As this was our first encounter with ShadeFX, we took a cautious approach to their products. After engaging with them for a project in North York we knew right away that their service was of the highest standard. Questions we had about their products were answered quickly and effectively, samples were obtained for our client and their responsiveness to our needs were met immediately. We used one of their newer products, a cantilevered shade canopy, and found that the product is an adaptable structure, especially in the residential market where tight spaces can make projects frustrating. Our order was fulfilled, and their team was effective in communicating and working with our construction teams to get the canopy installed on-site. Overall, as a company, I would highly recommend the ShadeFX brand to others within the industry for upholding the highest quality in their products and services!

After researching many different sunshade options for our new backyard, we ultimately settled on large scoped umbrellas. Unhappy with the limited coverage, and instability under mildly windy conditions, we looked into alternative solutions. Upon further research, we came across the ShadeFX Freestanding Retractable Canopy, it appeared to address all of our needs. After discussing its capabilities with ShadeFX, we decided to purchase three units (one stand alone, and two attached). The ShadeFX service team carried out a site assessment and installed the units shortly after. After using the systems for a summer, I can say it withstands any gusts of wind tossed its way. Our favourite feature of the system is the ability to partially retract the shade, providing sun to those who wish, and shade to others. Teja and I are very happy with the quality of the product, and professional service provided by ShadeFX.

Our clients wanted a shaded seating area near the pool, but didn’t want a heavy structure, or a solid roof – something that presented itself as a lighter touch in the landscape. The shade gave us the perfect solution and by making it retractable, they have the option to let more light in when they need it.

We recently installed a ShadeFX canopy system in order to add versatility to a poolside pergola. The awning offers our client the flexibility for sun or shade and allows them to maximize the use of their outdoor patio. The ShadeFX canopy that we installed also offers protection from UV rays and is wind and rain resistant, making it an even more valuable feature to the outdoor space.

Our Client wanted something that would give them the option to sit in the sun or shade but that was not a large obstruction when it wasn't being used to block the sun. We always use ShadeFX for these types of projects because of the modern and sleek look their products offer. They are easy to use, easy to install and give a lot of versatility in smaller backyards versus a large heavier solid canopy or roof.

Our canopy is installed and we LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. Thank you so much for the great service and quality product. Attaching some pictures for you to see. What a difference. We can now enjoy our sitting area more often and in the peak of the daytime sun.

We’re very pleased that we found ShadeFX for our canopy. From the first time we contacted them until the canopy was delivered, installed, and functioning, the customer service has been impeccable. Phone calls and emails were always answered quickly and clearly. The quality of the product is outstanding - even our contractor is impressed. We’re looking forward to making use of the canopy in all seasons.

We are quite happy with our purchase. The shade works very well for our space. It was a pleasure to work with Kevin at ShadeFX. He was very helpful and was very prompt with his responses to the questions I had. All in all, a good experience.
