A common query that many visitors have that visit this site is whether it is to possible to waterpoof a gazebo?

The simple answer is yes! If you’ve not got a waterproof gazebo (read our post), you need a silicon based waterproofing product such as Fabsil. Fabsil is a waterproofing/UV protection treatment that can be applied to any type of materials for outdoor use, eg. tents, cusions, parasols, shades and of course gazebos. The waterpoofing product from Fabsil comes in two types; an areosol spray or in larger tins that can be ‘painted’ onto fabric.

While we’ve not tried the aerosol version here at Garden Gazebos, reiviews on the internet advise that the spray on product is much less effective than the ‘paint’ on version, and thats the version we’d recommend.

Fabsil comes in a varity of quanitities;

• Fabsil 2.5 litre ‘paint on’ - £18.99 | more info
• Fabsil 5 litre ‘paint on’ – £29.99 | more info
• Fabsil 400ml spray on – £5.99 | more info
• Fabsil 600ml spray on – £7.99 | more info

Let us know what if Fabsil has been successful for you in waterproofing your gazebo in the comments!

We’ve just added Focus DIY to our ever growing list of retailers. One of their products is this excellent 6×3 Party Gazebo. The Gazebo is waterproof so is great for BBQs and other outdoor events where there’s the chance of bad weather.

The gazebo is steel framed and comes with side panels to give extra protection against any unexpected british weather!

Available now from Focus for only £79.99 – click here for further information or here to see our full range of party gazebos.

I just come across these on Amazon and I think they’re a great idea if you don’t have a grass/earth area to peg in your gazebo or want to erect a gazebo on a patio or deck, perhaps next to a house.

Basically these are weights that sit around the legs of the gazebo to stop it blowing away. The weights are a really clever design; they a

re two semi-circular ‘barrels’ that you fill with water and then clamp around each leg of your gazebo.

The weights come in a pack of 4 and are available now from Amazon for £21.99 – click here for further information.
