REGINA -- A Regina home building company has been recognized as one of the best of its kind in Canada.

The company won for two different homes. A ‘production’ award for a detached home located in The Creeks Neighbourhood, and a ‘custom’ award for a home on Quinn Drive that backs into Wascana Park.

“Some of the entries from Vancouver you see - they’re on the ocean with the beautiful views and it’s kind of hard to compete with that,” Colin Chorneyko, president of Munro Homes, said. “But here in Regina, if you build a good quality product, you can compete.”

“This award is really what we work our entire year for." 

Munro Homes said it’s extremely rare for a Saskatchewan company to win these awards, and this is the first time a local builder has received multiple awards.
