So happy!
From day one cant really fault our experience, we dealt with Tracey pre construction and Hamish during construction and they both made building our first home so easy! Hamish was on top of any issues during the build making it super smooth towards the end. We are over the moon with the finishes and quality of the build, and how well kept and clean it was the whole way through. Can’t thank SJD enough!

Overall happy with the builder, Painting could have done better.
Professional staff, lovely working with SJD, Colour selection staff was also very patient. Building is of good quality but still like any house you need to supervise them.
I’m giving 5 star to Design & Sales team, Site supervisor and Tiler, 3 star to Bricking, Painting and Insulation(rating Just for wrap, I still haven’t checked the roof cavity), 4 star to Cabinetmaker, Electrician ( could have installed better LED globes, it’s useless) Plumber and all other trades.
Just finished final inspection so can’t really comment about handover and after care, however SS promised all the issues will be fixed before handover. So far satisfied with the house.

We loved our beautiful house.
The experience that I had with SJD homes was fantastic, from initial discussions with Nathan through to final build with Hamish.SJD Homes were so helpful in allowing us to modify one of their standard designs to create something very special for us.As someone who works in the construction industry, I understand the importance of a good supervisor and Hamish was fantastic person to have him as a supervisor. He always kept us informed, is meticulous with his trades and we couldn't be more pleased. Thank you Mr. Hamish for everything that u did well for our house and you are absolutely the best supervisor that I ever seen. Many thanks to rest of the SJD team as well, We will enjoy what you have created for us for many years to come.

Brad was the best helping build our dream home
SJD were fantastic throughout the build and Brad our supervisor was always there for any problems we had. Constant care was given to us even when vandals damaged the property. Could not fault this company what so ever. Everything was done perfectly. The final cost was very close to the original price

AMAZING BUILDER!! highly recommend!! 10/10
From start to end SJD home have been amazing,
My experience started with me
Going to all the other builders( carlisle, metricon you name it) with the same requirements and being told things where to hard and would cost an excessive amount, all I wanted done is to extend a room space and build an oven wall, when I went into SJD I met Kevin and made the whole process seamless,
Then onto the build, I was well informed step by step when things are happening, I was blessed to have an Awsome site manager in SCOTT C, he always answered my calls and took the time to meet me and explain each stage, also sending me photo updates ..
All in all
SJd, Scott and Kevin and the team did an amazing job ...Read more

Thank you SJD Homes for building our dream home!
It was a great journey building our dream home with SJD SouthEast team!
Our first home was a turnkey home (through another builder) so we were very specific and we pretty much know what we want when we decided to build our dream family home. We looked at a range of display houses at SJD Tulliallan and met our sales consultant, Kevin Pearson. My husband and I were very specific when he asked what we wanted in a nutshell and normally other builders would be like " That would be part of another range", but Kevin on the other hand said, "Great, I ...Read more
have the floor plan that suits your needs - a combination of two display homes". And we knew right there and then, we were going to build with SJD. He had the flexibility of meeting us outside business hours and had gone through the contract thoroughly with us making sure that we understand what we're signing for - we thought that was really professional. Thank you so much, Kevin! Our site supervisor, Wesley Pate, was nothing short of amazing. He was meticulous with his trades and was always one step ahead. There were a few hiccups along the way - something you'd have to expect when you're building but he'd already arranged for a solution and still maintained transparency with us. P.S Thank you, Wes for your patience! A shout out to Leah, for guiding us through our color selection. It was one of the most thrilling part of the build and definitely one of the most nerve-racking ordeal but we came out of it more excited thanks to Leah's professional input. To the staff of SJD Pakenham Office, thank you all for a great customer service may it be during meet ups or just for simple queries over the phone. We are very appreciative of all your efforts. We've been living in our SJD built home for nearly 9 months now and honestly couldn't fault them. We have a spacious, family - friendly home which can accommodate big family gatherings like we always have.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Happy Customers!
From start to finish and beyond we couldn't be happier with SJD!
Our amazing sales consultant we could not fault including finding times outside of business hours that worked for us to meet up and having a baby in the middle of it all as well. Our supervisor who ensured the build went smoothly and was always one step ahead if we had any questions & of course the wonderful office staff who never anything short of a pleasure to deal with!

Excellent builder!
Our build was stress free thanks to our building supervisor Brad. He made the whole process move along so smoothly!
We are so happy with our new home!
The workmanship of the trades has been fantastic for the most part. A few painting defects awaiting repairs as per usual on any newly built home, but everything else has been superb. This is our first home and we are so glad we decided to build with SJD.

Fantastic Experience
From start to finish its been a great process with SJD. Tracy our sales consultant went above and beyond to help us build our dream home. The standard inclusions were fantastic and upgrades at colours day were not too costly. Our construction supervisor Kim delivered us a stunning house, trouble free and quickly. I would reccomend SJD to anyone. Thanks SJD for all your work.

Home sweet home
We have settled into our new house and it already feels like home. Our build with SJD Homes was completed well within the expected time frame and we could not have asked for a better supervisor.
James' attention to detail was second to none and we loved that he was constantly thinking ahead and making suggestions on things we hadn't considered. His communication through-out the build was great and I always knew which trades were coming through each week which definitely made us feel more involved with the process.
We can't thank James enough for his invaluable knowledge and guidance through-out the build!

Excellent journey with SJD for our first home!
We have had a fantastic journey building our first home with SJD. Jean Morrison was our Sales Consultant who we cannot speak highly enough of. She helped us design a custom home while sticking to our budget and made herself available for us whenever we needed her throughout the entire build.
Kim O'Connor was a site supervisor who we also cannot speak highly enough of. He also made himself available anytime we needed to have a chat. He kept in close contact with us, letting us know how things were going every step of the way. Kim was amazing wit...Read more

Thank you very much SJD homes..from Jean, Leah, Lauren and the office ladies, to our wonderful site supervisor, Kim OConnor! We stumbled across this company when looking at display homes and were immediately impressed with the floor plan and the quality of the build! Having never built before, we were hesitant at first as SJD wasnt known to us, but once our decision was made we have not had a moment of regret.

experience and great customer service, his execution was immaculate with exceptional attention to details and building requirements, he walked us through every stage of the building and always communicated with us and attended to our emails straight away, we were so lucky to have James as our site supervisor he was very organized and thorough, our building finished on time to move in before Christmas. We are a very picky couple and he was very patient and flexible with us and we can't thank him enough for his hard work .We have done a 6 month of research before signing with SJD and definently they are very well priced specially after looking at the quality of the finishing and the tradesmen work, we had almost included everything that was in their display homes and it was still cheaper than the standard building with a lot of the other builders, Its definently a company to trust for building your dream home. We have just moved into our new home and already loving it !!! Thanks so much SJD team you have promised and delivered. We definetly going to be a returning customerSimilar opinion?

We have had a great journey with SJD from start to finish! We have been in our new home for 2 weeks now and are very happy! We spent a long time researching builders and found SJD was by far the best when it came to inclusions and transparency. We were lucky enough that any minor issues were picked up early in the build so they didn't cause major ones and our supervisor was great in listening to any concerns we had and easing any worries I had. We have been really happy with the overall finishes in the house and we have paid exactly what was in...Read more

My wife and I looked at a lot of builders when we were looking for our perfect floorplan. That's when we saw a design that we liked the look of in the SJD display homes and the friendly staff assisted us by modifying the plans to suit us perfectly. The team at SJD went above and beyond to make sure that we understood what we should expect and how things were progressing with our new home.

here for us, not to tick a box. We felt comfortable to ask questions, even the stupid ones, and not feel judged. Our build was due for completion around Christmas, but the team at SJD worked with their tradies, admin and with us to ensure that we were able to move in before the Christmas break. You hear horror stories about builds going wrong or poor communication, but my wife and I have had the dream experience with SJD. We are both very grateful for James and all of the hard working members of SJD who have helped us along the way.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

The best of five homes l have built
We have built 5 homes all with different builders. I had issues with each of them with the exception of SJD homes. From the start with the sales person, Kevin Pearson and then the building supervisor, Kim O'Connor who always kept us well informed and ensured that an excellent job was done along with being on time. Very professional promptly answering our enquires, we would highly recommend SJD. Thanks Kevin and Kim

Do SJD do house extension?

I’m not sure, as that wasn’t something we discussed during my build . It’s certainly worth giving them a call and asking them. I’m so happy with my house

Hello and thank you for your enquiry. A typical build time for smaller homes is up to six months however this is variable and dependent on many factors.
Sjd is one of the worst builder in Melbourne, look some where else.
