Furniture covers fitted properly - not just thrown over. Secured tight against Devon weather so they actually protect your garden furniture instead of flapping off into the neighbour's garden.
### Why Bother Fitting Covers Properly?
Because **a loose cover is worse than no cover**. It flaps in the wind, rubs the paint off, collects puddles of water, and usually ends up in someone's tree after the first storm.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Properly fitted covers last years longer. Loose covers self-destruct in one windy winter.

What to Expect
### Step 1: Position & Check I make sure the cover is positioned correctly for your specific furniture and check all the straps/ties are in good condition. ### Step 2: Secure & Tension All fasteners get used properly - straps buckled, ties knotted, tensioned so the cover sits snug but not stretched. ### Step 3: Final Check Quick check that water will drain off (not pool), air can circulate, and nothing's going to flap in the wind.

Good to Know
> 🎨 **Doing multiple items?** Book them all for one visit - I'm already there so it's more cost-effective. **Check your covers regularly** - after storms, give them a quick check. A strap that's come loose early in winter can mean a shredded cover by spring. **Older Exeter properties?** If your garden furniture is stored in an old courtyard or walled area, let me know - sometimes these need different securing methods due to wind tunnels.
Frequently Asked Questions about Furniture cover fitting in Sidmouth
Why not just throw a cover over myself?
You can - but loose covers flap in Devon's wind, rub paint off, collect water in puddles, and often end up in next door's garden. Properly fitted means tied down, tensioned right, and actually doing the job.
What's involved in fitting a cover properly?
I make sure it's positioned right, all straps/ties are used correctly, drainage points aren't blocked, and it's tensioned so it won't flap or collect water. Takes 20-30 minutes but makes all the difference.
Do I need to provide the cover?
Yes - this service is for fitting covers you already have. If you need advice on what cover to buy for your furniture, I'm happy to help with that too.
Can you do multiple pieces of furniture?
Absolutely. If you've got a set of garden furniture to cover up for winter, we can do them all in one visit. Price depends on how many pieces.
Is this just a winter thing?
Mainly yes - most people want garden furniture covered from October to March. But if you're going away for a while in summer, or have furniture you don't use often, covering it properly makes sense year-round.
