Happy Builders Day, strong and true,
Here is to walls that stand for years,
May every home that is built by you
Be filled with laughter, love and cheers!

Brick by brick, a home will rise,
Built with skill and built with care,
May your days be bright as skies
And luck be with you everywhere!

Gifts for a builder

For a male builder, a restrained bouquet in masculine tones or an original “men’s” bouquet is a good choice. Women in the industry — architects, engineers, estimators — especially appreciate flowers on their professional holiday. Another professional holiday is Accountant’s Day; ideas for men are in our birthday wishes for a man.
