Renew Projects named best new business at trade awards

Renew Projects, a multi-trade service and subsidiary of Pacific Link Housing, has been named Best New Business at the 2025 Australian Trades Small Business Champion Awards.

The team received their award at a glittering red-carpet event in Sydney on Friday, August 29, which celebrated the achievements of outstanding trades businesses from across the country.

Renew Projects stood out in the New Business category, impressing an independent panel of expert judges.

“Being selected as a champion from a nationwide field speaks volumes about the tenacity and leadership of Renew Projects,”said Steve Loe, awards founder and managing director of Precedent Productions, which manages the awards program.

“This recognition highlights the rapid growth and dedication of the Central Coast-based team, which has been delivering high-quality property solutions and innovative trade services across the Central Coast and Hunter regions.”

Executive Director of Renew Projects Llewellyn Visagie said the team was incredibly honoured to be recognised on a national stage.

“This award reflects the hard work of our team and our commitment to delivering safe, sustainable, and reliable property solutions that make a real difference for our clients and community,” he said.

As a for-purpose business, Renew Projects also acknowledged the vital role of its valued partners, including Mitre 10, Bendigo Community Bank, Husqvarna, and other local suppliers, whose support has helped the business deliver high-quality outcomes.

Visagie extended thanks to the company’s dedicated team and clients for their trust and collaboration, which had been instrumental to its success.

He said that looking ahead, Renew Projects planned to continue building on this momentum over the next 12 months, with a focus on further expanding services and capability across the Central Coast and Hunter regions, creating new local jobs, and strengthening enduring partnerships that delivered long-term community benefits
