Our Background

Econstruct was established in 2002 by Phillip Crogan, a Registered Builder, and Geoffrey Britton, a Quantity Surveyor. Both partners have been involved in the Western Australian construction industry for over 18 years and have managed many and varied construction projects and contract types.

Econstruct was formed through a mutual desire by the Partners to build Projects that focused on minimising environmental impact and maximising modern and traditional technologies to achieve a more comfortable and sustainable living environment.

Our Focus

The building industry has traditionally been a major consumer of non-renewable resources, contributing to the depletion of our environment & natural resources. Econstruct focus on reversing that trend to a sustainable level, and on providing a finished product that is energy and resource efficient.

For our customers, this offers considerable benefits:

• Reduced construction costs through increased efficiency and reduced waste
• Lower running costs

The environment benefits through:

• Reduced energy and water consumption
• Less waste leading to less landfill
• Appropriate use of materials leading to increased energy efficiency

Our customers and their communities benefit through:

• Increased level of personal comfort
• Community participation in environmental issues
• Cleaner local environment.
