Dining room chairs can sometimes be a real nightmare for a furniture cleaning Scottsdale service professional. One of the issues can be awkward shapes and angles to try and fully clean. Another is the fiber selected to be used is often not ideal at repelling stains from food stains and oils. In fact, the most important part of cleaning a dining room chair goes back to the day it was upholstered and what type of fiber you have that will generally determine the cleanability of you chairs.
Furniture Cleaning Scottsdale – What does fiber type have to do with it
Fiber type is especially important to think about when choosing your dining room chairs, and the phrase, ‘you get what you pay for’, does not necessarily apply. While the cheapest fabrics will have some issues, the most expensive tend to have more. One common choice is called polypropylene and it is very durable against wear and tear. The issue is that it is a petroleum based product that absorbs grease and oil. Hot oils from foods such as marinara or broths from soups can leave permanent discoloration in the right circumstances.
On the pricier end, we have silk, which can take very little wear and tear or handle spills. But it sure looks great when its new!
Furniture Cleaning Scottsdale – what fabric should I choose?
When choosing the fabric that is right for you, you must first consider what your personal situation is. Questions you should ask include,
Do you have kids?
Do you have pets?
Will you use the piece or is it for show?
If you answer yes to the first two, you may want to go with a blend of nylon and polyester as it will handle the food spills as well as the natural oils in the animals very well. If you answered no to the first two and yes to the third, then a silk piece may be feasible as it will have unmatched beauty and luster to show off in a formal room.
In Arizona it is important to keep the dirt and dust and grit removed from the fabric regularly to keep it looking good for many years. If a piece sees little to no use, regular vacuuming will help it keep its natural luster. If a piece sees regular use, a cleaning every year or two may not be a bad idea to keep it looking like the day you bought it.

White colored furniture can seem like a fantastic idea at the time of purchase. It looks spectacular when it is bright and clean. Usually you can be pretty satisfied with it once you see it sitting in your home, all its glorious whiteness. This glorious feeling tends to go away shortly after you start to use it. From food spills to newspaper ink to body oil it is far to easy to make that fresh and clean look fade away.

Take a look at some of the luck we’ve had with a recent case of white Scottsdale furniture cleaning job we completed below.
Scottsdale Furniture Cleaning – Before Cleaning
This is the chaise longue (its pronounce ‘lounge’ and its spelled right, look it up) section of a sectional sofa. Now, it is important to note that this piece had seen the majority of its damage while in transport from one home to the next. This is apparent by the placement of the soiling. Generally you would not see the top right corner so terribly worn. This goes for the streaks on the panel just below it. In some residential cases, especially homes with dogs, you can expect to see some soiling on the rounded edge. In this case, however, it most likely occurred during transport. The chance of this kind of soiling is why we recommend you have your furniture cleaned after you have completed a move and not before.

This is the curved section of the piece. This image is helpful as it shows just how soiled the piece truly was. While the first image showed soiling caused by transportation, this one tells the true tale of natural soiling. The seat and back area were largely unaffected by the move and are simply well used. The right half has gone through the cleaning process while the left has yet to be.
Scottsdale Furniture Cleaning – Final Result
As you can see, we were able to restore the piece to almost new condition. The one caveat being the top corner. Fortunately for the consumer, the piece is relatively new and the fabric still available, so the corner damage caused can and will be repaired. and below, you will see what the curved section looks like after we completed the left side.
