Home Builder Developer - Interior Renovation and Design

Hatfield, PA (PRWEB) February 12, 2015

Just a few days after learning they had swept the bathroom remodeling categories for the 2015 Contractor of the Year (CotY) awards at the local level, Masters Design Build has been honored with three regional CotY awards for the same projects. They are the only contractor in the Northeast region to win three CotY awards this year.

Winners of the local CotYs were announced at the annual Evening of Excellence Awards Gala on Friday, January 30th at the William Penn Inn in Gwynedd, Pa. The event was hosted by the Bucks-Mont chapter of the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI). Masters Design Build is the only contractor to win three CotYs within the Bucks-Mont chaptertaking the honors in all three bathroom categories: $25k to $50k, $50k to $75k, and $75k to $100k.

This marks the fifth year that Masters Design Build has taken home CotY awards, demonstrating their consistency in producing award-winning work. This is also the second time Masters Design Build has taken home three CotY awards. In 2012, they received recognition for Addition Under $100K, Kitchen from $40K to $80K and Kitchen from $80K to $120K.

While they may go by the same name, the local and regional CotY awards are two separate competitions, judged by different panels of industry experts. Local CotY awards are presented by local NARI chapters, while the regional awards are conducted under the supervision NARIs national office in Des Plaines, IL. The national organization separates their chapters across the United States into seven regions. CotY Award winners in each region then compete against winners from other regions to determine a national winner in each category. Winners of the national CotY awards will be announced at NARIs Evening of Excellence on Friday, April 17th in Fort Lauderdale, FL.

As expected, Brian and Cheryl Martin, owners of Masters Design Build, are thrilled with the outcomes of both awards programs. It is incredibly gratifying to have our work recognized at both the local and regional level. None of this would be possible without the support of a talented team of craftsmen, and the faith of our wonderful clients who entrusted us with remodeling their homes.

Although the Hatfield-based contractor performs a wide range of remodeling services from kitchens to entire home renovations, each of their winning projects this year were master bathroom remodels. In each project, the team overcame unique challenges in order to successfully renovate the spaces. In particular, the $75k-$100k category presented serious structural challenges from the beginning. The English Tudor style home had been built in the 1920s, and lacked certain structural support necessary to keep the home in regulatory compliance. The bathroom had been remodeled previously, but the structural problems were not addressed and the floor sagged significantly. Masters Design Build had to correct these issues before creating the rustically beautiful space the homeowners now enjoy.

The Master's Design Build Group is an award-winning, full-service design-build remodeler and general contractor located in Hatfield, PA. on the border of Bucks and Montgomery County. With more than 25 years of experience in the construction field, Martin and his team pride themselves on a comprehensive understanding of their craft, and strive to build a foundation of trust with their clients.

ST. JOHN the Baptist Church, which was built by Franciscan missionaries during the Spanish colonial period, in Camalig, Albay, has been declared a historical landmark by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines. MICHAEL B. JAUCIAN

Imelda Moraleda has bound her life and faith to the massive stone church built by Franciscan missionaries during the Spanish colonial period in the 1800s in Camalig town in Albay province.

The church is indeed a very old church that provided us refuge during the war, says Moraleda, 84, who goes regularly to the St. John the Baptist Church, which was recently declared a historical landmark by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines (NHCP).

Describing the place of worship as God-given, she recalls that during World War II in 1942-1945, it sheltered town residents during the Japanese occupation and when the Americans came to liberate the country.

She was a teenager then during the war years and was asked to play the piano during the daily Mass, while Japanese soldiers watched the parishioners every movement. There was no way to escape the garrison of the Japanese soldiers, which was just located at the back of St. John the Baptist Church, she remembers.

The NHCPs board of commissioners approved the declaration of the church as a historical landmark after noting its significant contributions to Camaligs history.

The marker is very educational on the part of the tourists as it will give them an idea of how Christianity started, said the agencys executive director, Ludovico Badoy, who attended the unveiling ceremony on Dec. 14, 2014.

The Franciscan missionaries administered the church for over 400 years, from 1579-1983, according to the marker. Originally, it existed as a structure of wood and nipa from 1579 to 1580.

The second church was made from stone by prisoners in 1605. It was, however, destroyed by successive eruptions of Mayon Volcano from 1766 to 1814.
