2011 Awards of Excellence in Housing Finalists
Canadian Home Builders’ Association—Alberta (CHBA-Alberta) recently announced the finalists for the 2011 Alberta Awards of Excellence in Housing. From the record-breaking 283 entries, eight finalists from CHBA-Lethbridge Region were announced including Ashcroft Master Builder, Avonlea Master Builder, Bezooyen Contracting, Greer Home Builders, and FOX Renovations.
The Alberta Awards of Excellence in Housing honour the top builders and renovators from across the province and are awarded September 16 at special awards ceremony. In regards to the Awards, CHBA-Alberta CEO Jim Rivait said, “CHBA-Alberta was thrilled to see such an overwhelming number of entries this year. We’ve shattered records which indicate there are many innovative and creative design options available to consumers. The competition has never been so tight. We applaud everyone for their hard work entering this year’s contest and we are excited to recognize this year’s finalists”.
Lethbridge continues to lead the way in green building with two finalists in the Green Vision category, Bezooyen Contracting and Greer Homes. “It's an honour to have a Greer project selected as a finalist and I am really glad to see our city so well recognized in this category. Lethbridge has the highest number BuiltGreen homes per capita and I think that is reflected in the awards” states Jean Greer McCarthy of Greer Homes. The Green Vision criteria include EnerGuide Rating and an Environmental Checklist.
Ashcroft Master Builder and Avonlea Master Builder are finalists in two single family categories each, and Bezooyen Contracting is finalist in one single family category. Stephen Amonson of Ashcroft Master Builder says about the announcement, “we are so excited to be recognized two years in a row for our new home designs”.
Another exciting announcement for CHBA-Lethbridge Region is the announcement of FOX Renovations as a finalist for the Residential Construction Industry’s Safety Leadership Award. “Safety is a top priority of CHBA-Lethbridge and to have one our members announced as a finalist for the Safety Leadership Award is very exciting” says Gerrit Bezooyen, CHBA-Lethbridge Region President. Terry Fox, of FOX Renovation explains staff members commit to doing the best work and doing it in a safe matter and this announcement is “a thrill for all of us here at FOX Renovation. Our commitment has always been that of making our company one of the very best in the renovation industry and that same level of commitment has also held true to the company’s inner workings. To have these efforts recognized outside of our immediate company has been an unexpected and pleasant bonus.”
CHBA-Lethbridge Region would like to congratulate Ashcroft Master Builder, Avonlea Master Builder, Bezooyen Contracting, Greer Home Builders, and FOX Renovations on this accomplishment and wish them good luck at the September Awards Ceremony in Jasper.
