But when is the right time to take out patio furniture? Did you know that taking it out too soon might do damage to it? Well in this article we are going to talk about when is the right time to take it out and what to be careful about.
When to put out patio furniture?
The most accurate answer to this question is After the danger of frost is gone. Although the outside temperature might be warm, check the weather forecast for your region. If it says that during the night the temperature will drop below the freezing point, then you should just wait a bit longer. You will definitely have to pay attention to the weather forecast if your outdoor furniture is made out of either teak wood or metal. Those two get affected the most by frost and should, therefore, be taken out only after the outside temperatures are above freezing. Frost can do significant damage to your garden furniture.
What should you do after you have taken your patio furniture out?
Well since you probably took it out as a part of your spring cleaning you should definitely clean the furniture as well. Only after it has been thoroughly cleaned you will see if there is any damage to it. You should keep in mind that not all materials can be washed with a pressure washer. If you won’t be careful you will most likely do more damage.
What to be careful about when you take your patio furniture out?
If you have restarted it, then there is not much to worry about except from strong wind. I always recommend someone,who asks me to get a cover for their furniture set if they are going to leave it outside all the time or during the winter.
Many times we forget about what is most important in life and also in our backyards. It is to relax and to have some fun with the people that we care about the most. So what are you waiting for? Go get some food and drinks and invite some people over. If your furniture needs some renewing you can also ask them to help you with that.
