Gosford Quarries is a large company with a true family approach. As Australia’s premier supplier, we operate professionally and efficiently in corporate capacities, and our staff treat each client with caring, friendly and reliable service.
Many historical landmarks feature this predominant colour, particularly the Australian War Memorial, hewn and built in the Wondabyne sandstone colour range, a building of such significance we have chosen it to present our 100 Year Centenary in our Centenary Logo for 2022.
Gosford Quarries was founded in 1922, its first processing plant in Gosford. In those days, the company was known as ‘'The Hawkesbury Sandstone Co.' The signature sandstone colour range of this era was ‘Gosford Grey’.
In January 2013, Gosford Quarries merged with Sarkis Bros. Sandstone, bringing together two of Australia’s most revered and experienced sandstone suppliers.
The Sarkis family has a rich heritage in stone, with their father, Antonios, founding a Limestone quarry in his homeland of Lebanon in the early 1970s. Stone processing has been an integral part of life for them ever since.
Gosford Quarries is now the primary supplier for the largest scale of civil and commercial works in Australia, consulting at the highest end of their market to Civil, commercial, and restoration partners.
Gosford Quarries are known as ‘The Sandstone People’. Generations of the employees now treat GQ like their family; they love, work, live & breathe sandstone in their lives.
Gosford Quarries is proud to be able to continue its traditions of quality and commitment to the Australian community established over the 99 preceding years of our Centenary.
