1build is thrilled to announce it has been named a top construction startup for 2021 by the National Home Builders Association (NAHB) and included in its IBSx pavilion virtual event held on February 9 - February 12. 

The NAHB IBSx or International Builders’ Show aims to highlight the most innovative startups transforming the home building industry--from concept to product--so builders can envision the future of home building and change the way they currently do business. 

1build is honored to be selected from among 100 construction companies with products or services less than 3 years old. And because we’re constantly developing new products and services to solve entrenched problems in cost estimating and the home building industry, we hope this is the first but not the last time we’ll be featured on NAHB’s list of top construction innovators.
