We take shade off your plate.

No chasing subs.

We carry the whole scope. Engineering, fabric, hardware, install, permits.

No shade callbacks.

We cut panels for load, the way we cut sails, and come back at six months to check tension.

No permits to track.

We pull what the city wants. Stamped drawings included on commercial scopes.

No fabric sourcing.

We sew sails and Roman shades in our Austin shop. Branded panels when you need them.

The logo goes into the cloth.

On the Long Center build, the HEB logo is sewn into the fabric. It doesn't fade or peel away. It comes off when the sail does, which is the only time we want it gone.

Six steps. Mostly invisible to your
guests.

Site visit and heat map.

We come measure, take sun angles, and map shade across the day. One visit, no charge.

Engineered drawings.

Sullaway-stamped on commercial scopes, to IBC 2024 and ASCE 7-22.

Fabric and branding.

We sew sails and Roman shades in our Austin shop. Branded panels woven on higher-end runs, printed on shorter ones.

Install on your schedule.

Most hospitality installs happen during off-hours. We work around service. We clean up at the end.

Permits and inspections.

We pull what the city wants. We're on site for the inspection.

We respond.

A person on our team reads your note and replies within one business day.

What we're not

If you need a Saturday tarp, we're not the call.

We don't do pop-ups. We don't do weekend rentals. We don't quote over the phone, because we haven't seen the site. We don't show up to a punch list and try to sell anything outside the shade scope.

Tell us the patio.

Send the address, the rough square footage, and a couple of photos. We come look, we map the sun, and we send a real number within one week.
