Master Builders winners
Four Canterbury builders stood out at the 2024 Master Builders House of the Year national awards.
A coastal home in Eastbourne, Wellington, built by Planit Construction, won 12 awards, including Supreme House of the Year over $1 million, the Pink Batts Craftsmanship Award, and the New Home over $4 million category.
The Supreme Renovation of the Year award went to Velvin Building’s restoration of a Queenstown holiday retreat, which also scored the Builders Academy Renovation $1–$2 million category award. The judges praised the intricate craftsmanship, which honours its iconic setting against The Remarkables.
Chief Executive Officer of Master Builders, Ankit Sharma, says the competition remains a key platform for celebrating excellence in residential construction.
“Throughout the House of the Year competition, we see the best of what New Zealand’s residential builders have to offer. These projects reflect not only technical excellence but also a dedication to creating spaces that enrich people’s lives.
“We are immensely proud of these builders who deliver exceptional homes for New Zealanders and set new benchmarks for quality and craftsmanship.
“Behind every award-winning project is a team of dedicated professionals committed to building a better New Zealand. It is an honour to celebrate their achievements and highlight the value they bring to our communities,” says Sharma.
