2025 HAVAN AWARDS FOR HOUSING EXCELLENCE FINALISTS REVEALED

Finalists of the Homebuilders Association Vancouver (HAVAN) Awards for Housing Excellence, presented by FortisBC, were revealed on Thursday, March 6, 2025, at Cosentino, Vancouver.

Winners of the HAVAN Awards for Housing Excellence will be announced at the Gala tomorrow night, Saturday, April 12, 2025, at The Westin Bayshore, Vancouver

Capturing the very best in new-home construction, renovation and design projects, the HAVAN Awards for Housing Excellence places a spotlight on the accomplishments of Metro Vancouver’s homebuilding industry showcasing stunning custom-built homes and whole-home renovations, complete with state-of-the-art automation, luxurious primary suites, and breath-taking kitchens, plus premier multi-family production developments, single-family developments, townhomes, laneways, and multiplex housing solutions. This year’s HAVAN Awards saw 181 builders, renovators, and designers submit 451 entries across 65 categories.

The evolving landscape of housing legislation, particularly focused on multi-unit housing and gentle densification of single-family lots to help address our housing crisis, presents new opportunities for homeowners.  As regulations change, Wendy McNeil, Acting HAVAN CEO, emphasizes the importance of working with experienced professionals.

McNeil shared, “The complexity behind the new-home construction and renovations has significantly intensified in recent years, and the industry delivers remarkable projects balancing building science and regulatory requirements with consumer demands for functionality and aesthetic quality.  It takes a team of skilled professionals to deliver housing today, and the HAVAN Awards program is an excellent resource for homeowners looking to connect with trusted builders, renovators, designers, and industry experts who can bring their projects to life.”

In its 16th year, the premier industry-recognized awards program employs a rigorous judging process, with finalists selected by a peer-reviewed panel of award-winning builders, renovators, and designers nationwide. Finalists and winners proudly display the HAVAN Awards symbol, providing homeowners with a recognizable mark of trusted, local builders and designers for added confidence.

In the news Latest

  • The Truth About Window Screens
    Window screens play a bigger role in home comfort than most people realize. They shape how much fresh air flows inside, how clearly you see outdoors, and how well your home stays protected from insects. Today’s screen technology has improved in every way, giving homeowners better performance and cleaner views than ever before.
  • Natural Light, Wellness and Outdoor Living
    Wellness at home is no longer an add‑on. It’s part of how a space works, feels, and supports daily life. Natural light and fresh air play a major role in that. With the right window and patio door systems, these benefits become part of every room.
  • How to Plan a Window Replacement Project:
    A window replacement project can make your home more comfortable, more energy efficient, and more beautiful,—but the best results come from having a clear plan. Understanding your window replacement timeline, budget, and installation expectations helps you move through the process with confidence. This guide keeps the reading level easy and the steps simple, so you know exactly what to expect when working with a professional window company like Westeck.
  • Custom Window Frame Colours: How Finishes Influence Your Home’s Design
    A custom window frame finish isn’t just a detail it’s an architectural cue that shapes how a home feels. The tone, depth, and sheen of coloured window frames influence contrast, rhythm, and mood throughout the space. A crisp black window frame creates modern precision. A warm taupe or bronze softens edges and blends into natural materials. A muted white becomes a quiet backdrop that allows textures like stone, wood, or metal to stand out.
  • Celebrating the 2026 Georgie Awards: Congratulations to All Finalists
    Every year, the Georgie Awards highlight the best in British Columbia’s homebuilding industry. Hosted by the Canadian Home Builders’ Association of BC (CHBA BC), the awards honour the builders, designers, and trade partners who bring exceptional homes and communities to life.
  • Designing Indoor-Outdoor Continuity with Windows and Patio Openings
    Creating a home that feels open, bright, and connected to nature is easier than many people think. With thoughtful window design, you can blur the line between inside and outside, making your living space feel larger, and more inviting. At Westeck Windows, this idea is at the heart of what we build. The right window systems don’t just frame a view, they shape the way you live.
  • 2026 Residential Window Design Trends
    Residential design requirements are changing fast. Custom Home Builders want brighter spaces, better energy savings, and cleaner, modern lines for homeowners. As a result, windows now carry more responsibility than ever. They must look good, perform well, and support healthier, more efficient homes.
  • Condensation on Windows: Your Windows Are Still Performing.
    Condensation on windows is a common reaction to warm, moist air on a cold surface. Condensation on window glass does not mean the window is failing, but that the window is working. The idea of condensation on the windowpane means the window failing is a myth. In most cases, condensation has nothing to do with window quality. Instead, it is a sign of what is happening inside the house.
  • A Guide for Choosing Energy-Efficient Doors
