Frequently asked questions

• Do I need a left-hand or right-hand corner sofa set?

  ---

  Imagine sitting in the corner where both sides meet looking out at the view; if the left-hand side needs to be longer, then we would suggest purchasing the left-hand version and if the right-hand side needs to be longer we would suggest purchasing the right-hand version. 

• What sets require assembly?

  ---

  Most of our garden sets come fully assembled, however, some of our garden furniture sets do require some assembly. For example, all our dining chairs come fully assembled, but our dining tables may require some assembly. Details of this can be found on the individual product pages.

• How to clip our modular sofas together?

  ---

  The problem many people have with modular furniture is that because it can be moved around it is often not secured in one place, which is where our handy clips come in.

  These clips go on the underneath of your furniture to hold the pieces together and stop them from moving about. They are very easy to attach and just push onto the underside of the furniture where you want the pieces to join. They are also very easy to slide back off should you want to rearrange the furniture once more. 

  Step 1: Turn the furniture pieces you wish to clip together onto their side, so that you can see the underside and framework of the furniture.

  Step 2: Ensure the pieces are aligned and touching together. Hold against each other with one hand if needs be.

  Step 3: Take the clip and, making sure it wraps around both pieces, push gently until the flat surface of the clip is pressed against the furniture.

  
  Making sure the flat surface of the clip is pressed right against the furniture is important so that your furniture doesn’t become uneven and wobble.

• How should I store my cushions?

  ---

  During heavy rainfall, it is strongly recommended that the cushions are either brought inside or stored in a 100% waterproof storage box.

  After the summer, never leave the cushions on the set as the cushions will become damp due to condensation build-up.

  If cushions are left outside during heavy rainfall and damp conditions, the cushions will soon become soaked.

• How should I clean my garden furniture?

  ---

  You spend a portion of your week cleaning the interior of your house, so why not spend some time outside this week and get your garden furniture looking squeaky clean? 

   

  Rattan Furniture 

  Step One: Fill a bowl with warm water and add a few drops of dish detergent, stirring until bubbles form on the surface of the water.

  Step Two: Dip a soft cloth carefully into the bubbles only, not the water, and then wipe the rattan with the bubbles. This will clean the rattan without over-saturating it.

  Step Three: Use a soft bristle brush (a toothbrush works well) to clean the crevices

   

  Aluminium furniture 

  Step One: Fill a bowl with warm water and add a few drops of dish detergent

  Step Two: Dip a soft cloth in the water, and then wipe the frame. This will clean the aluminium without over-saturating it.

  Do not use a bristle brush as this will scratch the aluminium. 

   

  Fabric Furniture

  150ml of bleach

  40ml of mild soap

  2 litres of water

   

  Step One: Apply the solution to the fabric and clean with a soft-bristle brush.

  Step Two: Allow the mixture to soak into the fabric for 15 minutes then rinse thoroughly until all soap residue is removed.

  Step Three: Simply allow to dry and you will never know the mess was there.
