Frequently Asked Questions
The price of a custom shade sail in Alicante ranges from €200 to €1,500 depending on the size, material (HDPE or PVC-coated polyester) and the anchoring system. Triangular sails are more affordable than rectangular or custom-shaped options.
It depends on the intended use. HDPE (high-density polyethylene) is breathable, making it ideal for pool areas as it allows airflow while blocking up to 95% of UV rays. PVC-coated polyester is waterproof and also protects from rain, making it perfect for outdoor dining areas.
It depends on the material. HDPE sails are permeable and only protect from the sun, not rain. PVC-coated polyester sails are waterproof and do protect from rain. It is important that the sail has a minimum slope of 20% so that water drains properly.
Sails can be anchored to steel posts, wall plates, sturdy trees or existing structures. The key requirement is that the anchor points can withstand the necessary tension. At Optim Toldos we carry out a site survey to determine the best configuration.
A quality shade sail with UV-stabilised fabric has a useful life of 10 to 15 years. We recommend taking it down in winter if not in use to extend its life, although many of our clients in Alicante keep them up all year without any issues.
