BILT Wins Best Home Software Product at International Builders’ Show
3D app is a Win for Builders & Homeowners
LAS VEGAS, NV, February 15, 2023 –Builder confidence in the housing market is on the rise for the first time in more than a year, and the future of home building was front and center during Design & Construction Week. Between the International Builders’ Show (IBS) and the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS), almost 2,000 exhibitors showcased innovative products and services to more than 100,000 attendees. It was the largest turnout in 15 years signaling a post-pandemic return to normalcy and optimism in the industry.
The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) named winners in the 10th annual Best of IBS Awards. More than 400 applicants vied for recognition in nine categories. The judges considered innovation, functionality, design, and builder/consumer friendliness to pick the winners from 31 finalists. The Best Home Software Product was awarded to BILT, a free-to-use 3D instruction app that won the prize for Most Innovative Construction Tool in 2020.
“We’re honored the judges saw the benefit BILT brings to consumers as well as pros,” says BILT Chairman & CEO Nate Henderson. “Besides making contractors more efficient and profitable, it gives consumers the confidence to tackle projects they may never try otherwise.”
Henderson says BILT’s intuitiveness and ease of use make setup, assembly, installation, programming, maintenance, and repair an empowering experience. The free app also provides a “toolbox” of DIY guides and tool tutorials. Projects include home repairs, bike and auto maintenance, basic painting, plumbing, and electrical tasks.
“Besides making contractors more efficient and profitable, it gives consumers the confidence to tackle projects they may never try otherwise.”
