G.J. Gardner Homes Illawarra

Local expertise supporting G.J. Gardner Homes in the Illawarra
Buildcert GJ Gardner Homes Kingston Project 1

In the Illawarra region, G.J. Gardner Homes deliver quality new homes for families every day.

With a high volume of projects underway at any one time, they need approvals that are fast, reliable, and as straightforward as possible. For them, delays aren’t an option, so having the right certification partner is critical.

That’s why, they chose to partner with Buildcert.

Faster approvals with CDC guidance

For G.J. Gardner Wollongong, the ability to secure Complying Development Certificates (CDC) quickly and consistently is a game-changer. With our pre-assessments and practical guidance, more projects are pushed through under CDC rather than DA, cutting out lengthy council delays and keeping timelines on track.

Construction Administrator at G.J. Gardner Homes Wollongong, Narelle says whenever possible, they prefer to go down the CDC route because it saves so much time compared to a DA.

“The fast-tracked process means we can keep projects moving without unnecessary delays, which ultimately benefits both our team and our clients.”

Practical support when things get tricky

“On one project, we encountered a minor overlap with a heritage-listed item identified under Section 10.7. At the time, Council was still updating the listing, which had the potential to cause significant delays. Buildcert guided us through alternative pathways that enabled us to secure CDC approval in the in line with other homes we had delivered in the area. Their expertise ensured both our team and our clients were spared considerable time and stress.”

— Narelle

From partial certificates to tailored guidance on approvals, our approach is always about finding practical ways to help projects progress.

Residential Certifier at Buildcert, Ozzy says that our focus is on being proactive and reliable across every GJ Gardener project.

“By working closely with their supervisors and office staff, our team ensures consistency, strong communication, and confidence that compliance is taken care of.”

A partnership built on people

For G.J. Gardner Homes, what makes the partnership work is more than just technical expertise, it’s the way our team approach every project.

“We really value the kindness and professionalism of the Buildcert team at every stage of the build. From the initial approvals through to inspections and final completion, they make the process seamless and stress-free.”

— Narelle

With trusted certifiers who know the Illawarra and understand the demands of the building industry, G.J. Gardner Homes can get on with what they do best, building homes for local families, knowing their certification is sorted.
