The Master Builders Western Australia Building Excellence Awards is the preeminent event in the building and construction industry in Western Australia.

The Master Builders Western Australia Building Excellence Awards celebrate the entire scope of the building and construction industry across Western Australia in one event; from single-home renovation projects all the way through to large-scale civil construction works, and from the Perth metropolitan area to the far reaches of our great state.

Launched in its current iteration in 2025, the combined Building Excellence Awards program replaces the previous Housing Excellence and Excellence in Construction Awards programs.

The purpose of the Master Builders Western Australia Building Excellence Awards is two-fold:

1. To showcase the incredible projects Master Builders Western Australia’s members deliver each year across the
   residential, commercial and civil construction sectors; and
2. To reward members who display a commitment to building excellence and a determination to maintain the highest of professional standards.
