Veneer Cleaning and Maintenance Services – At Your Service
Welcome to At Your Service, your go-to expert for maintaining the beauty and longevity of your engineered wood veneer surfaces. Engineered wood veneer brings warmth, elegance, and a touch of nature into any space, but it requires some care to keep it looking its best. Here’s how we can help.
Our Services
At Your Service, we understand the nuances of veneer care. Our services are designed to cater to both residential and commercial clients, ensuring your wood veneer surfaces remain pristine, durable, and as beautiful as the day they were installed.
Regular Cleaning and Maintenance
Regular maintenance is vital to preserving the aesthetic and integrity of wood veneer. Our team uses gentle, non-abrasive cleaning techniques to remove dust and dirt without damaging the surface. We recommend and perform cleaning with soft, dry cloths and, when necessary, a slightly damp cloth to avoid water damage or staining.
Sunlight and Heat Protection
Veneer surfaces are sensitive to sunlight and heat, which can cause fading, cracking, or warping over time. We offer consultations on room arrangements to minimise exposure to direct sunlight and recommend using UV inhibitors for surfaces that receive more light exposure, ensuring the long-term protection of your wood veneer.
Scratch and Damage Prevention
Sharp objects are the veneer’s nemesis. Our services include advising you on protecting your surfaces from potential scratches and applying protective coatings that can help shield the wood from accidental damage. For commercial settings, we provide solutions that cater to high-traffic areas, ensuring durability and longevity.

Even with the best care, veneer surfaces may require professional attention from time to time. Whether it’s minor scratches or more significant wear and tear, At Your Service offers refinishing and repair services.

FAQs on Veneer Cleaning and Maintenance

Can I clean my wood veneer furniture with water?
It’s best to avoid using water directly on the veneer. For regular cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, a slightly damp cloth can be used sparingly, but ensure it’s well-wrung out to avoid moisture damage.

How often should I dust my wood veneer surfaces?
We recommend dusting at least once a week to prevent buildup that can scratch and dull the surface. Use a soft, lint-free cloth for best results.

Is it safe to use commercial cleaners on my veneer furniture?
Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, as they can damage the finish. If you need to use a cleaner, opt for one specifically designed for wood veneer and use it sparingly.

Can wood veneer surfaces be refinished?
Yes, wood veneer can be refinished, but it requires a professional touch to avoid damaging the thin layer of wood. Contact us for refinishing services to ensure the best outcome.

How can I protect my veneer furniture from sunlight damage?
Place furniture away from direct sunlight and consider using window treatments to diffuse light. UV inhibitors in the finish can also offer additional protection.

What should I do if my veneer furniture gets scratched?
A touch-up marker or a shellac stick can be used for minor scratches. For deeper scratches or damage, professional repair services are recommended to restore the surface.

Is it necessary to polish wood veneer furniture?
While not always necessary, applying a suitable wood polish can enhance the appearance and offer protection. Ensure the polish is suitable for veneer surfaces.

How can I prevent water rings on my veneer table?
Use coasters under all glasses and hot pads under dishes to prevent moisture and heat damage. Wipe up spills immediately to avoid staining.

Can I place hot items directly on veneer surfaces?
No, extreme heat can damage the veneer finish. Always use trivets or mats to protect the surface from hot dishes or cookware.

How do I know if my veneer furniture needs professional maintenance?
If you notice fading, significant scratches, or the finish starting to peel or crack, it’s time to seek professional help. Regular inspections can help catch issues early before they require more extensive repairs.
