Wooden garden furniture forms an
important part of your lush green gardens. It is not only a symbol of comfort
but also adds a hint of elegance to the external spaces. Thus, it is very
essential to take proper care of your hardwood garden furniture, in
order to maintain its beauty and ensure its durability.
To maintain your wood furniture in its prime, it is
important that you know the type of wood from which it is made. Considering the
climate in your region is also essential. However, there are some basic
maintenance tips for your wooden garden furniture that you must follow, irrespective of the climate and type of
wood. Here are some tips that will help you keep your hardwood garden furniture intact for years.
When you purchase wooden furniture items, you will be
given user manuals which will contain maintenance tips as well. Follow all of
these tips since they are given by professionals who have crafted the furniture
items. Secondly, whenever you are not using your furniture, ensure it is
covered well and stored in a neat and dry place. This prevents unnecessary
exposure to dirt and stains that are hard to remove.
Also, it is best to regularly wipe your wooden
garden furniture, especially during the rainy season to remove excessive
moisture that can seep into the wood and cause damage. All you have to do is to
use a dry cloth and swipe it over the furniture item. Sunlight and rain might
be healthy for your garden, but they are not recommended for hardwood garden
furniture. Keep these furniture pieces away from direct sunlight to ensure
they last long without becoming dry and brittle. Coating them periodically with
a layer of wax and anti-termite polish will also assure you of its longevity.
