THE LEADERSHIP TEAM
Bridge was formally established in 2021 by its founding Directors -
Andrew Garlick and Hannah Dittrich.
Since 2016, Andrew and Hannah have collectively worked alongside one another and during that time discovered the essentials components of building surveying required to offer a high end service to the industry.
Whilst both being keenly passionate about building surveying and the construction industry generally, they are very different in nature.
A Building Surveyor can often be seen as a roadblock on a project, however at Bridge we pride ourselves on being professional whilst offering a personable and collaborative approach to each project, which we believe is an important and integral part to any project team.
Together they acknowledged that they could provide the ultimate building surveying service and therefore established Bridge in order to best facilitate the industry in which they are so passionate about.
Andrew Garlick - Director
Andrew is a proactive and engaging building surveyor, with a thorough understanding of both the planning and construction stages of a project. Originally Andrew started his career in the construction industry ‘on the tools’ which in turn enables him to effectively communicate with builders and project stakeholders to provide key insights as a project progresses.
Andrew brings a wealth of knowledge to Bridge from his exposure of working on diverse, complex, and successful projects. He is experienced with working on various types of projects, from schools and community centres to hospitals and aged care facilities, from retail and office fit outs, and a variety of residential projects. Andrew endeavours to break the mold and provide more to a project than black and white advice.
In his spare time, you will find Andrew cycling in the Dandenong's, supporting the Richmond Tigers, water skiing and hanging out with his family and friends.
Andrew is a Registered Building Practitioner in Victoria as a Building Surveyor-Unlimited and Building Inspector-Unlimited and has also successfully completed a Graduate Certificate in Performance Based Building & Fire Codes
