The G.J. Gardner story began in 1983 in Queensland Australia when a young builder, Greg Gardner, felt that clients deserved more than he saw the market offering. Greg commenced his own building company, basing his business around uncompromised quality and value, with homes designed to meet individual customer's needs and built to a committed time frame. The formula was such a success that G.J. Gardner Homes grew to be Queensland's largest home builder and in 1995 Greg decided to franchise the business with locally owned offices using the same proven formula to build quality homes right across Australia. By 1997 the G.J. Gardner Homes success story was known to the New Zealand building industry and enterprising New Zealanders seized the opportunity to bring the successful formula here. From fresh beginnings, with Greg's personal support and using the same principles he founded his business in 1983, G.J. Gardner Homes grew in just 4 years to become New Zealand's favourite home builders, building more homes than any other housing company. G.J. Gardner Homes has continued to grow and, in response to interest from South Africa and the USA, has also opened offices in these countries. We understand our customers determine our success and our vision is to have every customer recommend us to their closest friend.
