One of the best experience with this jandson homes. Services had been done and ticked. We glad to build one with you. Please keep up your good work and good trades people. Quality trades are hard to find these days. Show details
My experience with Jandson Homes has been extremely frustrating and stressful. They issued the Practical Completion Inspection despite the fact that key contracted works—specifically landscaping—were clearly incomplete, which prevented me from occupying my home as planned. They ignored their contractual obligations regarding liquidated damages… Read more
and added interest to the final invoice. Even more concerning, they failed to provide any formal written extension of time notice as required under Clause 19.2 of the HIA contract, yet still claimed entitlement to additional time. This shows a clear disregard for both the contract and basic consumer rights.
Despite multiple attempts to resolve the issue directly, Jandson Homes dismissed my concerns, leaving me no choice but to escalate the matter to NSW Fair Trading and the Building Commission.
Their handling of this matter reflects a serious lack of transparency, accountability, and respect for the client. I strongly caution others—do not proceed with Jandson Homes unless you are prepared to deal with delays, disputes, and possible legal intervention.

Terrible Build - Do not Use – Unfortunately, my experience with Jandson Homes has been riddled with ongoing issues and poor workmanship. After settling in June 2024, a number of significant problems emerged, each revealing a lack of quality control and care in the build process which include: - Water Leak from Ceiling: A persistent leak from the ceiling appeared shortly after… Read more
moving in. It took more than 5 months for Jandson Homes to even locate the source, leaving the wall water-damaged, with paint flaking and noticeable markings. At this point, the entire wall requires replacement, which could have been avoided with more timely action and thorough inspections. - Frequent Electrical Cutouts: The electrical system was severely flawed, causing power outages over 50 times. I had to reset the main breaker constantly, sometimes up to five times a day. Despite repeated complaints, this critical issue took more than 2 months to fix, creating unnecessary frustration and inconvenience. - Large Hole Near Gutter: A sizeable hole was discovered near the gutter with no clear explanation provided for its purpose or reason for being left unattended. This unsightly gap reflects a lack of attention to detail and raises questions about the durability and safety of the roof structure. - Concrete Finishing Errors: The quality of the concrete finishing was poor due to an apparent mistake by the builder. This kind of oversight speaks to a lack of care and proper craftsmanship, as such a critical element should have been executed to a higher standard. - Subpar Painting: The painting was uneven and messy, with streaks and patches visible throughout the home. It was done in such a rushed and careless way that it will likely need a complete redo to meet even a basic level of quality. - Faulty Air Conditioning: The air conditioning system has not functioned since day one due to a faulty water pump, which the technicians confirmed was improperly installed. Even though this issue should be covered under warranty, I was instructed to submit a claim for something that shouldn’t have been defective from the start. In the meantime, I had to purchase two portable air conditioners to manage the summer heat, incurring additional costs and inconvenience. - Bathroom Leaks and Rusty Hinges: Multiple leaks in the bathroom suggest poor plumbing, and even minor hardware such as hinges were found rusty, implying low-quality materials and poor weatherproofing. - Shower Screen Installation: The shower screen was installed with silicone instead of proper bolts, creating a shoddy and insecure result. This kind of workaround suggests a lack of professionalism and disregard for long-term durability. - Low-Quality Cabinetry: The cabinetry in the kitchen is of visibly poor quality, with ill-fitted parts and shoddy finishes. This detracts from the overall look and functionality of the kitchen, which was a major investment.
These issues are just the beginning—there are numerous other minor defects that would take far too long to list. I was pressured into settling to avoid losing my deposit, despite being aware of some 'minor issues' that Jandson Homes assured me would be quickly resolved. In hindsight, I deeply regret proceeding with settlement under these conditions.
I strongly advise against choosing Jandson Homes. The quality and service have been disappointingly substandard, and it is inconceivable that they handed over a home with so many unresolved issues. For the price and expectation of quality, this has been a deeply frustrating and regretful experience

Very delay on fix – I had roof water Mark in my porch and alfresco which was fixed before. After 1year, it happen again and became worse at same place and my whole roof in alfresco are turn black. Maintenance guy coming once for checking, then he said he need to change the sheet underneath the roof as the sheet may be wet and cause roof mould. And he said he will… Read more
organize and came back again to fix. They did call me once and said coming to fix but without appointment and i refused as I was not at home at that time. Since then, it has been a few months and i tried to contact them but very hard. One day they contacted me and said coming on Friday, but actually not coming, then I tried to contact again and no reply again. 1week later they replied me that would contact me on this Monday but until now, no any call, no email, nothing. They are definitely liars. It has been 6months since i sent the first email. I don't know what's going on, very weird. Always make promises, but no results. I don't know how to do. Need help!!!!!
Hi Mei can you please contact me with the property… Read more (+1 reply)

Great service – We have bought land and house package from Julie Hoang at Jandson Home. She has helped us a lot and provided good advice on how to re-allocate kitchen island and walk-in pantry to maximise the space. We opted to extend the house plans and we are extremely happy with the outcome Show details
Highly recommended builder – We chose to go with Jandson home for our knock down and rebuild. We met with Julie Hoang and she was very helpful from the beginning of the process up until the end. We are nearly the final stage of our build know which is getting the keys and it's been a great process. Julie is very patient and understands that because it was our first time, she… Read more
also has us a lot of tips and tricks and even pointers too. We are glad to have met Julie and would highly recommend Jandson has a building company.
Fantastic experience with Jandson Homes – So great experience with my Jandson Homes for my first dream home in Bingara Gorge Wilton. Great start after the land settlement. Excellent customer service from sale team, support team and construction team. Very accurate notice for every step since I bought the land and building package. Very supportive helpful and effective for me as a… Read more
beginner for building a house by self. Appreciate Jandson Homes. I will build my future dream homes with Jandson Homes again.
Negative reviews
An ok job but certainly wouldn't recommend them to friends or use them again – The design and build process was fine although I do think they could have been more forthcoming with options. Being a first-time builder, and given that this is likely our home for some time, there are a lot of things we would have done differently if we had known more. I think Jandson could have provided that experience. I would have preferred to… Read more
have spent the money then, rather than look back wishing I had done things differently. We also elected to do our own flooring as we werent happy with the options provided to us, and yet there was no saving to be made. So in effect, we paid for our flooring twice. And Jandson made 100% profit on the amount we paid to them for it. What really frustrates me, and the reason I am writing this review, is the lack of care for the defects process. Smaller issues were resolved but the one difficult one has been ignored after a couple of lacklustre attempts to fix. Unfortunately, we are still stuck living with noisy guttering when the wind blows anything more than a gust. It is loud enough to keep us awake at night, and for our neighbours to have complained.
Construction delay – We are building our home in Austral. It’s a 4 bed, 2.5 bath and 2 garage. The land was registered at the time of purchase. In fact that was the very reason we chose Jandson Homes cause we wanted to move by at least Aug-Sept 2020 which is what we highlighted to the sales consultant. We signed our land and building contracts before Xmas 2019.… Read more
However the construction did not start till September 2020. We were not provided regular updates of where our building is at and in fact we had to follow up Jandson Homes for it. When we met our site supervisor in September, he did not even have the full details of our colour selection which we did in May 2020. We will finally be having our tile selection next week. We’ve just received a timeline that the practical completion of our house will be in July 2021. I understand there is Covid but we were only shut down for a very short while in March-April. This is our first build and is proving to be quite stressful. I will update further regarding the quality of the build as we progress.
Hi Gazala I agree there were delays prior to… Read more (+1 reply)
Slow to fix faults – Brought new in jordan springs in 12/2019 then it rained in 2/2020 and had major leaks inside still waiting for the repairs to be completed. Very slow always come up with excuses coming up to our 6 months warranty to fix defects make you wonder how long to fix these. Show details

Great experience, will build with them again in future – We met Julie when we came to their display homes. Our first impressions of her are, approachable, sensible, fair and helpful. We found the process approach taken by Julie and Jandson is more customer centric than most other builders. They allow the house design to be changed without costing us arms and legs, only material cost differences will be… Read more
calculated. Julie went extra miles for us in helping clarify several things and negotiate with the previous land owner. There were some uncertainties on our part during the financial settlement but Julie and Karen were flexible enough to go through it with us. During the design phase, Kristy and Graham were very very helpful & informative. Kristy has an eye of details and very good taste of design. Rob, the site Supervisor was very approachable, helpful and informative too. We came almost every weekend when the house was built and it was very satisfying. The issues we raised were quickly addressed and handover was done smoothly. The only thing that we think could be improved is inclusion of extra soil removal and basic site preps for landscape works, these bit us with unbudgeted costs. We have been living in the house for over a year now. Yes, minor issues were found, but overall, we love it, the quality of the works and materials are good. Maintenance team are also helpful. We also learnt that most people who work in Jandson have been with the business for a very long time. Well done Jandson for building such a strong team. Will definitely build with you and team again for our next one.
So Happy!! – We begun oursearch for ournew home and upscaling in 2016. Jandson came highly recommended and my wife's brother in law does business with Jandson.. Our discussions and plans began with Helen from Jandson homes who was simply fantastic.Such a pleasant person who belive it or not took such a personal interest in our plans and provided such workable… Read more
solutions... She is the epitome of what a company looks for in an employee and helped made our dreams come true. We still keep in touch with her. Towards the final stages of us qcquiring our home we were then fortunate enough to be managed by Theresa who was also very polite and proffessional. Finally Sue McDonald did an awesome job with following up on all maintainance questions we had. We love our home, its solid structure and I keep standing outside my home daily to view how lucky we are to have trusted Jandson to build our dream and our home.
Excellent Customer Service from Julie Hoang – We signed up the House and Land package in Austral with Jandson Homes Real Estate. Julie Hoang is the sales agent.

Julie Hoang - Excellent customer service for Sales – We are only currently just at the end of the pre-construction stage. As the first contact, Julie has gone above and beyond in helping us make a decision especially with the Covid restrictions in place. All questions were answered in a timely manner and for those questions that involved other departments she followed up on those and provided us the… Read more
update. Never pushy she is frank and honest with all our questions which means we were able to confidently make our purchase decisions. This was very much appreciated.
Construction has yet to commence, will provide feedback once construction has been completed. Thanks again Julie.

Highly recommend Jandson Homes !
Excellent Pre-construction Customer Service so far – Went with Jandson Homes for a House and land package in Austral. The whole process from start to pre-construction has been amazingly smooth. Julie Hoang was my main point of contact and she has been incredible throughout this time. I will update once the building has been completed as i am only at the pre-construction phase. Show details
Good builder with Excellent customer service – We've build our first home here in Austral through House & land Package. Jandson homes provided hassle-free experience. Julie Hoang was exceptional in guiding us from the beginning and helped us made right choices in design and inclusions.

Excellent Correspondence and Customer Service – Jandson Homes provides great customer support during and after building. They are extremely easy to contact and do their best to offer as much assistance possible. I had the joy of working with Julie Hoang, who helped with the selection of my land and delivered on the many requests I made. Show details
Great service, great company, very happy first home buyer – My husband and I were part of the 10,000 first home buyers with a 5% deposit. We were looking for a while for a house that got the criteria we needed as well as what we could afford. We looked at countless display homes and dealt with many builders who told us they couldn’t help us or who never even bothered to contact us back. One day while… Read more
strolling through homeworld, we came across Jandson homes, we took a look through the display home, and while the display home was not what we were looking for, we spoke to a lovely woman named Helen who advised there was a house in Jordan springs that was within our budget and already built. We met her there and after 15 minutes of inspecting the house we decided that the house was everything we were looking for. We paid a deposit and began the purchase process.
Dealing with Helen and Jandson homes has been a pleasure, any issue (which were minimal) were instantly fixed, and I truly felt looked after while dealing with Helen.
We are super happy we decided to walk into that display home that day, despite not having heard of Jandson before, as we have now been living in our new home for almost a month and loving it.
Would recommend them to anyone looking at buying.
Helen still regularly checks in with me regarding the house and I am confident that when we submit the 6 month maintenance report any issues will be rectified shortly.
This is perfect – To Julie My husband and I were very happy with Julie's help guiding us through the building process of our home. She and the Jandson team were very experience and professional and are quick to solve all our queries. Especially Julie, she was very patient with us and guided us through the process smoothly. Thank you, Julie and the team. Show details

Very comfortable to deal with Julie Hoang & sales team at Jandson Home. Our investment's in good hands! – "We have bought an investment House & Land package from Jandson Homes. The property has been completed in time, and our tenants have already moved in for more than 6 months ago. When the tenants reported an error message of water blockage on the dish washer, Jandson has sent the plumber to fix on the next day; very efficient and very good. The… Read more
whole building process was so smooth that towards to the end, I didn’t even check my weekly email reports. It was very pleasant to work with them, especially Julie Hoang, she has always gone an extra mile to help us and given us good advice. We have already recommended Julie and Jandson Homes to some of our friends."
Julie Hoang – As a home buyer me and my wife was nervous to get our brand new home constructed but Jandson put us at ease and hopeful from the start. Julie Hoang and her team who value customers interest as their priority. We would recommend Julie Hoang to any person out there looking to build. Show details
Good experience with Julie Hoang and the team! – I am a first home buyer and of course, had little experience about properties and stuff. Saying that, an idea of building my very first house had never come across my mind until I decided to look into suburbs further to the West, and just wanted to see what developers have to offer. I never heard of Jandson Homes before, just a random walk-in… Read more
enquiry. Julie Hoang, the sales consultant, was extremely helpful and very nice. She was very knowledgeable and happy to answer all my questions. I like the way she presented – honest to the customer and didn’t try to trick you into an agreement or anything. She even referred me to a good solicitor at a very reasonable price.
I bought a House & Land package. My land has just settled, a bit delay but it wasn’t Jandson Homes’ fault. The whole process was smooth, Julie and other staff were very responsive, especially Julie. Yes, she always replied to my email/broker’s email within hours. They started to prepare the construction even before my construction loan has formally approved. Very impressive! The construction team has sent me email every week to keep me updated. I just got an email saying their contractor needs to meet me for an electrical plan next week. Will come back and update on the process as well as the quality of the construction. But so far, I am happy with the team and will definitely refer Julie Hoang to my family and friends. That's why I am writing this review to support them LOL
Excellent Experience! Plan to buy & build another house with them! – We have bought a House & Land Package from Jandson Homes in 2017. Honestly, we had never heard of Jandson Homes before. They seem not spend much on advertising, such as radio ads or TV commercials. We were a bit reluctant, but since we were very comfortable dealing with Julie, the sales consultant in Edmondson Park office, we decided to give it a… Read more
go.
The land registration was delayed for a couple of months, out of Jandson Homes’ control, but then the building process was a great experience. They were very responsive, and sent us the updates on a weekly basis. Denise was the lady looking after our construction admin works. She responded to our questions and enquiries almost on the same day; quite impressive! We have made some last minutes changes to the floor plan, and they didn’t even charge us any extra admin fees, unlike other home builders that we have experienced.
Our house is almost done now, handover in 3 weeks’ time. Not sure if there would be any issues in the future with the house, but until now, we are very happy with the whole process. Looking at buying another investment house & land package from them later this year.
Will never build with them again – A building company that takes no accountability for their mistakes. During the 6 month maintenance inspection the Jandson ''Inspector'' was extremely rude, and advised I was being ''too pedantic'' or he was not required to rectify the issue if he could not see the issue at or longer than 1.5metres, despite there being clear issues with the… Read more
paintworks, nail holes in the ceiling, wall cracking and the like.
It has been a constant uphill battle with Jandson Homes.
Jandson - great to deal with and excellent home! – My wife and I selected Jandson to build our home based on the design of the home and good reviews and reputation. Although we have built several homes in the country this was the first time in Sydney and we were not sure what to expect. Initially we dealt directly with the Director Graham who went to great lengths to find us the right block to… Read more
build our home at a good price. We were then supported by the Construction Manager Scott who was exceptional in helping us with navigating through various options and inclusions in our build. Again Scott also provided fantastic advice on costs of extras and different options to reduce our overall costs. I really found the level of flexibility that Jandson provided at a reasonable cost was very impressive for a project home builder. Our build was then coordinated by a range of staff and I found our Client Coordinator Theresa and our building supervisor Robert to be outstanding in their support and responsiveness to our requests. Building a home is always a challenge and things always go wrong. It happened to us but really minor issues that were resolved by the team. Robert was very responsive as the building supervisor and tradesman were also very good. The only negative was the costs charged by the electrical contractor for extras that we paid directly to them which was very high (although I am advised this is normal for trades in Sydney)
Numerous problems continuing – Built in 2006, and there were problems occurring throughout and after the building. Roof flashing was wrongly cut out then badly replaced, concrete floor had a huge lump in the lounge room, several leaks occurred including from upstairs bath drain into downstairs kitchen, upstairs roof & in pipe within wall. Then a month before the 7 year warranty… Read more
period was up we found problems in the brick finish and the veranda roof (built with incorrect pitch causing water to collect on beam, causing it to rot). Jandson sent workmen to measure to give the impression they were going to fix these issues, thus dragging the time out past the 7 years. Then they stopped responding to my calls & emails & I could not claim because the 7 year limit is to actually claim with the tribunal, not to 1st find the fault. Now the veranda is severely rotted, and needs to be replaced urgently.
Hi Tina, please give me a call to discuss the… Read more
Good experience – We are at the end of the process. The home was a project home including land. The sales and selection of materials was very easy. Some of the contractors were not as easy to deal with , but still OK. The construction took a little longer, but the biggest problem we had was the neighbour's builder. The defects was carried out by a contractor who… Read more
was efficient, though still needed chasing.
The build quality is good, there were no variations to the agreed price. We have just sold it ( that was our intention) and the agent commented that it was easier to sell than a rival brand.
Overall, we could do it again.
Extremely disappointed!!!! – I engaged Jandsons Homes to build my dream home. Whilst the back end office have provided superior service, have always been helpful and responsive, unfortunately I can’t say the same about the work done on my property. They breached the contract finish date by a few months. It took Jandsons homes 15 months to build my house. There was… Read more
zero quality control and the house was riddled with defects.
I moved into my property 7 weeks ago and:
- There was no gas connected to my cooktop for 9 days.
- All blue defecting tape had been ripped off and defects not fixed.
- Nearly every window in my double storey house had been scratched requiring replacement. Apart from the inconvenience to replace most windows, I had to fight to get it done. There has been at least 3 visits to date to prove and complete this and its still not done.
- Caesar stone benchtop had to be replaced and is now scratched from workers
- Appliances scratched.
- Poor paint work
- Water leaks
- Bowed window frames
- Incorrect installation of blinds
- Wrong grout used from colour selection
- Scratched tiles
- Cracked bricks
- Creaking floors
- No seals around doors for weather protection
- Staircase installed incorrectly and had lots of creaks which required replacement. It has not been lacquered for 3 weeks and is showing signs of sun damage.
All of this could have been resolved months before handover.
My house is still far from completion, I have had to take 9 days of annual leave and still not been able to complete the defects promised to complete. This ordeal hasn’t been easy and its cost me time and money.
Poor quality, I won’t be building with Jandsons Homes again… Save your time and money and go elsewhere!
Nice experience. Nice Staff – The construction was managed very well. The Project Supervisor Andrew and HQ Staff Denise, Evelyn, Pat were very accomodative and patient making it easy to talk to. Questions were handled promptly and professionally. Very happy with the result. Did not have unnecessary delays and the team were responsive to my situation. Any concerns or issues raised even after moving in were addressed without delay. Show details
First time, and we definitely got it right- thanks Jandson Homes! – We had all the normal worries about building a home, beginning from finding the perfect floor plan, to the contract & loan and then construction. Jandson Homes made this experience a whole lot better than what we had prepared our self for (after hearing all the other horror stories about first time building). We walked through over a hundred… Read more
displays homes, and came back to the very one we began in and we couldn't be happier we built it. Jandsons Homes Omega 29 is definitely one of the best floor designs we came across, with its open plan single storey living, and simple yet well thought out living/bedroom configuration. The customer service right from the moment we stepped into the display home with Pat, the Client Officers (Karen and Denise) and the Site Supervisor, Andrew, made the whole experience so well worth it.
Any queries I had along the way were meant with a friendly telephone, text or email, and were handled in an efficient manner. The weekly updates as to the progress of the construction were great, and the outstanding items on settlement were fixed in a timely manner by the supervisor. We had hired an independent building inspector on settlement and he remarked that the house was of a high quality.
Thanks to the team at Jandsons.

Fantastic First Home Build – Being a first home owner the thought of building a home was a scary thought but luckily we stumbled into the Jandson display village at Jordan Springs. The assistance we received from Scott made the whole experience of planning our first home a breeze, Scott was very down to earth and understanding of our needs and wants, was a great feeling… Read more
knowing any concerns or questions could be answered with a phone call or email to Scott who was very efficient and proactive. We were able to amend existing plans to suit our needs which was a key factor in us choosing to go with Jandson. The price was also a major factor, Jandson provided an affordable option for us to build our dream home and still live within our means. In comparison to other builders we were being provided with everything that fit our needs and wants a cheaper and more affordable price.
Once our first home was underway it seemed to fly past, everyday there seemed to be progress and if it wasn't for almost a full month of rain at the start we would have been in our home a lot sooner. Our site supervisor Rob was very approachable and very much on the ball, we experienced some troubles with trades damaging neighboring property and Rob dealt with efficiently. He is very down to earth and has still helps us out to this day even though we have moved past the construction phase.
Getting the weekly updates from the office staff is a great customer service tool that Jandson use as it gave us a heads up of work that has been completed and will be completed as we couldn't get out there some weeks to check on progress.
Having moved into our home now, we appreciate the work that has been put in by Jandson to make our dream a reality and ensure we are satisfied customers. We love our new home and would recommend Jandson as a builder to anyone including friends and family. Keep up the good work Jandson
