After a heavy storm, proper cleaning and maintenance of your bioclimatic pergola is essential to ensure its longevity and functionality. Here is a step-by-step guide:
Assess the damage: Before starting any maintenance work, assess the damage caused by the storm. Look for structural problems or broken components that require immediate attention.
Safety first: Ensure your safety by turning off all electrical components, such as lights or retractable roofs, if applicable.
Remove debris: leaves, branches and other items that may have accumulated on the pergola surface. This will prevent further damage during cleaning.
Cleaning the structure: Use a mild detergent mixed with water to clean the pergola structure. Avoid abrasive cleaners that may damage the finish. Gently scrub surfaces, including the frame, slats and supports. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Inspect and lubricate moving parts: Check the operation of all moving parts, such as grilles or retractable ceilings. Lubricate if necessary to ensure smooth operation.
Check for leaks: Inspect for any leaks in the roofing material. Repair any damaged areas to prevent water seepage.
Check for loose screws: Heavy storms can loosen screws and bolts. Tighten loose fasteners to ensure the stability of the pergola.
Regular maintenance: Establish a regular maintenance schedule, as indicated by the manufacturer, including cleaning and inspections, to prevent future problems and prolong the life of your bioclimatic pergola.
Maximise your space:
If you want to enjoy your pergola all year round, think about adding glass curtains. They will protect you from adverse weather conditions, but will also facilitate the conservation of the interior decoration, avoiding unnecessary transfers or storage. It is an efficient strategy to expand and make the most of your space in any season.
