 Diamond Awards

 The 2013 Charleston Apartment Association Diamond Awards celebration was held on March 22, 2013.  Individuals and properties within the industry were nominated and voted on in a number of categories from maintenance to management to beautification and more.  The Diamond Awards, a yearly celebration, is designed to spotlight excellence within the industry over the past year.  This year's ceremony was such a success that a member in attendance from SealMaster took it upon himself to highlight the entire event in the company's blog on March 27, 2013:
