Should You Repair Or Replace Your Furniture?

Posted by homeofh on October 19th, 2016

One of the dilemmas we often face when something goes wrong with our furniture is whether to repair the furniture or replace the furniture. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. There is no one magic answer for this question. It has to be handled case by case basis. For example, if what you have at hand is a sentimental heirloom, which has been passed on to you for generations then you might want to repair that particular piece of furniture. On the other hand, if what you have is just another piece of furniture that you once fancied but hold no special value for it then there is nothing wrong in replacing such furniture.

Before you make your decision, you need to take into account a few important factors. Firstly, get a quote for repairing the furniture, provided it could be restored to its fully functional state. Not all furniture could be repaired. Therefore, this could be another deciding factor here whether you should repair or replace. When you are getting your quote for repairing, you should also take into account other factors such as transportation of the furniture back and forth. At times, repair services are offered at doorsteps but most service providers would want you to get your furniture to their workshop. This would involve your time and the transportation cost. You should also consider the waiting time or the time taken to repair the furniture. You may have to do without the furniture for those many days.

Get a quote for brand new furniture from reputed Lebanese furniture stores and compare it with the repair costs and all the other related expenses mentioned above. Do you really save anything here? Does the saving make sense given all the hassles? Here you could have your furniture delivered within a day or two. Moreover, you will enjoy using brand new furniture, which will give a completely new look and feel to your interiors. Moreover, the new furniture will come with its own warranty and lifespan, which will certainly be much longer than the lifespan of the furniture that you repair. Taking long term concerns into account, it is lot easier and more assuring to go with a replacement rather than a repair. Even if you repair your furniture, you could not be sure, how long the repaired furniture would survive.  

If you are looking at competitive options for brand new furniture Lebanon certainly offers excellent options. You could find what you are looking for at the right prices by investing some time in screening your furniture stores. While ordering your brand new furniture, you should also check whether your furniture store offers on going support and servicing so that you are not forced to look for a new provider down the line. Always go with well-established companies so that you know that they are meant to be there when you need them and not disappear from the scene after a few months.
