Don’t let the sun get ya!

We have been busy setting up shades for people leading up to Christmas and may it continue.

We have some stock Umbrella sets we are doing pre christmas deals on, especially to those who would be willing to dig a hole and set their own pole into the concrete, all you need is a wheelbarrow, a few spades and a level to put our supplied pole in concrete in the ground.

We can do the rest.

Are you interested to get some shade for home next week??

Quality is when it stands the real test, time.

23 years so far.

This umbrella was a pre loved umbrella from a bar that closed down.

8 years ago when that bar closed this 4m Deluxe model umbrella was 15yrs old, it had a new black cover fitted and was installed in this clients back yard one road back from the shore at Bucklands beach, Auckland.

It just recently had a cable change and it still looks and operates amazingly.

When it comes to quality shades to give you 2-3+ decades of waterproof shade nothing seems to have competed with our large side post umbrellas.

These come in 4m, 5m & the largest market umbrella size of 6m.

7 years ago we started the square model umbrella for specific needs, this is the Square model that measures 3.7m x 3.7m down the straight edges and spans 5.05m across the longest edge of the square.

If this is something that you can see yourself enjoying then reach out for the off season specials offered from the 1st of May through till the 30th of June 2025.

If you haven't spent time here in summer time, it's worth a visit... The Point Erin Baths(pools) right there in Ponsonby next to the Auckland Harbour bridge.

Nestled up there on the hill is a brand new play ground with big trees and big umbrellas(you're welcome )
😉
The oldest umbrella at the pools is about 18+years old and still working exactly as it should.

As soon as the sun comes out and the new grass goes down it will be a place worth a visit with friends this summer.

Some spots are worth the share... this house was beautiful inside and out, based in Christchurch.

We're searching for installers and to eventually to set up a south island branch somewhere central island.

What we're looking at here is 3x 6 Meter Deluxe side post umbrellas in Ghost Grey with Royal Blue canvas.

What do you think of their living space improvement?

Another great area with a new Umbrella, this was a tidy small backyard that didn't suit having multiple big poles... so we set up one of our 100% waterproof umbrellas in a position to swing around different areas at different times of the day.

Many people don't think about the sun angles throughout the day and seasons when they set up shades, so these umbrellas are often a great solution to be able to cover your area through different sun angles and temperatures.

The season's here... have you considered what your outdoor area will be like this summer?
