Picture the scene, you’ve just finished work, the sun is still shining and it’s the time of year where temperatures are comfortable right up until bedtime. A long evening awaits and you can spend it stretched out on your garden sofa, where you can unwind from the intensity of the working week and recharge ready for tomorrow. The same applies at the weekend of course, where you can spend two full days enjoying your garden with your feet up on the sofa. It’s a rare treat, but if you don’t prepare for it by protecting your garden furniture, it is a treat you might be denied.
Rattan garden sofas are a popular investment now that we are attuned to spending money on garden furniture and trying to replicate the kind of luxury and comfort we might enjoy on holiday, in our own outdoor space. But any investment on this scale needs to be protected, otherwise we are not getting good value for money and we will need to replace our favourite garden sofa well ahead of time.
How the weather can affect your garden sofa
The size and shape of the typical Rattan garden sofa means we usually have to leave it outside over the autumn and winter months. Few people have the luxury of sufficient garage, shed or storage box space for an item as big as a garden sofa, so it is essential that you suitably protect it against the extremes of a typical UK winter.
Leaving a garden sofa exposed to wind, rain, sleet, snow and frost can damage its condition beyond repair. Most examples of garden furniture are well made in today’s market, but that doesn’t mean they can withstand exposure to extreme weather and means metal can rust, plastic can go brittle and break and wood can rot, warp and splinter. At the very least you might encounter colour fade, and however much you treat or repair your garden sofa, it never quite looks the same, and in some cases the structural integrity of the sofa might be compromised, and you can’t recover the same levels of comfort either. Protecting your Rattan garden sofa with a weatherproof cover, therefore, is the only thing to do.
