Still got your shade sail up?

Now is the perfect time to bring them down to inspect for any damages, give them a good wash and store them away. Doing this gives them an extra long life.

We offer a full service for your shade sail where we dismantle, professionally clean, repair if needed, and safely store until the warmer months return.

When summer rolls back around, they’ll be ready to go again, looking fresh and functioning exactly as they should.

If you want to protect your investment and make next season easy, now’s the time to book it in.

It might seem harmless to roll up a damp cover or pack it away “just for now”, but trapped moisture is the fastest way to ruin good canvas.

When canvas stays damp, it creates the perfect environment for mould and mildew to grow. That’s when you start seeing black spots, musty smells, and fabric that slowly weakens over time.

Before storing, open it up and let it fully dry before rolling it away. A bit of airflow and sunlight can make all the difference.

If you're trying to restore your canvas from mould and are not sure if it's past repair, send us a photo, and we'll let you know.

A roof over your awning is a great way to protect it from the elements. It also makes the area more usable year-round.

This permanent caravan awning was in need of some new walls.

Having opted for getting an over roof a few years ago the canavs awning underneath is still fine.

So a simple switch of old to new walls onsite.

Looking sharp and all sealed and weather tight once again.

Outdoor living is a big part of Kiwi life — but so are sun, wind and sudden weather changes.

As the weather starts to turn, your boat often spends more time sitting between trips — and that’s when damage can sneak in. Wind, rain, falling leaves, and cooler damp conditions can be tough on upholstery and electronics.

A good road cover does more than protect your boat on the trailer. It keeps water out, reduces UV exposure on clear days, and stops debris building up while your boat’s parked.

Heading into the more unpredictable months, a well-fitted cover helps keep everything dry, clean, and ready for the next day on the water. 🚤

If your cover isn’t doing its job like it used to, feel free to get in touch for a chat.
