A common misconception is that homeowners only work on their garden throughout the summer, however, most furniture and exterior accessories need protection from the elements that are synonymous with the British autumn.

Sadolin’s Technical Consultant, Matthew Brown, comments on the importance of carefully preparing your garden for the change in season:

“Much of the preparation and organisation starts in the autumn and winter months. If any bare timber is exposed, then this will not be protected over the winter. The problem will quickly get much worse allowing unwanted moisture to get into the timber, leading to twisting, warping and splitting. This also exposes the wood to unwanted mould/fungal growth. Remember the undersides of sills, bottoms and tops of exterior doors and all end grains. These are all particularly vulnerable areas for moisture to get in. End grains are 100 times thirstier than the face grain you decorate.”
