Has anyone had any experiences recently with any of these that they can share

Hi MP, We are currently building with GJ Gardner Rodney West and I wouldn’t build with them again. The communication has been awful and their project managers seem overworked. We have caught a large number of things that they have done wrong or missed. We have a disagreement currently about the measurements of the kitchen deviating from the signed plan. The good thing is that there has been no price increases (so far). If I have one piece of advice it is to ensure the contract has the right protection for you in it and when I build again I will have a communication schedule included as part of the agreement. That way I can ensure I know what is happening and can catch any issues before they become too big.

Finishing a large build with GJ, Be very careful. Not out to bag them but happy to share our experience and the things you need to be aware of with GJ in Rodney. In short a slick sales engine but sloppy delivery.

Totally agree , coming to the end of a large build with GJ. Having experienced what we have to date , I would not use them again. Totally agree re the comment from TS on contracting. Their contract is onerous, one sided and they refuse to move on any point. I raised this concern and was basically told we are big, we are the best, you have nothing to worry about. The reality, yes you do. Project Management is sloppy, communication is a challenge and all up a pretty dismal customer experience

Hi Mike we are in the process of building with GJ Rodney any advice would be appreciated 🙂 smgodfrey@gmail.com

Thank you TS.

Hi Mike, please could you give me your contact details if you its ok. We are looking to build our first home and our primary choice is GJ. Currently the land we have shortlisted is in Makarau further north from Kaukapakapa. A basic design in a rural land. Or please email me on pramodravi86@gmail.com Thank you in advance! Pramod

Hi Mike, currently building with GJ and would like to hear your experience please housebuildexperience@gmail.com

I would suggest to not pay all money over and move in before you are 100% happy with everything – they managed to get our house ready just before Christmas with a few minor things which needed touching up but now almost 2 months after moving in we are still waiting for someone to come back and fix those things – we have no leverage, they have all their money so have no need to come back, we still don’t have Code of Compliance and it doesn’t really seem like they care or are going to do anything about it
