Good furniture is an investment, and a little regular care goes a long way toward protecting it. Here are some simple tips from our furniture team at Tiwari Interiors.
Vacuum Upholstery Regularly
Dust and grit work into fabric fibres over time and wear them down faster than daily use alone. A weekly vacuum with an upholstery attachment helps a sofa last much longer.
Rotate and Flip Cushions
Rotating sofa cushions every few weeks spreads out wear so one section doesn’t sag faster than the rest.
Address Spills Immediately
Blot — don’t rub — spills as soon as they happen, and use a fabric-appropriate cleaner. Rubbing pushes the stain deeper into the fibres.
Keep Wooden Furniture Away From Direct Sunlight
Prolonged direct sunlight fades and dries out wood finishes on beds and almirahs. Curtains or blinds help protect furniture placed near windows.
Tighten Hardware Periodically
Almirah hinges, bed frame bolts and sofa legs loosen with regular use. Checking and tightening these every few months prevents bigger structural issues later.
Know When to Re-Cover Instead of Replace
If a sofa’s frame and cushioning are still solid but the fabric is worn or outdated, re-covering is usually far more cost-effective than buying new — and we handle sofa covering, along with custom beds and almirahs, as a core part of our furniture work.
