Six of Redrow’s Site Managers in South Wales have been named as the best in the house building industry by the National House Building Council (NHBC).

The Pride in the Job 2023 Quality Award winners include Site Managers Matthew Coyle of Parc y Coleg, Adrian Stone of Plas Ty Draw, Craig Thomas of Mill Meadows and Edward Piggford of Churchlands, along with Elliot Kingdon of Cwrt Sant Ioan and Huw Thomas of Maes yr Haf at Plasdwr, Cardiff’s garden city for the 21st Century.

Running for 43 years, the accolade which is awarded by NHBC as the UK’s leading new homes warranty and insurance provider, is the most highly regarded in the house-building industry and a prestigious benchmark for exceptional site managers. With only 444 winners selected out of over 8,000 entrants across the UK, the recipients are among the country’s best house builders.

Judging for the awards is rigorous, with the current competition beginning in July last year. Each site manager is assessed across six key areas: consistency, attention to detail, leadership, interpretation of drawings and specifications, technical expertise and health and safety. Thousands of site inspections and meticulous scoring and verifications have taken place to decide the winning site managers.

Tim Sexton is Construction Director for Redrow. He said:

“These prestigious awards celebrate the very best UK site managers and their commitment to raising standards in house building.

“All of our winners should feel proud to have received this top house building award; it’s a major achievement to have six winners in one region of the UK and is a reflection of how our teams go the extra mile to deliver dream homes of the highest quality for our customers who value a better way to live.”

The six Quality Award winners will now go on to compete for Seal of Excellence and Regional Awards in the autumn, with the national Supreme Award winners unveiled in January 2024.
