Again this year we have
entered the HIA Professional Builder Awards. These awards are based
on each company’s financial management, business management,
customer service, marketing, training, innovation, technical excellence,
Occupational Health and Safety and systems management.
In past
years we have been successful in winning the NSW Award in our category
(Small/Medium Builder of the Year) each year since its inception
in 2003. We were also very proud to win the Australian Small/Medium
Builder of the Year in 2004.
The current
competition sees the NSW award winners announced in November 2006
and the Australian winners announced in May 2007.

Basix’s
Requirements:
“Basix”
is the Building Sustainability Index. It is a NSW government requirement
that affects all new houses, villas, townhouses or units within
NSW. It assesses each new design against specific water and energy
reduction targets. It also assesses the thermal comfort of each
dwelling to meet requirements. A Basix Certificate must be obtained
before any plans can be lodged with our local council for approval
As at
July 1st 2006, it has seen the improvement percentages required
increase from a 25% saving to a 35% saving on energy and thermal
comfort. Water saving still remains at 30% for this area.
Information
used in the assessment for a Basix Certificate include site information,
house size, building materials, fittings for hot water, and cooling
and heating loads.
The implications
of this may mean the issues such as the following may need to be
considered:-
Gas, solar hot water or heat pump system
low energy lighting
water efficient shower heads and tap fixtures
use of eaves, shading, and insulation
performance glass or double glazing
rainwater tanks and pumps
water saving toilet systems
grey water systems
solar orientation
cross ventilation
ceiling fans, evaporative coolers or high efficiency air conditioning
