MAINTENANCE AND CARE TIPS FOR OUTDOOR WOOD FURNITURE:
The best way to preserve and extend the life of your outdoor wood furniture is to cover it with a
waterproof cover when it's not in use, store it in a cool, dry place like a garage or shed during the
winter months, and keep the wood hydrated with products like linseed oil a couple times per year.
The less exposure your wood furniture has to sun, wind, rain, and snow, the longer it will last.
Woods that are stained or painted should be sanded and re-stained or repainted as needed to
protect the elements from penetrating the surface. Wood left in direct contact with wet surfaces
will quickly become saturated and rot. When wood does get wet, dry it off as quickly as possible.
It's also important to place your outdoor wood furniture on a surface where water won't pool. A
patio or deck is an ideal spot, and you should consider paving stones or a bed of rocks for wood
furniture out in the garden. Wood left in direct contact with wet surfaces will quickly become
saturated and rot. When wood does get wet, dry it off as quickly as possible or leave it out in the
sun to dry.
Frequently exposed to harsh conditions or damp surfaces, wood furniture will begin to show signs
of wear and deterioration. Signs of damage may include checking (cracking or splitting), swelling,
rotting, and discoloration. In addition to protective covers and off-season storage, you can further
prevent this type of damage by keeping woods well-hydrated with products like linseed oil. Saturate
your furniture with the oil several times per year. Well-oiled wood will be better-protected from the
elements and will retain its color and smooth surface longer. Woods that are stained or painted
should be sanded and re-stained or repainted as needed to protect the elements from penetrating
the surface.
Take time to learn more about how your particular type of wood tends to weather. Some woods,
like pine, will require frequent staining or oiling, while a wood like cedar has natural oils that make
it resistant to cracking and moisture rot. Woods like teak will turn a silver grey when left untreated,
and many outdoor wood furniture owners look forward to this transformation.
Finally, dirt build-up leads to deterioration, so keeping your outdoor wood furniture clean will give
it a longer life. Clean it well two or three times per year with water, mild soap, and a soft cloth. (This
is also the perfect time for a periodic hardware check.) We recommend using a product specifically
designed for cleaning wood furniture. Hose it down before you start to remove cobwebs and caked-
on dirt. Do not use abrasive cleaners, bleach, or scouring products that will affect the finish. Dry
the furniture thoroughly when done. Poolside furniture should be hosed down after each use to
minimize chlorine damage.
