- We are big fans of fabric patio chairs. They dry super quick, they clean easy, and most importantly, they are comfy, but it is only a matter of time before the wear and tear gets the best of them and they rip apart. We hope this DIY Patio Chair Repair helps you save your chairs while keeping the cost down as well.
Materials Used:
1x4 lumber x3
#14 1-¼ in screws x20 (we actually used #8 in the video, but the #14 screws seem to be more readily available)
bit.ly/Hillman...
Cabot Wood Stain
bit.ly/CabotWo...
Minwax Fast-Drying Polyurethane Clear Gloss
bit.ly/MinwaxP...
Tools Used:
Craftsman 20v 7 ¼” Mitre Saw
bit.ly/Craftsm...
Craftsman 20v Impact Driver with Nut Adapter
bit.ly/Craftsm...
Ryobi 18v Power Drill with Drill Bit
bit.ly/Ryobi18...
Polyester Flat 2 in. Paint Brush
bit.ly/Polyest...
Steps to Get the Job Done:
Measure the entire width of the seat of the chair
Cut 5 pieces of that length from the 1x4 lumber
Under the seat, remove the existing screws from each side to get rid of the fabric
Lock boards in place with quick grips
Pre-drill a hole at the center of each board
Screw each board into place
Apply 2 coats of stain, allowing the first coat to dry before applying the second
Apply 2 coats of polyurethane, allowing the first coat to dry before applying the second
This is a quick 20 min job per chair. The wood stain and polyurethane of course take longer simply because you have to allow for drying time, but the repair portion is a pretty quick job.

Very well explained. Showing us the wood and each tool. Slow and thorough. Sometimes people who do DIY easily forget how uninformed the beginner is. I hope you do more videos in the DIY area. Thank You.
Lynn, so glad you found the video helpful. We will do more like this for sure. Thank you for watching and commenting!😎👍
Nice! I was looking at other videos on how to replace the fabric. Your video with the wood is just easier to fix and looks so much better….especially with the stain added. It will surely last a lot longer than the cloth replacement! Great video that didn’t waste my time with extra talking about nothing!! Thanks man.
Glad you found this video useful! Thanks for watching and commenting!😎👍

I don’t have a Mitre Saw but I have a Circular Saw. That will still work right?
List Builder Academy, yes, you are absolutely correct, a circular saw will still work, just make sure to keep your cuts straight. It’s not a long cut so as long as you are paying attention, it shouldn’t be a problem. Please let us know if you have any other questions and thanks for commenting!😎👍
So you’re drilling new holes in the aluminum or are those existing holes and just the wood is getting new holes? Thanks!
Erinn, the short answer is yes, we did pre-drill through both the wood and the metal. We used self tapping screws so we could easily go through both the wood and the light weight aluminum without having to pre-drill, but we decided to pre-drill the wood to avoid splitting it since the holes were so close to edge of the wood. Please let us know if this made sense or if you have any other questions. Thanks for watching and commenting!😎👍
@@Tools4Guys thank you for such a quick response! This will be a significant savings for us. Looking forward to trying it.
You are so welcome, glad we could help and let us know if you have any other questions. Would love to see some before and after pics, if you are ok with that. If not, no worries!😎👍
Not wanting wood. That’s so uncomfortable I Want the material so we enjoy sitting in it.
Do the tops of the chairs still fold down? I have this exact set
Melissa, great question, yes, they do still fold down. Thanks for watching and commenting and let us know if you have any other questions!😎👍
Do you know what brand chairs these are?
The brand is Summer Winds. If you add the word patio chair in Google when searching, some options should come up for you. Thanks for watching and commenting and let us know if you have any more questions!😎👍
