Choosing wood that lasts outdoors
Teak carries natural oils and handles sun, moisture and termites well, which makes it a natural fit for seaside work. Other hardwoods are options too, depending on your budget and the coating system you choose.
Popular outdoor pieces
Poolside benches and daybeds · balcony tables and chairs · stools · garden furniture sets — coordinated with outdoor work, resorts and villas.
Keeping it in good shape
Re-coat to protect the timber on a regular cycle · avoid letting water pool on surfaces · we deliver to resorts on Koh Samui and across upper southern Thailand, and project orders further afield can go by chartered truck (delivery).
