Umbrella canopy replacement

A quality wood umbrella frame lasts decades. It's the canopy that wears out. A custom replacement canopy costs a fraction of a new umbrella. Count the ribs, measure the diameter, send photos, get a quote.

Canopy washing & restitching

UV kills thread before it kills fabric. If your awning or sail is structurally sound but fraying at the seams, washing and restitching adds years of life for a fraction of replacement cost.

“Fantastic — my old umbrella was in tatters and now looks better than when it was new. Great workmanship and great service. I was able to match the covers on my chairs. The result is outstanding.”

“Our outdoor umbrella was broken after being lifted out of the table by a very strong gust of wind. Sebastian fixed the broken ribs, sewed up the rips in the cloth and replaced the areas where the ribs are attached. Awesome job.”

Straight answers

Asked often

Q01Do you install shade sails?

Yes. We can supply and install, or supply only if you have your own installer. For repairs, we can often work with the sail taken down and re-hung.

Q02Can you repair a shade sail rather than replace it?

Often, yes. If the fabric is sound but seams are failing or edges need re-binding, a repair is usually the smart call. Send photos and we will advise honestly.

Q03Do you replace umbrella canopies?

Yes. If your wood umbrella frame is in good condition, a custom replacement canopy costs a fraction of a new umbrella. We need the rib count, diameter and photos to quote.

Q04What fabrics do you use for awnings and shade sails?

Commercial-grade acrylics like Planasol and Sunbrella for awnings, and proper shade mesh for sails. All UV-stabilised for New Zealand conditions with a wide colour range.

Q05How much does an outdoor squab cost?

It depends on size, foam grade and fabric choice. Send us dimensions and photos of the bench or furniture and we will quote quickly.
