Fine furniture is a significant investment that should provide a lifetime of use and enjoyment to the buyer. Proper care and treatment of your furniture and fittings will help to maintain the original beauty and the desired finish. The following tips will help to preserve your piece of furniture:
Regularly clean and polish your furniture. Normally, dust attracts moisture, which can accumulate and soften the finish on your furniture.
Rotate your piece of furniture periodically to ensure they do not stick to one place all the time.
Place furniture away from heating and air-cum-moisture conducting vents.
Use a clean pad or cloth to protect the furniture surface from rubber, hot dishes, beverages and bookends.
Rather than dragging your pieces across the furniture surface, lift them up and position them accordingly.
Avoid placing your furniture against direct sunlight. Pull the blinds or have a UV-filtering film fitted to your windows.
Avoid prolonged use of plastic and rubber items on your furniture. Use coasters, table cloths and plate mats to protect furniture during usage
Though termites are not common in most homesteads, they are mown to cause a huge menace once they happen to attack. The solution is seeking a professional fumigation.
Use cleaners, waxes and polishing gels to help protect the finish on all your furniture from scratches and abrasions.
Dust your piece of furniture regularly and polish them at least in 4-6 months.
