Question 1

Are you an insured business and do you guarantee your work?

Accepted Answer

All structural construction work has to be guaranteed for 6 years which is industry standard, what sets us apart from our competitors though is that we guarantee all non-structural works for 12 months which is 9 months more than industry standards. The reason we do this is because once you have moved in to your new home by the time you have unpacked your boxes and settled in, usually 3 months has come and gone and the liability period is over, well we'll continue to come back for up to a year.  As for insurances we are fully insured and have certificates of currency for the following insurances - Workers Compensations insurance - Public Liability Insurance - Construction Risk insurance

Question 2

How did you decide to get into your line of work?

Accepted Answer

For as long as I can remember I like to build things, my favourite toys where building blocks as a kid and I can remember just sitting there for hours just building different buildings out of blocks. It was a natural progression after I finished school to go into building and I have been here ever since and I still love everyday

Question 3

Do you have a favourite customer story you would like to share?

Accepted Answer

There are many customer stories we have with many customers, all are individual and personal to each and every client. Why not contact us and get the building process under way and create our own individual stories together

Question 4

What do you like most about your job?

Accepted Answer

The thing I love most about building is taking a clients idea which might be in their head and making it a reality. I am passionate about design and construct, where I can be with the client and guide them through the whole building process from start to finish

Question 5

What questions should a customer ask to hire the right service professional?

Accepted Answer

There are many questions that need to be asked of any professional before signing any contracts but the most important and strangely one of the least asked questions is the "Are you insured and Licensed". We at Gardner Construction encourage you to check up on our licenses and insurances so you can have the peace of mind to know you are dealing with a true professional and not just another shonky tradesman. We actually make it a point to show you all our details so that you dont have to go searching or incase you forgot.

Question 6

What questions do customers commonly ask and how would you answer them?

Accepted Answer

The number one question we get from clients after we have supplied a quote is "when can you start" Our answer to that is - we have an online integrated customer portal for our customers to log in and track their job, we schedule all of our current and future projects with great detail so that we can ensure that we don't overlap on any jobs and still provide each and every client with the customer service that they expect from Gardner Construction

Question 7

What makes you the most reliable and trustworthy person for the job?

Accepted Answer

I could be like everyone else and tell you how good I am and what makes me the best, but why not let one of our past clients tell it for me-  "Owen was a pleasure to deal with. he finished the works on time and with minimal fuss. Our property was a little victorian heritage semi so we expected some difficulties in marrying the old with the new. Owen took us through these problems clearly and simply as they arose. They were all sorted out in a professional, practical and timely manner. The end result has been a lovely home which is affordable and very much our own. I would not hesitate to recommend Owen to anyone who wants a professional and ethical builder to help them build their home." David ...Woollahra

Question 9

What are the typical things that you need to know before you can provide a quote to a customer?

Accepted Answer

As we are in the renovation area of construction there are a number of factors to this question and each site has different things we need to know before providing a quote.  The main thing is to arrange for a site visit with one of our friendly staff so we can see for ourselves the works that need to be carried out.

Question 10

How can a customer save money before you start the work? Please give 3 tips

Accepted Answer

The easiest way for clients to save money before starting work is to do the following three things- 1. Be very specific in what you want and ensure that this is clear to the Builders who are giving you pricing 2. Be strict with timing, Ensure that you get a detailed construction schedule from the builder prior to starting works 3. Have all your selections made prior to starting the construction works- No one likes to wait for a client who still hasn't made up their minds and it will only cost you more money in the long run.
