Sanctuary Landscapes was established by Ross Thomas in 2006. Originally opened as Ross Thomas Landscapes, the business name was updated in 2008.
A Wollongong local, Ross graduated Year 12 at Keira High in 1998 before completing his landscaping apprenticeship at a leading Sydney landscaping company. During this time, he was undertaking projects mostly in the Northern and Eastern suburbs of Sydney. Whilst working in these areas, Ross developed a love of handcrafted sandstone and recycled brick and when it finally came time to landscape his own home these materials featured heavily.
Ross started his own business so he could share his passion for landscaping with properties in his local area. In the early days of running his business, Ross decided to operate at a small enough scale that he could be on-site working on every project at every step. This also meant lower overheads so he could ensure his work was competitively priced.
Ross loves working outdoors and finds it deeply satisfying to create beautiful and functional outdoor spaces. When he's not at work Ross still loves being active and outdoors, whether it's playing hockey, golfing, fly-fishing or exploring our Region's beautiful National Parks and beaches with his family.
