Why you need our Mattress Restoration Cleaning Service

Leather is not just comfortable; it is beautiful too! Investments in quality leather furniture will give you plenty of years of service last several times longer than faux leather, leather is a thick natural skin which is durable and in the case of pigmented leather resistant to spills which can easily be cleaned up. Over time protective layers will reduce and these will need replenishing as with aniline leather which is very absorbent, will soak up any spill and oils from ourselves, pigmented leather will stain more easily if the layer of protection has gone. To help maintain the splendour of your leather sofa it is essential that it receives regular maintenance and a periodic professional leather clean service. During times where the furniture is not being used it is always best to cover with a light sheet (avoid strong colours as these may transfer to the leather and will need restoring). Hampshire Leather Care has come up with a simple to follow maintenance programme: Step 1 - Vacuum CleaningUsing a soft brush extension as leather can scratch easily when soft and supple, regularly vacuum to remove any debris, crumbs or dirt focusing on visible debris between the cushions and down the sides. Step 2 – Damp Cloth WipeUsing water only, dampen a soft cloth or sponge and carefully wipe down your leather furniture to remove soils which can not be vacuumed away, do not use baby wipes or other cleaning wipes as the chemicals on these may break down protection layers, remove colour, and dry out your leather. Be careful not to over wet as excessive water may soak in especially if not pigmented.Step 4 - Drying Your FurnitureLeather should be left to dry naturally and shouldn’t take too long at room temperature so long as it has not been over wet. By opening a window, this will help your chair or sofa dry faster and prevent marks and stains.Step 5 - Conditioning Your LeatherOnce clean and dry you can condition the leather for longer lasting protection. Conditioning it will help keep the material soft and sumptuous for longer. High quality conditioners would be recommended for this. Depending on the conditioner used, follow the instructions provided but typically apply gently with a cloth, leaving a slight gloss and allow it to settle. We’d recommend using a conditioner once a month to really keep your furniture luscious. Poorly maintained Leather sofas, or well aged sofas such as chesterfield l eather sofa need professional restoration services to restore colour and bring back its natural suppleness. Leather colour restoration can be used to make sofas a whole new colour and/or restore the two tone which may have rubbed off.
