For many years, Garry and Jann Fergus politely declined any nominations for the prestigious Master Builders awards. It was only in 2008 that Jann decided that the quality of Fergus Builders’ work should be more acknowledged, so we nominated three projects in three diverse categories.

“I was a bit hesitant, but I felt it was time for our efforts to be judged by our industry peers.” Jann confided.

“Imagine our delight when we won all three!”

Since then, we have gone on to win multiple awards each year.
