Give the care and love your solid timber furniture needs

When making an investment in handmade and custom solid timber furniture, you want to be sure enough to take its proper care. Taking care of your timber furniture will keep its appearance and surface last long and remain as good as new. 

The best part about having a timber dining table is its appearance, unique luster, and texture. High-quality timber furniture withstands years of use if properly taken care of. On the other hand, if you consider purchasing a low-quality dining table for cheap, it will surely crack up, become dull and yellow as it no longer will be able to resist moisture. 

How to care for your solid timber furniture 

Let’s look at a few ways in which you can take good care of your timber furniture. 

Dusting 

Dusting helps to keep your surface free of any debris or dust. Using a soft and damp cloth, wipe off everything from your surface. Follow it up with a dry and soft cloth so that it absorbs extra moisture. Ideally, you should dust on a regular basis.

Cleaning

If your solid timber dining table asks for deep cleaning, that is more than just dusting, try to clean it with mild soap and water. However, make sure that you dry the furniture completely. Also, make sure that whatever chemicals you’re using shall be wooden-friendly. For instance, bleach and any other products containing ammonia need to be avoided as they can discolor the furniture. 

Prevent The Furniture From Heat Damage

When serving meals, avoid putting a heated surface on the table directly. Use hot pads instead to put a barrier between the hot surface and the timber. Also, avoid placing your furniture too close to heat vents or other places like radiators or fireplaces. Placing candles on the timber surface can also cause discoloration. 

Avoid Water Damage

Use a dry and soft cloth to wipe or clean the furniture if up spill up water or juice on the table. Try to use coasters for beverages as they can prevent condensation and ultimately, discoloration caused because of water rings on the surface. 

Prevent Scratches

It is important to prevent any scratches on the table as it will make the table appear worn and torn. Use tablecloths, table pads, table runners or mats to prevent any scratches on the table. 

Look Out For Possible Structural Damage

While moving the furniture or installing it, the furniture will always be lifted to the desired place. This movement can cause pulling or dragging of furniture which could damage the joints holding the piece together and steady. 

Conclusion 

Taking care of your timber furniture is easy and simple. Yet, all the time and effort you’re asked to put in is worth keeping the piece in its best condition. Take necessary steps to maintain and preserve the original beauty of your custom timber furniture.
