Awards
Awards aren’t really what we’re about, but when the the Master Builders Association and Housing Industry Association (HIA) see the number of happy customers we’ve worked with and awards us the National Display Home of the year and Display Home of the year awards in NSW and the Hunter, we feel pretty chuffed.
It’s a feeling that we can all share in, customers and staff alike, as we simply get on with the job of building people’s dream homes. So thanks to our customers and our people for their faith and hard work for more than 37 years.
