OUR STORY
A family business.
A personal standard.
Thomas and Francisco. Father and son. The people who measure, design and install your shade sail.

THOMAS / OWNER & INSTALLER
It starts with
a conversation.
“Hi, I’m Thomas Rapley, owner of Shades2U.”
Thomas generally quotes from your photos and project details first. If you want to proceed, he visits to walk you through the installation. His focus is practical advice and a design tailored to your home.
Based in Morayfield, the family has completed more than 200 custom installations since 2017, working throughout Moreton Bay, North Brisbane and selected Sunshine Coast suburbs.
FRANCISCO / INSTALLATION TEAM
Then we
build it together.
Francisco works alongside his father on the installations. The same team sees the project through from the first visit to the finished shade.
The existing Shades2U website describes a hands-on approach: no commissioned salespeople and no subcontracted installation team. You deal with the people doing the work.

THE BEST PART OF THE JOB
The final fixing.
The first thumbs-up.
Our project library is full of real people at home beneath their finished shade sails. Those are the spaces—and the moments—we work towards.
