Ten Things to Do to Prepare Your Patio or Deck for Fall

Store or Cover Outdoor Furniture

As summer gives way to fall, it’s time to protect your outdoor furniture from the elements. If you have the storage space, consider moving patio furniture to a garage or shed. Or if you prefer, cover those items with a lightweight tarp.

Of course, if you live in an area with warmer fall temperatures, you may well want to leave your furniture out for a bit longer, especially if you enjoy spending time around a fire pit.
