Master Builders Award Wins!
Perkins Builders are extremely proud to have taken home a number of awards at the Master Builders Association of Western Australia South West Building Excellence Awards held on Friday 3rd September at the Lighthouse Hotel in Bunbury. Each award is testament to the hard work and dedication of our teams, our valued subcontractors and suppliers.
Our Bunbury Senior High School Cafeteria project was awarded Best Education Building $1.5M-$5M. Built on elevated on raking columns to meet the existing quadrangle, the innovative design sees the new Cafeteria overlook the ocean and school oval, featuring a full commercial kitchen and providing a safe place for students to purchase and enjoy their lunch. Additional works included the demolition of the old canteen and redevelopment of the quadrangle.
The Western Power Pinjarra Depot was awarded with Best Office Building $10M-$20M. Designed and constructed by Perkins Builders, the purpose-built facility allows Western Power to provide the same high-quality service, delivery, and response times for Peel customers, while being able to meet future demands for the growing region. The facility improved employee safety through a more operationally efficient design and is powered with renewable energy. Officially opened in November 2020, the depot forms a part of Western Power’s depot modernisation program.
Perkins would like to once again thank our valued clients, subcontractors, suppliers, consultants, and of course the Perkins team; the outstanding result is testament to the collaborative effort of all involved.
