Sam Hughes Shade Sail Installation

Tucson Shade Sails has installers and repair techs working in Sam Hughes and across Tucson. Sam Hughes is a historic neighborhood just east of the University of Arizona, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, with brick bungalows and Spanish Revival homes.

Yards here are smaller and often shaded in part by mature mesquite and palo verde trees. A sail usually fills one gap, such as a courtyard or rear patio, and it needs to look at home next to older brick and stucco. If your lot is in a City Historic Preservation Zone, the City requires a permit for all development, so we check that first.

Arizona law requires a call to Arizona 811 before digging or drilling. Locators get two full working days to respond, and we don't drill a single post footing until every utility on the ticket has answered.
