\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Choose the Right Fabric<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Give yourself an advantage when you buy right.\u00a0Choose the right fabric\u00a0for the right place and you make your upholstery maintenance task easier. Not only that, but choosing fabric that is appropriate for your lifestyle and the upholstered piece can extend the furniture’s life.<\/p>\n

For example,\u00a0synthetic fibres\u00a0are a better choice for upholstered furniture that sits in areas of heavy usage. If you have pets, choose fabrics that do not have loose weaves or too much texture.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Protect Your Fabric<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The best form of fabric protection is prompt attention to spills. A lot of work is done for you when the upholstery fabric undergoes the finishing process at the factory. where it is usually treated with soil and\/or water repellents. Some form of mildew inhibitors may also be used. Additional fabric protectors may also be applied to your upholstered furniture in the store or at home.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

While this helps with maintenance and care by keeping spills from being absorbed into the upholstery fibres right away, it is not a substitute for prompt cleaning of a soiled piece. Don’t let it give you a false sense of security. Always clean up any spills or stains in a timely manner, and\u00a0follow manufacturer\u2019s instructions\u00a0for proper care methods.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Turn the Cushions<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You can extend your upholstered furniture\u2019s life by periodically turning over the loose cushions. What can be simpler? Yet this easy maintenance method allows for an even distribution of wear and tear and your cushions won\u2019t develop indentations right away. Caring for cushions by fluffing them after you\u2019ve cleaned also helps keep them in shape.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Change the cushions around from one part to the other in addition to turning them over. Some seats get more usage than others, so changing cushions around will ensure even usage.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Call a Professional<\/strong><\/h3>\n

It is best to have a professional clean your upholstered furniture every couple of years or so. Experts recommend having this done on a regular basis and not wait for it to get visibly dirty. The dirtier a sofa or chair becomes, the harder it is to restore to its original glory.<\/p>\n
