Why You Should Store Your Patio Cushions With Us

Generally, if you leave your patio cushions out overnight and it rains, they will be protected (since they are moisture, mildew, and fade resistant). But if you leave them unattended for days and weeks on end, they’re bound to be damaged and sometimes become unrepairable.

At Triple S, we offer winter storage and cleaning services every year to help you keep your outdoor cushions CLEAN, FRESH & BRIGHT®!



3 Ways Triple S Keeps Your Patio and Boat Cushions Clean

1. Triple S ProSeal Fabric Protector

Our fabric protector helps keep cushion fabric water-resistant and stain-free, so next year you won’t have to worry about storing them indoors when a thunderstorm is in the forecast. 

2. Antimicrobial/Deodorizing Treatment

Not only will we keep cushions stain-free, but we will also use a treatment to eliminate mildew on fibers and stop the growth of bacteria. That way, you won’t need to fret about the heat and humidity anymore!

3. Our 7-Step Process

At Triple S, we will take care of it all - from inspecting stains to cleaning and speed drying. During our 7-step process, we will take care of the following: inspect items, test fabric, pre-vacuum, precondition, hand spot, clean, and speed dry.

Patio and boat cushions are custom cleaned with our four-step proprietary hand cleaning process, including the application of our ProSeal fabric protector. Each step is necessary to ensure the cushions Look Like New after cleaning.

It’s very important to store your outdoor cushions and upholstery during the off-season. Simply tying or wrapping a plastic cover over your furniture isn’t enough (mildew can easily develop over time). You’ll want to store your cushions in a dry environment.

Visit our website to learn more. You can bring in your cushions or we will send on of our experts to pick them up!

Triple S has three main plant locations:

Stamford Plant | 400 West Main Street

Clean With This, Not That

There’s always a smarter way to clean — and when we find it, we love sharing it with our readers! We’ve discussed time management tips, how to stay organizational, and more. This time, we’re comparing some of the most common cleaning tools versus their alternatives...and you may be surprised at which ones you actually shouldn’t be using!



Sponges vs. Microfiber Cloths

Sponges are germ magnets! Which explains why they are one of the dirtiest things in your home. Opt out of using sponges as a cleaning tool and choose microfiber cloths instead! Microfiber cloths are not only better at cleaning surfaces, but they’re also machine washable and quick-drying — this means they’re less likely to hold onto any germs — phew!

Brooms vs. Vacuums

In reality, brooms just push the dirt and dust around instead of actually collecting it. We say it’s time to goodbye to your broom and invest in a good vacuum. Your vacuum will need a little maintenance and TLC, so don’t forget to clean the roller brush and HEPA filter every once in a while. (And still call a professional to vacuum as well!)

Floor Cleaner vs. Floor Steamer

Sometimes a simple, all-in-one floor cleaner can do the trick. But if your floors really need a deep cleaning, then a floor steamer is your secret weapon. Not only can it remove stains from ceramic tile or vinyl flooring, but it can also kill off bacteria that’s been lingering as well.
