A huge congratulations to Taylor Made Landscapes, who are celebrating awards success after winning Brett Landscaping’s 2022 BAI Award for National Contractor of the Year.
The BAI awards are a significant event for Brett, as it gives us the opportunity to celebrate our approved installers and the hard work and craftsmanship that they contribute to projects daily.
It is extremely valuable to see Brett products put to work within impressive and varied projects. This provides us with the feedback that we need to keep pushing in the right direction, supplying products that our installers love to work with.
This year’s awards saw Taylor Made Landscapes, based in Stubbington, Hampshire, come out on top as National Contractor of the Year. We also introduced two new categories for the 2022 line up, which included ‘Best Permeable Paving Project’ which went to Bellamay Paving and Landscaping Ltd, and ‘Rising Star of the Year’ which went to Brad Appleby of English Landscapes.
For the Rising Star, we welcomed Brett Approved Installers to nominate people within their businesses who go above and beyond, in a bid to recognise emerging talent within the industry. This allowed us to show recognition to apprentices and labourers, who do the hard yards to get the work done.
Other winners included Essex Elite Paving for Best Creative Design, ALS Landscaping for Biggest Driveway Transformation and Leicestershire Paving Company for Newcomer of the Year.
The awards are judged on a raft of criteria including dedication, workmanship, excellence, innovation, creativity, and technical difficulty.
Danielle Thorpe, Head of Marketing and BAI Scheme Manager at Brett Landscaping, said:
“Every year at Brett we look forward to hosting an incredible Awards Ceremony to recognise the highest standards of professionalism in driveway and patio projects, installed by our team of Brett Approved Installers.
The standard of this year’s award entries was incredible and truly showcased the talent, attention to detail, and innovation our Brett Approved Installers strive towards on all of their installations. As a company, we are beyond proud of our network of installers and the value they bring to the Brett brand.”
As well as training and support and merchandising material, Brett Approved Installers benefit from one-to-one account management to support their business growth. They are also provided with the latest expert advice from Brett Technical Support as well as being able to offer extended guarantees to customers.
