What is the policy for refurbishing or restoring an older Landscape Square table?

Revitalizing an older Landscape Square table requires a clear policy to ensure structural integrity and aesthetic renewal are achieved. The primary principle is assessment first: thoroughly inspect the table for major cracks, spalling, or instability. Minor surface wear is acceptable for refurbishment, but significant structural damage may necessitate professional repair or replacement.

The core refurbishment policy involves a multi-step process. Begin with a deep clean using a mild detergent and a stiff brush to remove dirt and biological growth. For stain removal, a approved concrete cleaner is recommended. Light sanding with medium-grit paper follows to smooth rough areas and prepare the surface. The most critical step is the application of a high-quality, UV-resistant concrete sealer or a specialized outdoor paint. This protective layer is non-negotiable for weatherproofing and color rejuvenation.

Safety is paramount. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment like gloves, goggles, and a dust mask during cleaning and sanding. Furthermore, the policy emphasizes using manufacturer-recommended products where possible and testing any cleaner or finish on a small, inconspicuous area first. The goal is not to make the table look brand new, but to restore its functionality and character while extending its lifespan for more seasons of outdoor enjoyment.
