About Waterproof Shade Sails

Since the establishment of Shade Sail Audit in 1995 on the Mornington Peninsula, our central aim has been to provide the highest quality shade products available. We believe this can only be achieved when the whole job is completed in-house. This means our own staff design and install posts/fittings, manufacture the sails, then hang the sails.

Design

We will first come to site discuss the requirements of your project, and will then complete a full measure. From this, we will be able to provide both a 2D layout and a 3D shade diagram for your reference.

Manufacturing process

Developed from traditional yacht sail-making techniques, our dedication to quality sail making is unsurpassed in the industry. All our sails are manufactured in our own loft. This ensures we can use the highest quality materials including PTFE threads, pre-stented shade cloth and high grade stainless steel fittings.

Installation

By using only our own staff, we ensure that the quality of our posts, fitting, shade sails and all measurements are maintained for every job. Our install team is fully set up with all the required tools to ensure a smooth and tidy install.
