How do I nominate my site?

Nominations are based on our scoring system, so you don't have to do anything. Our Risk Management Surveyors score a site during each inspection visit. Scores are then verified by our judges and sites that consistently achieve a high average score over a 6 month period are nominated and recognised each month with a Site Recognition Award.

All winning sites throughout the year are reviewed and further shortlisted by our judges. Shortlisted site winners are announced the following year and presented with The Bricks prestigious annual award trophy.

How is a site scored?

LABC Warranty Risk Management Surveyors are responsible for scoring a development. Scores obtained during every site inspection visit are based on the following categories:

- General Cooperation
- Health & Safety
- Site Tidiness
- Standard of Site Management*
- Quality of Workmanship*

* A higher score in these areas will have a greater impact on the average score.

“You cannot compare The Bricks to any other industry awards! It is quite simply the most glamorous, surprise filled, epicurean delight from start to finish. The attention to detail is second to none and you are thoroughly spoilt and indulged from the moment you step into the venue till the moment you leave.”

“It was probably the best one I have been to, (and I have been to a few) and we were all really impressed at the novelty of the whole event and the effort put in to the day by all.”

“We had an amazing afternoon, in a stunning venue, surrounded by charming hosts. The food was sumptuous, with very attentive waiters and the entertainment was first class. We were extremely humbled to win The Bricks and found the day to be an experience we will always remember.”

“To be nominated for The Bricks 2017 reinforces our commitment to build quality homes for our customers. The Bricks awards event is that bit more personal. LABC Warranty not only allows us to forge better relations with leading companies within the industry but encourages us to build a fantastic end product.”

“An extremely enjoyable day with no expense spared. Everything from the unique invitation, venue, drinks and canapé reception to the meal, entertainment and company was fantastic. Not to mention that this was all rounded off with our first major award, which we are very proud of.”

“We had a great day at the awards and the press release on our company website has made all involved with the Lancaster Moor development even more proud to receive this award from a quality standard accessing body such as LABC.”

“It really was a great event that was cleverly themed with super entertainment and hospitality. The venue was quite breath-taking and worked so well with the theme - will live long in the memory.”

“The event was certainly above and beyond the usual construction industry awards and was out of the box, it really did exceed my expectation for the event”

“It was an amazing day which we all thoroughly enjoyed and were very proud to be shortlisted for this very special event."
