Furniture Care

Every piece of Furniture at Red Tree Furniture is produced to the highest standards and with furniture care and maintainance you should continue to enjoy each piece as it matures in your home.

 

With all our Tables and Units we recommend that you use table mats under hot plates, mugs and glasses and protective pads under ornaments will help avoid any possible scratches. Ideally mats should be taken off after use and not left on indefinitely, so as not to be effected by natural light. Finally it is always recommended where possible to rotate your Tables & Seating to ensure uniform exposure to sunlight but do so carefully and always lift clear, with dragging.

 

With High Gloss, Glass or Matt Finishes we recommend the following:
For day to day cleaning a simple wipe down with a feather duster or soft microfibre/E-Cloth. For a deeper clean spray your high gloss surface with water and clean with an e-cloth – then buff dry with a soft, dry cloth. Wipe up liquid spills immediately, and for more sticky spills use clean water and wipe with an e-cloth.  Don’t leave water to air dry – instead buff dry with a dry microfibre cloth. Do not use any chemical based cleaners or abrasive cleaning agents or cloths (e.g. linen cloths, paper towels etc) on High Gloss surfaces as these will scratch. If your furniture becomes stained, scratched or chipped, or suffers other damage we recommend professional help is sought to restore it.

 

With Marble Finishes we recommend the following:
Our Marble Tops are protected by several layers of protective clear Lacquer, which is not only water-proof but offers extra durability protection. Wipe any marks or spills with a damp cloth and then dry using a soft duster. Use a few drops of a PH neutral cleaner and warm water for cleaning stubborn stains and then dry as before. Abrasive Cleaners may damage or scratch the tops and where possible avoid placing your Marble Table in direct sunlight or close to a heat source such as a Radiator.

 

With Ceramic & Porcelain Finishes we recommend the following:
Our Ceramic tops should be cleaned using a damp cloth and for more stubborn stains a mild detergent. Do not use any chemical based cleaners or abrasive cleaning agents and it is always it is always recommended to remove all stains as quickly as possible to keep your Table looking great. Stains which have lingered a bit longer can be tackled with a solution of warm water & a little bicarbonate soda. Wipe the mix & allow it penetrate for max 20 secs and carefully wipe away with a clean damp cloth.

For Solid Wood & Wood Veneer we recommend the following:
Moisture is the worst enemy of wooden furniture so all spillages should be wiped up immediately. When cleaning, preferably use a lightly damp cloth and always wipe the wood thoroughly dry after cleaning, with the grain. Perhaps every six months, your furniture could  be enhanced with an application of Beeswax. Note the manufacturer’s instructions of furniture care but apply lightly with the grain and remove with a lint free cloth. This will help the appearance and protect the piece for further use.
