Preparing Outdoor Furniture for Spring and Summer
Covers, cushions, and material choices for patios across the Northeast.
Northeast winters are tough on teak, aluminum, and woven resin if pieces sit unprotected. Store cushions indoors and use breathable covers that shed rain without trapping moisture against frames.
Teak can weather to silver gray or stay honey toned with an annual light oiling. Powder-coated aluminum resists rust, making it ideal for dining sets near sprinklers and pool decks.
Before guests arrive, wash slings and mesh with mild detergent, tighten hardware, and inspect umbrella ribs for bent sections. Replace worn glides so chairs do not scrape stone or composite decking.
Everwood outdoor collections include care PDFs and replacement part SKUs. Visit us early in the season to test seat comfort and umbrella sizes against your actual patio layout.
