Testimonials From Our Customers
I’ve seen Gary Donaldson and his team at work on local building projects for some time. I’ve been impressed with his work ethic and the final result, sometimes even through very challenging weather conditions.
I approached Gary regarding building a substantial extension to our family home. Right from the start, the things that stand out are Gary’s communication skills, explaining the steps, processes and timelines required for our build project. Gary provided us with a build cost estimate prior to starting. We were well informed all the way during the building process and didn’t have any extra surprises at the end.
Gary has an excellent team of people that “crack on” and get the job done right first time. I recall listening to his team’s laughter, friendly banter and positive communications from the start of the day until the days work was done, every day.
Gary is well organised and kept the project moving forward with materials arriving prior to being required and his specialist sub trades contacts to take the project to the next stage.
Tania & I are both delighted with the quality of workmanship delivered and the building experience we had with Gary Donaldson Builders and his team. They project was completed on time. They all worked hard and did a great job. We would have no hesitation in recommending Gary Donaldson for any building projects and when we have our next building project we will be talking once again to Gary about our new plans and engaging in his services.
We have built a few new homes and renovations in the past. We found that based on the above points, Gary Donaldson’s company has been the best company to deal with.
If anyone would like to view this build that Gary has completed for us we’d be proud to show you and talk directly.
Cheers,

Gary project managed and built a minor dwelling for me and he made the entire process
flow easily from start to finish. He continually consulted with me and kept to the agreed timelines. Gary has excellent organisational skills and has a great team of guys who work hard and to a high standard. I definitely would recommend Gary Donaldson for any building work. He is professional, is particular about detail while working within a budget.
We all know it’s not always a good idea to use family to do work for you. This guy is different.
Gary is my nephew and has done work for our company, Donaldson Pools, and around our home for quite a few years now and has always done a very tidy job and is easy to deal with. I
recommend him to all my clients where this is building work to be done as I know he won’t let me down.
Our experience with G Donaldson builders was great.
We had never renovated a home before and had no idea what was required. G Donaldson Builders made it very easy, convenient and their workmanship was excellent.The Builders are all friendly and patient. service was great and they were always punctual. They kept us in the loop and are excellent at responding to e-mails or calls.
We highly recommend G Donaldson Builders to anyone who is considering building of any kind.
Gary has completed many building works for us over the past 10 years, from decking to renovation work. The workmanship and attention to detailed displayed by Gary and his team is first rate. Gary is always extremely accurate with his estimates and provides very fair and reasonable quotes. During our many projects Gary has always kept us up to date on any variations, and consequently avoided any surprises.
I would recommend Gary Donaldson Builders without hesitation.
We gave Gary and his team a job that required renovating parts of an old home and joining it with a new building. This required lots of materials sourcing to match new with existing. As we all suspected, there were challenges along the way but none of them phased Gary, in fact we learned that he prefers this type of working as it makes the most of his problem solving nature.
Although his team were young, they were drilled with high standards and the attention to detail was great to see. Nothing was ever too much effort.
Gary is honest, straight talking and gives great advice without ever being pushy. He doesn’t suggest things because they are easy, but because he knows the outcome will be better for the customer.
I will be on the phone to Gary with any future building work requirements.
Dave and I can be rather fussy and precise about what we want and who we hire to build and renovate our houses. In Gary and the team from G Donaldson Builders we’ve found builders who listen to us, understand what we want and go out of their way to deliver a product that always exceeds our expectations.
Gary builds to a very high level of quality, and he has passed knowledge on to his workers, as we discovered when he built another house on our property. He came up with suggestions for improving the finishing lines that we’d not even considered, and the end result was sensational.
In the past we’ve recommended Gary to anyone building or renovating, and will continue to do so, as we’re confident that whoever takes him on will be thrilled with the result.
Just a note to thank you, Rex and your team for the wonderful you’ve done. You are always so obliging and pleasant to liaise with. We are getting so many positive comments on the outside and how modern it looks, you are a trendsetter with your style of fence. With much appreciation for being so efficient and available to us.
We are very impressed with the professionalism of all the work and especially the ease of dealing with Gary and his team.
