Battle-Based Business Parker & Son Finalists in National Construction Awards

Parker & Son Construction Company is delighted to announce that it has been shortlisted for Best Building Contractor (up to £10m turnover) in the National Federation of Builders (NFB) Construction Awards of Excellence 2026. 

Last year the company was a finalist in the same category; while they didn’t win they did receive a Highly Commended award. However, this year the team is hoping to return home with a trophy in hand. 

The Best Building Contractor award recognises outstanding performance and achievements. Companies are chosen for their consistently high standards, high-quality craftsmanship and attention to detail. 

James Parker, Managing Director of Parker & Son, said: “We’re incredibly proud to once again be recognised as finalists in the NFB’s Construction Awards of Excellence. Reaching the final for a second consecutive year is a testament to the hard work, dedication and expertise of our entire team who consistently deliver outstanding projects for our clients.

“Last year, we were honoured to receive Highly Commended in the Best Building Contractor category which was a fantastic achievement and reflected the high standards we strive for every day. This year, we’re naturally hoping to go one step further and bring home the award. Whatever the outcome, being recognised among the UK’s leading contractors is something we’re extremely proud of and we’d like to thank our clients, partners and everyone involved in helping us reach this stage.”

The Construction Awards of Excellence are highly prized awards, recognising individual and team excellence. The awards are open to all construction and building companies within the UK and are judged entirely independently by an expert panel.

The awards are being held at The Burlington Hotel in Birmingham on November 12th. The black-tie evening not only wants to recognise the best in the industry, but also create an environment for networking and sharing in each other’s success. Tickets for these prestigious awards can be purchased here.
