About Steven Vassalo

Hi! I’m Steven from Steve’s Oasis Landscapes

My introduction to landscaping came in fifth class primary school. My teacher, by the name of Mr Peter Langyon from Horsley Park Primary, gave me the project of laying a brick on edge bordered garden around a portable classroom at the school. I continued my gardening career by growing the vegetables for my family and making play areas for my younger brothers, from here gardening became my hobby and eventually my career.

In 1989 after completing the Landscaping around my own house, a friend of mine came over and was impressed enough to ask me to construct a small garden for him. From here he recommended me to a few of his friends and my business took off.

In the first couple of years of my Landscaping career I used the same materials as most other Landscape gardeners and home gardeners, but I wanted to be different! I spent much time thinking of something that would be an original product, “The Slate Block“. The Slate Block was a hit and it was not uncommon to do several jobs on the one street.
