A Garden Table That Can Survive Anything? Here’s the Proof

When it comes to outdoor furniture, most people want something that looks good and lasts. But how many garden tables can truly take on the British weather without warping, fading or falling apart after one season?

At Luxus Home & Garden, we don’t just claim our teak garden tables are tough. We prove it. Here’s a closer look at why our tables are some of the most durable outdoor tables on the market and exactly what they’re made to withstand.

Built for All Weather, All Year Round

British gardens see everything from blistering sunshine to surprise sleet. That’s why our teak tables are designed with durability in mind. You don’t have to drag your furniture indoors when the weather turns.

Rain? Teak’s dense grain and natural oils make it water-resistant. Moisture won’t seep in or cause the wood to swell and crack.

Snow and frost? Even freezing conditions can’t split properly dried teak.

Sun? UV rays may bleach cheaper wood. Teak develops a dignified silver-grey patina. You can also maintain the golden finish with teak oil.

These are weatherproof garden sets you can leave outside all year with confidence.

The Science Behind Our Teak

Not all wood is created equal. Luxus Home & Garden uses Grade A, sustainably sourced teak, the strongest and most stable cut from the heart of the tree. Here’s why it matters:

• High oil content naturally repels water, insects and fungi.
• Tight grain increases resistance to cracking and warping.
• Low shrinkage maintains shape even with constant weather changes.

Every piece of wood we use is SVLK-certified, meaning it’s sourced responsibly from legal, sustainable forests.

Load-Bearing Strength You Can Count On

Our garden tables don’t just survive the weather. They can also handle the weight of real-life use.

• Hosting a BBQ for 12 guests? No problem.
• Decorating your patio with planters and parasols? It won’t budge.
• Family dinners, kids’ craft projects or heavy serving platters? These tables are made for it.

Take the 2-3m Oval Extending Teak Table. With a 4cm thick top and solid mortise and tenon joints, it's engineered to be both elegant and strong.

Stress-Tested for Real Gardens

We’ve tested our furniture in conditions that mimic real-life British gardens and more. Here’s what our tables have withstood:

• Continuous water spray for 48 hours to simulate rain
• UV light exposure for up to 6 weeks to mimic long summer days
• Weight loads of over 150kg to assess flex and joint durability

What happened? Nothing. The joints held. The grain didn’t crack. The finish remained intact.

That’s the kind of performance you can expect from furniture that lasts.

Low Maintenance, High Payoff

While teak is built to survive, it doesn’t ask much in return. Unlike softwoods that demand constant staining or protective treatments, teak practically takes care of itself.

• Want the classic silver-grey look? Just leave it alone.
• Prefer to preserve the honey-gold colour? A quick coat of teak oil once or twice a year does the job.
• See a mark or stain? A light sanding or wipe with a teak cleaner restores the finish.

This isn’t just durable outdoor furniture. It’s also low-hassle, perfect for busy homes and laid-back outdoor living.

At Luxus Home & Garden, every table is more than just a beautiful centrepiece. It’s a long-term investment in teak garden sets that don’t need replacing every few years.

Whether you're shopping for a statement dining table or a space-saving folding design, you’ll find strength, style and sustainability at the heart of everything we offer.

FAQs: Teak Garden Table Durability

• Is teak better than other woods for outdoor furniture?
  Yes. Teak is one of the most durable hardwoods in the world. Its high oil content protects against moisture, pests and temperature changes without the need for ongoing treatments.
• Can teak furniture really be left outside all year?
  It can. While covering it in extreme conditions is helpful, our teak tables are built to endure rain, frost, snow and sun.
• Will the wood split or crack over time?
  Unlike softer woods, teak is highly resistant to splitting. With proper construction and natural weathering, it retains its structural integrity for years.
• Do teak tables fade in the sun?
  Teak naturally develops a silver-grey patina over time. This doesn’t affect performance. If you prefer to keep the golden colour, you can apply teak oil to protect the surface.
• How heavy are your teak tables?
  They’re solid. Our 2-3m extending tables, for example, are weighty enough to stay put in strong winds but still manageable to move with two people when needed.
