The holidays are a time for joy and gatherings— that just so happen to come with the occasional red wine spill or chocolate smudge. Whether you’re hosting an elegant dinner party or a cozy movie marathon, it’s important to think about protecting furniture from the wear and tear that comes with entertaining ahead of time.
Setting a furniture protection plan into place helps safeguard your investment while making messes easier to manage this season. Fabric protection adds an additional layer of protection to your furnishings that keep them looking their best. Combining fabric protection services with a comprehensive fabric maintenance plan will allow you to fully enjoy the festivities— without the stress.
'tis the season for spills
Whether it’s mulled wine or hot cocoa, holiday entertaining often results in stubborn stains— which is why now is a perfect time to add a furniture protection plan to your holiday preparations.
Professional fabric protection services provide peace of mind knowing your sofas, chairs, rugs and other soft surfaces have an invisible barrier to guard them from spills and stains. A high-quality fabric protectant doesn’t just repel liquids— is also makes the cleanup process quicker and easier.
Protecting furniture before the holidays means less time stressing over your furnishings, and more time enjoying the moment. A furniture protection plan is like an insurance policy to protect your investment in fine furnishings.

DIY Fabric Protection
When it comes to fabric protection, there are a few different options on the market. While DIY fabric protection spray may temporarily shield against spills, it’s up to you to handle any more difficult stains that break through the barrier.
Fabric Protection Service
A professional fabric protection service applies a carefully formulated fabric protectant that provides long-lasting resistance to spills, making cleanup a breeze. Fabric care professionals know the best way to care for and protect your furnishings, taking the guesswork out of fabric protection.
Additionally, all-inclusive fabric protection companies such as Fiber-Seal offer complimentary spot cleaning for any trickier spills or stains that may penetrate the protective layer. Routine maintenance solutions are also often provided by fabric care services.
The holidays are hectic enough without having to worry about cleaning stains from the sofa after the party. Investing in a tried and trusted furniture protection plan means less cleaning, less worrying and more time enjoying your space with guests!
how to clean upholstery
Cleaning upholstery is an essential part of any furniture protection plan. Routine, light cleaning keeps furnishings looking fresh and new in between deeper cleans. The good news? Protected furniture will not have to be cleaned as often as furnishings that aren’t protected! Here are some simple steps to follow:
Blot
When a spill occurs, blot the fabric— do not rub! Use a clean white towel to absorb the spill as quickly as possible.
Test
ALWAYS test fabrics before cleaning! If using any type of upholstery cleaner, test it in an inconspicuous spot and wait to ensure that no color changes appear.
Understand the Fabric
Know your fabric— delicate materials like rayon fabric need to be treated with extra caution and can often only be dry cleaned. With more delicate fabrics, we highly recommend leaving their cleaning to a professional upholstery cleaner to minimize the risk involved.
Consult Fabric Care Professionals
Call the fabric care professionals— the simplest and safest route is to call a fabric care professional to take care of the upholstery cleaning, whether you need spot cleaning or a deep clean.
