Wisconsin Builders Association Names Badger Craftsman Award Winners
Winners Represent Exceptional Craftsmanship from Every Corner of Wisconsin – From Eagle River and Crivitz to Racine, Northwestern WI to Germantown
June 27, 2025 – The Wisconsin Builders Association (WBA) is proud to announce the winners of the 2025 Badger Craftsman Awards, recognizing excellence in residential construction and design across Wisconsin. Now in its fourth year, the annual program highlights the remarkable innovation, craftsmanship, and dedication of WBA members who are committed to building safe, accessible, and inspiring homes for Wisconsin residents.
Members from across the state submitted their top projects in a variety of categories, showcasing the best in homebuilding—from creative outdoor living spaces to cutting-edge smart home technology. Winners were determined by a combination of WBA member and public voting, with more than 6,400 votes cast during a one-month voting period.
“These awards shine a spotlight on the skill, creativity, and innovation of our members,” said WBA Executive Director Brad Boycks. “We are honored to recognize their efforts and continued leadership in advancing the building industry throughout Wisconsin.”
