How to choose the best outdoor shade supplier for your project

An outdoor shade supplier has access to the best quality materials available in Australia. When deciding on which shade supplier to work with, it is useful to choose one that specialises in the type of building project you are working on. Some suppliers will specialise in supplying materials for large-scale commercial builders, while some will specialise in smaller residential projects. Others will again specialise in certain shading options such as awnings or pergolas. It can be useful to work alongside suppliers who are experts in the type of project you have in mind. When deciding on which supplier to choose, these questions may be useful to ask:

• How long have you been an outdoor shade supplier in Australia?
• Do you specialise in commercial or residential shading projects?
• What do you consider when choosing shading materials?
• Are your materials suitable for the weather conditions in my area of Australia?
• Can you outline the costs involved in your services?
• What is the estimated timeframe for your materials to reach me?

Do you need council approval for an awning?

You may need council approval for an awning. This will depend on the height of the awning and the location and size of the property. It is important to check with local council regulations in Australia to ensure you do not need council approval.

Will an outdoor shade keep out the rain?

An outdoor shade will not usually keep out the rain. However, it will to some extent limit the amount of water that goes through it. In saying this, you can invest in waterproof shade sails that also block out the sun. If you are in a rainy area in Australia, these may be ideal options.  

Can awnings withstand wind?

Yes, most awnings can withstand around 30 km/h winds. Some higher-end awnings can withstand more. It is important to retract awnings if high winds are expected to avoid any damage.
