Tzaneen notes on supplies & care
Tzaneen has a few foam and fabric shops that cut cushions to size, with wider ranges, marine vinyl and leather ordered from Polokwane. Outdoor fabric and quick-dry foam are worth asking for because of the damp. Upholstery cleaners here spend a lot of time on mould and odour treatment, and extraction machines can be hired, though drying takes longer in humid weather.
Upholsterers and suppliers in Tzaneen
Mist rolls down from Magoebaskloof most summer mornings, and in Tzaneen the result is a damp, warm valley where mould is the enemy of upholstery. Couches and dining chairs in farmhouses around Politsi, Letsitele and Duiwelskloof often come in with mildew under the cushions or rusted springs, and the fix is new foam, a breathable fabric and a good clean. The avocado, mango and citrus farms keep trimmers busy with bakkie and tractor seats, while guesthouses in Haenertsburg and lodges on the road towards Hoedspruit want patio cushions, dining seats and game drive vehicle benches. Nkowankowa and Lenyenye have home upholsterers working on lounge suites. Supplies often come from Polokwane, so a special order can take a few days.
Typical upholstery fabric requests in the area come from:
- Restaurants, hotels, guesthouses and lodges: high rub count, fire-retardant cloth for guesthouse lounges, restaurant booths and bar stools
- Homeowners and tenants: a family couch, dining chair seats or a headboard in a colour that suits the lounge
- Car, bakkie and taxi owners: automotive cloth and faux suede for seat inserts, door cards and kombi bench seats
Local tips for Tzaneen
Asked for most in Tzaneen: mould-damaged couches, farm bakkie seats, lodge and guesthouse cushions. Where the workshops are: workshops in Tzaneen's industrial area and town centre, home upholsterers in Nkowankowa. A useful tip: ask for mould treatment and a breathable fabric if the piece stays on a stoep.
Upholstery Fabric usually suits couches, chairs, headboards and cushions. The job: cut off the roll by the metre. For restaurants, hotels, guesthouses and lodges, the biggest group here, that usually means high rub count, fire-retardant cloth for guesthouse lounges, restaurant booths and bar stools. On the climate side: warm, humid and misty summers bring mould and rust; strong sun on stoeps fades fabric.
