You can't put a price on the positive publicity generated by our two award- winning builders Alan Simpson and Tony Gordon.
It delivers the message Merimbula is equipped with the best when it comes to building a quality home.
The two men impressed their peers with their skilled workmanship and attention to detail. They stared down the opposition to snare the awards.
Our built environment for the most part is mundane and suburban. It is at odds with the area's coastal character, as it does not blend easily with the surrounds.
However when there are builders with the skills to meet the challenges of design and produce an outstanding result, mediocrity is no excuse.
Congrats to Alan and Tony on a job well done and now the challenge is for other builders to emulate their success.
