How do I measure replacement outdoor cushions?
Measure the width, depth and thickness of the existing cushion or furniture seat. Note the cushion’s shape, corners, ties and whether the back and seat are separate. Bringing the original cushion to Leisure Depot can make it easier to compare fit and available options.
Are replacement cushions for outdoor furniture waterproof?
Most outdoor cushions are water-resistant rather than completely waterproof. Performance fabrics and outdoor foam are designed to handle moisture, but cushions should still be allowed to drain and dry after rain. Storing them during prolonged wet weather can extend their usable life.
Can Leisure Depot match cushions from an older patio set?
Matching options depend on the furniture brand, model, dimensions and available fabrics. Bring the original cushion or provide detailed measurements, photographs and any manufacturer information. An exact match may not always be available, but a compatible replacement may be possible.
What outdoor cushion fabric is best for Charleston’s climate?
Solution-dyed performance fabrics are a good choice for Charleston’s sun and humidity because they resist fading, moisture and mildew. No outdoor fabric is maintenance-free, so cushions should still be cleaned regularly and allowed to dry fully.
How can I help prevent mildew on outdoor cushions?
Brush away debris, clean spills promptly and stand wet cushions on their sides so air can circulate. Avoid covering or storing cushions while they are damp. During extended rainy periods, keep them in a dry and ventilated storage area.
