The country’s best builders in residential, commercial and civil construction were celebrated at the Master Builders National Excellence in Building and Construction Awards 2022.
Congratulations to the seven Queensland members who took home a golden gong at the prestigious awards.
Hampton Homes walked away with the National Renovations/Extensions Award over $2 million for the stylish ‘Welsby New Farm’ in Brisbane.
Two Toowoomba projects came out tops with Gordon Bourke Constructions winning the National Contract Home under $350,000 for 'Bianca' and George Built Constructions’ ‘Mackenzie’ receiving the Master Builders Insurance Brokers National Contract Home – $350,000 to $500,000 Award.

In the Construction category Multiplex Constructions bagged the Cbus National High Rise Apartment Building award for the luxurious The One Residences in Brisbane.
Hutchinson Builders cemented their status as reputable builders, picking up the National Fit-out Award over $10 million for the West Village Retail Precinct.
Master Builders Queensland CEO Paul Bidwell applauded the winners.
“The building and construction industry has demonstrated that despite some challenging conditions, it continues to provide the highest quality outcomes for clients around the country,” he said.
Riding on the wave of success, Master Builders Queensland has launched its 2023 Housing & Construction Awards program early.
Builders wanting to be in the running for a national award next year, have time to get a head start on their Queensland entries.
Entries are now open and this year there are three new categories.
The new categories include three commercial fit-out categories for projects up to $5 million, from $5 million up to $10 million and over $10 million.
Now in its 37th year, the Awards are a highlight on the building and construction calendar with hundreds of entries from across the state vying for top spot.
“We can’t wait to show off exceptional projects, skilled workmanship and passion in the building and construction industry.
“Whether it’s a beachside apartment, hillside cottage, contemporary community centre or cutting-edge medical facility – we want to see the innovative builds from 2022,” Mr Bidwell said.
The awards honour not just houses and projects but the people that make the industry so special.
Three of the trophies recognise an apprentice, emerging builder and women doing great things that deserves recognition.
Other sought-after accolades include the President’s Award, Project of the Year and House of the Year.
All award submissions are reviewed by independent judges who consider criteria including quality, degree of construction difficulty, external appeal, siting and aspect along with amenities and aesthetics.
Regional winners go on to be judged at a state level and winners from there are shortlisted for the National Excellence in Building and Construction Awards.
