SR Timber scores top marks for quality in NHBC awards
Renowned for its quality products and dedication to raising standards of graded roofing
battens in the UK, SR Timber is an avid supporter of the prestigious NHBC Pride in the Job
Awards that have been instrumental in driving the quality of new homes over the last 34
years.
Representing the highest industry accolade a building site manager can receive, competition
is fierce and this year’s Quality Awards and Single Home Commendations are no exception,
with winners having been shortlisted from over 15,000 site managers across the UK.
Not only does the award represent success for the site manager and individual building
company, associated trades receive a reputational boost too. Indeed, one of SR Timber’s
key customers - Walsall-based SM Roofing Contracts Ltd - can once again take pride from
being linked with 15 out of the 41 successful sites in the West region with each site featuring
quality ‘Premium Gold’ graded roofing battens. The successful sites include leading house
builders such as Barratt and David Wilson, Bellway West Midlands, Persimmon Homes
South, Taylor Wimpey Midlands and Taylor Wimpey West.
All Pride in the Job winners have one thing in common - meticulous and consistent attention
to detail. To win, they must score highly for the quality of workmanship on their site at every
stage of the build. Equally, they must also demonstrate excellent leadership, technical
expertise, robust health and safety processes. In the case of SM Roofing Contracts Ltd, it is
their expertise, dedication, passion, technical ability and workmanship that have consistently
been acknowledged via these awards, as well as their use of premium products.

Trading Director at SR Timber, Shaun Revill, comments: “We are delighted to be associated
with these awards and to have our market-leading roofing battens continuously specified by
SM Roofing Contracts Ltd. Ultimately, these awards aim to raise standards in house building
and as homeowners continue to benefit from higher quality homes year on year, they are
proof that quality in products and workmanship score top marks time and time again.”
Adam Pearson, Group Commercial Director of SM Roofing Contracts Ltd, says: “We are
delighted to be once again associated with these awards. We have only ever specified SR
Timber Gold battens due to their quality and reliability and we will continue to do so.
“One of the key benefits of working with SR Timber’s product is that they manage the
journey of the batten from the forest to the roof. Not only does this assure quality of product,
it guarantees traceability and consistency of supply,” adds Adam.
All individual winners in this year’s Quality Award and Single Home Commendation awards
will now go on to compete in the next round of the NHBC’s competition to see who will be
awarded Seals of Excellence and/or win the Regional Award titles. These will be announced
in Autumn this year.
