Ideal for almost everything, from cozy chats in the summer to jolly barbecues or quiet nights alone, garden benches come with many uses. They can be costly, however, and time-consuming to shop around for the ideal bench and finally get it into your garden. Here are some of the things you should consider before purchasing a bench for your garden.
Durability and strength
One of the benefits of concrete benches is that they are incredibly durable, and unlike other materials such as wood which tends to rot in bad weather, you'll find that concrete is almost never damaged. If you don't like the appearance of an all-concrete bench in your garden, you can opt for a style which is a combination of concrete and another material. For example, you can buy garden benches which have a concrete frame and then are covered with a wooden seat or other material. Likewise, you can also find wooden frames which have a concrete top.
Customising the bench
If splashing out on a luxury garden bench just isn't an option for you at the moment, buy a plain concrete bench and use your own creativity and initiative to make it into your perfect piece of furniture. Looking at the existing furniture in your garden is a good way to decide what colors and themes you wish to choose for the bench. You can buy covers for a concrete bench and take it indoors when not in use in order to avoid any damage throughout the night.
Building it in
While you can have a stand alone concrete bench in the garden if you wish, you can also choose to build the benches into your garden. This means that you can create one or more areas around your garden for you and other people to sit down. This is ideal if you don't have a patio area on which to place a furniture set, but you still want some outdoor seating. When choosing where to place the concrete benches, choose areas which are well-lit but which won't hinder the sun from reaching any plants. Take exact measurements of the area you wish to install a concrete bench, as you will likely want it to extend all along one side, so you'll need to order a bench which is the exact size.
Patterns and paint
You might want a concrete bench for its durability and other benefits, yet you're not so keen on the idea of plain grey garden furniture. Even if you don't want to add cushions and covers to the bench, it's possible to buy painted or patterned concrete benches. This is a great way to add the splash of color that you want to the furniture, particularly if your garden lacks colorful flowers and other plants. Many people are put off the idea of concrete benches just by hearing about it, but some of the variations available on the market are the perfect bright addition to your garden that you're looking for.
