In recognition of this, he was awarded the 2019 Master Builders NSW Young Builder of the Year award.

Scott Somerville works as the construction manager on projects and coordinates all aspects of the physical build.
Scott is renowned for his attention to detail and master-builder craftsmanship. Scott is responsible for ensuring your project meets OneUp Building’s own rigorous standards for quality and excellence by personally overseeing the selection of all of the materials and inspecting the workmanship at every stage of the project.
You only have to look at recent projects such as Bayview Ave Earlwood, Maroubra, Gordon Avenue Coogee, Kardina St Mosman, Wentworth Avenue Point Piper, (to name just a few), or to reflect on the Knox St, Clovelly project, featured on Grand Designs Australia, to see the level of master builder quality and tradesmanship Scott is known for.
If you have any questions about the building process, or anything on-site just give Scott a call.
