Q&A

Maintenance Tips

• Seal Immediately (Unfinished Wood): If your bench is unfinished, apply exterior stain or wood sealer right away to protect against moisture, cracking, and UV damage—cedar should never be left raw outdoors.
• Regular Cleaning: Wash with mild soap + water and a soft brush to remove dirt, pollen, and mildew buildup—avoid pressure washing.
• Re-Seal Every 1–2 Years: Reapply protective stain or sealant to maintain color, prevent graying, and extend lifespan.
• Check Hardware & Joints: Periodically tighten bolts and inspect structural joints to ensure stability and safe seating.
• Moisture Control: Keep the bench on well-drained ground to avoid standing water that accelerates wood wear.
• UV Protection Tip: Cedar naturally weathers to a gray tone; sealing helps preserve its warm natural finish longer.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach or strong cleaners, as they can damage wood fibers and protective coatings.
• Seasonal Care: Before heavy rain or winter, clean thoroughly and apply a fresh protective coat for best durability.
