Southern Judges
Anthony Martin
Anthony began his apprenticeship at the age of 15, working alongside his father in 1961. Together, they crafted windows and kitchen cupboards in a shed at home. He vividly recalls cutting hardwood frames on-site using a petrol Sawmaster, a tool he still possesses to this day. In the early days, footings were dug by hand until the late 60s when the introduction of backhoes made the process more efficient. Upon completing his apprenticeship, Anthony dedicated three nights a week for three years to the Clerk of Works program. In 1968, he became a partner in the family business, specializing in renovations and home construction. This venture spanned many years, providing services to numerous clients. In 1971, Anthony joined the MBA and has maintained his membership ever since. He is highly regarded within the building industry, recognised for his extensive knowledge and expertise.
Stephen Chapman
Stephen is a builder with over 49 years of experience in residential building, as well as commercial fit outs and repairs. His true passion lies in passive solar design for the domestic market in Australia, aiming to improve living standards for all at a reasonable cost. He constructed his first passive solar house 23 years ago, which was built under the CSIRO Five Star Rating Scheme of that time. Stephen is a qualified carpenter and licensed builder, having held a builder’s license for 49 years. He was among the first NatHers assessors, now known as the Basix Scheme, and is also a GreenSmart builder. He has served as a Mentor for the MBA CAMS scheme and currently holds the position of President of the MBA Hume Division, a role he has fulfilled for the past three years. Outside of his professional endeavours, Stephen enjoys hobbies such as scouting, bush care, land regeneration, and volunteer work with the Australian Red Cross. He takes pride in being part of the judging panel for the MBA Southern Regions Excellence in Building Awards.
Keith Bingham
Keith began his career at 14 years and 9 months, back in 1969. His journey started in a joinery shop in Melbourne, where he spent six months crafting windows, doors, kitchens, and various other joinery projects. This experience laid the foundation for skills in carpentry and joinery, and he started his apprenticeship shortly thereafter.
After six months, he transitioned to a new opportunity, continuing the apprenticeship in carpentry and joinery with Fred Holt, a small residential home builder in Melbourne. He completed his apprenticeship under his guidance and worked with him for a short time before embarking on a new chapter as a subcontractor.
Since then he has been self-employed, specializing in residential housing construction and renovations. In 1980, he made the move to Ulladulla, where he applied for his Builders Licence. Keith has been a proud member of the Master Builders Association (MBA) for 19 years, and he considers it an absolute privilege to be part of the judging panel for the Southern Regions Excellence in Building Awards 2024, alongside Stephen Chapman and Anthony Martin.
