Following a decade out of the spotlight and away from the award circuit, Matthew Brady Builders made a huge come-back at the Mackay and Whitsunday Master Builders Awards last week.
Taking out the best individual home in the $350,000 - $450,000 price bracket for his Mount Martin four-bedroom low block house, business owner Mr Brady said it was a great result after one of the hardest years in business he’s ever had.
“It’s been a hectic year with price rises and it took a bit to get through it,” he said.
“The Mount Martin house came out really well and we got such a good response from the tradies, I thought I’d enter this year.”
Usually involved with renovation work, Mr Brady only takes on a small number of new builds, choosing to work on projects that resonate with him.
For the award-winning house, he worked closely with the owners of the property to create a vision and then completed the plan with Whitsunday Drafting.
“I don’t do many new homes, but when I do, I like things to be constructed the way they should be, they are built for longevity, I don’t succumb to the quick and easy,” said Mr Brady.
“It’s got to have a bit of soul!”
“Thank you to all the contractors who were part of the job – I consider a lot of them my friends and we made it a personal thing.
