The Northern Beaches are like breathing in fresh sea air. It’s paradise, until you discover that your couch has mysterious stains. Upholstery cleaning is important not only for maintaining good looks, but also for keeping your home fresh – extra resources!
The sooner you take action, the faster the stain will set. Your favorite sofa cover is in a race against time. After a glass of wine, the liquid makes a dash for it. Blot, do not rub. Rubbing is bad. This only pushes the stain further in. Use a clean, dry cloth to lightly tap.
What’s going through your mind? “What if things have slipped?” We’ve all had that experience: Life happens and the sofas get damaged. In these cases, mix vinegar with baking soda. Our little home chemistry experiments works wonders! Sprinkle lightly, let it sit and then vacuum. Voila! Voila!
Let’s dive deeper. Vacuuming regularly is essential to maintaining your upholstery. Vacuuming is not just for the floors! Dust settles into fabric weaves. Weekly, give your cushions a quick once-over. This keeps allergens away and colors vibrant. Flip the cushions while you are at it. Rotating tires and cushions will equalize wear. Who knew that couches and cars are so similar?
What is the equivalent of a spa day in terms of furniture? Steam cleaning! Here’s a word of caution: Know your fabric. What about that plush velvet armchair? Steam might be prohibited. Patch testing on a small part may save you from a major headache.
