URBAN OUTDOOR FURNITURE

To prevent outdoor furniture from staining your deck, start by using protective pads or cups under all furniture legs. These create a barrier that stops moisture and dirt from transferring to the deck surface. Choose felt, rubber, or plastic pads specifically designed for outdoor use. Regularly move your furniture to avoid permanent discoloration and allow the deck to weather evenly. Clean both your furniture bottoms and deck surface frequently to remove accumulated debris. For added protection, apply a high-quality sealant or stain to your deck, which creates a resistant surface. Consider using lightweight furniture or rotating different pieces to minimize pressure marks. During wet seasons, elevate furniture slightly to improve airflow and prevent moisture traps. Always wipe up spills immediately and avoid placing freshly painted or treated furniture directly on the deck without protection. These simple practices will help maintain your deck's appearance and longevity.
