ShareBrewers were proud sponsors of the 33rd Premier Trophy Awards which proved to be a fantastic event celebrating the immense talent within the painting and decorating industry, including some of our incredibly talented customers. The awards received over 88 entries across the industry which were shortlisted to 54 jobs and visited by the judges. The judges were warmly welcomed by a wide range of talented tradespeople across the UK and included broad range of sites: bridges, flats, houses, churches, castles, theatres and even a lighthouse!
CEO Simon Brewer attended the event and was delighted to present the awards to the winners. Community is at the heart of everything we do, so it was a true pleasure to be able to attend such a prestigious event within the industry.
PDA Apprentice of the Year 2022:
The Apprentice of the Year 2022 received the highest number of entries that had ever been seen resulting in a fantastic competition and some well worthy winners! Brewers were delighted to supply competitors with colours from the Albany Colour Collection adding a level of striking vibrancy to the ‘test piece’, a complex design that put students’ skills in the spotlight. Harry Davies and Nicole Smith took the titles of Junior and Senior Winners, with Katie White, Sophie Bennett, Jade Oakes and Archie Brook as Joint Junior and Senior Runners Up.
Take a look at some of the Brewers customers who were awarded an accolade at the event below…
The Decorative Category
Ben McHugh, Highly Commended
This is a refurbishment of a house from 1908 with an extension, displaying high quality and high praise from the client. Ben used a range of techniques including staining, varnishing, wallpapering, and painting as well as some colour scheme consultancy!
The Highly Decorative Category
P A Schofield Ltd, Very Highly Commended
Lyric Theatre in Shaftsbury Avenue required a lot of skill involving wallpapering, gold liquid metal painting, French Polishing, colour matching and signwriting – to name just a few! The standard of excellence can be clearly seen in the beautiful and historic venue.
The Small Contractor Category
Hugh Irwin Specialist Decorators Ltd, Very Highly Commended
The large, gated property required a lot of redecoration work after it suffered water damage. Gold leaf was applied as a highly decorative element with French Polishing and staining carried out as well. An exceptional finish and a complete joy for the judges to visit!
The Small Contractor Category
H J Lake Painting Contractors, Commended
The listed building had a lot of transformations over the years which presented the challenge of varying substrates. Overcoming the challenge, both the judges and client said the job was award worthy.
The Residential Category
James Bordessa Painting and Decorating Services, Commended
James is a sole trader and has carried out a high-class piece of work whilst being mindful of budget and time constraints. The work involved the redecoration of the bedroom, bathroom and refurbishing built-in wardrobes to a very high standard.
The Commercial Category
Trident Maintenance Services Ltd, Very Highly Commended
The ancient military fort is now a museum and required some restoration work. The professional work that was carried out involved extensive repairs before painting could commence.
The New Build Category
Rouf Homes Ltd, Commended
A great project in the works as a new apartment block. The overall finish looked good with excellent features and artistically written paint signage on the exterior.
A huge congratulations to all the winners of The Premier Trophy Awards and a big thank you to our customers who we are immensely proud of!
Worthy Winners!
