We recently had our external selections appointment at Mojo My Choice design studio in Thornton, with the amazing Emma S to help guide us. Emma was such a pleasure to work with; professional, kind and understanding. She left no stone unturned, explaining all our options when it came to materials and colours. She truly went above and beyond to make… Read more
us feel heard and not rushed! Both my partner and I left this appointment SO excited with what is to come. We are so grateful for everythig Emma did for us and really hope we get to work with her again soon.
We went in with an inspo picture of what we envisioned for our home and Danielle was kindly able to guide us and help make the selection process so much quicker within our budget. The range that Mojo offers is amazing so you aren’t limited by colour etc. Show details · 1
We have finally reached one of the most special milestones of our lives—receiving the keys to our dream home—and our hearts are filled with gratitude and joy. Our journey with Mojo during the construction phase has been nothing short of wonderful, and so much of that is thanks to our incredible supervisor, Aiden. From the very beginning, he went… Read more · 1
above and beyond in every possible way. We had heard how important a good supervisor is, and now we truly understand why—we were fortunate enough to have a true gem. Aiden cared for our home as if it were his own. Every detail mattered to him, and he ensured everything was completed with care, precision, and timeliness. Without fail, every Friday we received updates or a call from him, along with photos showing the progress. Even when we couldn’t be there in person, it felt like we were part of the journey, seeing everything through his eyes. That level of dedication gave us so much comfort and peace of mind. His passion, sincerity, and commitment made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and worry-free. In fact, we truly realised how valuable he was during the short time he was on leave—his presence is simply irreplaceable. Aiden also went out of his way to accommodate all our inspection requests and even helped us organise a beautiful surprise reveal for our kids. That moment is something we will cherish forever, and we are so thankful to him for making it so special. A heartfelt thank you to Carlos for your constant support and guidance throughout this journey. You, along with Aiden, made everything feel easy and stress-free for us. And to our area manager Scott—your quick response and support during Aiden’s leave truly showed how much you care. We always felt we were in safe and capable hands. When we chose Mojo, we had high hopes—but the outcome has exceeded all our expectations. Our home has turned out beautifully, and we are absolutely in love with the quality, the finish, and every detail of it. We also want to take a moment to sincerely thank all the hardworking people behind the scenes—the trades, builders, and everyone involved in bringing our home to life. Your effort, skill, and dedication have not gone unnoticed, and we are deeply grateful for the care you have put into building our home. Of course, there are always small things to be finalised, but we have complete trust in this amazing team and know they will handle everything with the same care and professionalism. This journey has been emotional, exciting, and truly unforgettable. We are beyond grateful, and we wholeheartedly recommend Mojo to anyone looking to build their dream home. From the bottom of our hearts—thank you for giving us not just a house, but a place filled with love, happiness, and “More Joy.” With love Arun and Greeshma

We had our Internal Selections appointment with Emily Carr yesterday, and she was absolutely amazing!

We had Emma Savaiinaea at Thornton MyChoice design studio for our external/ internal selections. Emma made our whole process easy from start to finish. She understood my vision from the word go and helped bring together a beautiful coastal toned pallet.

People be careful not saying is bad company but the policy they have for repairs is 6 months witch is to early all is happening after a year big repairs.When you are in design studio be careful they do not like a lot of changes in the build if you not spend 80k and more very difficult to agree what you as buyer want to do at least that was our… Read more · 1
felling and experience with 3 out of five people that we met there.This is just a quick submit of a year pass.The job is now left on us to repair 20+ cracks around the house swollen fireproof laundry door cracked tiles in bath tub witch in first place we did not want and haven't used at all but we were persuaded to install,nails coming from the gyprock string's coming of the carpet gutter doesn't have fall all doors not painted underneath collecting moisture and water getting into them the antena on the roof moving and making squeaking noise when windy on colorbond sheets and more.Most of the people will say or is doable cosmetic things but when you add the labour materials it adds up and why i should do it hasn't been a year pass. There is more things to explain but this is just a little help for anyone that thinking to build. If any one needs more information can contact me on Facebook..Zumzum Koratja. Cheers everyone.
Mojo is simply impressive in the way it approaches its build. I had a good comparison with other builders building in my street and Mojo was efficient and effective plus the finish is really stunning. I reckon it is because they great project management softwares, reputable partners in the trade and well trained and experienced project coordinator… Read more · 1
and Site Supervisor.
Brayden is our Site supervisor and he is the main man ensuring everything falls into place in terms of timing and quality. He is also light and fun to deal with and honest. He gave us peace of mind that our dream home will be built exceeding our expectations.
Even after handover, he is still accessible and responds to our needs.
Overall, if I am to build again, it will be with Mojo most likely noting their unbeatable promotions.
Thanks heaps Brayden, Bella and Team Mojo!

IF I COULD GIVE LESS STARS I WOULD!!! DO NOT BUILD WITH THESE CLOWNS!!!! DODGY BUILDERS WITH EVEN WORSE AFTERCARE. We have been in since late 2021, house has leaked continuously since day one, they have replaced our portico ceiling once already due to water leaks but never fixed the actual problem which is the Colourbond roof and flashing above,… Read more
they finally came out yesterday after almost 8 months since roofer diagnosed problem, they claimed to have fixed the issue be replacing one of two parts that was deemed to be leaking but have not touched the flashing or the temporary diversion for water that was installed. 6 months ago, we had our garage flood due to these leaks and had to claim insurance. Due to water leaks into portico roof, water has seeped into walls causing the render to become wet, corrode and crack, they have painted one side of one pillar that had corrosion, still haven't fixed the problem like I said, still temporary fix in place. We have had problems with carpet in our daughter's bedroom that took nearly 2 years to get sorted. They forgot to crimp the fittings on our gas lines and pumped our house full of gas, directly above our son's bedroom. THE LIST GOES ON! the bottom panel of our roller door has been bent since day one, was in our original report at handover 4 years ago, still not fixed. been followed up countless times. Greg the Hunter area manager doesn't do anything in a timely manner. We have to chase everything up for months. Their aftercare painter is arrogant and has been rude to my wife on multiple occasions. The aftercare team do none of what they say. Just try to do small patches instead of fixing the problems. obviously just trying to get through the warranty period without We are currently seeking legal advice for how to proceed from here.
Latest follow-ups
Mojo Colour Room team are excellent and really helpful. We have had two appointments so far and both have been great. Nothing is a problem and the staff are very patient ensuring that you are comfortable with the decisions you have made. Cannot fault the team members or the process so far. Show details · 1
Follow-up · We have finished all our selections in the Colour Room at Thornton and are now moving towards construction. All the staff have been extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Ryan sorted our electrical and had some great advice. Lauren our Project manager has also been excellent. Selection range is good however there is a wider selection available that are upgrades if you choose to pay for them.
Positive reviews
I’m extremely happy with the service provided by my project coordinator, Josh McFarlane during the pre-construction phase. He has been professional, responsive, and very helpful throughout the entire process. His clear communication and support made everything smooth and easy to manage. I truly appreciate his effort and dedication, and it’s been a great experience working with him so far. Show details · 1
We recently completed our externals and internals selection with Amanda and Jena respectively. TO say that it was a wonderful experience would be an understatement.

something we are very excited become a reality. Amanda and Jena are wonderful assets to the MyChoice Studio and have been a standout of the entire experience.
I can only comment on the planning stage so far, as the build has not begun, but Callan at the Thornton office has been incredibly helpful with finding a solution for my very narrow block. He has answered my many questions and was flexible and accommodating where other builders were reluctant to help me until I paid a deposit. Based on the… Read more · 1
upgrades I think I will get a really great home at the end. I have built before and know weather and supplier issues affect all builders but I appreciate the ability to know the cost upfront and lock in a price.
Negative reviews
Our experience with Mojo (part of the Macdonald Jones Group) was a tale of two very different phases. Pre-construction and sales: The sales team and pre-construction service were exceptional. We were treated professionally, all our questions were answered promptly, and the guidance during selections and planning made the process smooth. Based on… Read more
this experience, we initially left a 5-star review on Product Review, which reflected the excellent service at that stage.
Construction phase: Unfortunately, the construction phase was a very different experience. Communication was inconsistent and extremely frustrating. Despite explaining that we live four hours away, our site supervisor rarely provided updates, with calls sometimes months apart. The online portal was only updated 10 times across 17 months of construction.
Delays were frequent and poorly communicated. For example, an 11-week delay occurred before the slab was laid due to drainage plan issues—but no one proactively informed us. Contacting the construction coordinator or site supervisor often went unanswered, and the few times we reached management, promises to resolve issues were not fulfilled.
Even when progress was being made, attention to detail was lacking. Near the end of construction, minor mistakes caused further delays, and handover was conducted with minimal professionalism or courtesy. Many post-handover items remain incomplete even 15 months after moving in, including unresolved warranty issues and a persistent spotlight that never worked.
A serious repair issue arose when black mould appeared on our media room ceiling. After weeks of chasing, the problem was identified as a tiling/waterproofing error by a subcontractor, which could have caused significant damage if left unaddressed.
Overall: If you are building with Mojo, your experience seems to hinge almost entirely on your site supervisor. For us, the construction and post-construction phases were frustrating and poorly managed, and despite some efforts to escalate issues, the service did not improve significantly. While the pre-construction phase was excellent, the ongoing delays, lack of communication, and incomplete post-handover work make it difficult to recommend Mojo for full-service construction.
If we had our time again, we would choose another builder. Based on both our experience and ongoing issues faced by neighbours, it seems these problems are not isolated.

We are extremely disappointed with the experience of building our new family home with MOJO Homes. What was supposed to be an exciting journey of building our dream home with handover 2 years and 8 months ago, has turned into a prolonged nightmare that we desperately want to end. While our initial interactions during the sales and selections… Read more
phase were relatively smooth, the problems began to surface during the pre-construction stage. Due to engineering mistakes on MOJO's part, our build start was delayed by six weeks.
The construction phase was filled with issues, taking over 16 months to complete our build. We were told throughout construction that this was attributed to a combination of weather conditions, supply shortages and contractor shortages. However, what made the situation unbearable was the poor communication and misinformation from MOJO's over-stretched construction managers. We found ourselves having to closely monitor the build and bring issues to MOJO's attention in order for issues to be rectified before it was too late.
The handover, 2 years and 8 months ago on 22/12/2022 was marred by multiple known defects and, a lack of an occupancy certificate due to multiple issues that prevented the occupancy certificate from being issued, of which we were left with no choice but to fix ourselves. Almost 3 years later we are still dealing with numerous unresolved issues such as: * The grout in both shower bases has quickly fallen out a total of three times including after being topped up by the service and warranty team. The shower base floors also do not drain correctly and never have. * Both shower frames are retaining water and now rusting at the base. * Shower bases are leaking into the subfloor of both bathrooms, which is covered in black mould, an issue we reported over a month ago. * The back stacker sliding door was installed without the correct supports, causing it to sag immediately and not slide properly. Despite promises to rectify this once and for all more than three months ago, we have yet to hear back when this will happen. * The under-house door frame was cracked upon installation, and despite promises for replacement, we again have heard nothing.
Throughout this ordeal, we have had to chase up the MOJO Service and Warranty Team multiple times, and most responses we have received have frustratingly been "we are waiting on contractors or suppliers to get back to us with dates for repairs”.
Today, we have received an email telling us that all defects assigned to the MJH Service and Warranty Team have been repaired on 2 June 2025, and have asked us to sign off on the defect report. We will not be signing this report until ALL of our defects are rectified.
Our experience has been incredibly disappointing, and we are eager for resolutions to ALL of our remaining issues, so we can move on and finally enjoy our home.

Our pre construction and contract journey with mojo started well and got worse through poor communication, and lack of professionalism.

The design process is very thorough and you can truly create whatever “look” you are aiming for. Which is great, the people we have dealt with have all been amazing and very helpful.

off your choices after each selection day and in the contract these choices are final and if you want to make a change it’s a minimum cost of $1000 just to change. I believe you should be free to make changes untill after the final selection day as it makes it hard to budget as the prices for amendments to the standard aren’t know untill you are making the selection. All in all it’s been a good experience I have just noticed a few improvements mojo could make.
Cal from Mojo Homes has shown outstanding diligence and a genuine commitment to our vision for building our new home. Every interaction, from correspondence to meetings has been streamlined, professional, and resulted in great outcomes. Cal’s goal-orientated approach consistently drives quick and favorable results. Highly recommend, and we can’t thank him enough for his support throughout the process. Show details · 1
This is our second build with Mojo. We were impressed with the quality and cost-effective inclusions with our first build that we would be silly not to come back. We are currently in the pre-construction phase. Our consultants, Cal and Taylah have made the initial process exciting and streamlined.

Cannot fault Cal and the team at Mojo Thornton. They went above and beyond with our difficult block of land; liaising with council and keeping us well updated. At no stage did I feel pressured. It was a far better experience than we received from similar project builders. Safe to say, the customer service was so excellent, it’s one of main reasons we went with Mojo in the end.

The time spent with our Mojo rep was fast paced - particularly in terms of dialogue and at times this was overwhelming. Even tho we came in prepared with our external colour choices, ideas and vision. At our internal colour selection we are hoping that the pace of dialogue slows allowing us time to make considered and well thought through decisions and choices for our amazing home that we are beyond excited to build.

Building on this positive experience, we believe an area for future enhancement lies in the visualization tools used. The closer these digital renderings are to the client's final home design, the better.
