UV protection is of utmost importance
The most important criteria when installing any form of shade in your home is its rate of UV protection. With Yarra Shade Co you can have confidence in knowing that all our fabrics offer over 90% UV protection. With Australia’s ozone layer continuing to wither and the number of Australians being diagnosed with skin cancer every year, you need to ensure your shade cover is going to be effective at protecting your family from UV rays.
Service that goes above and beyond
We understand factoring shade products into the family budget is a significant investment. That is why we put considerable research and effort into sourcing quality fabrics, galvanized steel posts and marine grade stainless steel fittings that withstand weather conditions and corrosion to give you a product that lasts. All our residential shade products have an expected lifespan of 10-15 years or more and come with a 3 year warranty to certify our commitment to quality. So when you work out how many summers of shade protection you will get out of one shade sail the price works out to be next to nothing. Particularly when you think you’re providing your family with optimum UV protection.
During your initial consult with us we will come and assess your home for:
- where you would like your shade,
- why you would like it in that area,
- what you’re trying to achieve, and
- what’s involved installation wise.
It is important you advise us of what you’re trying to achieve with your shade cover in particular areas, as we will match the product and fabric to your specific requirements. For example to reduce heat during hot months you may want to opt for the Atmosphere fabric for your outdoor blinds given the fabrics unique ability to breath and subsequently retain the benefit of air circulation when the blinds are drawn down.
In comparison if you have a spectacular scenic outdoor area but still require outdoor blinds to protect you from wind and rain you need to ensure your fabric is completely transparent so you do not lose any view. We would suggest clear PVC in this case. These are the considerations we take into account on every job so we know our products will be adding value to your lifestyle.
You can have confidence in knowing that after we complete the installation of your shade product we take particular care in ensuring we clean up completely before we go. We leave your home looking fantastic with its new shade cover.
