A month ago, the Canadian Home Builders’ Association announced the finalists for the 2023 CHBA National Awards for Housing Excellence. The 2023 competition received nearly 800 entries from rural areas and large cities, and from small family-run businesses and larger developers. Categories feature a range of awards for many different types of projects, including entry-level homes, attached and detached homes, renovations at different price points, net zero homes and renovations, new and growing communities, and a variety of residential marketing efforts.
RenoMark members lead the way within the 12 renovation categories in this year’s program. A staggering 84% of the renovation finalists were RenoMark members!
So, without further delay, below are all the finalists in the renovation categories in the 2023 CHBA National Awards for Housing Excellence. We’ve included images for projects done by RenoMark renovators!
