Mr Uzzell, 53, said: “Gaining the Seal of Excellence means a great deal to me because the NHBC Pride in the Job awards are all about meeting high standards and that is my priority.

 “Our work here is about going the extra mile to achieve supreme quality in every area of the build, and it is rather nice to have that recognised.”
