the Housing excellence Awards are unique in that they recognise the best builders based on their construction excellence and quality of workmanship. A team of 25 experienced judges inspect nominations in a variety of categories which include individually designed contract homes, display homes, renovations and transportable homes. mr Cooper said the 2013 awards were highly contested, with a record number of entrants. the judging panel reported that the quality of entries was high and that the top end houses, in the over $1million categories, exhibited a particularly high standard of construction. Yet again the awards proved their popularity with a record crowd enthusiastically partying along to Boys in the Band and Proof until well after midnight.
