We built our house in Brighton East with GJ Gardner Melbourne South East, and the whole experience has been fantastic from start to finish. We worked with them to create a custom floor plan by modifying one of their standard designs, and the process was smooth. The team was professional, responsive, and flexible. Communication was clear… Read more

throughout the build, and the quality of workmanship is great. There were a few minor issues and defects, but they are being addressed promptly, and Aaron has been responsive and professional in handling them.

We’re very happy with our new home and would highly recommend building with GJ Gardner Melbourne South East to anyone looking for a reliable builder.

We just want to say a huge thank you to all of you for making our dream home a reality. From the very start in January through to handover (October), you kept everything running smoothly and communicated with us every step of the way, which we really appreciated. Paul, thanks for getting the ball rolling and guiding us through the process. Ross,… Read more ·  1

you were fantastic helping us choose all the finishes and making sure the design felt like us. Fil and Aaron, we really valued how you both kept things on track on site and handled everything so professionally.

We couldn’t be happier with the final result and we’re so excited for all the wonderful memories to come. We would definitely recommend this amazing team to anyone looking to build their dream home! Thanks again for everything! Jess and Rory

We’re building a new dual occupancy with GJ Gardner Homes Melbourne South East and have been thoroughly impressed by the exceptional progress and attention to detail. We started in late January 2025 and are already on track for completion by Christmas. GJ provided clear, upfront pricing with no hidden surprises, maintaining weekly communication… Read more ·  1

throughout the build, and offered the flexibility to make changes along the way. We were blown away by their display home in Highett, and the exact same quality promised has been delivered in our own build. We couldn’t recommend GJ Gardner Melbourne South East more highly.

We built our new home with G.J. Gardner Homes Melbourne South East and couldn’t be happier with the result. From the very beginning, Paul, Fillip and the team were professional, transparent, and a pleasure to work with. We received expert advice right from the start, when other builders we spoke to just seemed to fumble and the quality of the… Read more ·  1

workmanship has exceeded our expectations, which was a high focus area for us. We were so happy with the outcome and the quality of the build that it was entered into a HIA Home Award competition. That recognition alone speaks volumes about the pride and craftsmanship G.J. Gardner put into their builds. If you’re looking for a builder who delivers on their promises, we highly recommend Paul, Fillip and the G.J team!

We have been living in our new Bayside Premier Homes (T/A G J Gardner) for 15 months now and are very happy with it. The home is well built with very few issues and those were promptly fixed. Our build had an extra challenge, in that Bayside was taking over from a failed builder. Some builders would have used that as an excuse for delays, cost… Read more ·  1

increases, etc. However, Bayside’s GM and his team did none of that and were very creative in solving the inevitable problems that arose. Bayside's office staff were very helpful during the contract and variations stage, and included features we had overlooked, e.g. built in laundry baskets, USB charges, extra power points, etc. Our building supervisor was brilliant and has unhesitatingly helped with various follow up issues. Overall we heartily recommend Bayside Premier Homes.

Hamptons-Style Family Retreat with Expansive Living and Entertainment Spaces, Thoughtfully Designed – GJ Gardner Homes built our two-story Hamptons-style dream home, with the Melbourne South East team providing friendly and professional service throughout our knockdown and rebuild. The team’s support and Aaron’s project management expertise ensured exceptional workmanship and attention to detail – delivering high quality finishes, and a stunning… Read more ·  1

end result that exceeded our expectations!

GJ’s flexibility was a game-changer, enabling us to modify one of their original plans and create a custom design that suited our existing block of land. We redesigned the upstairs layout, turning the fifth bedroom into a spacious dressing room for the master ensuite, and adjusted the ground floor to fit a larger double garage.

10/10 service and experience – We started our journey of building our dream home with GJ Gardner homes and at every step of the way they were supportive, helpful and always kept us in the loop. The mixture of our block, dirt and the dream we wanted didn’t make it easy for the team however they treated it like they were building their own home, they were meticulous in planning… Read more ·  1

and execution of all aspects of the home and ensured we were happy through every step. Aaron and Fil looked after us and never made us feel like we were bothering them with questions or concerns, they always kept us up to date with where progress was. The wonderful team in the office helped us work through 2 planning stages and a huge colour consultation and they made it feel like a breeze. We couldn’t be happier with the home that they built for us.

5 Star Quality Amazing Build, Customer Service and a Builder you can TRUST!!! – We were Porter Davis Customers, and were left with a frame, part roof and none of it quality! We spoke to many other builders to take over our build and whilst the cost from other builders were lower, we decided to go with GJ and so happy we did! Context, both wife and I are very hard to please, very detailed and have the highest standards for… Read more ·  1

everything we do, and to this day have not met many people that deliver to our expectations, but GJ Gardner entire team ( Sales, Ops and Onsite team) delivered, and we are SO Impressed!

From the first time we spoke to them, they were honest, clear and everything they promised and said in the beginning is what they delivered in the end. From everything we see, read and hear in the building industry , GJ are a rare bunch of very good people. Customer service and flexibility was amazing. Workmanship was to the highest standard we have ever seen! We had a private inspector do 5 inspections, reports and anything that was found GJ addressed with zero debate! We ended up with almost zero defects :) which is unheard of, I am sure!!

Don't waste your time talking to any other builder, just get GJ in. Wait for them if you have to( we did), as they don't take on too many jobs and pay what they charge, its worth the peace of mind and end product!

Thanks GJ Team, we cant thank you enough!

Quality Partnership ! – Initial consultation and Design stage with Angela was excellent ! She had so many idea's and was really helpful and accomodating. We had to revise my build size and quote 3 times but each step of the way i was advised on pro's and con's of removing or including options. She always answered my calls, called during build stages to check up on… Read more ·  1

things, she really cared about my journey through the process.

Cabinets and wardrobe design with Michelle was seemless, informative and easy ! A pleasure to work with - super friendly, ALWAYS answered my calls.

Colour selections were a really fun process, and Ros has a world of experience with colours, features and designs. Ros also selected my curtains and blinds which i had not seen until installation, and it was FANTASTIC.

Initial works took a little longer to commence, but Fil did his absolute best to get the project off the ground as quick as he could, pending weather at the time. He is direct and tells you the facts as they are, which is what you want in a builder.

After lockup, internals were a smooth experience ! Go Go Go ! Aaron is a GUN ! on the ball, VERY communicative, accomodating, and always answered my calls and messages. We made a few tweaks to the design of the kitchen and he even built me a hidden under-staircase storage with a hidden door during the plaster and paint stage ! hassle free, he just gets on with the job !!

Final inspection came back really positive, roofing, structural, plumbing, caulking and flooring - major ticket items looked really good, compliant ! Aaron finalised the remaining few paint and patch items and within 3 weeks i had my keys ! super fast turn around !

All in all, very happy with the quality of the build ! I would definitely recommend GJ Gardner South East to any person or family looking for a good experience with a custom home builder ! they also build townhouses, side by side and units !

Thank you for building me an awesome home !

Excellent experience – I have just finished building with G.J. Gardner melbourne south east. The process from start to finish has been smooth and collaborative. Like any building project, there have been a couple of curve balls along the way, but they have been handled well and communication has been open and honest. During the design process, they were very open to… Read more ·  1

working with us to incorporate the changes that were important to us, and we never felt rushed or pushed into making snap decisions.

We have ended up with a beautiful, well designed, well-built, high-quality home within a very reasonable timeframe and at a reasonable cost.

I would not hesitate to recommend the G.J. Melbourne south east team.

Thank you Sales & Construction team – The reason I'm giving 5 stars is only because of the sales and construction team. Angela was nothing but amazing from the start to the end. She was always there to help no matter the circumstances and even during the time when my experience was being dampened, she always tried to put me at ease and made herself available when it wasn't even her… Read more ·  1

job. Administration side was beyond disappointing and actually a big joke which made me not ever want to build a house again. Communication just disappeared before Christmas once council plans were approved (since October) and it was me trying to constantly get in touch with the team to find out when construction was commencing. However, once Fil took over construction, everything was quick and professional. Unfortunately, I didn't really have high hopes due to have been waiting for so long but Fil proved me wrong. He always kept me updated every week and no matter his circumstances, always picked up the phone or got back to me with my questions. I cannot thank Fil enough for understanding my circumstances and being quick to act despite all the miscommunication (or non existent communication) from the other area of the company. His site supervisor, Aaron was also an equally exceptional person. Nothing was ever too complicated for him and he was always available for any questions. Angela, Fil & Aaron, I cannot thank you enough for turning my bad experience to an exceptional time. My house looks fantastic and beyond exceeding expectations. I hope in future the administration side of the company brings as much to the table as the others.
