Guide to Refinishing Outdoor Furniture

The elements impact your outdoor furniture over the years. Whether it’s absorbing the UV rays from the sun or moisture from rain, wood surfaces are exposed to considerable wear and tear. Some people don’t mind having a more worn look to their furniture, but refinishing and restoration is essential to lengthen your furniture’s life span so you can make the most of it. You may already be familiar with the idea of refinishing but are unsure how to go about it, what materials to use, or how to get the look you want.

This is where our furniture restoration experts in Los Angeles come in. Our experts will start a refinishing project by cleaning your furniture with a nonabrasive wood cleaner to remove debris, mildew, and other stains that may damage the wood. With the wood thoroughly cleaned, we’ll carefully sand your furniture’s surfaces. This step removes any existing covering, such as oil or varnish, making your wood look fresh and new. It also allows us to open the wood’s grain, creating a strong basis for applying a new finish.

The finish we apply will depend on the look you want and your climate. We typically apply a sealer, which serves as a layer of protection for your wood against the elements and outdoor air. A simple wood oil can create a natural finish that many people like to have in their garden. Added protection against moisture can be provided with a varnish or water-based paint. These two options also give you the opportunity to customize your furniture’s color. We can perform refinishing patio furniture on-site or at our off-site location.

Maintenance Tips for Outdoor Furniture

You can prolong the periods between refinishing by maintaining your furniture well. One way to do this is to clean your furniture regularly to remove debris and dirt, which can contaminate and damage wood surfaces. You may also consider applying a coat or two of oil to your furniture to prevent it from drying out, which can result in cracking or deterioration of the wood’s strength. Keep in mind that choosing the right oil is important, and you can always consult our experts about this.

Another maintenance technique is to protect your furniture against the worst of the weather with a well-fitted furniture cover. Covers, such as those produced by Coverini, can significantly reduce the frequency of your need for Los Angeles furniture refinishing. The furniture cover will reduce your teak’s exposure to the sun’s rays and moisture, helping it look good for longer. Your cover can also guard against damage brought by animals or other causes.

You may also consider storage or moving your furniture regularly to help maintain it. Storing your furniture at times of the year when you don’t use it as much can reduce its exposure to the weather. If the sun shines into your yard only at certain times of the day, it can result in specific parts of your furniture getting exposed, which may cause uneven wear. To prevent this, you can move your pieces from time to time to even out their exposure.
