Apply clear and tinted oils to your wood garden fence, shed, and summerhouse, to aid protection against UV light and other weather elements throughout the year. Protecting your garden wooden structures helps keep them structurally sound, keeping rot, algae, and fungal attacks at bay for longer.
Our collection of wood oils for gardens can be applied with just a few coats and are friendly to humans, pets, and wildlife, once dry. Available in clear, they are also tintable and ready to buy in many natural wood shades and tones from the biggest brands, including Rubio Monocoat, Osmo, and Flag.
Protecting garden fences, sheds, and summerhouses helps prevent vandals and wildlife from breaching rotten areas and gaining access to areas you have been keeping private. It helps prevent crime such as stealing from garden sheds or gaining access to home through rear entrances and windows, as well as wildlife pilfering your veg patch and fruit trees, or breaking into sheds and summerhouses to hibernate.

Yes - nourishing wood with oil refreshes natural oils that have been lost during exposure to the elements, and protects wood from within. Our traditional and next-generation oils provide excellent resistance to weather and fungal attacks that would otherwise rot wood, resulting in expensive repairs to fencing and sheds.
How often should you oil your fence?
Traditional wood oils, such as Danish Oil, require multiple coats to provide adequate protection to sheds and fences, and may require regular recoating through the year to maintain. Our next-generation wood oils from Rubio Monocoat and Osmo are one-coat products that last much longer and protect against UV light, water, dirt, and fungal attacks.
Can you use decking oil on a shed?
We recommend use of wood oils designed for vertical surfaces such as Osmo and Rubio Monocoat.
How do I stop my fence going GREY?
Wood will grey naturally over time when exposed to sunlight. Using wood oils on exterior wood surfaces, such as sheds and fences, will slow the effect and allow you to enjoy the natural beauty of wood for much longer. Osmo UV-Protection Oil, for example, maintains wood’s natural wetted colour, slowing the greying process by (UV factor) 12 times in comparison to untreated wood.
