Preparing Your Garden and Home for Winter: November To-Do List

November is the last real opportunity to tackle winter chores in the garden and around the house. Moisture, cold, and snow can quickly shorten the lifespan of your garden furniture, so it is worth dedicating a few hours to preparation. We have put together a checklist for you to easily tick off.

1. Protect your garden furniture

The easiest way to protect your tables, chairs, and sets is with a suitable cover. Before covering, clean and completely dry the furniture, then secure the cover with ties or rings so the wind doesn't blow it away. When choosing, ensure the dimensions are slightly larger than the furniture itself.

2. Stock up on firewood

Dry firewood is the foundation of a warm home if you heat with a fireplace or stove. Store it in an airy place, raised off the ground, and protect it from rain. A firewood rack helps with this, and it can also serve as a decorative element next to your fireplace indoors.

3. Make the most of your fireplace heat

A heat-powered fireplace fan helps distribute warm air throughout the room without using electricity. Fireplace screens are also an interesting addition for modern homes, helping to create a cozy nook.

November Checklist

  • Clean and cover your garden furniture.
  • Store away garden cushions and equipment that could be damaged by frost.
  • Check your firewood supply and store it in a dry place.
  • Inspect your chimney and fireplace before the heating season.
