  • How do you fix cracked outdoor furniture?

    To fix cracked outdoor furniture, start by cleaning the surface of the furniture to remove any dirt or debris. 

    Assess the severity of the crack; for small cracks, you can use waterproof wood glue to join the pieces together. 


    Apply the glue evenly along the crack and firmly press the pieces together. 

    Wipe off any excess glue and let it dry according to the manufacturer's instructions. 


    For larger cracks, you may need to reinforce the repair with screws or dowels. Sand the area smooth and finish with a suitable outdoor paint or stain to protect the repaired furniture from further damage.

  • How do you restore weathered outdoor furniture?

    To restore weathered outdoor furniture, begin by cleaning the surfaces thoroughly using mild detergent and water. 


    Scrub off any dirt, grime, or mould using a soft brush. Next, assess the extent of damage, such as chipped paint or faded finishes. 


    Repair any broken or damaged parts, such as loose joints or cracked wood, using suitable adhesive or replacement pieces. 


    Sand the surfaces to remove any roughness or splinters. Apply a suitable outdoor furniture stain or protective finish to rejuvenate the appearance and protect against weathering. Finally, regularly maintain and clean the furniture to prolong its restored condition.

  • What is the difference between furniture restoration and refinishing?

    Furniture restoration and refinishing are distinct processes. 

    Restoration involves repairing and preserving the original structure and integrity of a piece of furniture. It typically includes tasks like fixing loose joints, replacing worn-out components, and matching the original finish. 


    On the other hand, refinishing focuses on changing or enhancing the appearance of furniture by stripping off the existing finish and applying a new one. 


    It allows for colour changes, different stains, or varnishes. Both restoration and refinishing can breathe new life into furniture, but restoration emphasizes maintaining the historical or sentimental value, while refinishing prioritizes aesthetic customisation.
