Leather Care
Leather Goods and Furnishings need care and maintenance to keep them looking good and lasting for years to come. Leather is like our skin and it needs to be adequately moisturized. Look over your pieces and check them out for early signs of wear to the finish, dryness and pealing. Catch any problems before its too late and you must replace or recover them.
Preserved and Permanent Floral arrangements need maintenance and cleaning. If they have been in place for more than a year check condition and consider immediate disposal.
Carpet Care...Cool Weather
Carpets need turning if they are in heavy sunlight. Change of season is a good time to send them out for cleaning.
Hardwood Floor Care
Change of season calls us indoors to take a close look at interior finishes and floor conditions. Make plans to condition your wood floors and keep up with maintenance and refinishing projects. Look for early wear signs in areas adjacent to doors and windows. Note: These projects will go easier on your family if they are done during the warmer months or when you family can be temporarily out of the house while work is underway. Fall, spring and summer are the best times to get these projects done. Dryer, warmer weather helps with the curing process.
