Metro Vancouver Builders, Renovators and Designers Bring Home Ovation Awards

The Homebuilders Association of Vancouver (HAVAN) 2015 Ovation Awards celebrate the best in new home, renovation and design.
 
Monday, April 27, 2015
 
The HAVAN announced the 2015 Ovation Award winners to a sold out crowd of 350 builder, renovator, designer and supplier members at Saturday night’s gala event, presented by FortisBC with Patron Sponsor Homeowner Protection Office, Branch of BC Housing, hosted by Fiona Forbes of Shaw notoriety at the Marriott Pinnacle Hotel in downtown Vancouver.
 
Top winner of the night Naikoon Contracting Ltd. brought home seven awards, including Excellence in Innovation and Sustainability in New Residential Construction and the Grand Ovation Award for Custom Homes Builder of the Year. Following close behind was My House Design/Build Team Ltd. with six awards, including BC Housing’s Award for Excellence in Creating Affordable Housing Choices and the Grand Ovation Award for Renovator of the Year: Large Volume. The new award category “Excellence in Technological Innovation in Residential Construction” went to Graytek Solutions Ltd. with associate Teragon Developments & Construction Inc. for “The Mayfair”– a popular project also winning for Best Renovated Room, Best Outdoor Living Space and the People’s Choice Award.
 
Award entries up 77% over last year reflect the healthy growth and professional work in the residential construction industry across Metro Vancouver,” said Bob de Wit, HAVAN’s CEO.  “The addition of the category for Excellence in Technological Innovation in Residential Construction is an indicator the brand reflects leading-edge industry standards. The Ovation brand is a symbol consumers can trust and should look for when building or renovating their home.”
 
Following Saturday’s award ceremony, the HAVAN’s U40’s hosted the official after-party “O Lounge.” Set to a backdrop of smooth jazz, cool Nutanix ice luge drinks and delectable dessert bars the enthusiastic crowd celebrated the industry and HAVAN’s successes!
 
The Ovations Awards, now in its sixth year, honour excellence in the design and construction of new single and multi-family homes as well as the renovation of existing homes across Metro Vancouver.
