In a celebration of skill, talent and expertise, Marshalls plc held their annual domestic contractor awards in Wales on 12 May 2023 and crowned winners in ten garden and driveway categories.
The Marshalls Register Awards are for the 1000+ businesses which are accredited by the leading hard landscaping business. The prestigious event was held at Celtic Manor, with 200 guests. Over 450 projects from 200 different businesses were entered into the awards.
The big prize went to Neil Walker Landscapes based in Scotland, which was given the highly esteemed title of “Contractor of the Year 2022/23” and won £20,000 worth of Marshalls product. It was also awarded ‘best engineering achievement’ for this incredible project.
