2007 Awards for Professional Excellence

One of the top recognition programs for the building trade professional in Eastern Pennsylvania is the Lehigh Valley Builders Association's Awards for Professional Excellence. Developed by the association to distinguish high-caliber companies throughout the Lehigh Valley's residential building trade, the program reflects the quality and craftsmanship that is available in the Lehigh Valley through association members. "The whole program is about promoting professionalism," explains Jack Schmauch, Chairman of the Awards program. Adds Ellen Gellar Elstein of Creative Closets, Ltd., "The Awards program brings to the forefront the fact that there are valuable people in the Lehigh Valley who are very talented."

Lehigh Valley Builders Association proudly presents the 2007 Professional Excellence Awards.
