The Cornerstones

Some 98 awards in 51 categories were handed out last month to builders, remodelers, designers and other construction industry professionals during the annual Cornerstone Awards ceremony.
The two top awards for Best in Show went to John Stanek Custom Builders Inc. of Peterborough for a residential project in Peterborough, and Christopher Cahill Construction Inc. of Nashua for a commercial project.
Produced by the Home Builders & Remodelers Association of New Hampshire’s Sales & Marketing Council and held at the Radisson Hotel Center of New Hampshire in Manchester, the awards recognize excellence in all areas of the building industry, including design, remodeling, new construction, landscaping and special features.
HBRANH members nominated 179 projects, which were judged by their peers from the Home Builders & Remodelers Association of Northern Vermont.
Over 350 builders, remodelers, designers and industry professionals attended the gala affair.
Another highlight of the annual Cornerstone Awards is the “Member of the Year” honors, presented to recognize the efforts of members in the building industry and the association. Named Members of the Year in various categories were: John Langill, Cherry Hill Homes, Pembroke, Builder of Year; David Clarenbach, Foremost Builders LLC, New London, Remodeler of the Year; and Dave Chisholm, Builders Insulation Co. Inc., Manchester, Associate of the Year.
Special recognition was given to Dianne Beaton of Secondwind Water Systems Inc. for her volunteer efforts at the local, state and national levels, promoting education and taking many leadership roles. She was recently featured on the cover of National Association of Home Builders’ Building Women magazine.
Sponsors of the awards included RIVCO, First Horizon Home Loans, New Hampshire Business Review, New Hampshire Magazine, Plain & Fancy Custom Cabinetry, Dobles Chevrolet, Flooring Associates, Insty-Prints/Bedford, Cobb Hill Builders, JobsInNH.com, The Granite Group, Chick Beaulieu Inc., Dream Kitchens Inc., Secondwind Water Systems and The Benson Companies and Kitchen Craft.
