FAQs
How many people are needed to assemble the arbour?
At least two people are required to safely handle the large panels and roof section during assembly.
Do I need to treat the wood immediately?
The timber is pressure-treated, which provides significant protection against rot. However, adding a decorative stain can help maintain the appearance.
Can the arbour be placed directly on grass?
It is not recommended. Placing the timber directly on grass can lead to moisture absorption and premature rot. A solid base like slabs or gravel is preferred.
What tools are required for assembly?
Standard DIY tools including a screwdriver, a mallet, and a spirit level are usually required.
Is the roof waterproof?
The apex roof is designed to shed water efficiently, keeping the seating area dry during normal rainfall.
What is the weight capacity of the seat?
The bench is designed to support the average weight of three adults comfortably.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty aligning panels during assembly
Ensure the foundation is perfectly level; use a spirit level to check before securing fasteners.
Wood appears dry or weathered after one season
Apply a fresh coat of suitable wood preservative or exterior-grade timber stain.
Structure wobbles after assembly
Double-check that all bolts and screws are tightened securely and ensure the base is not sitting on uneven ground.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The arbour is supplied flat-packed and requires assembly. It is highly recommended to have two people present during construction to safely lift and align the roof and side panels. Ensure the unit is installed on a solid, level foundation such as a patio or decking to prevent structural warping.
Compatibility: Its neutral brown tone makes it highly compatible with most garden themes, from modern minimalist courtyards to traditional cottage gardens.
Care: Since the wood is pressure-treated, it is naturally protected against the elements; however, for long-term preservation, apply a high-quality timber preservative or garden wood stain every one to two years. Keep the area around the base free of heavy vegetation to maintain airflow and prevent moisture buildup at the floor level.
