I don’t know how to go about this situation with out sounding completely irresponsible but I just need some opinions.
This past saturday we had a get together at our house. We had a fire pit in the back yard. At one point one of my husband’s "Friends" starting getting rather violent. We asked him to leave. He wouldn’t. He would stand outside our fenced in yard staring at us so at one point we decided to just go inside and forget about him. We left our fire pit with some hot coals on the fire but it was not a raging fire whats so ever just some hot coals. After about 30 minutes we went back outside to smoke a cigarette and our patio chairs were on top of the fire, my daughters plastic toys were on top of the fire pit. It was obvious this person had done this so my husband went after him since he was still in the area just standing there. They got into a fight and the police were called. They were asking questions to my husband to bring about assault charges against him for attacking the guy which, to be honest, I can see why. He should not have gone after him for a fight. BUT the cops never even looked at the back yard and the furniture which was burned and cushions that were melted our fire pit table is black and burnt up.
Where do we stand with this. We want to bring charges against him so he will have to pay for our ruined stuff…. but since there was no police report about the fire we don’t feel we have a case. I kept repeating over and over that he set a fire to our patio furniture but they just kept saying this was an assault call and no mention of the fire
it just boggles my mind that he will get away with this. I know my husband was in the wrong for going after him (my husband got really hurt, broken ribs, broken wrist, etc) and we dont even want to file charges about that BUT the fire is what we want taken care of and our 500 patio set is GONE now.

I’m renting an apartment and it has a sunroom instead of a balcony. I’m moving from a 3100 sq ft. house. And the apt is 1800 sq ft. It has all the necessary space to put my furniture except my patio set. Could I put it into a sunroom?

When sliding the chairs in and out around the table, will the bottoms/legs scratch a painted concrete patio? We are going back and forth on whether or not to buy a new metal patio set and need to know from people who have this situation…ASAP!

We just bought a patio set which includes thick chair cushions. They say they have been treated to be water repellant. Do we need to move them every time it rains? What else should I do to protect the padding? Thanks.

I have a patio set (table and four chairs) on my deck and I put a canvas cover on it. It’s pretty heavy and durable, but it keeps blowing off on windy days. Any tips for keeping it from blowing off? I guess I could put huge rocks on top of the table or something, but I think that wouldn’t look too attractive. Thanks!

I was given a 5 piece patio set and a gas grill from a family friend. The only problem is that it’s in WV and I am in GA. Any ideas for how to ship them down? Thanks!
