Research Reveals Nine in 10 Homeowners Want to Dine ‘Al Fresco’ This Summer
Nine in 10 surveyed homeowners prefer dining al fresco, and 54.55% want an outdoor kitchen as patios need postwinter repairs.
New research from Thompson reveals over half of Brits aspire to have an outdoor kitchen this summer, reflecting growing interest in outdoor dining as warmer months approach.
Whilst BBQs are most commonly owned at 84.6%, pizza ovens are rising at 27.4%, marking a clear shift towards a Mediterranean summer cooking style.
Nearly 60 per cent of surveyed homeowners report their outdoor spaces require maintenance to remove algae and dirt accumulated during harsh winter conditions.
Stuart Ruffles, product marketing assistant from Thompson, advises applying cleaner, scrubbing for 15 minutes, then rinsing away the suds with a hose.
For protection against oil and grease, homeowners can apply Thompson One Coat Patio and Block Paving Seal, which resists algae growth and is developed for ease.
