Maintenance Tips

• Apply a Protective Sealant Annually – Use a high-quality, water-repellent wood sealant to protect against moisture, UV damage, and cracking.

• Regular Cleaning – Wash with mild soap and water to remove dirt, debris, and mildew. Avoid pressure washing to prevent damage to the wood fibers.

• Inspect & Tighten Hardware – Periodically check screws and fasteners to ensure stability and prevent loosening.

• Sand Rough Areas – Lightly sand any splintered or rough spots with fine-grit sandpaper to maintain a smooth, polished finish.

• Ensure Proper Drainage – Place the bridge on well-drained ground to prevent standing water from causing wood decay.

• Monitor for Pests – Cedar is naturally resistant to insects, but occasional inspections for wood-boring pests help ensure longevity.

• Reapply Stain or Paint as Needed – Refresh the finish every 2-3 years to maintain its beauty and structural integrity.

• Protect During Harsh Weather – If possible, use a cover or relocate the bridge to a sheltered area during extreme weather conditions.
