If you own classically beautiful, expensive patio or pool furniture but it is about ten to fifteen years old, most likely the strapping or slings are starting to become worn, broken, frayed or damaged.  The question is, should you replace or repair?  If your pool or patio furniture is very high-end, the best use of your money might be to repair or replace this furniture.  If your investment needs some maintenance, then you need a professional to help you restore it to its former beauty.

 Not only will this plan restore your patio furniture, it will save you money.  It’s far more expensive to replace high-end pool and patio furniture that was originally built to last for generations than it is to restore it.   In addition, even if you wanted to replace this furniture, it would be difficult, if not impossible to find comparable quality anywhere, at any price.  Finally, you would be making a greener choice by repairing, rather than buying new, because you’d be recycling your old furniture.

How does one find a company or individual to do the job correctly for you?  First you need to look for a company that has the capacity to do the job, not just a company that will provide you with the replacement parts.  Find a company that can work with wrought iron, grinding, sand blasting, and all types of strap and sling repair.  Then make sure they are members of professional associations, certifying their expertise in these areas.  Some companies will even offer a guarantee on their work and provide you with maintenance and care instructions to keep it looking brand new.

 The replacement slings themselves can be chosen to match most of the major manufacturers of patio furniture, like Winston, Woodard, Brown Jordan, Tropitone,  Molla, Agio, Mallin and many more.  There is a multitude of fabrics offering a vast selection of colors and designs. These replacement slings are custom made and sewn with thread that has a lifetime warranty.

 Sling patio furniture has been a best selling style for retailers over the past decade.  The average “lifespan” of a sling is 8 – 10 years.  The frames and the original powdercoating have lots more life. By simply installing new replacement slings, one can rejuvenate the pool or patio for a fraction of the cost of new.

 Sling furniture is very attractive and comfortable. Everybody loves to relax on the patio in a nice comfortable sling chair.  Repair yours and continue to enjoy relaxing evenings out on your patio or beside your pool.
