It’s a great thing to live in the Northern Beaches. You get sun, sand and waves. However, your furniture is also likely to be exposed to more than rays. Maintaining a clean and healthy environment in your home is vital. How often should you clean your couches and chairs? more about the author?

Everyone has a friend that spills red wines like it’s his or her job. If you are entertaining often, your upholstery could need some extra attention. Consider this: If your sofa could speak, would you beg it for mercy if it did? Then a monthly spot-cleaning may be needed.

The average household, without significant spills or accidents, should clean their couches every six to twelve months. For those with pets and children who use your couch as a playground, you may want this frequency increased to every three to four months.

Have you ever sat on your favorite seat and found an odd odor wafting out? Yes, that is not the ghost of a dinner long ago. It may be time for an extensive cleaning. A combination of professional services and home DIY efforts can help to keep things new.

Let’s not be naive about allergies. Dust mites enjoy fabric as much we do our comfortable seats. Regular cleaning is essential to keep dust mites away, especially if you or someone in your home suffers from asthma or allergies.

The sun is also important! UV rays in the sun can cause discoloration over time. Fabric-specific protective sprays can provide an additional layer of protection from the elements.

Anyone ever notice how some people cover the furniture they own with slipcovers, or throws. It’s not only a fashionable move, it’s also practical! These covers are machine washable, and they protect the fabric beneath from wear and tears.
