Two Hawke's Bay builders have been named finalists in this year's Registered Master Builders, House of the Year.

Redshaw Homes, Napier and Welch Builders and Construction, Havelock North are two of 84 builders nationwide who have been named in the Gold Reserve National Finalists.

Representing the top entrants in this year's 11 regional competitions held in July and August, the Gold Reserve National Finalists will now be scrutinised by the national judging panel to find out who will win the ultimate accolades of the National Supreme Awards for House of the Year and Renovation of the Year.

Finalists also have the opportunity to win one of the 12 national categories, which include renovations, new homes, builder's own homes and show homes, as well as four Lifestyle Awards.

The results will be announced at a gala dinner in Auckland on Saturday, November 15.

Registered Master Builders acting chief executive Brendon Ward says the competition is a fantastic opportunity to showcase the country's finest builders.

"Building excellence is central to what we do as Registered Master Builders, and the impeccable workmanship and high standard of the homes entered in this year's competition proves that quality is still our highest priority," he said.
