The next step is to remove stains. It’s best to treat spills as soon as possible. Imagine that your favorite ice-cream spills on your new armchair. Oh, the horror! Do not rub. Instead, use a clean towel and a few drops dishwashing soap mixed with water. This blend is a miracle worker, and can almost turn back the clock to extend the life of your couch.

There are also those annoying odors. Fresh air and upholstery cleaning northern beaches is great, but the smells can sometimes creep into your home. You can save yourself by letting a sprinkle of baking soda sit over night. No incantation is necessary, the silent odor-absorbing agent will do its work and leave your furniture as fresh as morning breeze. It’s also a good idea to hire professional cleaners every six months. They have a variety of gadgets to remove grime you can’t see. It’s also a great excuse to spend a relaxing day on the beach, while someone else takes care of the dirty work.

Upholstery cleaning is not rocket science. It does, however, require diligence, time and a little bit of know-how. Use these tips to make your furniture the envy of all your guests with sandy feet. Upholstery care can be as easy as a stroll on the beach or a trip to the park.
