Why do we stop for R U OK? day 👷🏼🦺💬 In the construction industry, we all know the pressures of tight deadlines and high-stress environments. These can take a toll, leaving some of us feeling disconnected at times. But sometimes, a simple, genuine conversation can make all the difference for someone who’s struggling. It’s something we can all do to help a mate or colleague feel supported and seen. If taking just five minutes today sparks even one more conversation, that’s enough. Because one conversation can save a life.

Last Friday, we had the privilege of attending the Queensland Building Women Awards with the Housing Industry Association (HIA). As proud members of HIA for 10 years, we’re committed to supporting their efforts in driving positive change across the industry.

A highlight of the event was our own Merryl Nevison presenting the Business Development Professional award to valued customer, Melissa Wolfe from Plantation Homes, as award partners. “Without the contribution of skilled and dedicated women, the home building industry simply does not function, and our winners this year clearly demonstrate the high value that women are bringing to the table,” Mr. Roberts, HIA Executive Director - Queensland. Congratulations to Melissa and all the incredible winners who are helping to shape the future of construction!
