Rob Gulley's sustainable Devon home

The Oxford firm Bybridge Construction beat off the best of Britain’s builders from every corner of the UK, all of whom had been nominated by their clients for the first class quality of their craftsmanship and customer service, in a national competition, organised by the Federation of Master Builders (FMB) in association with Nissan. The winning builder receives the Nissan Light Commercial Vehicle of their choice worth up to £20,000.

An exciting and unusual sustainable Devon home made of sheep’s wool, straw bales and lime mortar won builder Rob Gulley the energy saving category and a 20-year old carpentry apprentice Mark Lynch from Glasgow took the title of 2007 Apprentice of the Year.

The winners were presented with their Awards by expert property developer and TV presenter Sarah Beeny, at the Royal Lancaster Hotel in London on Thursday 8th November in front of over 500 guests.
