Garden room furniture is a beautiful addition to any outdoor space. It provides a comfortable and stylish area where you can relax, entertain guests, or enjoy the beauty of your garden. However, like any other furniture, garden room furniture requires regular maintenance to ensure its longevity and keep it looking its best. In this article, we will share 5 tips to help you look after your furniture to help make the most of your outdoor space.
Clean Your Garden Room Furniture Regularly
Regular cleaning is essential to keep your garden room furniture looking fresh and free from dirt and debris. Start by removing any loose dirt or leaves with a soft brush or cloth. Then, mix a mild detergent with warm water and use a sponge or soft brush to scrub the garden room furniture gently. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow it to air dry. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the furniture’s finish.
Our flagship Semarang range is made from a delicate wood called Mindi. It is naturally resistant to durable weather conditions, making it a long-lasting choice. If you encounter any spills, they should be cleaned immediately with a damp cloth so they look immaculate.
Protect Your Garden Room Furniture From the Elements
It is essential to protect your garden room furniture from tough conditions. During periods of heavy rain, consider covering your furniture with waterproof covers or storing it indoors. This will help prevent water damage and prolong the life of your garden room furniture.
Our Jogya range is made from rattan, a flexible material that is easy to lift and rearrange. Our rattan garden room furniture is known for its quirky design, resulting in a beautiful look that can complement any garden room. But that’s not all, because rattan is also a durable material that is hard-wearing and can withstand the elements.
Avoid Direct Sunlight
Direct sunlight can cause your furniture to fade and discolour over time. What sets our garden room furniture apart is that it is easily moveable so that you can store it inside in a shaded spot. If your furniture is made of wood, consider applying a UV-resistant finish to protect it from the sun’s harmful rays.
Keep Your Garden Room Furniture Cushions Clean
Keeping outdoor cushions and upholstery clean is essential for keeping your garden room furniture clean, both for comfort and to enhance its visual appeal. Cleaning your cushions regularly could help create a pleasant and inviting seating area for outdoor gatherings.
To clean your outdoor cushions properly, start by removing any loose dirt and debris. Then, spot clean the areas with a mixture of mild detergent and water while rubbing them with a soft brush or cloth. After doing this, air dry the cushions with a vacuum so they look as good as new.
Store Away Your Cushions Properly
Our garden room furniture is available with comfortable cushions. We know how essential they are to make your garden room furniture experience relaxing, so it’s important to store them away properly. These designs should be kept dry and clean to prevent mould and mildew growth. Consider investing in cushion storage bags or boxes to protect them from dust and moisture. Additionally, remove any stains or spills from the cushions as soon as possible using a mild detergent and warm water.
