'This is the most time-consuming as this will involve removing most of the upholstery fabric to see the wood hidden beneath,' says Vanessa. Replacing areas and/or sections of your couch frame would require a lot of care and precision as you would need to carefully strip your sofa of its fabric and replace the areas of damaged wood. More often than not, sofa frames are made from wood, like kiln-dried hardwood which is a sturdy base from which to build a couch. Fix the wooden frame of your couchĪs its name suggests, a couch frame gives your seating space its shape. ‘After fixing them, you’d need to reattach the fabric again carefully reviewing where it went before so the aesthetics are intact.’ 5. Vanessa says, 'The fabric would need to come off, then pliers to see the damaged springs and replace them. So if you'd rather call in the professionals, now is the time to do so. But just note, as Vanessa tells us, this would be a more 'detailed job'. If you've found some misshaped springs, you'd need to replace them. 'All that would need to happen is to get a new cushion and replace it with the new one by unzipping the cushion cover and placing new foam or any new material of your liking.’ 4. ‘This is actually the easiest fix', Vanessa tells us. If you've discovered that the cushions are the root cause of the sagging, out of all of the problems to have, this is a quick problem to resolve. If the frame needs replacing, you’ll be able to see a crack or bowing in the frame. To check whether it’s the frame of the sofa, remove all the sofa cushions and carefully turn the sofa on its side so you can see the bottom of it. Depending on what sofa you have, you may also need to carefully remove the dust cover at the bottom so you can see whether or not the springs are all uniform or out of place. To check whether it’s the springs, you will need to remove all the cushions from the sofa. To check whether it’s the cushions that are causing your sofa to slump, feel and look inside the cushion covering to see whether they are in good, bad or just ok condition. Determine where your couch is saggingĬould it be your cushions? Could it be your springs? Or could it be the actual frame of the sofa that’s causing your sofa to sag? So in essence, read the instructions and follow them thoroughly.’ 2. 'The amount of times I’ve had to rebuild one because homeowners or tenants didn’t read the instructions or just assumed they could do it with whatever screw they could find. Always read the directions it comes with as every step is there for a reason. Rather, you assess if you have enough and move forward.Vanessa says, ‘I’d say, don’t assume you know how to assemble the couch you have in front of you.
