Renomark Awards praise design and custom builds

- DAVE WILKES Special to National Post

It was an honour to gather with the Greater Toronto Area’s best renovators and custom home builders last week to celebrate the 2024 Renomark Awards. Since 1999, the awards recognize profession­al renovators and custom home builders who are members of the Renomark program for their quality of work, innovation, customer service, and industry leadership.

This year, we received 96 high quality submission­s in 18 categories, including the prestigiou­s Renovator of the Year and Custom Home Builder of the Year categories. These were then evaluated by 15 industry profession­als from across Canada who served as volunteer judges — which was no easy task as the competitio­n was fierce this year.

The top honours in the 2024 Renomark Awards went to BRIKS Design Build Group, which was named Renovator of the Year. Marvel Homes Developmen­t won Best Overall Custom Home, Jodabi Global Inc. won Best Overall Space Renovation, and Norseman Constructi­on won Best Overall Home Renovation. The recipients of these coveted awards set the standard for the industry in customer service, profession­alism and workmanshi­p.

The space renovation categories saw Eurodale Design + Build (Best Basement), Jodabi Global Inc. (Best Washroom & Kitchen Renovation Under $100,000) and MENATWORK (Kitchen

Renovation Over $100,000).

For home renovation­s, winners included Jodabi Global Inc. (Best Renovation — No Addition, Under $300,000), Norseman Constructi­on (Best Renovation — No Addition, Over $300,000), A. Mather Fine Homes Inc. (Best Renovation — Addition, Over $300,000), and Woodsmith Constructi­on Inc. (Best Innovative Renovation). Inspire Homes was the acclaimed winner of Best Universal Design/renovation.

In the condominiu­m categories, Sunnylea Homes Ltd. won Best Condominiu­m Renovation Under $200,000 while Eurodale Design + Build won Best Condominiu­m Renovation Over $200,000.

The award for Best Commercial Renovation went to JY Constructi­on. For custom homes, Pine Glen Homes was awarded with Best Custom Home Over $2 Million and Marvel Homes Developmen­t for Best Custom Home Under $2 Million.
