Care Instructions for Your Solid Wood Table – How to Keep It Beautiful for Life
A solid wood table is not an off-the-shelf piece of furniture. It is a piece of nature that comes to your home – and that is exactly why it needs special attention. Here we explain in detail and step by step how to care for your table, position it correctly, and protect it long-term from damage such as cracks, warping, or stains.
The following instructions apply to waxed, oiled, sealed (e.g., Teak-Shield) and lacquered surfaces. Because these surfaces are constructed differently, it is important to know how to treat each table optimally.
Why Does Solid Wood Need Care at All?
How does wood react in your home?
Solid wood is alive – even after processing. This means: it absorbs moisture, releases it, and reacts to temperature fluctuations. This is exactly what gives the material its beauty but can cause problems in the wrong environment.
Wood is particularly sensitive to:
- too dry air
- too high or direct heat
- strong temperature fluctuations
- intense sunlight
You might know it from grandma’s old wooden doors: in summer they stuck, in winter they closed more easily. This basic principle also applies to your solid wood table, just in a more elegant form.
What Are the Ideal Values for Your Indoor Climate?
To keep your table stable in the long term, we recommend a balanced indoor climate:
- Room temperature: approximately 18–22 °C
- Humidity: approximately 45–60 %
Within this range, the wood will still work but within a normal, non-critical scope. Anything significantly warmer, colder, or drier causes unnecessary stress to the wood.
How Do You Properly Care for Oiled, Waxed, or Sealed Surfaces?
What does an “open-pored” surface mean for your daily life?
Oiled, waxed, or sealed surfaces are open-pored. This means:
- The wood can continue to absorb and release moisture.
- The surface feels warm, natural, and lively.
- Small damages can often be repaired by yourself with proper care.
This openness is exactly why you need to be a bit more attentive when caring for these surfaces compared to a fully sealed lacquered surface.
How do you clean oiled or waxed surfaces in daily life?
Daily and regular cleaning is uncomplicated if you follow a few basic rules:
- Wipe the table with a soft cotton cloth.
- Use a slightly damp, never dripping wet cloth.
- Remove dust regularly to prevent fine scratches from dirt particles.
- Immediately absorb spilled liquids so nothing can penetrate the wood.
- Do not use caustic or acidic cleaning agents.
Which cleaners should you definitely avoid?
- Microfiber cloths with coarse, abrasive texture
- Abrasive cleaners and scouring sponges
- Glass cleaners or cleaners containing alcohol
- Cleaners with solvents or strong surfactants
- “All-purpose cleaners” that strongly degrease fats and oils
How often do you need to re-treat – and how do you proceed?
Depending on use, we recommend re-oiling or re-waxing your table approximately every 6–18 months. If the table is used very intensively (e.g., as a family dining table), a shorter interval may be advisable.
Here is the ideal procedure for re-treatment:
- Thoroughly clean the table surface from dust and dirt and let it dry completely.
- Apply a suitable wood oil or furniture wax thinly and evenly with a soft cloth.
- Let the care product soak in for a few minutes.
- Carefully remove excess oil or wax with a fresh cotton cloth.
- Let the surface dry well for several hours, ideally overnight.
How Do You Properly Care for a Lacquered Solid Wood Table?
A lacquered surface is very easy to care for in daily life if you observe these points:
- Use a soft, slightly damp cloth for cleaning.
- Wipe afterwards with a dry cloth to avoid water spots.
- Avoid sharp cleaning agents, solvents, or abrasive products.
What should you keep in mind with a lacquered table?
Lacquer provides good protection – but not against everything. You should especially keep the following points in mind:
- Never place hot pots, pans, or casserole dishes on the table without a coaster.
- Do not drag heavy or rough objects across the surface; always lift them.
- Always use a cutting board when cutting.
What Is the Ideal Location for Your Solid Wood Table?
Where should your table definitely not be placed?
Your new table prefers a somewhat calmer environment. A new setting can stress the wood – especially if there are temperature differences on and within the solid wood top. In all these places, the wood is exposed to strong climate fluctuations:
- Direct sunlight: Heats the surface strongly, dries it out, and can promote cracks (e.g., conservatory, south-facing side).
- Fireplaces and radiators: Cause uneven warming and dryness. Uneven tensions often lead to cracks.
- Underfloor heating: Allows very warm air to rise directly to the underside and creates tensions that can cause cracks.
- Dry winter air: Extracts moisture and causes the wood to shrink.
What to Do If Something Happens Anyway?
The wood used for our tables has been carefully dried and seasoned. Usually, nothing will happen, but the above-mentioned conditions can lead to problems.
Why are such damages not covered by warranty?
Such damage does not occur due to a defect in the product, but rather due to environmental influences that we as manufacturer or retailer cannot control. The wood simply reacts naturally to unnatural conditions.
Therefore, cracks caused by incorrect indoor climate, heat, dryness, or extreme location conditions are not considered a warranty case.
How do you best protect your table permanently?
- Maintain humidity levels between 45–60%.
- Avoid direct sunlight on the tabletop.
- Do not place the table directly next to fireplaces, stoves, or strong radiators.
- Avoid using underfloor heating beneath your table.
- Use coasters, placemats, and felt pads in everyday use.
- Regularly care for the surface with suitable products.
We won’t leave you alone!
Even with the best care, wood remains a natural product. If you discover cracks, stains, or other damage, just contact us. We will assist you with recommendations for care products, repair kits, and tips on location. This way, you can enjoy your solid wood table for a long time – whether it is waxed, oiled, or lacquered.
