Tips To Restore Your Patio Furniture

The Maids Medway • May 16, 2014

Many people tend to focus more on house cleaning only on the inside of their houses, forgetting that the appearance of their outdoor space has a great impact on the overall picture of the home. Maintaining your patio furniture, in particular, is very essential to the overall appearance of the outdoor space. The daily exposure to the sun, humidity, and grime from substances take a toll on the furniture, which then leads to a restoration. If your furniture has lost its luster, here are a few tips you can practice to restore it and protect it for a long time.

Before deciding what to do, it is important that you inspect your outdoor patio furniture to see whether the pieces require some regular cleaning or whether you will need a new paint job.

Regular Cleaning

Outdoor patio furniture is always exposed to several elements, so it’s important to ensure that it gets thorough cleaning regularly. To avoid salt, grime or other material buildup, the furniture should be cleaned with a detergent on a monthly basis. If it is particularly dirty, then it is important that you use high pressure hose while cleaning it. This will ensure that every part of it get cleaned, especially the difficult to reach areas such as narrow gaps.

Paint to Restore Furniture

If cleaning does not work, you can consider repainting all the pieces. No matter the furniture material, whether vinyl, wood or plastic, an appropriate paint is available at your local hardware or home improvement store. A couple of paint coats is one of the best ways to restore your dull or damaged outdoor furniture. You can even decide not to remove the old finish as this has no effect on the final brand new look. Once you choose your gloss and prepare the furniture, paint your way to a new, beautiful-looking set of outdoor patio furniture. Enjoy the new feel and atmosphere with confidence with friends and family.

Keeping your whole house looking nice while juggling a full schedule can be a real chore. If you need an extra hand, The Maids Medway can certainly help keep everything under control!
