Size, fabric, how many new posts are needed and how the footings are engineered all affect the price. A sail between existing walls is cheaper than a large sail on new steel posts. Use the form to send a few details and you'll get a price.
Sails and posts should be designed for Townsville's wind region, but no sail should be left up in a cyclone. They're built so the fabric can be released and taken down quickly when a warning is issued.
A good-quality, UV-stabilised commercial shade cloth holds up best. Lighter colours stay cooler underneath, while darker colours usually block a little more light.
It depends on the size, height and where the sail goes. Some small residential sails don't need approval, but it's always worth checking with Townsville City Council first.
Fabric life depends on quality, tension and how often it's taken down in storms. Keeping it tight and releasing it in severe weather helps it last much longer.
