Sydney Shade Outdoor Umbrellas

Terry was great to deal with throughout the whole process. We are very happy with the end product and it looks better than we were expecting.

We have have a deck facing onto a great view, but requiring summer shade through a wall mounted umbrella. It gets windy up there so we needed something sturdy. We had a look at the Paraflex and then saw details of the New Zealand engineered Shadowspec Retreat 2.7 m Hexagonal umbrella. We were impressed by its manouverability and apparent ease of operation compared with Paraflex. Terry from Sydney Shade had a first small batch of the Retreat coming in and was extremely helpful and flexible in getting one to us. We are delighted with the product which looks robust enough to stand up to the potentially windy location, and is as easy to put up and take down as the video suggests. The construction seems absolutely first rate, and the gas lift makes putting it up much easier than the competition, as does the highly innovative fold down hinged central rod. We are pleased we took the risk of buying sight unseen, and thanks to Terry and his New Zealand counterparts in answering our list of questions! Oh - and Terry is straightforward, and true to his word on every aspect, which is nice to experience.

Sydney Shade answered all my queries and communicated with a genuine interest in helping with the decision process. Terry and son were professional, Covid safe and got the job done as though it was their own backyard. We had them create the concrete footing as well and I’m definitely glad they managed this process as the final install looks excellent.

We bought the 4m octagonal serenity model. It was more expensive than most models we saw on the market BUT the quality is fantastic and it looks amazing. After seeing this umbrella, other brands looked so inferior so we decided to invest in this one. Terry is very passionate about his products and was very helpful. The installer was also so friendly. Would highly recommend.

I have just had installed a Serenity Cantilever Umbrella, 4m Octagonal with Surface Plate in Charcoal Tweed. Thanks to Terry and the team for awesome service. From the selection, purchase and install the service was top notch. As you can see in the photos, the product is worth the investment.

We were trying to find a solution for our backyard whereby we could have an umbrella without the need for a giant base.Came across Sydney Shade and installed a triple cantilever umbrella.Looks great and is so easy to use. A great investment that compliments our backyard perfectly. We plan to add a fourth umbrella to complete the set up and having used one of the built in LED lights will definitely be getting more ready for summer evenings around the pool.One of the great features is having the ability to rotate the umbrella and choose to have them all up or just the ones you need. This allows you so many options in the set up and use and the kids love having part of the pool in the shade.We were a little worried about having the umbrella set up simple bolted to our concrete but we have had no issues and so are very happy.Highly recommended to anyone looking for a great umbrella for their backyard.The whole process from initial contact with Terry to install and hand over was super easy with no issues. very professional.

Our 4m umbrella arrived today. The company has been amazing to deal with from the first day of contact until delivery and installation. The quality of the umbrella is beyond outstanding and the installers were polite and incredibly helpful.The umbrella's are more expensive than most, but they are absolutely worth it.

We bought a wall mounted retreat model. It looks amazing and has a quality finish. Terry at Sydney Shade was great in installing the unit at short notice.

We are loving our new Shadowspec umbrella, which has completed our poolside and outdoor seating areas. The umbrella is a beautiful addition, is constructed of high quality materials and is adaptable to provide shade to multiple areas.The Sydney Shade team offered great customer service with strong product knowledge and timely responses throughout the process.Thanks again for bringing an outstanding pop of colour and functional design to our backyard.

I contacted Terry at Sydney Shades in early December on the unlikely chance that we could get an Umbrella installed by Xmas Day. He was very helpful in providing advice on the mounting location, colour etc. True to his word he turned up 2 days before Xmas and installed the Umbrella. We are thrilled with it. The light works better than expected making it great for night swims and parties.
