in touch with Tony Lockland, a new Home Sales Consultant at their Northlakes display home. Tony spent a n...Read more

Fantastic Build
What a fantastic builder. Faultless with high quality workmanship and professional courtesy. From the design stage all the way to finish was a seamless transition. Congratulations to Simon, Mitch and their team. Even now, they have attended to some petty Body Corp stuff, without so much of a fuss. My wife was so happy with them, as nothing was too hard for them, and that in a nutshell,...is the most important thing.

We are absolutely in love with our brand new home and couldn't be more grateful to the GJ Gardner Springfield/Ripley team!!
Kayla has been an amazing support to us through the whole process. She was so helpful at the beginning of the process in providing us with key information to help us choose the right piece of land. She is very friendly and made us feel at ease when we had our very first appointment with her.

he perfect combination of land and house plan that was within our budget and got us through to get approved by the bank. Daniel Carroll, our Site Supervisor - although he wasn't our supervisor to begin with... he really did an outstanding job taking over from our previous Site Supervisor. He kept us up to date with the progress of our house and kept everything running on time. He went above and beyond to make sure our house was absolutely perfect. All of the finishes are amazing... we are so happy with everything. Our build was finished weeks ahead of the estimated build time. Rachel Farrell, our Lending Manager was also very helpful. She helped us through every stage of the building process... from buying our land through to the very last progress payment and ensuring the bank paid the last payment so that we could do handover as scheduled.

Compliments to the 285 Stillwater Estate
Compliments to the Springfield Ripley Team, they have been fantastic support during the building process. Anything that has been required has not been an issue for anyone. If we had a question it was answered competently and quickly. As any house build we had some hiccups along the way. Our supervisor Dan worked very quickly and well with us to support any change or corrections that were required. Dan was extremely helpful through the whole process and went up and beyond the point of call. Overall we are exceptionally happy with the house...Read more

Beautiful home
We absolutely love our new home. The build time was quite fast and the quality of the work is of a high standard, giving us a beautiful first home. Our project manager Carl was excellent, he was great and all over everything. We did have a couple of things to be rectified (as we had quite a few variations) but he was able to rectify the small details in a timely manner. We are very happy as our hand over happened earlier than expected, and we are extremely happy with the quality of our new home.

Build is below building standards
We built our second house with GJ Gardner North Brisbane. The build quality did not meet basic building standards and we almost ended up in a legal dispute.
Poor works included large gaps in external fixings, non fixed gutters, loose brickwork, and half siliconed expansion joints. They issued variations without approval and invoices for incomplete works. They finished all internal works (plaster/paint/cabinetry/etc) without starting brickwork and reaching lock-up. The build process fell just short of the penalty rates and they attempted to ...Read more
make us accept handover with incomplete and below building standard work outstanding. We are now in defect liability period and they are refusing to repair the issues. The site manager was disorganised, rude, careless and often was away on holidays. The office people constantly left items out or made errors in the contracts that we had to correct and return several times until they got it right, which delayed the build. Do not build with GJ Gardner without doing your research on the franchise/office you will be dealing with. After these issues started, we found that the North Brisbane Office has a 1 star rating for similar reasons.2 comments

Terrible Experience
Our experience with GJ Gardner Brisbane North has been anything but smooth. We’re not normally ones to complain, but we feel that it’s important to share our experience with other potential clients so that they know what they’re in for if they choose to build with GJ Gardner North Brisbane. We commenced our build process in late 2015 and have only just had everything finalised now (Nov 2017) after our 1 year check took place in May 2017.

My journey started with buying a beautiful lot in Newport QLD. A Stockland development and months after my purchase it is turning out to be everything they promised.
The next step was to choose a builder that l can work with to create my vision for a new home. I looked closely at Metricon Homes, Plantation Homes & G J Gardner Homes all of them had their strengths and over a few weeks l put them through there paces.

With absolutely no hesitation l would highly recommend to anyone seriously wanting to build their dream home to contact Tony.

Happy home owners!
We had a close call with the GJ Gardner Logan franchise. We had reached contract stage when I looked into their QBCC history and discovered an unusually low number of builds in the last financial year and some compliance issues. Based on this information, I did not have confidence in the franchise’s financial stability etc so we pulled the plug. A fortnight later, the franchise went into administration. It really does pay to check your builder’s history on the QBCC website!
Anyhow, we then met sales consultant Bob Kim at the GJ Brisbane Cent...Read more
ral franchise. He provided fast, efficient yet very thorough service and was able to get us a quote for the same house we had originally wanted with a higher level of base fixtures and was able to help us make up for lost time. We can’t thank Bob enough for his professionalism, knowledge and patience. Builder/franchise owner Niel and Sue and their whole team at GJ Gardner Brisbane Central delivered to us a beautiful family home and we could not be happier. GJ Gardner built my parents’ first home in Toowoomba in the early 80s and their second on the Sunshine Coast in the 90s. I’m really happy that the next generation in my family was also able to use GJ Gardner! Thank you again!1 comment

100% Happy
Being a retired couple in our late 70s, the desire for a comfortable, easy to manage home was a priority. The wonderful customer service, advice and support from day 1 and throughout the build from all staff at the Cairns office made the building experience a pleasure and hassle free. The quality of workmanship, materials and fittings supplied are excellent and building progress was managed satisfactorily and professionally with delays kept to a minimum. We are now living in a home that will take us happily and safely into our old age. Thanks G. J. Gardner.

New Home builders - with every dark cloud there is a silver lining
Our house building journey has been turbulent to say the least as we had a previous builder who went bankrupt on us and then we had to go through the QBCC insurance route. Throughout many of those moments we began to lose hope of ever completing the project in a desirable time frame. On reflection it worked out for the best as we would never have gotten this far and so close to moving in without the help of Iain, Daniel and the team at GJ Gardner Springfield/Ripley. They rescued us! Their level of commitment was evident from our very first meet...Read more
ing and remained steadfast throughout. This in turn helped us to put complete trust in their ability to deliver high quality workmanship and customer satisfaction that was originally promised to us. No question or phone call was left unanswered. On the 22nd May, GJ Gardner Springfield/Ripley commenced with the next stage (FRAME) and we were allocated a site supervisor (Daniel Carroll) which we were already in contact with and met up on the Friday 26th May at our block to discuss the build time frames etc. After meeting Daniel for the first time, I knew he was the right guy for the job. The following week I had my wife meet him so she was also rest assured we would get everything as per the plan and explained his ability to get the job done. Daniel restored our faith with building our first new home as he always kept us well informed, stayed in touch on a weekly basis, and most importantly stayed true and honest to our build. With Daniel and GJ on our side we knew we had something special. Hardly a day went past where there wasn’t anything happening. Every day we would pass the house on the way home, and there was always something else completed or started which was always exciting and nothing was ever stagnant for too long. We moved in on the week of the 7th of August (less than 3 months build time) and what a turnaround!! We were kept up to date with every stage of the process and at no time felt left out of the decision making. We highly recommend GJ Gardner Springfield/Ripley as a choice of trusted builder for anyone looking to design their future home. You will not be disappointed! Thank you and best wishes.1 comment

Questions & Answers
Charlieasked
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?
2 answers
Steph E.G.J. Gardner 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.
