Does your old sofa not feel as comfortable as it used to? Perhaps you’re experiencing back pain whenever you sit at the kitchen table. If you’re suffering from these problems, you may be in need of the upholstery services of Lahaina Carpet & Interiors in Maui, HI.

If you think your sofa or seat cushions have seen better days, here are three ways to be sure, from the fabrics professionals at Lahaina Carpet & Indoors:

  • Visual Damage: When cushions are new, the foam inside them is usually sized a bit bigger than the cushion’s dimensions, giving it a puffy appearance.  However, this foam deteriorates over time and the cushion begins to shrink. One clear sign that the foam in your cushions or seats has begun to lose its effectiveness is when the covers appear to be sagging; if you have a lot of excess fabric on your cushions it means it’s time to invest in upholstery services.
  • UpholsteryCompare Cushions: An easy way to determine if your couch or chair cushions need upholstery services is by comparing them. Take one of the cushions from a frequently used chair or area of the couch and compare it with another cushion that isn’t used very often; if one appears much flatter than the other, it’s likely because the memory foam inside it needs to be replaced.
  • Physical Discomfort: One of the most telling signs that your cushions or chairs are in need of upholstery services is when you experience physical discomfort while using them, such as neck or back pains. Such discomfort can be easily overlooked because your attention is elsewhere; you may be on the couch watching a movie or seated working at the computer and only notice the pain hours later. If such pain is a recent occurrence, it’s likely because you need to reupholster your couch or seat cushions.
