How to Care for Wood Furniture

Taking steps to protect your wood furniture can preserve its natural beauty and help it last for generations. When buying new furniture, ask your sales rep for the recommended care instructions. Here are some general guidelines for wood furniture care.

Prevent Damage

To keep them looking like new, place wood furnishings out of direct sunlight and away from heat vents. The sun can cause fading, and the heat will dry the wood, causing unsightly cracks.

It’s also a good idea to monitor the humidity level in your house. Humidity lower than 40% can contribute to cracking over time. Too much humidity can also cause problems, as it can lead to wood swelling.

Moisture on the surface can damage wood, too, so use coasters to absorb water from glasses placed on side tables and coffee tables.

Avoid using wood cleaning products such as waxes and polishes on wood furniture, because they can cause damage and build-up.

Dusting

As part of your weekly cleaning routine, dust your furnishings to remove airborne particles that have deposited on the wood. These can build up into a layer of film or lead to scratches. Spray polishes can build up over time and leave the wood looking dull.

To prevent dust from scattering around the room, use a soft, clean, damp cloth or a microfiber dusting cloth. Feather dusters and treated pieces of cloth are also good options. For intricate woodwork or tall pieces, try a lamb’s wool duster with a long handle. They’re made with lanolin, which helps hold onto the dust particles.

Get a Warranty

Even with regular dusting and proper care, accidents can happen. That’s why we offer Montage to protect your furniture. You can live and use your furniture without worry, because if there is any accidental damage in the first five years, you can get your wood furniture fixed or replaced. Of course, normal wear and tear isn’t covered, but you can have peace of mind that your furnishings will be protected from life’s mishaps.

When taking care of your wooden furniture, you’ll need to take proactive steps to protect it and maintain its beauty and longevity. By keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat, managing humidity and avoiding moisture exposure, you can prevent the most common forms of damage and enjoy your wooden furniture for years to come.
