G&M Building
Two repeat clients have now built their entire home with Glenn and Matt — twice.
Based on those 14 reviews, the most decision-relevant pattern is consistency across project types: bathroom renovations, full new builds, second-storey additions, and whole-home renovations all receive the same feedback — on time, on budget, proactive communication, and minimal on-site disruption. Two separate households have returned for a second project, which is the kind of repeat behaviour that's harder to fake than a written review. When speaking with Glenn, it's worth asking directly whether your project fits their current schedule, given the one-job-at-a-time model reviewers praise — that model is a strength when they're available, but worth confirming upfront.

About G&M Building
Glenn and Matt are the two principals running G&M Building — Glenn typically leads the quoting process and client communication side, while Matt is consistently praised for hands-on project management and delivery. Kurt rounds out the core team as a third crew member frequently mentioned for detail-focused work on decks, extensions, and renovations. Although the platform lists them under bathroom renovation, the reviews tell a broader story: this is a small-partnership builder taking on full home builds, second-storey additions, extensions, full-home renovations, and bathroom work — with a concentrated footprint in Caves Beach and surrounding areas. What sets them apart from volume builders is a deliberate one-project-at-a-time approach, noted explicitly by one reviewer, which means your job isn't competing with ten others for crew attention. They've demonstrated the ability to deliver new builds under 12 months and keep extensions on budget even when clients introduced variations mid-project. Homeowners with young families or sensitive circumstances — one reviewer had a newborn during their bathroom reno — specifically called out the team's flexibility and discretion on-site, and multiple reviewers mention that neighbours commented on how little noise and disruption the crew caused.
Best for: full residential new builds in the Caves Beach area, major home extensions or second-storey additions, whole-home renovations requiring a single team from start to finish, and homeowners who want a dedicated crew rather than being juggled across multiple jobs.

What types of projects does G&M Building typically take on?+
Reviews cover a wide range — bathroom renovations, full new home builds, second-storey additions, whole-home renovations, extensions to existing homes, and outdoor deck construction. Despite being listed under bathroom renovation, G&M appears to operate as a general residential builder rather than a trade specialist. If you have a project that spans multiple areas of the home, they're worth contacting — but confirm scope with Glenn at the quoting stage.
Who will actually be on-site managing my project?+
Glenn and Matt are the two business partners — Glenn is frequently named as the person handling quotes and client communication, while Matt is consistently mentioned as the hands-on site presence. Kurt is a third team member mentioned in several reviews for detailed finish work on renovations and decks. Reviewers note that the core team is directly involved rather than handing jobs off to unfamiliar subcontractors.
What do customers say about G&M Building's pricing?+
Multiple reviewers specifically mention that projects came in on budget, and one bathroom client described it as 'an affordable solution without compromising on quality.' One reviewer noted that even when small variations arose mid-project, Glenn absorbed them without issue. Reviews don't mention specific price ranges, so get a written quote and compare — but the budget-adherence feedback is notably consistent across different project types.
How does G&M Building handle communication during a build?+
Communication is one of the most frequently raised positives across the 14 reviews — multiple clients note they were kept informed at every stage without having to chase updates. One client who built during COVID highlighted how Glenn and Matt maintained contact throughout disruptions. If you've had bad experiences with builders going quiet mid-project, this appears to be a genuine differentiator for this team.
Are G&M Building able to work around family life or sensitive home situations?+
One reviewer specifically mentioned having a newborn at home during their bathroom renovation and praised the team for being 'incredibly accommodating and respectful.' A separate reviewer noted that neighbours commented on how quiet the crew was during a six-month renovation. Reviews suggest the team is mindful of operating in occupied homes — worth raising your specific circumstances when you first speak with Glenn so expectations are set from the outset.
