After months of sweltering heat, Mumbai gets into a monsoon mood. The love that Mumbaikars have for the monsoon is incomparable. It is a love-hate relationship as the rain looks beautiful outside, but managing your home in Mumbai is a complete nightmare.

To simplify furniture maintenance for the monsoon, we have created a comprehensive list that helps keep your modular furniture fresh and dry.

Check your walls for cracks & leaks:

Making your home leakproof is one of the most obvious monsoon tips. It is important to inspect external walls and fix all your cracks with fillers. If you detect any sign of shrinking, set it to avoid unwanted water seepage. Water seepage can also reduce the life of your modular furniture. 

Insect Proof your home:

The rainy season makes your home a breeding ground for insects. Proper hygiene in your home, especially in your modular kitchen, is essential to avoid any undesired insect invasion. 

Check for any gaps in your wooden furniture and walls. Make sure that all your food is secured in airtight containers. It is advised to use insecticide indoors to deter insects. 

Maintain proper ventilation:

Keeping proper breezy air prevents bad odour and mould formation. Moulds can affect your health adversely. It can also affect the lifespan of your modular furniture. It is advised to keep windows open during monsoon for appropriate ventilation.  

Keeping your balcony dry:

Accumulated terrace water can seep into your home and dampen your walls. If your balcony has modular outdoor furniture, you can give an extended life to them by adding an extra weatherproof coating. 

Keeping your terrace dry throughout the monsoon is practically impossible. It is advisable to clean it frequently. You can even shade your balcony to spruce your balcony along with preventing water accumulation and maintaining the outdoor modular furniture. 

Keep entryway clean:

The lobby is one of the most vulnerable areas during monsoons. The modular shoe racks in the lobby store your wet shoes. The lobby is where people usually place their wet umbrellas and raincoats. 

It is no new news that the monsoon wetness can bring stinky odour, To avoid a stinky and shabby entryway, it is advisable to have hooks to hang your wet windcheaters and umbrellas. Keeping a large doormat can be the simplest way to avoid mud entering your home. Camphor and neem leaves can keep the foul smell away. During heavy monsoon days, keeping a towel handy so visitors don’t enter your home wet is better. 

Avoid unwanted damage to books:

Moisture may cause irrevocable harm to your books, which is a bibliophile’s worst fear. Modular bookshelves require the same maintenance as the rest of your wooden modular furniture. If your bookshelf is next to a window, it is best to move it a bit further away to avoid severe damage to your books. It is best to dry out your books in the sun after the rain.

Aside from normal rain maintenance, modular furniture requires specific care and upkeep. Wooden furniture and flooring are popular choices in customised modular interior design since they make your house seem more comfortable, welcoming, and elegant. However, wood is more vulnerable to damage during monsoons.

Here are some tips to help your wooden modular furniture survive longer.

Special Monsoon Tips for Wooden Modular Furniture:

  • Termites are more likely to damage wooden home and office furniture. As a result, it is critical to maintain an attentive eye on them during the rainy season. To keep termites at bay, have camphor balls or neem oil on hand.
  • Keeping your wooden furniture dry throughout the rainy season is critical to extend its life. If you have a modular wooden table near your windows, move it away from them to prevent excessive moisture contact.
  • You should consider varnishing your modular wooden beds before the monsoon to protect them from moisture.
  • You can use wax sealants or polish on hardwood floors. Polish can protect your customized furniture from monsoons and add a glossy effect.
