Fabric Care

FIVE YEAR PROTECTION PROGRAMME FOR YOUR FURNITURE

 
All our furniture is designed to a very high standard and you can be assured of quality and durability. However, accidents do happen which is why we offer Premier Care. It is a protection programme specifically designed to ensure that for 5 years the appearance of your furniture is not spoiled by events such as accidental household spills and other incidents like rips, tears or burns, enabling you to continue to enjoy your furniture to the full.  
 
 

HomeServe Protector

 
This Protection Programme features the application of HomeServe Protector on fabric. The treatment forms an invisible and durable shield around each fibre, resisting oil and water based spillages thus helping to prevent permanent staining. Stains that do result from a spillage are much easier to remove, keeping your fabric upholstery looking newer for longer.  
 
It can also eliminate odours caused by mildew, micro-organisms and fungal growth. These benefits all help to promote a healthier living environment for you and your family. HomeServe Protector is fully approved and endorsed by Allergy UK.  
 
Regular cleaning and vacuuming combined with the rotation and reversal of cushions will help to maintain the overall appearance and performance of your furniture. In the event of a spill, blot with a clean dry cloth. Avoid the use of silicone polishes, detergents and abrasive cleaners as these may damage your furniture. We recommend that upholstered furniture should be professionally cleaned every 12 to 18 months.
