Patio furniture can transform your backyard into a cozy retreat, but to keep it looking its best, regular maintenance is essential. Whether you’ve invested in a high-quality outdoor furniture set or have just added a new piece to your collection, protecting your furniture from the elements will ensure it lasts for years.

It’s a good practice to clean your patio furniture regularly, Outdoor furniture is constantly exposed to dust, dirt, and other various weather conditions, which can take a toll on its appearance. To keep your furniture in top shape. Wipe down surfaces with a sponge or soft nonabrasive cloth to remove stubborn dirt. Wash or spray down the frames with clear water or a mild soap and water solution to remove dust, pollen, chemicals, salt water, dirt, etc. Do not use abrasive cleaners or power washers. 

Bleach Cleaning Solution For polyester vinyl coated fabrics and cushions it is recommended to use a simple cleaning solution of 1 tablespoon of household bleach, and one gallon of water. Then, clean the fabric using a sponge or soft cloth saturated in the solution. Promptly rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow it to air dry. Appling a coat of clear liquid car wax to the metal frames at least once a year will also help to maintain and protect the furniture’s paint finish.

Store Patio Furniture During the Off-Season If you live in an area with extreme winter weather, consider storing your outdoor furniture indoors during the off-season. This is especially important for materials like wood and wicker that can crack or warp in freezing temperatures. For larger items that can’t be moved indoors, make sure to use heavy-duty covers and secure them well. For example, Homecrest Urban is built to withstand various weather conditions, but taking extra precautions can ensure it stays in excellent longevity year after year.

Perform Regular Maintenance Regular

Regular maintenance goes a long way in preserving the beauty and functionality of your outdoor furniture. Check for any loose screws or bolts and tighten them as needed. For wooden furniture, consider applying a protective sealant or varnish to guard against moisture and UV damage. If you own pieces from the Homecrest Urban Outdoor Collection, you’ll find that the minimal upkeep required is one of its many advantages. The collection's high-quality materials are designed to endure, but a little care can make a big difference.

Consider Furniture Placement

Instead, try to keep your furniture on a deck or patio, and if possible, under a shaded area.

By placing your furniture strategically, you can further protect your investment.
