Wiluna’s Club Hotel and St Francis Xavier Cathedral in Geraldton won renovation prizes in the 2018 Master Builders-Bankwest Building Excellence Awards presented at Geraldton Grammar School last night.

The Cathedral also won Crothers Construction the Best Regional Project title.

The Shire of Wiluna bought the former Club Hotel building last year and hired Geraldton Building Services and Cabinets to transform it into the council’s new headquarters and a community function centre.
