Warranty & Maintenance

The Hampton Rocking Bench is handmade and supplied with a 12 month manufacturer's warranty and a 20 year anti-rot guarantee with little or no maintenance. The pressure treatment leaves the wood with a temporary green tint. If left to weather, the wood will fade to a silvery grey colour; however you can change the colour straight away by staining the wood using Protek Timber Eco Shield, or it can be painted or stained after it has been allowed to weather for at least 3 months using a product compatible for use with pressure treated timber. This is a natural product made from wood that will include natural features like knots and veins through the grain. The wood will react to exposure to sunlight and changing moisture levels that can cause cracks or splits in the wood. These natural characteristics are due to the wood losing moisture during warm and dry seasons, during colder and wetter seasons the wood will uptake moisture again which will reduce these splits or cracks. This natural process will not affect the longevity nor structure of the product.
