Site Update:
Badagarang
Drainage work continues at Sue`s new build - with both internal and external drainage underway - carried out by the teams at @adn_excavations and @hi_performance_concreting
This one has a great story behind the design. Sue`s home is a `Type B` design, created specifically for narrow lots with dual frontage - a layout we`re seeing more of as some of the Badagarang blocks require this clever approach to make the most of the space available.
A great example of how the right design can turn a challenging block into a beautifully functional home.
We thrive on challenges, so if you`ve been thinking about building on a somewhat tricky block, come visit us at one of our display homes (there are FIVE to choose from! See the link in our bio!) or get in touch with our team.
Let us bring your vision to life.

🏆 Best Dressed:
Sue from @HarveyNormancommercial was a standout (she’s also currently building with us in Badagarang!)

AN EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE
Building a home is a big decision. Having the right team around you makes all the difference.
Here`s what one of our clients had to say about their experience building with G.J. Gardner.
"We had an excellent experience with GJ Gardner Shoalhaven from start to finish. The whole process was smooth, well organised, and completely stress-free. Communication was outstanding, and we received friendly weekly updates from Mel on the progress, so we knew exactly where the build was up to.
The whole team was professional, well connected, approachable, and genuinely cared about making the building process a positive experience.
Building a home can be quite stressful, and this was quite the opposite. Massive thanks to Jake who was our supervisor. The quality of the build throughout with all the trades is a credit to yourselves and all of GJ Gardner Shoalhaven. We couldn`t be happier with the service we received and would highly recommend GJ Gardner Shoalhaven Homes to anyone looking to build.
We are at the 90 day maintenance stage and we have no items to report. the quality of the build. Thank you to the entire team - we look forward to working with you again in the future!"
