    St Francis of Assisi Primary School

    We have used the services of Shady Places over the last 2 years. When initially seeking designs and pricing for a significant shade sail project we sought designs and quotes from a number of companies. The brief given to the companies was to provide something that had flair and was competitively priced. From our perspective Shady Places was the only company that fulfilled both components of the brief. We were extremely pleased with the final product and it has been the feature centre piece of our school.

    The project was completed on time and the shadesail and the poles exceeded design requirements. Since the initial project we have engaged their services on a number of further projects. We will be completing another project this year and will not be considering another supplier.
    I am very confident that unlike some shade sail structures those installed by Shady Places will stand the test of time. The follow up after service has been exceptional and I have no hesitation in recommending their services to any other school or organisation. I would be more than happy for other businesses to visit our site to ascertain the quality of the workmanship.

    On behalf of Mowbray College, I wish to extend out sincere appreciation for the three projects that you and your team at Shady Places have completed for us over the past two years. Your knowledge and suggestions on the types of structures that best suit our needs has been invaluable and your professional approach and rapport with clients easily outstrips that of your main competitors.

Your professional team of workers has always conducted themselves in an appropriate manner in our school yard and I have received numerous positive comments about your work from our community members.

    All of the above incorporated with your competitive pricing schedule and quotes make it undeniably easy to recommend your company to other schools and organizations. We look forward to continuing our relationship with you and your company as required.

    Yours sincerely

    Hi Steve….A big thankyou for the great sail design that you have installed for us…….Being the very fussy and exacting client that I am, I must say that you and your staff went over and beyond with your professionalism and assistance in every aspect of this project.

    Please feel free to have future clients take a look at our sail if required….I’m sure there must be other fussy female clients out there that want to see your work first hand…….

    Thanks again……Kind Regards…
