The summer time is the moment that we bring out the shades or start looking to buy a new one. During this time they remain outdoor for extended periods of time and have to resist the harsh sunrays, wind and other atmospheric conditions. For that reason, it is important to follow the best maintenance practices, to ensure that your parasol lasts for years to come.

Shades sold at Alaire Living are made from the best parasol manufacturing brands. Although Alaire strives to offer its clientes high quality shading solutions, a regular upkeep is imperative for the extension of a parasols life span.

For a clearer understanding of how to go about the maintenance of your shades, parasol care and maintenance can be divided into 4 main groups: the canopy, mast, storage and the repairs.
