We are delighted that three of our Sussex Building Control nominees won their Award categories and one of our partners was recognised as highly commended in the South East Local Authority Building Control (LABC) Building Excellence Awards for 2023.
The awards are the largest business to business awards in the building control sector and recognise quality, innovation, craftsmanship and compliance in all types of building construction projects.
From our Sussex Building Control team, Trainee Building Control Surveyor Ross McCartney scooped LABC Newcomer of the Year.
Collaborating with Sussex Building Control, DK Planning and Design won Best Residential and Small Commercial Designer and K Black & Sons (KBS) won Best Residential and Small Commercial Builder.
Sussex Building Control also received a highly commended accolade for Best Partnership with a Local Authority, working with DMA Building Designs.
Cllr John Milne, Horsham District Council Cabinet Member for Planning and Infrastructure commented:
I am delighted that Sussex Building Control have again been successful at these awards. The recognition reflects the excellence of the team, right from supporting and mentoring the newest members to demonstrating the highest levels of expertise and dedication to ensure that even the most complex of projects run smoothly for all partners and clients.
“I wish our winners the very best of luck in the national finals.”
