HAPPY CUSTOMERS
Delivering a full service
experience with our
quality shade umbrellas.
After much consideration and ‘shopping around’ we had our umbrellas installed by Mark at Umbrella Paradise. We were/are extremely happy with the quality if their product, price and above all the friendly and professional customer service offered. We HIGHLY recommend this business and would not hesitate to recommend this quality product. We now have shade all day long around and over our pool and the best part about it is that we can move/adjust the umbrellas to our like and needs. And they neatly tuck away to use minimum space when not in use.
