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

This year, we received 96 highqualit­y 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.

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 and Kitchen Renovation Under $100,000) and MENATWORK (Kitchen Renovation Over $100,000).
