The ASA Building Consultants Story
The story of ASA Building Consultants goes back to 1997, just three years after building surveying was privatised in Australia. ASA’s directors, Sam Loizou and Arthur Liacopoulos, began working in the industry, and by 2003 they decided to start a building permit, surveying, and consultancy service of their own. Building designers, architects, developers, owners and builders themselves all appreciate Sam and Arthur’s propensity to find solutions to technical issues that may arise – devising solutions to save time and money, without compromising compliance.
ASA’s (Arthur, Sam and Associates) mission is to provide advice, solutions, and permits for all types of buildings, and to always go above and beyond for the client in order to achieve the desired outcome.
The ASA Building Consultants Team
When in the building design stage, ASA reviews and assesses your project, and this analysis continues on through the construction stage until project completion. The ASA team has been handpicked over the years, and includes qualified building surveyors, registered building inspectors, as well as staff with performance building surveying qualifications, and civil engineering degrees.
The ASA Building Consultants Approach
ASA develops positive working relationships with our clients, genuinely getting to know them as people. This is why a large percentage of ASA’s customers come via word-of-mouth referral. We care for our clients, and it shows via our consistent and predictable interactions with customers. You always know what to expect from ASA.
