Outdoor Furniture Feeling The Heat?

Summer can be tough on timber, so keep it cool by using coasters or mats under anything hot to protect the surface. Wipe with a damp cloth to lift dust and apply a sealant to keep the colour rich. When styling, position timber furniture in shaded, ventilated areas. This allows the wood to breathe while preserving its natural warmth and grain.

FABRIC & CUSHIONS

Long sunny days call for clean and fresh cushions. Brush off dust and crumbs after each use to keep fabrics soft. For deeper care, spot-clean any marks with mild soap and water, then let them dry upright to maintain shape and colour. When not in use, move cushions to a covered area or indoors — this keeps them looking newer for longer and protects the fabric from heat and humidity.

METAL & CONCRETE SURFACES 

Metal and concrete surfaces are designed to withstand the elements, but they still benefit from some TLC. Wipe with gentle soap and water, then dry completely to prevent watermarks. Avoid citrus-based cleaners and harsh sprays containing acetone, alcohol or bleach to protect their finish. Whenever possible, keep these materials out of direct sunlight to prevent discolouration and help preserve their finish.
