SUN SAILS.

Tensioned fabric sun sails — modern, sculptural, the most cost-effective shade install. Custom-cut, anchored to walls or steel posts, removable for winter.

Why this matters

SCULPTURAL SHADE,
MINIMAL FOOTPRINT.

Sun sails are tensioned UV-rated fabric panels suspended between anchor points. They're the cheapest shade option per square foot and the most architectural — clients choose them for the modern look as much as the shade.

We engineer the anchor points (walls, steel posts, existing structures) to handle the tension load. Done right, sails last 10-15 years; done wrong, the anchor pulls out of the wall.

FAQ

SUN SAILS QUESTIONS.

How long do sun sails last in Utah sun?

10-15 years typical for quality fabric. Lower-end fabric fades and weakens in 5-7 years.

Do they handle wind?

Yes when properly tensioned and anchored. Most homeowners take them down for winter — easier on the fabric.

Do they shed rain?

Quality sails shed rain when angled correctly (one corner low). Don't expect total weather protection — they're for sun.

Can I take them down myself?

Yes — most sails come down in 15-20 minutes once installed. We show you how.

UV protection?

Quality sail fabric blocks 90-95% UV. Not the same as a roof, but significant.

Cheapest shade option?

Yes, per square foot. A 20'x20' sail can be $2,000-$3,500 installed. Pergolas covering the same area: $10K+.
