Think about your favorite couch. Now envision it clean, with no dust or scents, just fresh comfort. That’s the look that North Shore designers love. The secret? Consistent routines like stain removal carpet service professionals endorse, with or without visible stains.

Let’s be honest: waiting for red wine to come with a loud, messy sound is something a beginner would do. Top stylists treat furniture like their hair: they take care of it all the time and don’t make a big deal out of it. Once a week, it helps to vacuum swiftly. Use the upholstery attachment to dig between the cushions and get the crumbs that no one else wants. Over time, the irritating particles break down fibers. Why give them a head start?

Every month or so, go beyond the basics. Even if they look clean, give the armrests, seats, and backs a little cleaning with a fabric-safe cleaner. This stops oils from hands and sunscreen from building up. It likes being outside in the sun and salty air from the sea. Move the cushions around so that one side of your face doesn’t get all the attention. “Favorite spot fade” is something designers make fun of, so don’t let it happen in your living room.

Every season, hire the pros to come in and clean everything up. They can identify the difference between a shadow and a stain. A lot of the time, what you can’t see is what makes you sneeze or smell. Families who are amazed by how easy dirt comes off always say, “I didn’t know it could feel new again!”

Take care of your upholstery all the time, but not too much. These simple things build up, like watering your plants or brushing your teeth. Your couch will not only be able to handle kid parties, movie nights, and the occasional breakfast-in-bed experiment, but it will also look like it belongs in a magazine. And who wouldn’t want that?
