The Roofing Awards has announced the finalists of the eighth annual awards that recognise and highlight the very best in all major roofing disciplines. Winners will be announced in May at a ceremony in central London.
Ray Horwood, CEO of NFRC said: “Once again there are some real quality projects across the wide spectrum of roofing from heritage, through domestic, commercial and industrial.
"The manner that the industry has adapted to sustainability is clearly shown, not only in the green roofing, shingles and solar categories, but again across all the categories.”
Each year the judges and experts are inundated by a large array of projects and this was the year of the extremes; from the largest a 100,000m2 re-roof of the Metro Centre in Gateshead all the way down to a small calf shed in the Snowdonia National Park.
Nicky Rogers, Roofing Awards Adjudicator said: “It was my very great honour to be at the judging of this year’s Roofing Awards. I have been involved with the Awards for four years now and I never fail to be impressed with the outstanding work carried out by UK roofing companies across all disciplines.
"The quality of entries this year made the judges’ decisions extremely difficult, but we can be assured that despite difficult economic times, our industry continues to demonstrate incredibly high levels of professional workmanship. Here’s to 2014.”
Awards will be presented to the winners on Friday 17th May 2013 at the Hilton Metropole in London.
