Keeping your upholstery clean is essential to maintaining a healthy and hygienic home. Dirty upholstery can harbour allergens, dust mites, and bacteria which can compromise indoor air quality and lead to respiratory problems.
Why Upholstery Cleaning is Important
Upholstery cleaning is important for several reasons:
- It helps remove allergens and pollutants that accumulate in your furniture over time.
- It can help extend your furniture’s life by preventing premature wear and tear.
- It can help maintain your furniture’s appearance and keep it looking new.
Tips and Tricks
From the team here at Wizard Fabric and Upholstery Cleaning Perth®, we have left some of our top tips and tricks for upholstery cleaning:
- Vacuum regularly: Regular vacuuming can help to remove loose dirt and dust from your upholstery. Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment to avoid damaging your furniture.
- Blot spills immediately: If you spill something on your upholstery, immediately blot the area with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing the area, as this can spread the stain and damage the fabric.
- Test cleaning products: Before using any cleaning product on your upholstery, test it on a small, inconspicuous area first. This can ensure that it doesn’t cause any damage or discolouration.
- Use a steam cleaner: A steam cleaner is an effective tool for deep cleaning your upholstery. It can help remove your furniture’s stains, dirt, and odors without harsh chemicals.
- Hire a professional: If your upholstery is particularly dirty or stained, consider hiring a professional upholstery cleaning service. They have the expertise and equipment to clean your furniture thoroughly and safely.
Many of our customers prefer to try and keep their upholstery looked after throughout the year by employing some of the tips we left above. The problem we normally find though is that they’ll often forget to be consistent, and so time between cleans tends to increase. As this happens, the upholstery suffers and it can present a more challenging job to try and get it looking like normal again.
