Timber Conservatories Oxfordshire

Timber conservatories can last a lifetime with proper maintenance and care. This includes staining and potentially applying polyurethane as needed, depending on the amount of rainfall you receive. Keep in mind that keeping a timber conservatory in good condition can improve your house value and ensure that you enjoy your living space for decades.

Good question! This can depend on whether or not you’re looking for a ‘weathered’ timber conservatory. However, if you are looking to maintain the colour and vibrancy, we think there are a few key steps to maintaining your timber conservatory:

1. Attend to the guttering every year.

The best maintenance is frequent maintenance. But this doesn’t have to be exhaustive. Make sure that you’re keeping up with the guttering and not allowing things to build up.

2. Re-coat every few years.

With regular re-coats, you can ensure that your timber conservatory stays watertight and weather resistant. Simply do a little maintenance once a year or every three years to protect the wood and provide regular maintenance. Certain woods, like oak, will need to be recoated more regularly than others.

3. Rub down with fine wire wool & refinish every few years.

If you don’t want a weathered appearance, this is the most important part of maintaining your timber conservatory. Eventually, you, or someone you hire, can rub down the timber, re-stain, and re-coat the wood to give it a healthy and natural appearance.
