From the committees

Real feedback from real complexes

Notes pulled straight from body corporate chairs, committee members and residents across Brisbane.

Woolloowin · Committee Chair

"Their work is always thorough, of a high standard, and their attendance on site diligent and friendly. It has been a pleasure to work with Garth."

Diana
Toowong · Committee Member

"They have transformed our unit block. Weed control was a major issue and the garden was very overgrown — the Committee is extremely happy with the transformation."

Lizzy
Auchenflower · Absentee Owner

"As an absentee owner I was finding it difficult to supervise contractors. Now I feel confident our gardens and common areas are cared for to a high standard."

Sarah
Teneriffe · Committee Chairman

"I'm really impressed with how much you were able to do already and how much better it's looking. Very much looking forward to a long relationship."

Jesse
Taringa · Committee Chairperson

"The communication and enthusiasm of Garth and his team has enabled this complex to become a welcoming environment once again."

Shannon
Clontarf · Committee Chairman

"I'm glad to finally have found a contractor that is passionate about what they do, and is willing to take some ownership."

Julie
New Farm · Committee Chairman

"There was universal praise at the AGM for the work Common Ground has done at our complex. The results speak for themselves — just brilliant."

Paul
Paddington · Committee Chairperson

"It was a delight walking through the garage this morning, plus seeing the grass back at a good length. Excellent work!"

About

A small, hands-on team your committee can actually reach

Common Ground Maintenance is a Brisbane-based company providing high quality, sensibly priced cleaning and property maintenance packages for body corporate, workplace and home properties.

We started in October 2010 on a simple model: communicate clearly, let the market dictate our services, and run great systems. That model is still evolving today — but the core of it hasn't changed. We show up, we report what we see, and we treat your common areas like they're worth looking after.

We act as an extra set of eyes and ears for your committee, flagging maintenance and security issues before they become expensive problems, and coordinating trusted tradespeople when work falls outside our scope.

Garth

Founder & Owner

After 10 years managing cleaning and catering operations for a large international airline, Garth started Common Ground in October 2010. He still visits client sites personally and is usually the first call when something needs attention.

Stacey

Admin & Payroll

Keeping invoicing, payroll and the admin side of the business running smoothly since 2017 — so committees get a clean, predictable monthly invoice every time.
