We’re thrilled to share some exciting news! This week, Amsted was named a finalist for SIX Ontario Home Builders’ Association (OHBA) Awards of Distinction.
Each category includes only three finalists, selected from over 400 entries submitted across the province—making this recognition a significant achievement that we are incredibly proud of. Applying for these prestigious awards helps us stay at the forefront of the industry, and qualifying as a finalist is a key way in which we measure our success.
It’s also how we know we are fulfilling our vision: to craft homes that bring dreams to life. Our staff takes immense pride in their work, and being recognized validates their dedication and craftsmanship. We celebrate these successes with our clients and are deeply grateful for their trust in inviting us into their homes and collaborating on such incredible projects.
Here’s a look at our nominated OHBA Awards of Distinction (AoD) finalist projects:
Chic Modern Living
AoD Finalist for Home Reno over $500,001
Â
A complete reinvention of a narrow wartime home, this renovation brought light, space, and bold modern styling to create a future-ready home within its existing footprint.
Personal by Design
AoD Finalist for Bathroom Renovation
What started as a rarely used adjacent guest room is now a stunning new four-piece main bath. The retreat now offers ample storage, a soak-in tub, and large walk-in shower with a beautiful pop of colour.
Accessible Elegance
AoD Finalist for Home Reno between $250,001 – $500,000
This renovation transformed a dated bungalow into an elegant, fully accessible main floor, proving that inclusive design can be both beautiful and highly functional.
Luxury in Balance
AoD Finalist for New Home Bathroom
A private retreat within this large custom home, this ensuite blends scale, symmetry, and tactile luxury for two homeowners who share everything—except counter space.
Along with these four projects finalists, we are also honoured to be in the running for two prestigious titles:
- Ontario Renovator of the Year
