LABC Site Recognition Award 2023

A NEW development in Swinton, South Yorkshire has been named among a shortlist of sites in England and Wales to win an award for high standards of construction and site management.

Harrop Mews, being built by Ben Bailey Homes, has been awarded The Bricks Site Recognition Award by LABC Warranty, for its standards of workmanship and overall management of the site, including health and safety matters and general tidiness.

The Bricks Site Recognition Award winners are chosen every month and are then further shortlisted at the end of the year, where only the best of those sites will be rewarded with The Bricks annual award trophy, one of the construction industry’s most prestigious awards given to outstanding sites from England and Wales.

LABC Warranty is one of the largest providers of structural warranties in the UK. Working in partnership with Local Authority Building Control (LABC), its combined team of more than 3,700 surveyors work with house builders, contractors and housing associations.

Sites are scored by LABC Warranty risk management surveyors during their inspection visits, which take place regularly through construction.

Those sites that score consistently high for general co-operation with inspectors, health and safety, site tidiness, standard of site management and standard of workmanship are nominated for a Site Recognition Award.

Harrop Mews is a development of 49 two, three and four bedroom homes. Each home will feature a number of fantastic fixtures & fittings as standard, including EV charging points, carpeted and tiled floors throughout, turfed and fenced gardens, fibre broadband, contemporary kitchen with integrated appliances including dishwasher.

Jon Bailey, Sales Director from Ben Bailey Homes said: “We’re delighted to receive The Bricks Site Recognition Award from LABC Warranty. I’m especially pleased for our staff working on the site as this reward is a recognition of their hard work, professionalism and expertise.”

Sarah Sheppard, Technical Director at LABC Warranty, said: “It takes skill, commitment and a dedication to quality of construction for a site to receive The Bricks Site Recognition Award. Nothing pleases my team and I more than to see developments meet and maintain such high standards.”
