Tips & Tricks
Simple home solutions to keep your property in top shape
Scratches on your favourite leather chair
Pets are great, but they can cause damage to your furniture with the simplest movement. If you have minor scratches on your leather chair or suite, try rubbing orange oil into the fabric to condition the leather, helping to reduce the appearance. Often scratches only remove the colour, rather than actually tearing the leather, so a marker pen or shoe polish in the same colour will make the marks look less visible.
Crayon art on your walls
If your kids are getting handy with their crayons and pencils, and youre finding more and more masterpieces on your walls, try aiming a hair dryer at them and then wiping the surface with a damp cloth. For light colouring pencils and other scribbles you can beat a good clean eraser!
Scuff marks on vinyl floors
Try spraying WD40 on the scuff marks, with a bit of elbow grease you should be able to remove them completely.
Draughty windows
The putty around windows can often rot away over the years. Replacing it could reduce the drafts and damp over the drizzly winter months.
Apply bleach to the old putty to soften it, then gently chisel it out, being careful not to damage the surrounding wood. Roll the new putty into a long sausage, and push it into the gaps with your fingers. To neaten it up, use a putty knife to smooth it out.
Repairing nail holes
Changed your mind about where that picture should be hung? If you’ve removed a nail from the wall and are feeling a bit disgruntled about the remaining hole, you can easily patch it up. Clean away any dust, taking care not to make the hole any bigger. Carefully fill the hole with a suitable filler – always read the labels to find the best filler for your wall type. Toothpicks are great for getting the hole filled without creating a mess on the surrounding wall. You might have to re-fill the hole once it dries as filler can shrink. Then gently sand the area using circular motions to smooth it over and finish it off with a lick of paint.
Spilt wax on the carpet
Scrape the excess off using a clean, blunt knife. Then lay a piece of brown paper or other absorbent paper over the remaining wax. Run an iron over the top of the paper, only as hot as it takes to melt the wax, and you’ll find the wax has absorbed onto the paper, removing git from your carpet. |
