Frequently Asked Questions

A roofing or shading system where a fabric membrane is stretched under tension across a supporting frame or cables, rather than resting flat on beams. It gives a covered area that still lets in daylight and airflow.

Yes — column positions and span can generally be adjusted to fit most plot shapes, which is part of why the design is worked out on site rather than off a catalogue.

Yes. Accurate measurements, drainage direction, access and existing structures can only be properly assessed in person, and they directly affect both design and cost.

PVC-coated tensile fabric and PVDF-coated tensile membrane are the two most commonly used options; the right choice depends on your application and is confirmed during design.

Mild-steel or structural-steel framework, chosen based on the span and load your structure needs to carry, connected with stainless-steel cables and fittings.

A properly tensioned membrane is designed to shed water off its curved surface. Specific performance depends on the fabric specification and installation quality, confirmed at the design stage rather than promised generically here.

This depends on the size and complexity of the structure and current workload; a specific timeline is confirmed once the design and quotation are approved.

Yes, subject to an on-site inspection first to understand the existing structure's condition and design.

This depends on site exposure and usage; we can recommend a schedule once we've seen your structure.

Cost depends on covered area, design complexity, frame material, fabric specification, site access and any additional site work required. We don't publish a fixed price-per-square-foot figure — an accurate figure comes from a site visit.

Share your location, approximate dimensions, intended application and contact details through our Request a Quote page, and we'll arrange a site visit.

Yes. We provide a free on-site measurement and consultation with no obligation to purchase — our team visits your location, measures the space, discusses design options and provides a written quotation.
