Excellent service matching the quality of build! Definitely Recommend GJ Gardner Hobart!!!
Throughout every stage of the planning right up until the handover of the keys the staff at GJ Gardner in Hobart - West were amazing, the communication and prompt service made building our first home a lot easier than we were initially thinking it would be seeing how others have experienced the process with other companies. Any concerns I had regarding certain issues were addressed immediately and hats off to the office staff of Meg, Lillian, Nathan and Adele for putting up with me for all my requests and relieving my stress! When I first appro...Read more
ached GJ Gardner I met Aaron who managed to take my poor description of what I was trying to achieve and turn it into a house that we are so very happy with. Throughout the process of dealing with the finance side of things I could not recommend GJ any higher as they were very flexible and super quick to get what the bank required even on a Friday afternoon when it seemed the bank had forgotten some form that they had not sent through time and time again. Now to the builders and site foremen of Damien initially and then Charlie, my experience was phenomenal - the personalised service of these two were great, GJ Gardner Hobart truly have an amazing work ethic and values each customer as it is apparent with all their staff. Finally I would like to thank Ludek and Lenka for running such an amazing business with the friendliest and professional staff, you should be very proud of how your business runs and that your staff do an amazing job of promoting your business! - Will use again if I build. 100 % Guaranteed satisfaction if building with these Legends! Thank you again GJ Gardner - Hobart West Tom & Chantel Hawkes Happy Home Owners!

Great build, excellent customer service!
Our first home built with GJ Gardner Hobart was a great experience from the moment we walked in the office. Their friendly, knowledgeable & approachable staff guided us through the journey & process of building our first home. We wouldn't hesitate to have GJ Gardner for our future extension or build and would definitely recommend anyone who wishes to build with them.
Special thanks to Meg, David & Ludeck @ GJ Gardner Hobart.

Love our new home - Thankyou GJ Gardner Hobart
GJ Gardner Hobart – We are very pleased with our new home.
Preparing to move from Queensland to Tasmania we needed to have a top-quality builder we could trust to construct our new home.
We chose GJ Gardner Hobart as our builder and visited their office a number of times. Each visit was simply amazing as we were given the time to make all the arrangements for the design and selection of all colours for our home. Meg, Lilian and staff were always very helpful and supportive at each visit.
On arrival in Tasmania the slab for the house was re...Read more
ady and our workshop shed erected. We met our building supervisor Damian who gave our building dates for progress of construction and finish of our home. The construction and finish of our home was well managed by Damian. He was in control of all aspects of managing the various contractors working on our home to have a trouble free top quality finish. Ludek (Owner) visited a number of times during construction and was always helpful and supportive. GJ Gardner’s attention to detail with Damian as our supervisor was excellent and we are very happy with our new home. Our maintenance period was managed in a professional way with only minor adjustments required as the building settled. We are very happy with our new home and would highly recommend GJ Gardner Hobart to anyone who is looking to build their home.

Going the extra mile
My Wife & I are very pleased with the service and build quality that we have received from the entire GJ Workforce.
Not long after initially signing up to build our family home we mentioned to the team that we are expecting a baby in November (this was in April before we even had council approval) ever since then, the whole team has pushed as hard as they could to get certain things done in a timely matter to ensure we could be in the house with our new born.
I would like to thank Aaron, Meg, Lillian, Ludeke, Lenka, Damian and an even big...Read more

The quality and workmanship was outstanding with a great attention to detail .
Coming from another State it certainly was a big task of not being there for face to face meetings, however Ludek and the whole team were great and it all went smoothly.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Gj Gardner Hobart and look forward to building again with them in the future.

People to trust on building your new home
I never built a house before and i had been living in high rise buildings so building a house was something i had no idea of. I am glad i found GJ, which was actually recommended by my colleague. There were some hiccup due to weather and other unforesseable issues so my house was a tiny bit delayed. But what impressed me the most was the aftersale service. They are very accountable, and rectify problems very quickly if there is any. Director Ludek himself is awesome, he takes care of a lot of things himself, he would come after hours to check o...Read more
n the problems, and he responds quickly to save me from worrying from anything. They do not wash their hands off after they handed me the keys, i feel that they actually care about my house as much as i do. Every staff has been really nice, and has been really looking after me. Its been more than 5 months since i got the keys and i can still always ask them if there is any question or problem and they always help me!1 comment

Worst experience ever
Our experience building with GJ Gardner Homes, Hobart West has been absolutely terrible. Anyone who is considering building with this company should definitely think again.
We were looking to build our first home and after doing some research and meeting with a few companies we eventually signed on with Gj's in late 2016. The initial consultations and selecting a design were fantastic and everything sounded like it was going to be perfect. however, It turned out to be anything but perfect. The entire build, from beginning to end (and beyond)...Read more
has been both frustrating and so badly managed that it is almost amusing. What we have endured throughout this build is totally unacceptable and you should avoid this company if you are ever thinking of building. I will explain our experience with GJ Gardner Hobart West in further detail below for those interested. After our initial consultation with a Gj's sales rep, we signed on to build with them. It all starts to go downhill from here. After going back and forth with architects about our design plan we finally settled and signed off on a plan we were happy with. Not long after this we received a call from the franchise owner saying they would not be able to do a concrete slab like normal but instead would have to do a suspended timber floor. It is important to note that we were building a two story house on a downward sloping block and after a conversation about why we couldn't have concrete we were still a little bit unsure but happy for them to change it to suspended timber in order to not delay anything further. (As a result of this we now have a 1.5m drop from our downstairs sliding door to our backyard which we will now need to build a deck off in order to ever be able to use it). After all this, a few other hiccups, and what seemed like forever, all appropriate paperwork (Plans, Approvals, contracts etc) were finalised and we finally received our conformation of commencement of the build on 1st May, 2017. It is important to note this was a 120 day until house completion contract. We were assigned a Site Supervisor who had just started with the company and from the get go (his fault or not) he was clearly not up to supervising our build. He was unable to answer many questions and when we had any problems he didn't seem to know how to resolve them. After a month or so this supervisor was 'no longer working for GJ' however we were never informed why or even who would be now supervising. (we only ended up finding out he didn't work for them anymore as we rang him for an update on the house and he told us himself he wasn't working for them anymore). We actually ended up having 4 different supervisors throughout the build (yes, 4 supervisors over a 4 month build) and each time we had a new one we seemed to be back at square 1 (three actually quit the company in this time)1 comment
