Peter Lo Bartolo
Managing Director
Qualifications
With a deep-rooted passion for building, I began my journey through an informal carpentry and building apprenticeship alongside my grandfather, whose craftsmanship and wisdom left a lasting impression on me. Though our time together was brief, it laid the foundation for my career and shaped my approach to building. I further developed my skills with a Diploma of Building and a Bachelor of Applied Science in Construction Management from RMIT. After gaining experience with a commercial builder, I realized my true passion lay in home building, leading me to co-found APC Build in 2010.
As Managing Director of APC Build, my role has evolved from working on the tools to overseeing process improvements, staff development, and ensuring the highest standards in our projects. I thrive on managing the entire build journey, from design and tendering to project commencement, while maintaining strong client relationships.
Building personalised homes is not just my profession; it’s my passion. I’m driven by my appreciation of the craft and the positive impact we create for our clients. As a proud recipient of the 2019 MBAV Young Master Builder of the Year, my focus remains on continually growing both our team and our company culture.
Adrian Latina
Construction Manager
Qualifications
With a strong foundation in plumbing and gas fitting, I’ve been passionate about building since I was young. Starting with a four-year apprenticeship and earning a diploma in plumbing and gas fitting, I’ve always had a hands-on approach to my craft.
Over the years, I’ve gained invaluable experience across the construction industry and I’m proud to be a part owner of APC Build, heading up the Construction Division as the Construction Manager. In this role, I lead project teams, troubleshoot issues, and plan ahead to ensure every project runs smoothly.
For me, building is more than just a job — it’s about creating something meaningful. Whether it’s assisting with a dream home or finding solutions to complex problems, seeing the final product and happy clients makes the hard work worth it. Working alongside my colleagues, including some family members, adds an extra layer of pride to what we do at APC Build.
Adam Dispinzeri
Head of Sales & Estimation
Qualifications
With over two decades of experience in the building and construction industry, I began my career in 2002 after completing an apprenticeship in Cabinet Making. I later moved into commercial joinery, where I served as a Senior Project Manager for Lockin Lockers.
My journey led me to APC Build, where I currently liaise with clients and architects to facilitate discussion in relation to the project brief and tender.
What excites me most about my work is seeing homes come to life — from the initial 2D plans to the final, tangible, reality. I thrive on the collaboration and the energy in the office, and I find great satisfaction in discussing potential builds with clients.
Sam D'Andrea
Design Manager
Before joining APC Build, I developed a passion for cabinetry design. This introduced me to the intricacies of various products used in joinery, further sparking my interest in the world of design.
As the Design Manager at APC Build, I work closely with our talented interior designers and all departments to bring our clients’ dream homes to life.
What I love most about my role is helping families create homes where they can build memories. Seeing the joy on our clients’ faces when we perfectly capture their vision is incredibly rewarding. Being part of a family-run business and working alongside such dedicated people, makes every day enjoyable.
The integration of our knowledge, and our architects' knowledge, is the perfect blend for custom home building.
After three generations of custom home building, APC is introducing a smarter way to build the home of your dreams. One that's refreshingly free from stress.
