As a natural product, wood requires special care to keep it in good condition and extend the life of the product.

If your product is treated, it is recommended to apply a cut end preserver if you cut, notch or drill the timber in any areas. This will ensure the treatment remains effective.

We recommend that you apply a wood preservative every year to maintain the finish of your furniture and ensure it lasts longer.

A wax or oil-based weatherproofing finish will also provide stability against shrinking and welling of the wood as moisture-levels vary and so is recommended to protect against extreme weather.

If you are not going to be using your furniture for a period of time, we suggest using a cover to keep it protected from the elements.

Painted furniture will need repainting every 12-24 months, depending on location and conditions. We suggest sanding down before painting to ensure a good finish.
