Dream home, Mildura – Being first home builders my husband and I had mixed emotions after hearing many 'horror' stories. We shopped around with different building companies and by far JG King Homes Mildura were the most approachable and affordable. From our very first consultation to dealing with our site manager on a regular basis, we had nothing but pleasant… Read more

experiences. We would make phone calls, send emails and text messages to JGKing staff and were always given a response quite quickly, we also asked many questions and never once felt as though we were being a 'pain'. Our problems and concerns were dealt with very quickly and professionally. We would like to thank JGKing staff from Mildura for making our dream home come to life, in particular to our site manger [name removed] for making our building experience enjoyable, smooth and stress free. We have recommended JGKing Homes Mildura to friends (who are currently building with JGKing) and without hesitation would recommend to anyone. A big credit to JGKing for quality customer service. Thank you we love our new home.

Left me dissapointed – The initial build with JG King Mildura went without major issues and progressed well. The problems started after handover. A number of items needed repairs at our 3 month maintenance period. This is completely understandable and expected. Unfortunately, some of the items took too long to repair and many, many attempts to repair the faults. I will… Read more

say however that the site supervisor was good and made arrangements to repair most of the issues that I had. The remaining items I was told were within tolerances or simply ignored. An example of this is a leaking toilet. I have found though that wedging a deodorant stick in the cistern to stop the hose pulling on the valve has eliminated the leak. Movement has caused issues with cracking and gaps requiring a number of visits by tradies to fix up. I have lost count on the number of times I would need to leave work to let tradies into the house for repairs. The site supervisor was pretty good and sent painters out a number of times before telling me that enough was enough.

Unfortunately, in my opinion the quality of the repairs have been below an acceptable level. From handover, leaks were present in both showers took 2 years to resolve. This has caused water damage to walls and carpets. Walls have been patched up however this is unnoticeable. The carpet in the master bedroom that is on the other side of the leaking shower has turned black underneath and carpet tack strip has rotted. Following replacement of the underlay throughout the hose (incorrect underlay was installed) carpets are still loose and not secured down at a number of sections throughout the house. Two and half years after handover, we are still waiting on carpets to be properly repaired. The paintwork and patch ups throughout the house is below my expectations and I have found it frustrating that a number of times, tradies have attended to make a repair and instead caused further damage e.g small holes placed in ceiling while fixing a loose air con register. This was not a huge issue but took close to 12 months to patch and paint holes.

I’ve lost count of the number of times our cavity sliding doors had to be repainted due to screws in the cavity scratching the surface. A warning that to anyone that is getting awning windows, make sure you upgrade the window winders. These are of poor quality. The casing buckles if you wind the window too tight, making it very difficult to open or close the window. The suggestion by the installer was to “smash the casing straight again with a block of timber”. If you are wanting the 'Trent' facade, make sure you check if the render that is shown in the illustration is included in the price. We paid the upgrade price and were told later by our site supervisor that the piers are not rendered. All sales brochures show it as rendered so this is misleading. My overall feeling is that while JG King may have had good intentions, the workmanship of some of the tradies have let them down. The experience of building was not difficult but the inconvenience of everything that followed has made me rethink if I would ever build again.

The Mildura team are friendly and great to work with. Very helpful – My experience with JG King Homes Mildura has been great. I got them to build the H2 design of the UP range which was very well priced and I got a lot of extras that didn't cost me too much. The house ended up looking very beautiful,was designed well and I love the fact that you don't have to ever worry about termites because of JG Kings steel… Read more

frames. The team at JG King Mildura are excellent, so helpful and easy to work with. I would fully recommend JG King Mildura to build you a beautiful home which you will love and that lasts a life time. Great work JG King Mildura!!

Great Result! – My wife and I decided to write up a review of our experience building with JG King homes Mildura . For anyone looking to build a new home in the Mildura region we'd highly recommend them. We've recently moved into our second home built by JG King homes and we are very happy with the outcome . As with our first build (and any build) there… Read more

were a few minor issues along the way which were dealt with in the utmost professional manner and rectified very quickly to our satisfaction.

I can tell you now I'm not easily pleased and can be quite fussy at times but they've come through with a good end result.

The building supervisor that's worked with us on both occasions is dedicated to his job and in my opinion second to none.

Toward the end of our build a second building supervisor came on board the team which worked in with us also with great communication and all of our questions answered promptly ( there were quite a few)

From our experience in the build process communication was of great importance to us and they didn't once let us down, from building supervisors to the girls in the office everyone has done a great job!

Another pro of building with JG King is the steel frame which had me sold from the start. There isn't many steel frame builders in this region and for a termite prone area seems strange. It was an easy choice for us having spoken with a few other builders before building our first and second homes, some were rude others weren't forthcoming on pricing as we wanted upgrades on certain things and wanted to know what we'd be up for pre contract.

On one occasion we had three meetings with another local builder which we could not get an accurate price out of !

JG Kings pricing is crystal clear and listed with each plan , no secrets and no hidden costs (try getting that elsewhere!)

With kings they don't rob you blind for upgrades as other builders seem to .

In conclusion a steel frame home and in my opinion very good value for money in the current climate , good overall finish and great people to work with throughout the building process .

We always see reviews from people who were unsatisfied with things and people who sit behind a keyboard and rubbish others for a poor job but not so often people take the time to say well done good job!

We hope this helps others out there when deciding on a local builder and hope you have as good an experience as we did with JG King Homes Mildura.
