Clean and protect garden furniture

Before you pack your garden furniture away in the shed or garage, clean and protect it now, so it’s ready and raring to go again in spring. Begin by giving it a thorough clean using warm, soapy water, or a pressure washer on a low setting. Once dry, give wooden furniture a coat of protective furniture oil to nourish the timber and protect it from UV and water damage. If you don’t have room to put metal or rattan garden furniture away in your shed, invest in a set of weatherproof covers to protect them from the elements.
