Can natural rattan benches be repaired if individual strands break?
Natural rattan benches are durable and stylish, but over time, individual strands may break due to wear or weather exposure. The good news is that broken rattan strands can often be repaired with simple techniques. For minor breaks, you can use strong adhesive or epoxy to reattach the strand. If the damage is more extensive, carefully weaving in a new rattan strand can restore the bench’s integrity. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning and applying protective coatings, can prevent future breaks. With the right approach, your rattan bench can remain functional and beautiful for years. DIY repairs are cost-effective, but for severe damage, consulting a professional may be the best option.
