Why our membership benefits you
Our involvement with TLA isn’t passive, we’ve exhibited at and sponsored TLA events. That engagement is about building a two-way partnership:
- Stronger NSW/ACT contractor connections: Membership gives us direct access to highly skilled, vetted landscape contractors across Sydney and the broader NSW/ACT regions, so we can connect you with the right team for your project.
- Faster, smoother project delivery: Through TLA’s network, we collaborate earlier with contractors on design intent, product selection and irrigation integration, reducing rework and accelerating timelines.
- Practical insights from the field: Events and knowledge-sharing keep us close to what’s working on the ground. Materials, installation methods, compliance trends, so our recommendations are both technically sound and commercially practical.
- A proactive, trusted community: TLA’s culture is hands-on and solutions-focused. That means better communication, clearer standards and shared accountability among everyone involved in your project.
- Visibility on quality: Sponsoring and exhibiting at TLA events lets us see and show innovation first-hand, from water-wise landscape practices to construction techniques that enhance durability and reduce maintenance.
Impactful advocacy: Balancing client outcomes with sustainable landscaping & water use
Great landscaping is about more than aesthetics, it’s about building outdoor spaces that endure and perform. Through TLA, we stay aligned with best-practice approaches to water-efficient design, smart irrigation integration, soil health and plant selection for local conditions.
