Granny Flat Leaders

Worst experience – Worst company I’ve ever had to deal with! Once you’ve paid your deposit you’re put to the side. You’re led to believe there are sooooo many designs to chose from but when you go to a “design meeting” someone turns up with a few similar plans printed on paper. Communication within the company is shocking and it is even worse between the company and… Read more

the client. Took almost a year to complete. Quality of build is disgusting. I mean obviously crooked walls, brickwork and tiling. Chips in architraves, walls and paint all throughout. Defects being bought to attention multiple times and were not fixed until months later. Incompetent staff in all areas not including the accountant lady she’s always on time with those invoices for bodgy work. Now 2 years after moving in I’m having issue after issue and although I have warranty how do I chase up? Has anyone taken action with this company?

No Star For Granny Flat Leaders. The owners and project managers already back in business the next day – Anyone interested in joining a call to see how we can fight it together text me on [contact details removed] Peter. Maybe we can chase the directors together for trading whilst insolvent. false and misleading advertising. We can go see the administrators The directors called in Dec stating they wouldn't do any more work until paid. Then Jan 8th… Read more

they went bust. I know at least one project manager [name removed] (one that called me for a 13k payment) is already building granny flats again. The problem we have now is knowing exactly what needs to be done to complete it. Don't do business with anyone that worked at this company.

Horrible non professional company – This company took one year to do minimal work. They now have gone bust and are under administration. Who knows what happens with the clientele base whose work is incomplete and they have also billed and stolen people’s money without finishing the job in hand. Just our bad luck to lock in contract with them 0 stars really Show details

Slowest Company to deal with and do not return phone calls – Started okay with sales people getting you to sign contracts etc However, after construction started, its all downhill from there. [name removed] who is the project manager does not return phone calls/emails. After christmas, tried ringing their company and no one answers. The mobile phone of Project Manager is no longer operational. Not sure… Read more

if they still exist? We have had to set up the gas meter ourselves although this should have been a part of the contract. Their work is not complete and we were not handed paperwork after its been finalised.

Extremely Painful Process – 14 week build took 11 months, finally got occupancy certificate only to find electrical problems and tv aerial problems (paid for in upgrade). Have been pleading with site manager [name removed] for 6months, he keeps promising to send electrician who never turns up. Meanwhile tenant sits in darkness. Fair trading contacted them but had no response… Read more

so they are going to refer it to Building and Construction Service for site inspection, ( they can also look at cracks in concrete).

Disorganised and slow - unsure my job will be completed at all – Im extremely disappointed so far on the service GFL is proving on the construction phase. Im building in Blacktown . It all started well, great customer service from the sales department etc but thats where it stops. Im having similar issues like on these posts. Im not getting answers, they seem very disorganised. I would be told things would be… Read more

done one week or materials delivered but then nothing happens. Im having to constantly chase for answers but no one can provide me with answers. I cant see my job finished at all at this rate.

hopeless job – Since we had a contract and put the deposit in their account, they changed the face, we need call them,push them, their job make me disappointed. when I gave them a call, the reception always said: He(She) has a meeting now, please leave you message, and they never call me back. Don't choose them. Show details

Slowest company ever – It all started with a rush and after I made the construction deposit and then the excavation 30% they disappeared for three months after doing one days work. When they came back the workers worked quickly for one day then the disappear again after I had made another payment. Went on forever. Show details

Big disappointment – Started well but then slowed to almost a stop. Very disorganized. Was told something would be done one week but not done weeks later. Even after completion still had problems Show details

Hopeless people to do business with – Most unprofessional company we have dealt with. Management hopeless, workmanship Ok, phone calls not returned, their mistakes are many, site not secured, 4 months behind schedule with no end in sight. Show details

Thirteen months and still waiting – I engaged the company December 2017, and after completing payments December 2018, I am still waiting to take ownership as at 21st Jan, 2019. Building itself is acceptable. I still don't have the keys after 13 months. For a 60m2, 2 bedroom granny flat of one of their standard designs. E-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g with this company takes a-g-e-s. And… Read more

after receiving all my money, they now won't return my calls. I'm now waiting on the Dep't of Fair Trading to mediate for me.
