Custom Shade Solutions for Somerville
Stylish, Durable, and Protective Shades & Structures
There’s something about outdoor living in Somerville. Whether it’s a quiet afternoon in the garden, weekend gatherings under the pergola, or keeping kids cool around the trampoline, locals here value the open air — and they need shade that matches their lifestyle.
At Peninsula Shade Sails, we’ve spent decades working across the Mornington Peninsula, and Somerville is a place we know well. Our shade solutions are designed for the way people live — with large residential blocks, tree-lined streets, and open skies that need proper protection from the sun.
We don’t just install shade sails. We work with you to design custom shade structures that blend with your home’s architecture, protect your outdoor spaces, and stand up to wind, sun, and the occasional summer storm.
Shade Sail Design for Somerville Properties
Homes in Somerville aren’t all built the same, and that’s why we don’t offer one-size-fits-all sails. From long driveways to acreage patios, small courtyards to large school play areas, we design shade sail solution around the way you use your space.
Some of the places our clients ask us to shade include:
- Entertaining decks – make your alfresco area a year-round feature.
- Carports and driveways – keep your vehicles protected from UV and heat.
- Garden nooks and play spaces – shade delicate plants or give kids a safe place to play.
