The national awards covers a range of categories from ‘Best Driveway Transformation’ to ‘Best Use of Marshalls Fairstone’, with this year’s awards attracting over 800 project submissions from its 1,000 strong associated Member companies from all around the UK.
The day culminated in the presentation of a brand new Toyota Hilux Double Cab to ‘Marshalls Register Contractor of the Year 2011’.

The quality, design and use of materials on this project, as with all his projects, were simply superb. Darren and his team are an excellent example of the quality of work and professionalism you can expect from a Marshalls Register Member.”
David concluded: “I would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate all the other award winning Register Members, the standard this year was exceptionally high with a large number of outstanding entries, well done everyone and keep up the good work!”
