Top award for Milton Keynes property development
The site manager of Taylor Wimpey’s Kingston Chase development of new homes in Milton Keynes has secured a prestigious award for high standards in housebuilding.
Taylor Wimpey has cause to celebrate after the site manager at one of its developments of property for sale in Milton Keynes scooped a prestigious Pride in the Job Quality Award from the National House-Building Council (NHBC).
Seeing off strong competition from more than 13,000 entries, Dave Glyn-Smith, site manager of the Kingston Chase development of apartments and houses for sale in Milton Keynes, is one of 65 Taylor Wimpey site managers around the UK to receive the honour in recognition of their dedication to maintaining exceptional standards in housebuilding.
Presented following a stringent judging process involving a number of NHBC inspections throughout the year, the Quality Awards also provide homebuyers with the assurance that the winning development delivers top-quality properties to buy in Milton Keynes and excellent customer care.
Dave, who previously won a Quality Award in 2009 for Taylor Wimpey’s Broughton Fields development of houses and apartments for sale in Milton Keynes, says: “Everybody at this site has put a lot of work into achieving the highest standards for our customers at Kingston Chase. It’s great to have your work recognised by your industry and we’re all really pleased to have won this award.”
Peter Gurr, Managing Director of Taylor Wimpey South Midlands, adds: “Our commitment to maintaining the highest levels of quality, service and customer care has ensured that we continue to be an NHBC award-winning housebuilder year after year. Dave’s award is thoroughly deserved and we’ll all be supporting him as he progresses through to the regional heats of the Pride in the Job awards, and hopefully the grand final.”
The only awards scheme that recognises the significant contribution of site managers in new home construction, Pride in the Job has been instrumental in raising the build quality of new homes in the UK for over three decades.
The regional events take place in the autumn, with the Supreme Awards gala final being held in January 2012, the NHBC’s 75th anniversary year.
