Setting The Standard
Benchmark Homes has had many achievements during 2006/2007 but our outstanding achievement as a business has been winning awards in the Registered Master Builders House of the Year. Locally to win the Placemakers Supreme Award and be recognised in the industry as the best residential builder in Mid-Canterbury was an achievement which Master builders strive throughout their careers to attain. Then to have one of our entries not only achieve Gold Status (judged as having the quality of building at least 80% higher than the industry standard), but to be re-judged at a national level and awarded a National Gold Reserve Award simply topped off an outstanding year for Benchmark Homes.
